As a millennial, by far the most jarring experience I’ve had is watching the culture and country shift from a relatively homogenous, masculine, White, Christian country to whatever the fuck we have now
There is a cruelty in living so close to a golden age, which you can almost feel. To see what mankind could become, and then watch it be held hostage by those too small to imagine it.
An obese idiot proudly saving their local abandoned parking lot from being turned into a local money-printing machine is a perfect metaphor for what the country did last Tuesday.
I'm begging Jensen Huang to reconcile with his wife. we cannot afford another billionaire ex-wife entering her "I'm going to fix society by funding its most annoying people" era
And now I’m here on Oxford Street, London on my way to this morning’s photoshoot and admiring the newly installed allahu akbarriers, just in time to keep Christmas shoppers safe from Muslims with mental health issues who want to drive into pedestrians and kill them.
This is pretty much my base case at this point. It will sound way too tin foil hatty to almost everyone, but it’s the only logical explanation I’ve been able to come up with. These margins make zero sense otherwise.
Why am I getting the feeling that they intentionally let ALL of the fraud happen, making the numbers look shockingly unrealistic?
You know how they always stop, prevent and catch a lot of fraud happening in real time, then still lose by a small margin because the fraud is that extensive.
What if….they just let it all go so they’d cheat BIG, making it look blatantly obvious..to even the sheepiest of sheep?
What if?

Man I could have wrote this myself. I'm also a professional gambler, primarily sports (basketball and baseball) but enjoy and do well with elections. I lost A LOT last night, primarily on Republicans holding the Senate.
I'm in the exact same boat, this is driving me crazy and makes zero sense to me. I could have accepted a small Dem win, but these margins aren't adding up. I just don't believe that many people flipped.
This is more anecdotal evidence rather than just data, but the fundraising differences, the USAID money faucet being shut off, Dems running extremist candidates, the fraud crackdowns (even without the SAVE Act) and the general vibe/culture shift all pointed me towards a comfortable Senate hold and 50/50 odds on the House.
Maybe I've just been in the Twitter echo chamber, but the same process in 2024 gave me similar confidence in an easy Trump win. Something's off.
If you stay home tomorrow, you’re giving us a Keisha in Georgia, a Mohamed in Michigan, a Covid Death Doctor in Ohio, a vegan trans loving weirdo in Texas, a fraud in Alaska, and so on.
That’s unforgivable.
Get off your high horse and vote.
I’m not voting because Republicans have earned my vote.
I’m voting to buy our country enough time to replace the Republicans who don’t deserve my vote with Republicans who do.
If Democrats retake control of even one chamber, it’s game over.
Vote like your nation’s survival depends on it — because it does 🗳️
