      Under the reign of Crowley we will use AI data centres to generate thanksgiving for all!

      I wonder when the “I’m voting 3rd party” bot farms kick into full gear. Already seeing it from a couple accounts that have posting histories without politics before recently.

      Leftists are pissed at Bernie for not endorsing Hong. Can’t believe I’m defending Bernie but they should be thanking him. Hong was a near certain loser in the general. Would have set back their movement.

      Cool cool, my son hates being put in his bassinet. This was not a welcome development. Do I just power through and let him cry it out?

      Hong talked about the whiteness of her mixed race child and the state immediately flipped to the black guy. What did the primary voters mean by this?

      My boyfriend is gonna be running the cellphone repair shop all by himself today 🥺

      I can’t even look at my local sub anymore because of the frequent rescue cat adoption posts. I can’t take them, it makes me cry 😢

      Starting work with a manga company today, should I pitch them my Keiko Fujimori magical girl shojo?

      It turns out there is some reason to be skeptical of the “NIMBY Harry Potter fans got an electrical cable re-routed” claim.

      The ultimate source of the whole thing is a 2-minute section from a podcast, which the BBC seems to have written up uncritically. No one can find the BBC Wales interview, nor is there any contemporaneous evidence (this would have been around 2019) of some sort of “save Dobby’s grave” campaign that would be necessary for hundreds of phone calls. It’s likely that the person misremembered the event.

      The most plausible scenario is that there was a BBC Wales broadcast that included a portion of the beach with Dobby’s grave on it and people found his name and called in concern, but it doesn’t seem to have been a real issue given that the cable was never going to run through it anyway.

      Hong’s unexpected defeat proves that a lot of Leftists online need a massive reality and humility check.

      1. You’re not as popular as you think you are.

      2. It turns out you *don’t* actually have the secret sauce to win elections in purple/swing states.

      All of these polling errors makes me wonder if Platner was really up by that much in the Maine primary before Mills dropped out.

      **Do NOT face David Crowley alone when Astral projecting**

      Today while astral projecting I summoned David Crowley to try and weaken him so our hexing spells would work better.
      He is so fucking powerful. I’m not at a power level to do this alone. I barely escaped with my life and I’m spiritually injured to a great amount, but I think I’ll make it.
      I can’t imagine what he would do to a new, unsuspecting witch. I’m scared that I will have to face him again soon if I ever want to continue astral projecting. I’m currently burning healing incense and drawing spiritual energy from my crystals to try and heal as quickly as possible.
      Please be safe everyone. David Crowley is much stronger than I first imagined and we will have to do this together if we want to slay a god.

      Crowley’s upset is just greater proof of how fucking bad Schumer et al. are at picking their fucking standard bearers. The polling has been way underestimating the moderate lane candidates in these primaries.

      Mills? Stevens? Really? Cmon bruh. Talk about missing a fucking t-ball.
