Every four years Jill Stein emerges from her burrow. If she sees her shadow, it will be four more years of fascism.

She’s trying to unify the Dem voter base in preparation of 2028

Hopefully she’s trying to unify the base in preparation for 2026. However, we’d probably all be better off if we abandoned the Democratic party in favor of a real progressive party that puts the needs of individuals over the desires of corporations and billionaires.

My personal desktop machine is a Linux box I assembled from $500 worth of parts about 14 years ago. I’ve increased RAM and added about 8TB of storage for an Emby instance.

It still manages to get the job done, but it is obviously way, way, WAY overdue for replacement. We’ve been struggling financially for about 25 years.

Now I’m thinking I need to finally pull the trigger and get it done before January.

I do that with our guinea pigs.

They get a cookie* every day at 5:00 pm when I get finished with work. After 5:00, whether l come in the back door or just come downstairs from my office, they start wheaking and chewing on the bars of their pen (which they think encourages us to give them food for some reason).

Sometimes, after I’ve given them their cookie, I’ll go back up to my office. When I come back, they start acting like they didn’t get the cookie.

I just walk up to them and tell them that they already got it and they aren’t getting another. They stare at me for a moment, then just go back about their business.

I don’t think they actually forget they they got it. I think they just hope I might have forgotten. But it is interesting that all they need me to do is tell them they got it already and they give up.

* The cookie is a vitamin C supplement made of pressed hay with molasses as a binder. The molasses is why they lose their minds over them.

The terrorists in the middle east depend on the West not having the stomach to kill women and children.

Tell me if there will be any terrorists left in Gaza after Israel kills every man, woman, and child.

I’d say at this point the left’s response, if they want to stop the decline of the country, is to abandon the Democratic party and form a new party that actually puts the needs of the 99% above the needs of the 1%.

Communism and Socialism have no chance in the US, but a social democrat is probably pretty close to what the majority of Americans want.

Of course, I’m not talking about a group that only surfaces once every four years. The presidency shouldn’t even be a thought. Instead, we need a progressive party, dedicated to people, and working at the local and state level to fix what we can there.

It worked in the middle east because the government had to avoid offending the sensibilities of the American people. Imagine how it would go if the American people had been indoctrinated completely into a fascist hate frenzy.

That would never happen in America, of course ( /s ). However, imagine what war with America would be like with a fascist government firmly in control.

Imagine what would happen to the minority of civilians who would engage in revolt?

The fact is the U.S. is still a democracy. If there were enough people to win in a fight against the government, they could just vote in who they want. As much as it makes me sick to say it, that’s what they just did.

Don’t forget all the American lives yet to be sacrificed!

Waco & Ruby Ridge.

People don’t forget. They just get their asses handed to them when they try.

How the hell is Jim Bob going to fight the federal government with his AR-15 when the government can drop a missile on him from a remote control drone?

For a little while at least.

Because it’s an economic issue, and the people who voted for Trump are just really, really stupid.

Republicans don’t think their opponents are human, let alone American.

That’s inaccurate.

Jill Stein was never an option and intended to help make what is happening in Gaza worse.

If the electoral college had worked as intended, Trump would not have won in 2016*.

So, yeah, get rid of it. It’s not working anyway.

• You could, of course, consider the attitudes and biases of the founding fathers and come to the conclusion that they would have preferred to see a man win instead of a woman. However, I don’t think that’s fair. Even in their lifetimes they were shifting their views based on their experiences. If you are going to ask them what they would do today, then you have to give them the benefit of having experienced the events of the last 248 years. You have to assume they would have continued to grow.

“He was never nice to the Obamas,” said The Hill opinion writer Tara Dublin. “He also looks & sounds like he died last week but no one wants to tell him.”

Looks, sounds, and by all accounts smells like he died last week.

As long as the store isn’t a 24x7 operation, at some point they will want to close. If you’re still there, they’ll ask you what you want.

At that point, you panic and run home.

Hopefully the current president won’t be as pathetic as the one who was in the Whitehouse the last time the fascists tried to overthrow the government.
