Hell yeah we did. We often do the right thing when faced with a direct democratic clear choice.
We went for Obama twice and trump twice. It’s complicated. We’re mostly just extremely gerrymandered and divided. Columbus is extremely liberal, rural Ohio is frequently terrifyingly conservative
I get that, unfortunately my hard to spell name is my last name and I liked it too much to change it. I also didn’t realize that my common name has so many spellings, but by fuck do a lot of people insist on proving that. I also just like having a name that doesn’t instantly draw people’s attention, especially since my last name does.
My middle name on the other hand is fucking ridiculous, but it’s easy to spell so there’s that.

Going to give a less well known book here, but figure some of Lemmy would appreciate it. Wrath Goddess Sing is a good book made amazing by a narrator who was actively working with the author.
Even when the author coached the narrator? I know of at least one audiobook where the author used the narrator’s voice to fill in what words on paper couldn’t
Ooh I’ll have to try it. I loved the paper books
The state he ended with gets to give us our monarch. I hope he didn’t end with Albany
So many of us have a ridiculous name. I kept mine to my middle name, but so many don’t, so I can just fully embrace someone deciding she’s talking great grandma’s name and damn the consequences
Is no pedophilia one of the commandments?

As a trans woman, fuck yeah Mildred. Take that awful name and make it your own. Sure you could’ve been a Megan or a Maria or even a McKenzie, but anyone could pull those off. You chose Mildred to flex on us plebs
You clearly don’t live in America

Yeah without the singular they your English is bad. Sucks for non native speakers but it’s how our language works.
The auto industry does
What we really need is an increase in growler culture. I want to be able to bring my own bottle to a shop and have my beer/wine/liquor/soda/whatever dispensed and priced by volume from their keg/cask/dispenser. It was just a thing with beer when I lived in Kentucky and it’s something I wish was more of a thing where I live now. I’m sure it was partly due to their lax alcohol laws, but it was striking to see such an environmentally responsible habit in the heart of coal country
That wouldn’t be an official act as president. What would be an official act as president would be nuking mar a lago, calling a special forces strike on trump, or possibly even getting him sent to Guantanamo
It didn’t need a narrator, but care was taken to ensure a unified voice between author and narrator. Great audiobooks generally strive for something like that where the performance adds rather than detracts
