@EricGymFan@kenklippenstein Hong and other dsa candidates have an advantage in that they believe in things and people who also believe in that are more likely to volunteer for campaigns .
He most likely has no ground game because he stands for nothing. This will apply to the general as well
El-Sayed: Now Mike, I'm just going to remind you: if you don't know how to say the name, keep the name out your damn mouth. Or just call me Abdul. But I got some opinions about his name. See, it's very fitting for him: Rogers.
Cause that's his answer every time a corporation or Donald Trump tells him to do something.
"Mike, we need you to put a data center in the backyard." — "Roger!"
"Mike, we need you to hike their prescription drug prices." — "Roger!"
"Mike, we need you to rubber-stamp this war we shouldn't be fighting." — "Roger!"
"Mike" — and this one's Donald Trump — "I need you to lick these boots." — "Roger!"
And I think—I think I speak for all of us here in Michigan when I say that we are done with Rogers. Go back to Florida where you belong!
@Genesis__Nova@unitNo3113 Grifters to make a quick buck on places like etsy. Its super low overhead so they make bank on the scam because barrier to entry is low.
@lukishirosaki@unitNo3113 I am learning sewing and fell for some of the etsy ai sewing patterns because i had no frame of reference for telling how they are supposed to look or what it costs to make a pattern
@NickPeppermint@unitNo3113 I took up knitting and sewing for this reason. I want something real after spending hours on something. I want the small bragging rights that come with creation.
Pic related is a recreation of the cable sweater fr9m the house of gucci movie i made for a friends birthday
@Acyn "For years now I have heard the word "Wait!" It rings in the ear of every Negro with piercing familiarity. This "Wait" has almost always meant "Never." We must come to see, with one of our distinguished jurists, that "justice too long delayed is justice denied."

@PunishedBambxi@0bNARA Also for wrist support i have some ice pack wrist wraps that i will use if i have pain. Most of my hobbies are bad for my wrists unfortunately.
@PunishedBambxi@0bNARA It is a superwash wool/cashmere blend from robins promise called elderdowns dk in the color crim dell in the moonlight.
It was a gift to myself that i got in person at a fiber fest in ohio last year so it was more than i would normally spend on yarn.
@PunishedBambxi@0bNARA Agreed. I knit and crochet, I think one day it might come close but knowing how the material works is a big part of making things
Current sweater i am working on for reference.
@Bushdiid420@DaveNumber7 I know culture moves faster than ever now, but the fact that nothing has the same staying power as things with a hard deadline is like 90%of why improv comedy sucks. If you have no pressure you wallow in details.
@PunishedBambxi@0bNARA I am not an ai proponent, but not sure this is accurate. Famously you cant *automate* crochet with machinery like knitting because of the unique combination of hand movements and variations in stitches.
Ai makes bs fake patterns though, but i dont see that being the hurdle here
@realCryptoPal@omgsidewalks It was not always like this. When it first started it wasamazing. Could stay in someones house for 1/4 the price of a hotel. I got to go to so many more concerts on the other side of the country because of it for dirt cheap.
Tomorrow is Election Day in Michigan.

It doesn’t matter what the polls say in Michigan. Make sure to actually vote for Abdul. I see it as a generationally powerful opportunity for folks in Michigan. It will shake the shit out of the corporate establishment. And it needs a hell of a shaking.
