I mean even his supporters know he's no Christian. Why bother?
Also... biblical Mary's "birthday" is a thing? I thankfully did not know that.

Wow. Biden Administration better get on this. People have lost their goddam minds.

Holy shit he mocked Trump's hand gesture. I am the biggest fan. And as they said before she picked this goddam gem, you can tell a lot about a Presidential nominee by who they pick for Veep. Obama, Biden, now Harris knocking it out of the ballparkwith their Veep picks. Let's send the Republicans into the wilderness for a generation. They've earned this shunning. How dare they desecrate our constitution.

What the fuck? Trump amplified this??
There aren't enough vile racists in this country (there are too many, but still) for this to make sense as an election strategy so we have to conclude that Trump in the bunker thinks he's going to start a race war. Fucking idiots.

I observed when Obama was first elected that both the far left and the far right assumed a black man would be a radical, when he clearly ran as a center-left Democrat. Obviously Harris is getting the same treatment. Only difference is that the center of Demomcratic politics has, in fact, shifted left.
Wrapping it up Rep. Sylvia Garcia of Texas. "Democracy is a gift that we pass on to the next generation."
Inspiring words! LFG
Now Ken Stribling on pensions and how the Biden/Harris Administration protected union pensions. An activist for the Teamsters.
I'm on the Seniors for Kamala Harris call right now. I'm on the low end of the "Senior" range but myself and my friends are getting ready to retire and MAGA and Trump and the GOP are gunning for Social Security and Medicaire. Doug Emhoff and his parents are on and they're great.
Oh cool now some older celebs are up. Richard Chamberlain. Boy, I wondered if I belonged on a Seniors call but I remember his heyday as an actor in many mini series... so I guess I do belong here.
Kids: "miniseries" were the "limited series" of the 70's. Rep Clyburn was the opener btw...
Oh and the Sha na na guy Bowzer will be leading us old folks in phone banking on Wednesdays!
Now on the Seniors for Harris call a guy from the Alliance for Retired Americans says Harris had a 100% rating by their organization for her pro-Senior voting record when she was in the Senate.
The most beautiful aspect of the Olympics is the sport's ethic. Respect, comraderie, friendliness, fairness, support, even at such high-stakes levels of competition. Politicians could learn a lot from these athletes. We all could.

Oh how exciting!!! There's hope for Venezuela!
Freedom!
Rats abandoning ship already? That was fast. First Musk: "I didn't say $50mm a month!" Now they've lost Thiel?
Boy these tech gods-in-their-own-minds are really unreliable friends. Oh that's right. Narcissists don't make friends.
They all deserve each other.
I've seen a Black-identified account recently mention a high level of racist posts in their timeline, but I couldn't see it. Recently I started using the option on some posts to message only the account mentioned (when it's something sensitive like "hey, you might want to use alt-text"). I only just realized that's what's happening: bad actors are using this feature for various types of harassment. Something you folks might want to think about. @Gargron
Nope. It has to be Harris. Black voters and women are the base of this party. I was on a Biden phone bank training and it was 60% Women and 40% black volunteers. They don't hand it to Harris it's game over.
This is very easily explained by the fact that most average citizens in the US and EU are not terribly informed about international relations and the stakes of capitulation and so when asked the misleading question:"Would you like the war to end?" They say, "Yeah, sure".
And then Russian disinformation agents, some of who are - ahem - present on this platform use these false numbers in a disinformation campaign.
See how that works?
Hang in there. Follow folks. There aren't any algorithms driving accounts into your timeline here. No algorithms trying to tweak your dopamine receptors either. So it's intentional. Follow accounts that interest you. But it's a coop, of a sort. So learn the group's rules and norms and you'll love it here.

Exactly. It's still door knocking, phone banking, donating.... whatever each of us can do. Whenever a friend expresses high anxiety or fear of the situation I always say "This year it's not enough just to vote. You have to do something else, no matter how small."
Got kicked off twitter before I could quit in disgust. Business advisor, #Democrat, native Californian. I hate Vladimir Putin with the heat of a thousand suns. #WeAreNAFO. Going to be more mellow on Mastodon, I promise. FYI I have blocked DMs to avoid bots. If you are a human, find another way to message me.
