We’re restarting three mile island for this?

Love her blog, one of the few places that actually bothers to dive into the details of the lower profile races.

Better than a cat-less man-child.

As a Minnesotan I’d like to point out that Walz really isn’t a progressive, however, like Biden, he’s repeatedly shown a willingness to welcome everyone to the table, and (generally) not stand in the way of progressive legislation, even when he personally doesn’t agree, so definitely not the worst choice. But I say double down on minority women, nominate lieutenant governor Peggy Flanagan instead, let’s get the first native woman in the White House!

I actually switched to Ubuntu full-time way back in 2006 when I went back to school (anthro major), specifically to help me focus when using my computer and not get distracted by playing video games. Of course, nowadays with wine and proton on steam, that might not be as effective. But it worked well for me, never experienced any issues with word docs opening in libre office (or rather open office back then) or vice versa. There was once or twice where I had to use a computer in the lab in the library to run some niche program or another for an assignment, but not a big deal.

we’ve been weakening in that regard over the last decade

That’s the thing, we really haven’t. 2016 got a lot of press because Trump lost by the narrowest margin since Bush vs Gore, but if you look at the actual vote totals, Trump didn’t do any better than the last 4 Republicans, slightly worse than Romney and Bush in 2004, in fact. The only reason it was as close as it was was due to the terrible turnout by Dems for Hillary in 2016. 2020 results were back in line with the norm, with Biden winning by 7+ points. So don’t believe the media’s click bait hype, Minnesota is not and never was in play. (Of course, that doesn’t mean we don’t need to vote, and don’t forget the down ballot races, which are arguably more important. And have you all voted in your primary yet? Early voting is open, election day is August 13th)

Better than Strange Brew?

god was just trying to get Judean citizenship this whole time, and we accidentally made a religion out of it. Whoopsie doodle.

Alternate perspective: Minnesota’s new Uber and Lyft law just cements their duopoly in place

Wait, so he’s admitting hunter’s laptop is a hoax? Or is his ephedrine addled brain having trouble keeping track of all of the lies?

The fuck is the “laptop from hell”?

And this:

After the Reformer reached out to White’s campaign requesting comment, he replied to this reporter directly on X, saying “You’re a cuck. We’re leaving the plantation… You and your weird liberal buddies read it and weep.”

Sounds like serotonin syndrome, possibly from NBOMes ?

This is what I get for not reading the Terms of Service…

Wow, that last article was really interesting. I’d always heard legends of the unionization attempts in the 90s, cool to have the context of a zine by and for field techs from that time. I’ll have to spend some time on my next day off going through the archives (ten ten-hour days in a row, but apparently still not enough to be considered a “professional” archaeologist, let alone get health insurance!)

“…and this just in: Votey McVoteface wins by a 473 point margin?”

Let them know that tofurkey deli slices make great substitutes for the ham. I’m especially a fan of the peppered ones. They’re a little thin, so might want to double up.
