Similarly, the 80s had 3 phases:

80-82: Funk and New Wave, the golden years
83-87: Mullets, way too many mullets. Also Rick Astley
88-89: hey, they are starting to play danceable music again

Not just east Germany. I remember seeing lots of dead forests in West Germany as well in the 80s and 90s.

They are small change in comparison, but hell no we won’t forget them

I agree with your analysis but not with your conclusion. Dems suck in many ways, but the worst Dem is still better than the best Republican (at least these days). When there’s a fascist on the ballot, I’m gonna vote for the other party, no matter how much I have to throw up in my mouth

There's centrists on one side and leftists on the other and both claim only they can win elections. I call bs on both.
We can only win elections together, and unfortunately that means nobody gets exactly what they want.

absolutely, 100%

You do not have to convince me. I am way to the left of Bernie on most issues and will go as far left as possible in the primary. But in the general, I'll vote blue no matter who, even fucking Newsom if I have to. Anything is better than this shit.
November 19, 2025 at 1:07 AM
I'll go as left or as right as I have to, but the rest of the electorate won't. Sure, we can run an edgelord leftist to win 5% new voters, but we'd lose 30% existing ones. Run progressives in the cities and centrists in the suburbs, and get them to work with each other. That is the way to victory

I know. Y’all would rather have a fascist than a moderate dem.

My objections against Bernie are not that he is too far left, quite the contrary. But a guy who sees identity politics as a distraction is just not the right person to clean up the mess of 400+ years of racism and sexism

If she runs in 2028 I’ll vote for her, obviously. But I doubt she will, she’s still too young
November 19, 2025 at 12:33 AM
Exactly. And then after 2 terms or so she can think about the White House
November 18, 2025 at 7:56 PM
OK but Bernie lost twice in the primaries.
He's a decent senator, but he's just not presidential material.
AOC is amazing, but still too young. Let her run in 32 or 36.

Platner? The Nazi mercenary? No f***ing way
November 18, 2025 at 7:52 PM
1. Nope.
2. I wish.
3. Probably.
November 18, 2025 at 7:51 PM
This is definitely in the top 5
November 18, 2025 at 7:27 PM
It's still a great record. The only thing I dislike about it is that it only has the teaser version of Rose Arcana.
