GOPs this election night, looking at their losses:
Principal Skinner 2-panel meme. Panel 1: Am I out of touch? Panel 2: No, it is the voters who are wrong.

I'm not much of a dog person but I'm glad to see some dog representation in the "tiny animals wearing bat wings for Halloween" meme category.

Also, I'm very ready to be not swamped by Real Life and burnout so I could really enjoy Halloween season.

I love using sexually demographic traits in pokemon to make them visibly transgender every chance I get. Everyone post trans girl Pikachu.

I'm a big fan of supporting local businesses, but also ... to the best of my knowledge, the Amazon workers have NOT called for a boycott, and boycotting when not called for does not aid the workers.

Always listen to the strikers. They probably want to demonstrate how much it sucks when workers aren't there to fulfil the demands. Like, I tend to avoid 'black Friday' sales anyway, which are ludicrous outside the US where there's no fucking Thanksgiving, but don't just boycott whenever you see there's a strike. beeseverywhen 3 3h ago Follow This Not boycotting isn't crossing the picket. Not ordering helps the company when their workers are on strike. thalialunacy 3 1h ago Hi, Amazon employee here, to expand a bit on how the last two notes are largely correct, even though it seems counter-intuitive: As a company, Fulfillment (buying physical shit via the website) is not where Amazon's biggest profit is, by far, so even a hundred thousand people ordering less for two days or whatever wouldn't make them break a sweat. And: The weak link in the chain is the company's ability to actually deliver those orders. So: Fewer orders mean Amazon can still deliver within their SLAs even though some workers are on strike. It works in their favor. I'm not saying go out and buy MORE shit on Amazon, lolol. And I doubt many people reading this are the kind that buy heavily on Amazon anyway. I'm just saying that good intentions need to meet up with facts so they can have the best possible outcome. 2,262 notes https://www.tumblr.com/thalialunacy/768491804455796736/hi-amazon-employee-here-to-expand-a-bit-on-how?source=share

Have the workers actually called for a boycott yet? As far as I know, they haven't. Uncalled for boycotting helps the company, not the workers...

Dinner tonight started with "I should rinse off the celery from the CSA" and then "Some of the kale is starting to turn yellow" and now I've got chopped dino kale in the pan with curry spices, a few small tomatoes, and a can of cooked chicken.

Been doing meals like this a lot lately. Really good.
A steaming hot pan of the aforementioned dish, the chicken having mostly split into tiny bits.

The best time for Dems to have learned from the GOP to stop focusing on national races and suck up local/county/state offices would have been 40 years ago.

The second best time is right now.
Tiny domino to knock over giant domino meme. Labels from small to large say "Voting in progressive local candidates", "Voting in progressive county candidates", "Voting in progressive state candidates", "Voting in progressive national candidates"
