This is going to sound really stupid, but he's the first thing I've ever boycotted. I haven't read a single Dilbert strip since I found out he's a fucking idiot.

Yeah, it's stupid.

Wow. I had no idea who Scott Adams was. I just wanted a quick headline to burst dimejinky's bubble so that he wouldn't get his hopes up for the US midterms.

I should have just posted this video of tree_ getting interviewed instead:

I’ve no doubt the youth vote has been energised and activated on both sides.
I just have a hard time believing the ones that ‘relate’ to Trump and this piss poor GOP candidates are as numerous and caught up with what’s happening as the regular kid just turned voting age and the admittedly god awful millennial crowd, the most apathetic and spoiled generation ever seen since the fall of Rome.

Hopefully they will turn up this week and previously apathetic / despairing voters too.


Just look at what’s happened this week. Trumps playing endgame tactics. Looks like he’s finally listening to his staff and they have nothing they can do but play the Iran / Caravan fear card. There’s nowhere else to go for him.

I’ve got to hand it to the republicans in TN. Every day for the past week and multiple times over the past few months, we’ve gotten mailers and flyers campaigning for the republicans running. Yesterday and today, we received two. We’ve not gotten the first thing from a single democratic candidate this whole campaign season. Not. One. Thing.

That sounds a lot like what it's like to leave the 610 loop surrounding downtown Houston and drive five hours through the state to see the in-laws. About two miles before you leave the city, the distance between Beto signs widens and widens until they all just disappear. Then it's nothing but churches, storage lots and Whataburgers all the way down.

There was a lone Krystal Burger in the north part of town, but it closed years ago. Nearest burger like that I can think of would be the Krystal in the French Quarter.
