Ideally, I’d just make dumb jokes & laugh at stupid toy pictures. Be warned, if you have barely any posts and/or have terrible politics, I will block you.
@ToyBoxComix Something I commissioned that you might like. The nameless Diaclone unused triple changer. Had 3 names in IDW, but they’re kinda garbage. Asked for name Switchblade after MASK vehicle
@wtfahhh0 She makes constant trips off planet, where there’s no yellow sun. It’s how she was drunk in the end credits scene. No yellow sun, & Kryptonians are squishy like humans
@THEBigMikeT@anthonyzenkus And make the best of bad choices. Denying that we’re stuck with 2 party politics, just has made things worse. Bouncing between parties isn’t getting us anything.
@THEBigMikeT@anthonyzenkus The best scenario we can hope for, is that solid blue voting in the general locks out Rs long enough for them to legitimately change, or collapse. We could also improve our primary game & organize. Sadly, to make any progress we need to be more machiavellian
@anthonyzenkus Compromising some things for others that matter to them. It’s easy to criticize them, since they’re entirely too human & subject to some of our worst flaws. However, they’re more trustworthy than the party that walks lockstep of a cliff.
@anthonyzenkus That’s the stupidest conclusion you could have reached. Ds are much more politically diverse than most parties. Hence why it’s like herding cats, even when they’re in charge. Yes, there’s some ppl just in it for the money. Others see taking money as trading favors.
@LeftyWinter This works at the city level, because NYC has a significant amount of resources to work with. However, we can’t lose sight of the fact that it takes a lot more at the Federal level
@shift_in2_turbo Dean got increased funding after the Dean scream, I believe. Obama after his pastor as well. Obama spent the money wisely to get out of the narrative bubble.
@DrJillStein We currently aren’t engaged in Lebanon. So many dismissed it for those reasons. Also, the Plurality voting system is why we’re a 2 party state. You only ever grab leftists voters, weakening the Ds, giving the Rs an easier fight.
@WajahatAli Doesn’t like Platner, but the media is giving them cart blanch. They have 2 different standards for R & D faces, and especially hate Progressives. They chased Dean out over a microphone that filters out background noise.
@WajahatAli Maybe, maybe not. The media loves attacking Ds. It helped depress Hillary’s vote, got Al Franken to resign, and forced Biden out. They tried to knock out Obama, but he was smart enough to buy air time to break out of their narrative bubble. Yes, the establishment…
@LucasSa56947288 Eh, it’s more that they’re piling on along with other elements. It’s the media that’s hammering things & giving Ds an echo chamber.
Ok I’ve just read the Platner story. It is built entirely on the claims of a Heritage staffer whose accusations lack even one shred of contemporaneous corroborating evidence. Two other women Platner dated felt dissed, but that’s all.
The NYT is running oppo for Collins.
@em_Lazzy Sadly, that isn’t the case. The Federal Government was designed to be a boondoggle where it’s hard to get anything done. The adoption of the filibuster only made it significantly worse. NYC is wealthy enough that it gives Zohran significant more control than most Mayors
