      Try not to touch your facemask while wearing it, as it may have covid particles on the frontside.

      Holding your nose implies poor safety measures for the pandemic.

      Also fuck voting for someone who is against everything you want and runs entirely on "at least I'm not thaaat guy"

    The other 42% of Biden voters say "Look, fat, when you get up in the morning you gotta put your shoes on one leg at time, and, look, here's the thing, we cannot defeat, excuse me, we must defeat the other Biden. Now I don't believe in social-whatsits, hard work and CEOs built this nation, and if dying from tuberculosis was good enough for your granddaddy, it's good enough for you. And I'm gonna reach across the aisle and bring Republicans in to do good work with us. Now, listen, I know some people say Republicans can't be reformed, but look at my good friends Hillary and Liz - they used to be Republicans and look at them now! And George W. Bush and Mitt Romney, why, they're practically Democrats, wouldntcha say? Don't say 'malarky' to me! Malarky for all, and to all a good night!"

    Lol I saw the r/politics thread and everyone was saying " of course, I could never like anyone more than I hate doldnad bumpf" and things to that effect. Just working overtime not to acknowledge the shit situation they're in.

    The pessimist in me realizes that we are also witnessing the dems banking entirely on electoral norms to remove trump, given that the rest of their norms-affirming chances and machinations were largely shrugged off by the Trump admin. It's one of the last feathers in their cap. Biden is bland and uninspiring but he is normal (at least for their purposes) but he doesn't need to inspire because returning to normal, to idealize the past, are all counter-inspirational at their core.

        When you make a post you can choose which community it goes to. Stop picking main, start picking electoralism.
