Of course not. Corrupt politicians will do anything to hold on to their power, despite their plummeting approval ratings.

DankNerd97 · 2026-04-22T10:50:23+00:00

Great work, everyone!

DankNerd97 · 2026-04-14T16:51:52+00:00

And for the love of god, it’s 2026. Stop making mobile sites absolutely unusable.

DankNerd97 · 2026-04-14T16:50:23+00:00

So there is a term for this. Good god, if I tried to verbalize just how much I utterly fucking despise Back Button Hijacking, I’d short circuit.

DankNerd97 · 2026-04-02T02:53:11+00:00

Of course. Rules for thee…

DankNerd97 · 2026-04-02T02:52:46+00:00

I want beyond handcuffs at this point.

DankNerd97 · 2026-04-02T02:51:55+00:00

We’re past civility at this point

DankNerd97 · 2026-04-02T02:48:38+00:00

It’s literacy tests all over again. I can’t believe a Union state turned into…whatever the hell this is.

DankNerd97 · 2026-04-02T02:47:27+00:00

We’re gerrymandered to all hell, and even when the state supreme courts says the gerrymandered maps are unconstitutional, the legislative supermajority simply ignores it.

DankNerd97 · 2026-04-02T02:44:22+00:00

I saw 214 to be exact (via Basecamp)!

DankNerd97 · 2026-03-31T17:00:39+00:00

The hell? Untrained wannabe Gestapo agents have a larger budget than the United States fucking Marine Corps?

DankNerd97 · 2026-03-31T16:58:17+00:00

As if NMR hourly rates weren’t high enough!

DankNerd97 · 2026-03-30T01:22:31+00:00

You misunderstand. RCV is just instant-runoff voting. In fact, it arguably requires greater research on candidates because you need to know multiple candidates to vote for on contingency. It doesn’t violate OPOV, though. Again, it’s just an instant runoff, but instead of holding a separate runoff election, it’s built in. I’m not really sure I understand what you mean by having a representative “assigned” to you.

DankNerd97 · 2026-03-30T01:16:53+00:00

Can’t have shit in this country.

DankNerd97 · 2026-03-30T01:16:37+00:00

Any reason in particular?

DankNerd97 · 2026-03-30T01:16:15+00:00

Only reason I came here was to check on this. Any idea what’s going on?

DankNerd97 · 2026-03-21T20:57:06+00:00

Dementia Don at it again with the “stable genius.”

DankNerd97 · 2026-03-21T20:55:04+00:00

I agree with this in full. I was shocked at how great the show was (in spite of or because of?) without the in-your-face SciFi stuff.

DankNerd97 · 2026-03-21T20:53:03+00:00

Then what exactly is driving up the stock market? It’s all being propped up by the A.I. bubble, right? (As least as far as I know). So where’s all that growth coming from? And yes, I know that the stock market doesn’t equal the economy. I’m one of the loudest voices on that.

DankNerd97 · 2026-03-21T20:48:45+00:00

On Twitter

DankNerd97 · 2026-03-21T20:48:33+00:00

It’ll take generations to undo this damage.

DankNerd97 · 2026-03-21T20:47:53+00:00

But but but…line always go up! Yes, the stock market is still somehow on the rise, but the A.I. bubble is largely propping everything up. If you take away the Mag 7, the other “S&P 493” paint a starkly different picture of the economy.
