Biden uses feisty State of the Union to contrast with Trump, sell voters on a second term

Reply in thread

Look. I don’t support vaporizing Gazans and I also feel rather impotent to do anything about it. I also think things are broken and our county needs some major systemic changes to give power back to the people.

And I support the ‘uncommitted’ vote in the primary to send a clear message to Biden.

But don’t kid yourself with this ‘both sides are the same’ stuff.

Biden will, at the very, very least, try to reduce suffering where he can. And that may be pathetically little.

But this is the other side that WILL come to power if you (and I mean you) don’t vote for Biden this fall:

Macbook Pro battery draining overnight

It’s telling you right on screen. Battery service recommended.

Means the battery’s shot. They don’t last forever.

Google how to replace it yourself, see if you’re up for it. If not, find a service to do it. Doesn’t have to be (probably shouldn’t be) the Apple Store. You’re LOONG out of warranty.

I just want to give up but I can't tell anyone

Idk if I’m the right one to help here…

But don’t take a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Maybe the 101st job will come through. Maybe your new bff is going to appear tomorrow. Idk.

The thing I do know is that nothing is permanent. Good or bad. Except death. Options are spiraling out into the future in front of you and this, too, shall pass.

Appreciate your past self - they overcame a lot to get you here.

Forgive your current self - they’re doing their best in trying times.

And trust your future self to make the best of what times come next.

How the heck do you give you cat a pill?

Reply in thread

This is the way.

I do this every night with 2 pills. I just did it 3 minutes ago, in fact.

Lay cat in lap. Grab head and kinda hold/lightly pinch cheeks with left hand. With right hand force your fingers pinching the pill into the back of the throat. Push it as far back as quickly as you can with your pointer finger. Hold him to make sure it gets swallowed.

Apologize and give him a little scratch and kiss.

Trump suffers teleprompter trauma at a rally in Ohio

Reply in thread

I hate Trump so very deeply. There is nothing redeeming about him or what he’s done to this country.

That being said, at least this quote you shared (the article is paywalled) is very obviously Turd saying that Biden’s vote totals beat Obama’s, from their respective elections, in swing states. But did not beat Obama’s numbers in non-swing states.

He’s trying to imply that this is proof that there was election rigging in those swing states and that’s the reason Biden’s totals exceed Obama’s previous totals.

I don’t think it makes those of us who ducking hate Turd look like we have a strong case when we willfully misread what a reasonable person can tell Turd was trying to say and then say it’s evidence that Turd is demented.

Trump IS a demented racist fraud. I hope he chokes to death on this KFC while I’m typing this…. But let’s make a stronger case with actually demented statements and not refuse to understand what’s in plain sight here.
