Thinking of opening a window a bit to try to catch cheers from the Art Museum steps, only seven and a half miles away

This is a hell of an endorsement.
Not sure how I missed this earlier, but everyone should read this one!
Arnold Schwarzenegger@Schwarzenegger
I don’t really do endorsements. I’m not shy about sharing my views, but I hate politics and don’t trust most politicians. I also understand that people want to hear from me because I am not just a celebrity, I am a former Republican Governor. My time as Governor taught me to love policy and ignore politics. I’m proud of the work I did to help clean up our air, create jobs, balance the budget, make the biggest infrastructure investment in state history, and take power from the politicians and give it back to the people when it comes to our redistricting process and our primaries in California. That’s policy. It requires working with the other side, not insulting them to win your next election, and I know it isn’t sexy to most people, but I love it when I can help make people’s lives better with policies, like I still do through my institute at USC, where we fight for clean air and stripping the power from the politicians who rig the system against the people. Let me be honest with you: I don’t like either party right now. My Republicans have forgotten the beauty of the free market, driven up deficits, and rejected election results. Democrats aren’t any better at dealing with deficits, and I worry about their local policies hurting our cities with increased crime. It is probably not a surprise that I hate politics more than ever, which, if you are a normal person who isn’t addicted to this crap, you probably understand. I want to tune out. But I can’t. Because rejecting the results of an election is as un-American as it gets. To someone like me who talks to people all over the world and still knows America is the shining city on a hill, calling America is a trash can for the world is so unpatriotic, it makes me furious. And I will always be an American before I am a Republican. That’s why, this week, I am voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. I’m sharing it with all of you because I think there are a lot of you who feel like I do. You don’t recognize our country. And you are right to be furious. For decades, we’ve talked about the national debt. For decades, we’ve talked about comprehensive immigration reform that secures the border while fixing our broken immigration system. And Washington does nothing. The problems just keep rolling, and we all keep getting angrier, because the only people that benefit from problems aren’t you, the people. The only people that benefit from this crap are the politicians who prefer having talking points to win elections to the public service that will make Americans’ lives better. It is a just game to them. But it is life for my fellow Americans. We should be pissed! But a candidate who won’t respect your vote unless it is for him, a candidate who will send his followers to storm the Capitol while he watches with a Diet Coke, a candidate who has shown no ability to work to pass any policy besides a tax cut that helped his donors and other rich people like me but helped no one else else, a candidate who thinks Americans who disagree with him are the bigger enemies than China, Russia, or North Korea - that won’t solve our problems. It will just be four more years of bullshit with no results that makes us angrier and angrier, more divided, and more hateful. We need to close the door on this chapter of American history, and I know that former President Trump won’t do that. He will divide, he will insult, he will find new ways to be more un-American than he already has been, and we, the people, will get nothing but more anger. That’s enough reason for me to share my vote with all of you. I want to move forward as a country, and even though I have plenty of disagreements with their platform, I think the only way to do that is with Harris and Walz. Vote this week. Turn the page and put this junk behind us. And even if you disagree with me, vote, because that’s what we do as Americans. vote.org

My parents are about as traditional as you can imagine.
Years ago, my dad was talking about an election. He used the word “we.” My mom broke in quietly. Using his first name, she said simply, “You don’t know how I vote.”
Your #vote is private. Take it from my mom.

Here's our last parody song about the #USElection2024. It's called "Bohemian Trumpsody" (based on the inimitable @QueenWillRock but with only six voices & no overdubs) & we've self-trolled in it as 'libtards' already, just to save folks time who might be offended 🎶🗳️🤞

I just ordered ANOTHER hundred postcards. I have stamps. Why would I need postcard stamps in December?

@gggirl924 All my mother's trees (3, or 4) went to my sibs and sib-kids, but what I remember most was trying to find replacement "lights" for her that (1) fit and (2) matched the molds of the ones we had left.

I know a lot of you buy this brand so can you recommend some to put on pork shoulders, or salmon, or chicken?
I need to support them!

“Terrible, Over-Priced Product” D. Trump. He’s trying to drive us out of business because we welcomed Kamala Harris into our Pittsburgh store where she hugged one of our customers. Please send us your money :) penzeys.com/online-catalog…

For as distressing as it is to know the glaciers are receding, it's a welcome distraction to have this fascinating site pop up in the midst of other world news

The finds just keep pouring in! We’ve just discovered a medieval horseshoe on the south side of the Lendbreen pass, not far from where we found the horse bit last year. The shape suggests it dates back to the 12th or 13th century.

The Marsh Family are in the UK, so they can be forgiven for missing the "comma-la" lesson. They know their satsumas, though (@MarshSongs)

The most important thing to remember about the 49-45 Harris lead in the polls is that Hillary Clinton was up over 10 points and a 90%+ favorite to win the election.
Be happy we have the momentum, but don’t get complacent. Polls don’t vote.

@bikemamadelphia Just reading your post brought the smell of sharpened pencils (the wooden ones, which needed the handle-turned sharpener)
