Mentally swapping the urge to be hydrated for the urge to be full was a game changer for me, and I wish there was one cool trick I could share but it was trial and error for me.

First thing that came to mind.

Oh fucking bravo.

Conversely, store precious calories while we can?

Get it together, Florida

Lemmings on MS DOS. I think it was DOS, I was like 10.

I have learned so much about shitposting from this single post.

At this point in the season, with these standings, I am hard pressed to disagree with you.

As a Cubs fan, I feel a clear, strong sense of completely unearned vindication.

Just as the founders envisioned.

Oh yeah? Where are they hosing him down?

Party of freedom.

At various times over the last 10 years there have been different versions of the satirical "ANY FUNCTIONING ADULT" for president yard signs and bumper stickers, and we thought we were joking, but how true it is.

And it's amazing how little function it takes to make a difference. Like, cognitive function, for instance, turns out to be really refreshing in a potential world leader.

I have to say I found this to look ugly and dated when it first came out. Now I'm kinda feeling it. Cute little wheels.

No shit he isn't to be trusted, but that's not why Asheville made his campaign pay in advance. So why do a story on that when there are a million actual things he and his campaign are doing or planning to do to prevent a free and fair election? Why write a story that makes it seem like we need to reach?

It's irresponsible journalism and the comment I replied to (which was the top comment 7 hours ago, if I may steal a moment to acquaint you with the concept of the passage of time) rightfully drew attention to that fact.

MAGA is planning to steal this election if they can't win it. We need more column-inches on that and less of this petty non-story shit, even if it makes us feel good.

And that makes me a Trump Supporter. Check your media literacy.

That is a list of disgusting America hating criminals and all patriots should revile their names as long as they live.

Glad this is the top comment. I really dislike headlines like this. Why be manipulative when DJT is a seemingly bottomless well of actual things to be angry about?

What I expect to happen is this:

• Donald will double down on the only strategy he knows, and will chew his way through a series of increasingly brief campaign managers whilehe tunes out while he leans into personality attacks and conspiracy theories, galvanizing his MAGA core and alienating an increasing share of Republicans
• He will continue to chase moderates towards Kamala, expanding into the right, eventually even to include a small handful of politically savvy MAGA types compelled to denounce him to save face
• Election night is a drubbing in the popular vote with record turnout and a similar map to 2020 with maybe even one or two new blue states
• Donald will trot out a litany of accusations of interference and refuse to concede, his base will further contract
• MAGA protests will quickly turn violent and Donald's refusal to denounce his few remaining supporters will pretty much sever MAGA from what's left of Republicans
• a few MAGA election officials delay certifying anywhere possible, exhausting all legal and some illegal means of avoiding certification
• At least one or two of these delays will result in a standoff between county and state government or even state and federal
• All of this likely set against a backdrop of sporadic but increasing violence and rioting by the remaining hardest of the hard core MAGA, with right wing militias playing a large role and even intervening on behalf of at least one of the aforementioned standoffs at one point or another

I'd be curious which of those elements you find to be the most far fetched. I know in their totality they sound like a crazed paranoid rant, but given our recent history, and the insane trajectory we are on, this doesn't really seem like that big of a stretch to me.

I had the identical reaction. Thanks OP for posting this repellent screenshot. So glad I changed my defaults.

This campaign is claws out and I fucking love it.
