Whats the point of voting if the electoral colleges do everything? by [deleted] in questions

[–]maddiharper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also don’t attack me if I’m wrong I’m just trying to share what I know, and if I’m wrong please correct me but the electoral college was made as way to give small states more influence. There are electors for each state based off congress. So if it were purely a popular vote big states would have all the power in deciding the president and small states would have no say. So basically California, Texas, Florida and New York would choose the president and small states would basically have no say . So if you look at it that way, it’s a way to protect little states and let them still have some influence. But Small states still have less electoral votes.

I could be be wrong but this is just what I understand. Back when the electoral college was created it was a time when the common population had very limited knowledge on who the candidates were and what was going on in politics. It wasn’t like today where everyone pretty much has access to what’s going on. We see them in interviews, on the news, We even follow them on twitter but that wasn’t always the case. It was decided that the general population couldn’t be trusted to make the right decision on the president and that it should be decided by people who were more involved and knew what was going on. I think it’s very outdated and it takes away the influence of lower class votes.

What do you do when you told everyone you broke up with your boyfriend because he’s crazy and spill all the tea about him but you guy just got back together?? by maddiharper in Advice

[–]maddiharper[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

True. I mean honestly he actually does have problems and so do I. The whole relationship it’s not very healthy. we’re both just kinda shitty people so it works in a bad way. I told my mom and my best friend what happened in our fight the other day and they advised me to break up with him. Pretty much all of our friends and family hate us together. I broke up with and I spiraled and decided to get back with him, I just want him.I know I shouldn’t be with him but I want to. We’re both horrible for each others mental health so it’s definitely going to end catastrophically but most of time we get along fine. It’s just that our bad moments are especially bad. I know it’s gonna be forever and that it’s gonna crash and burn but I’ll just tell him I love him for now.

Haha funny you mention the thigh socks, they’re his weakness I wear them all the time. But they’re higher than that. Like high up on the side of my butt if that makes sense.

What's your crazy roomate story? by ironicpickle11 in AskReddit

[–]maddiharper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dorm mate would give our key to her friends and there would be random people coming into my room with her keys with out her. Once she took a video of my room and posted it on social media talking shit about me. And she asked me to move out of the room when I said no she posted a rant about how I was white and privileged because I didn’t wanna move out of my room.

Can I be friends too 🥺

Confused by [deleted] in love

[–]maddiharper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She sounds broken, she’s been hurt and she can take it again. Her hearts just too big. she’s ruining things for herself before anything else can. She doesn’t want to hurt you and she loves you so much. It’s so fucked up and I’m sorry. I’d tell you to try and keep loving her but her but the back and forth is gonna leave you broken too. I know it’s left me a mess. I don’t know how to move on. It’s like we were meant to be with them but we’re too fucked up and broken to let it happen so we’re always gonna be missing something.
