That's your takeaway? No, I'm pretty sure there are a lot of Dems in office right now who need to be attacked 𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘦𝘳, then primaried, then replaced.

Okay, so he's "not committing to it or not committing to it." So... pretty sure that means he's not committing to it. 🤔
There isn't some third state where he has committed but also hasn't.

First off, why the fuck is he still posting on X?
Y'all don't post on there, do you?
Leave it the fuck alone.

I have the opposite strategy. I'm on here trying to promote my books, and so I guess the cat photos are bait? And the political posts are... counterproductive?
Honestly, I have no strategy; I'm just too lazy to create a second account.

Right. And if that actually happened, your first question would be, "Who paid this clown to throw the fight?!"

Insane but true. Only state-level crimes perpetrated by this regime have a chance of triggering punishment that sticks.

Honestly, I still expect vaguely plausible numbers. 🤷♂️ I know, I have to get over that. Confusion is a weapon for them, and they weild it well.

Giving us numbers like this, they have to know that a lot of us will do some really simple math and be like WTF.
So does their strategy involve assuming their potential voters will definitely not do the math and will be annoyed at anyone who does? Annoyed enough to vote MAGA out of spite?

Also, let's talk about Dr. Oz claiming Americans will lose "135 billion pounds" by the midterm elections. 🤔 400 pounds each?
Let's give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he meant to say "135 million." So the average American will lose... less than half a pound? This makes no sense either way!

What set me off here was this Daily Show clip where the announcer mispronounces "fentanyl" at the end. It's a really common pronunciation, but it doesn't agree with the spelling (or any dictionary) at all.
You can end the word with "ill" or even a short "ull," just please don't end it with "all."

People often pronounce "cardamom" like "cardamon," so often that it's become an accepted variant in the spelling.
Ending "cinnamon" with an M sound is a whole other thing, and yeah, it sounds charmingly silly. You can take it a step farther and say "cimmamom" if you want to sound really daft.

This is the same process that makes people want to rhyme "cardamom" with "cinnamon."
We have a pretty strong tendency to treat words (and phrases, etc.) like templates with variable slots to be filled in, rather than just like sequences of sounds, one after another.
But come on, just sound it out!

So then by extension, is Huntress in the original series also trans? Makes sense. That could explain why she's a wizard, which is highly unusual for women in Ooo.
