Whether you’re left, right, or center, focus on becoming ungovernable.
If you build up your local community and supporting institutions, and commit to ignoring unjust laws, you can greatly minimize the degree to which anything at the federal level impacts you.
This involves a lot of self sufficiency and privacy efforts that many are resistent to because of the loss of convenience, but it is well worth it.
Take a look at Harris’ last several poll numbers. And that’s with nobody drawing attention to her. She wouldn’t need any help from Republicans to lose.
Little bit of inside baseball here. One challenge is they would have to pick a new candidate prior to the convention, in order to meet the filing deadline to get listed on the Ohio ballot. It is not likely they win Ohio if people have to write them in. So they can’t just go to a brokered convention and hash it out in realtime.
Secondarily, per campaign finance regulations, they cannot just dump the ticket and then transfer the campaign cash to a new slate of candidates. If Biden were to step down, they’re stuck with Harris, otherwise they cannot use that money. If they somehow convince both to step aside, they have to raise all new money to finance the rest of the campaign, and the time between the convention and the actual election is not a lot of time to raise money (let alone use it wisely).
Gonna give it a shot. Can’t be any worse than the default Android Keeb
Pathways into Darkness also came out the same year as Doom but few seem to remember it.
Plus my understanding is, the way campaign financing works, the Biden-Harris campaign funds stay with that org. They can’t transfer it to an entirely new ticket. If she stays on and he drops out, they could use it, otherwise they’d have to fundraise from scratch.
Their internal polling must be ugly AF to necessitate this.
MetalJesusRocks for some “hidden gems” type of content.
MVG for technical or development deepdives.
Karl Jobst for speedrunning content.
Retrogamecorps, Taki Udon, Wulff Den, and ETA Prime for emulation.
All those channels cover various content besides just N64, but they’ve made some of the best N64 game related content.
Can we also acknowledge how horrible reporting is on major cases and rulings? I’ve seen barely any coverage of Loper Bright and what the headlines say about it is largely inaccurate.
I know the word “rigged” is overused in politics these days but I’m not sure how else to describe the method the RNC and DNC use to select candidates. We have a matchup of historically unpopular individuals who were both President already, and yet most feel as though there was an inevitable quality to each receiving his party’s nomination.
I live in a primary state where party registration is arbitrary and I could have easily participated in the process for either major party (just providing this background lest I be accused of being something I’m not). Problem is, by the time it rolls around to my state, the momentum of previous caucuses and primaries has all but secured the nomination already and my ability to influence the process is effectively zero.
The DNC and RNC have created a system of managed coronation disguised as some sort of democratic process. And what’s worse is they now set the precedent of rigged debates designed to exclude meaningful alternatives. If they have a second debate they’ll probably make up something about minimum Twitter mentions or shoelace color to purposely exclude RFK and other 3rd party candidates again.
I do enjoy how both Asuka and Misato are posing like they have previous experience as car show booth babes. That tracks.
I just take Marques for what he is - normie entertainment tech channel.
All marketing hype associated with Apple is always to be taken with a grain, nay, a shovel of salt.
I do love having to give a 2 paragraph disquisition of caveats about how I didn’t vote for either major party candidate in 2016 or 2020, before I can make literally any comment on either of these people or the current state of US politics, lest I be downvoted into oblivion or accused of being an evil Repub shill.
Ironically when we do this on Lemmy we are qualifying ourselves to a cohort of mostly people who didn’t vote at all, or aren’t even Americans.
You know it is pretty bad when a bunch of CNN commentators think he got smoked.
If you had done it with a sepia filter, this has “Cowboy Bebop outro” written all over it.
Agree. Not every hobby and common trait is automatically a “community” nor should it be.
The tiny house community
The pickleball community
The eating ass community
etc.
Everyone who works a white collar job for a medium or large company should have access to a 401k or some other investment vehicle but I understand that many can’t afford to fully utilize those benefits even if those benefits are available. The exec class gets richer as their portfolios gain value, as they tend to get compensatory stock. Everyone else takes an “L” to make that happen.
A rank-and-file accountant or developer can still set themselves up for retirement but they have to start early and be extremely aggressive.
I agree that with inflation, there are perverse incentives created. Most peoples jobs do not have any guarantee of annual raises, performance based or cost of living based. Effectively you are taking a pay cut each year due to inflation. This passively makes every company environment worse, because the only way to gain compensation is to jump ship to another job. Those who are capable and motivated will try to parlay every job into a better job within 6 months, and that makes it impossible to build up capabilities and culture. It effectively makes everyones job suck more, whether you stay or leave.
