Apparently Republicans are losing their minds today about the fact that women have the right to vote for whomever they choose.

Probably their AI sucked up your comment here on Mastodon and consumed 100,000 gallons of water to make the decision to promote the video.

@mastodonmigration @elduvelle Gotta hard agree here. A proper cup of light roasted Ethiopian coffee is amazing. Espresso beans don't have to be good because the roast is so intense.
And to the actual point, I have to point out that your vote in TX is only partially private. We have those tiny partitions, but then you have to carry your ballot to the ballot box and it's nearly impossible for people to not see who you voted for.

@mastodonmigration @KamalaHarrisWin According to a voter #turnout study I happened to read today, in 2020 SEVENTY SIX PERCENT of Florida voters thought it was possible for others to determine how they had voted. For this reason alone it is good to inform people their #SecretBallot really is secret.

@VampiresAndRobots what do you mean people can see it? You don't put the ballot in an envelope to transport it to the ballot box? @mastodonmigration

@VampiresAndRobots @mastodonmigration and I guess I need to taste this "special coffee" that is neither espresso nor americano, I have no idea what you're all talking about! Does it have a name?
-
Yes, its called 'coffee.' Sometimes 'brewed coffee' or 'fresh brewed coffee.' to distinguish it from espresso drinks.
It is generally made in a 'coffee machine' which is different from an espresso machine, basically just a big filter basket filled with grounds that hot water passes through, but not compressed or packed like an espresso machine (below). Lately all the rage is 'pour over coffee which is produced a cup at a time: https://counterculturecoffee.com/blogs/counter-culture-coffee/guide-to-pour-over-coffee

@mastodonmigration @KamalaHarrisWin be sure to do the youtube algorithm thing -- view it to the end, click the like button, maybe even subscribe to their channel for the next week. Click like on the first few comments you see that don't suck.

@mastodonmigration @VampiresAndRobots oh yes I see. Yeah I'm not a fan of that type of coffee (it just tastes too mild for me) but maybe I'm just not using the right coffee beans!
At the moment I have the Italian type at home but I don't think it makes great coffee, I'd rather have an espresso machine, but they are too expensive... And also if I had one I'd just be drinking coffee all the time which would be very bad for my sleep.

@mastodonmigration I love how all the comments are, how dare you imply Republicans are like that, while all the notable Republicans speaking out are proving that they are exactly like that.

Right?! They are twisting themselves into pretzels. That's what happens when you basically live a dishonest disingenuous existence. Reality trips you up.

Hmmmm
. That is a pretty common reaction from Europeans who have not really experienced good American coffee. Would encourage you to keep an open mind and next time you are over here seek out a good coffee shop, they are everywhere, and order a regular drip black coffee 16oz. It may take a few times to get over your espresso bias, but you will be hooked. Goes great with a chocolate chip cookie.

@mastodonmigration @CharJTF @jnye @KamalaHarrisWin 'some' men.

@Moodre @CharJTF @jnye @KamalaHarrisWin
Indeed. Some men. Far too many.
