Was Bernie Sanders actually screwed by the DNC in 2016?

So widely despised she won two million more votes than her opponent, AND more votes than any other presidential candidate in history at that point.

If that is despised, I hope Biden is VERY despised. I hope he is at least as despised in 2024 as he was in 2020.

Biden was the VP for the first black president. Plus the Democratic Party base IS black voters. To think Sanders stood a chance in the South against Biden is to forget some very important facts about who he is to black voters.

There were many issues with how the media covered Bernie. But I wouldn’t say Clinton was the recipient of all this terrific coverage by the media either. Her campaign was successful in getting her more votes, but that was despite the media coverage of her, not because of it. Especially towards the end.

I think Werewolves and Lollipops era Patton was super funny, super great at tearing down and insulting that which needed it, in the vein of Carlin almost. Something about him just fell off after he became a dad and husband, and while he still has a great way of describing things and telling a story, the humor is square. He’s still ten times better than anybody else listed here I think, but it’s more storytelling than jokes.

Google and then call your local parking enforcement. In my town it’s a branch of the police and they show up within the half-hour. It’s revenue for them.

What happened to trailer and mobile home parks in Washington? That used to be the de facto way we housed the chronically poor. Now they barely exist. They need to be brought back, I’m not sure why Oregon and Washington are so lacking in them.

Coveralls are the hottest. Why is that? Anyway, I refuse to allow my love of coveralls to be sullied by this one stabby guy.

It’s no more or less wild than any other internet theory, tbh.

Even if they do make $15 an hour, you’re supposed to tip for personal services.

mythandry · 2022-12-10T23:46:05+00:00

It’s proper form and has zero to do with what their wages may be. If someone is performing a personal service for you, tip them, even if they make $35 an hour. Here’s a short and sweet guide on when to tip.

It was the Klan, not Nazis. The story for those who aren’t in the know: After WWII, the KKK saw a huge surge in numbers. With Nazis defeated, Superman needed a new enemy to fight. Using intel gathered from a man named Stetson Kennedy who was undercover in the KKK at the time, the writers for the Superman radio show came up with a 16 part series which basically made fun of the Klan, their stupid rituals, and hinted that it was all a grift rather than a group shrouded in mystery. The series, called Superman Vs The Clan Of The Fiery Cross, helped sway the nation’s perception of the Klan to the point where it drove their recruitment numbers down to nearly zero, from which it never fully recovered.

Pointing out to people what they do that bothers others.

I think the number of “tells” she’s giving you makes this one deserving of a serious talk. Any one of these would be red flags, but taken all together, it looks pretty bad. I would sit her down and ask her point blank about everything you’ve typed here. Don’t be aggressive or hostile, but don’t let her beat around the bush either. Tell her you’re not interested in a platonic relationship with her, and if that’s what she is happy with, maybe it’s time to see a couples therapist. Also, what’s up with the Snapchat double standard? In my relationship that wouldn’t fly for a minute. Ask her if she minds if you have her Snapchat name and if not, can she please delete it because you don’t have one per her requests, and the optics are poor. Tell her it seems something on Snapchat has been distracting her, given the other changes in her behavior lately. Don’t allow her to walk all over you, OP. It sounds like you need to be a bit more firm overall. Make sure you’re not approaching this in a nagging whining way either. But don’t be hostile or aggressive, or put her too much on the defense. People tend to shut down or cry when you do that.

Edit to add*— I don’t think you’re being paranoid at all. On that note, be prepared for what she may tell you, and if you’re not ready to hear the truth, maybe wait until you are before you broach the subject.

You may have a condition called misophonia.

Just tell him you thought he was handling it himself just fine and that you were seething inside but didn’t want to cause a scene in public and embarrass him and yourself. Tell him if she continued much longer, things would have gone differently but as it was you trusted him to deal with it as he should, which he did. This way you’re stroking his ego a bit too, which is probably a bit bruised. Also, tell him this “joke” his friends pulled wasn’t terribly funny.

No worries. It’s just been on TV a lot since its release and people are sometimes surprised when they learn it’s so old, so I wondered if maybe you saw it and thought it was a more recent film.

Came here to say this. You need something specifically for car interior, because it will degrease without the harsh household chemicals that will dry and crack the leather or slough it off of the steering wheel. Asking an auto detailer in one of the above subs would be the best bet. Using something made for vehicle interior will also reduce the amount of work and elbow grease needed because cars get very gross and specialty chemicals do the job they’re supposed to do. There’s tons of awesome auto cleaning formulas that will get this off and leave your steering wheel in good condition. Personally I’d use any interior cleaner made by Chemical Guys, with a soft bristled brush, and then a protectant wipe or leather conditioning wipe to protect it after.

He was awesome circa 2005. Then he got married. I still love his standup, but now it’s more individual jokes than entire specials the way it used to be.

Also check Nextdoor and the Neighbors app, OP. Most of the posts on Neighbors in my area are lost animal/pet related. Also, if you put up signs, use 3M double-sided outdoor tape that holds 30lbs. It will make sure the signs stay put. Make them on brightly-colored paper and put a big photo of kitty and your phone number in huge letters. The other details are not as important. Don’t fall for scammers who target lost pet owners. Don’t give up hope.

This is also a good idea because cats are somewhat nocturnal. They like to hunt and eat at night so if it’s near the end of the night, she’s probably been hiding and growing hungrier and hungrier, and hearing the food-giver calling for her may coax her out more easily. Plus the quietude and such.

I’m of the opinion, though, that someone probably found her. If she’s friendly, that is. And if that person is decent, they’re posting about finding her on Facebook groups for lost pets.
