    I stg every time I have an alarm set, the night before my body just goes “lol nah”. 🫩

    I don’t think Jeremiah Johnson fucks.

    I believe he is capable, I just think he’s suffering from the 40 year old virgin complex and once he takes his Hillary figurines off the mantle he’ll find someone his speed.

    >> [Why the Greens won’t just stick to the environment](https://www.afr.com/politics/why-the-greens-won-t-just-stick-to-the-environment-20250725-p5mhw7)

    > The Greens insist reports of their demise are inaccurate, as their national vote held steady at 12.2 per cent, with a decline in some wealthy areas made up for in improvements in outer-suburban, multicultural and working-class areas.

    So the vote didn’t decline, if you ignore some of the election results. Wwait what?

    >I dissuade Party members from putting down people who do not understand. Even people who are unenlightened and seemingly conservative should be answered in a polite way. Things should be explained to them as fully as possible. I was turned off by a person who did not want to talk to me because I was not important enough. McGovern just wanted to preach to the converted, who already agreed with him. I try to be cordial, because that way you win people over. You cannot win them over by drawing the line of demarcation, saying you are on this side and I am on the other; that shows a lack of consciousness. After the Democratic Leadership Council was formed, I nearly fell into this error. I could not understand why people were blind to what I saw so clearly. Then I realized that their understanding had to be developed.

    Wise words from Bill Clinton. Ultimately politics has always needed, and will always need, discourse, persuasion, and speaking to those on the fence rather than just preaching to the choir

  6. Before deciding what to do in my free time, I make sure to get approval from the state by filling out a spreadsheet on the expected marginal utility from each component of the activity relative to resting.

    Bizarrely, watching porn actually scores the highest out of any activity, due to the very positive ratio of calories burnt per feeling of fatigue.

  8. (Among Republicans)

    If Donald Trump was officially implicated in Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking activities, would this make you more likely to vote for another party, or would it not affect your vote for Donald Trump?

    Would not affect my vote for Donald Trump (47%)

    Would be more likely to vote for another party (27%)

    Not sure/prefer not to say (26%)

    I am actually so committed to the ethos of liberal internationalism that the only time I’d ever support ethnonationalism was if I was part of the ethnic majority
