A US Election Thread Where We Will Be Nice to One Another (but not to seditionists)

Driving a Jeep, not standing on the bridge of a ship, I hope.

+1 to all of what Oro said, basically.

Man, that is some heavy consequentialism.

Personally, I view the essential requirement of consequentialism is for an advocate to come pre-loaded with the exact point in which ends stop justifying the means. To know their line in the sand. And the knowledge that someone else’s line may extend beyond what they themselves are comfortable with.

The razor blades on the Trump election sign is either a viscous act, or a moral calling.

Ask me no questions, I’ll tell you no lies. :wink:

Today I learned that there are cervidae on the sea. Are they mermaid-ish?

Has anyone else seen this sign? I just saw it in a yard today. :rofl:. Although I think they combed his hair the wrong direction?

I know in Puget Sound deer swim island to island and occasionally get picked off by killer whales…

No. They are drowned rat-ish. But still fucking kicking.

To be fair, I’m still not 100% sure which direction his hair goes, and I’ve seriously tried to figure it out.

Y’all does anyone know why my mail in ballot has been “in transit” for so long? I googled to see what was up with this, but it didn’t turn up much and I’m stressing.

Have you checked with your country’s supervisor of elections office? Ours has a very active/up to date facebook.

No, but great idea - I’ll call them tomorrow. It’s been “in transit” for 12 days.

Seconding checking with county elections office for questions about voting – they’ll be able to give you very exact answers.

And if anyone has CA questions, hit me up, I’m a poll clerk here and can help you figure stuff out.

Mine is ready to go, and husband is almost done with his, but we’re dropping them off tomorrow. The recent rains have a little section of the driveway / road in He worked on earlier in the week turned into mud soup, and it will fare better if we don’t drive on it today.

Doing some extra catchup. I am definitely fully fucking alarmed. I don’t like where our nation is at all right now, on pretty much any political side.

I don’t have good ideas on fixing it except for pushing back personally on people I know who are fully in the radicalized side of things – privately, politely, and fully knowing it could lose me plenty of friendships. It’s… yeah. I don’t like it.
