Let's pretend for one moment that he does die before the election, just for the funsies. What happens then? Will the nomination revert to option number 2, aka Bernie Sanders? Or will his running mate automatically replace him just the way Vice-President is supposted to step in after the Big Man in the White House chokes on a piece of matzo? Does he even have a running mate yet?
 
Dear politician who makes decisions that affect tens of thousands: Most people your age aren't on Twitter for Christmas. They're instead sitting next to the Christmas tree and agreeing with their child that the action figure the child received is indeed the coolest. But no, keep sitting there with your boxed virtue signal. Maybe you'll get a nice t-shirt with a paragraph of text illegible except in a posed selfie to go along with it.

Also: Just one figure? Cheap. It should come with some secondary figures, like beagles or something.

Secondary figures?

The most vaccinated state in the country has their emergency rooms jam packed with people testing positive for covid with no symptoms.
>Places with Gun control have the most shootings
>Places with High jabs have the most Covid cases
>Said places are also blue

I'm sure there's a lesson to be learned from all of this.
 
This sort of thing makes so mad, god. I almost guarantee these people who buy/sell/want/praise/whatever this sort of trash are the type to complain about pollution, global warming, capitalism, etc. Yet here we are with some cheap plastic toy sealed in cheap plastic and cardboard, wrapped in paper or plastic to then be unwrapped, photographed to be hosted online by a mega corp. while never actually being played with. Its all for virtue points. Who cares if its wasteful? You though? No bitcoin, too wasteful. No space travel, too wasteful. I will restrict your ability to use a certain water pressure in your showers, but I can buy trite garbage to have it shipped to me in one of the most pollution-heavy ways so I can post on Twitter about how you should obey the government.

I don't even find the waste itself that upsetting.. its just the mental gymnastics they have to go through to find it acceptable that switches something in my brain that makes me want to hurt someone.

You summed up why many people hate Funko pops so much.

Are most progs stunted in visual recognition or something? I’m trying to set up a working theory on why so many lefty memes are walls of text now. That’s marginally better than usual but they just had to put that uncle sam poster in and overdo it.

Probably that the first few walls of text were received well, so they made more, which were also received well, then the wall of text meme became linked with the left, so if you were a lefty you had to walloftext.meme to fit in, lest you be ousted as a smelly righty.
 
Yeah, but wouldn't people who care about society and the healthcare system so much that they want to force people to inject mandatory SCIENCE!!! juice, wear masks, and be tracked by the government, at least be considerate enough to think about wasting the resources of an Emergency Room when displaying no symptoms? I mean clearly since they're more educated, they'd be more aware of their impact on the world around them.


Considering the frequency with which I encounter luxury brand and basic bitch upper mid class vehicles that can't even acknowledge signs that say "Left lane for passing only," I'd say likely not.
There was a study that showed that people less concerned about Covid underestimated their chances of catching it, but that people more concerned about Covid vastly overestimated how deadly it was. The numbers were nuts - they thought that if you catch it you have like a 50 percent chance of dying.

Vermont is the most vaccinated state in the country, but it's a liberal state, and liberals are more likely to freak about Covid. They love feeling panicked about it. Related Freddie DeBoer post
