@chris @GottaLaff THIS is what happens when you vote climate-change deniers into office. You can't outbuild or outrun the coming disasters, people. FIX IT NOW or prepare to die. There's no middle ground here.

@mastodonmigration @KamalaHarrisWin Lord, yes! If Michelle Obama is your Mom, you KNOW you're gonna eat right, live right, and mind your gotdamn manners. I love her so much. She NEVER stoops to Trump's level, never. It took him 3 days to respond to her critique, and the only thing he can say is "Nasty." Which describes him to a t, and her, not at all.

@mastodonmigration @KamalaHarrisWin Michelle Obama is my favorite first lady, and my guiding star, now that Rep. John Lewis is gone.

If your ballot was burned in Maricopa County, AZ, here's the information on how to check:

Tomorrow is the LAST DAY you can request a replacement ballot.

@Edent Yes. My bank damn well KNOWS not to call me.

@paninid @Timotei @chris @paul Don't I know it! They're on the verge of letting a power station turn into a giant nuclear explosion in Europe! But there's still hope, and panic never helps, so I'll just keep waiting and watching and working on my little corner of the world.

@paninid @Timotei @chris @paul Nuclear weapons, although given what we've seen on the fields of Ukraine, it might be a motley collection of Potemkin hardware.

@Timotei @chris @paul Once, we had many non-aligned nations independent of Great Powers. Those days are long gone, and the world is far more polarized now. Russia used to seem like an interesting society. Long ago, it turned into a gas station run by thugs armed with bombs. These people let their hate rule their minds, and are now trapped with no way of getting out. Next, we'll hear that the father and any sons have "volunteered" for military service.

@Timotei @chris @paul I don't think Christmas is going to be very merry for them, unless they at least get access to their money. It seems they're living off the state's charity right now.

@chris @paul MASSIVE, and well-earned. They worked hard to turn themselves into hate-filled people who listened to the voices of their false gods to the exclusion of all else. Had they remembered their own Lord's commandment to love their neighbour as themselves, they'd still be in Canada, living on their farm, thriving in their lives.

@paul @chris They're stuck in a country where it's a crime to say anything negative about the government, and their $$$ is stuck in the bank bc they don't speak the language well enough to explain that it's their money. So they can't even LEAVE. I don't feel sorry for them, they let their hate outweigh their sense of self-preservation, but they're stuck in a literal "shithole country" with no money, no access to all the stuff they had before, etc.
