I'm a biostatisitcian who has taught several infectious disease epidemiology classes, and my hick-ass family doesn't treat me like I know what I'm talking about.
Even my actually libertarian parents are voting for RFK Jr. RFK Jr. led the charge of anti vaxxing in Somoa during a measles outbreak. 63 children died. He went into black communties during covid and compared the RNA vaccine to the Tuskeegee experiments. Fuck antivaxxers and fuck RFK.

I think youre right for a lot of people, but conservative values require an out group. If it's not immigrants and transfolk, it's gonna be whomever else they can get people frothing at mouth over. Homeless people, mentally ill, it could be fucking left-handed folk. It's only the othering that matters.

I'm betting they are going to pick Mark Kelly for the contested state, bipartisan track record and and guaranteed Democrat replacement, but I agree Walz is the better pick.

‘Longlegs’ Becomes the Highest-Grossing Indie Horror Film of the Last 10 Years
Reply in thread
This movie had a lot of very talented people working with a terrible script. The acting, editing, sound design, and cinematography were fantastic; the writer(s) and whoever did Cage's make-up were not.
The first half of the movie was pretty great, though
