Probably most of it because we're talking about ST here, but I could also see there just being a lot of convergent evolution going on

This is incredibly wishful thinking. The core problem facing the games industry right now is that the price point consumers want to pay for games is far too low to cover the development costs of games. The industry's choice to keep the $60 ceiling for close to 2 decades had a disastrous effect.

Cars are one of those classes of consumer goods where the general improvement in standards is just really easy to see and yet the nostalgia glasses triumph again for sad old men.

Please for the love of God why do so many people insist on midwitting about how elections work

going to war with venezuela would be stupid and evil and also i think allying with russian stooges and weird cults is not a good way to make that point

While I appreciate the response, I - frankly- am a rando, and have not seen you respond to any of the people taking much more detailed and evidentiary disagreements with your post than I have offered

As it stands, I don't think this is a very good post, and will believe so until you prove otherwise

Look I hold to my opinion that much of the Great Pollster Debate is downstream of purely personality effects (again, if you actually read their conclusions, he agrees almost entirely with e.g. Jain)

But I feel like we're starting to see an effect on the quality of analysis and takes. Not good!

The first rule of low-turnout special elections is you do NOT talk about low-turnout special elections.

That said: bad candidate and we lost. Not good! Wish we would learn from that and run better candidates and work to rehabilitate the national party brand

Still, those are not the numbers you're looking for if you're an R representing a +5 Trump district
