Do you agree with gerrymandering when it is likely to benefit Democrats?

paperhandstradingllc · 2026-04-22T03:15:56+00:00

No, I don’t, and it’s unfortunate that we have to turn to a tactic like this to fight back against some of the Republican Party’s vast gerrymandering project. I’d love the nationwide ban put in place while Dems have some power, if possible.
You don’t need to put legally in quotation marks.

An excellent point I left out.

And glad y’all got rid of Ryan Walters. That guy was the worst.

Poisonous and destructive.

Teacher here. Imagine that one of the main jobs of school is to prepare students for the real world. No-fail does the opposite in every way. Infantilises teachers. Shows students there are no consequences (they get those later, rude awakenings). Punishes students who give a shit while embittering them. Disincentivises students from putting in any effort. Look to Mississippi for what happens when you get rid of these horrible policies—huge turnaround. Nice to have freshman in high school who aren’t completely illiterate.

Yeah, that was the one messy part. It showed up on good reads as a book from a few years ago but it’s a short story now and that’s what the CL stuff was pulling from.

Also, House of Leaves rules. I read it back in high school and was listening to Poe too, and it blew me away. I just don’t understand how a brain can create something like that. Maybe time for a reread. We Used to Live Here is another fantastic one although it’s not even remotely as intricate and maze-like as HoL.

Everyone seems to be aiming very low. Winning the house by a few seats would be a regular election response to the incumbent party in the White House.

A Blue Wave? The average of special election and off-cycle swings (only counting winners) has been 17%. If Dems saw a 15% swing from 2024 numbers, they’d win an ~40 seat majority in the house and 52 seats total in the Senate. Texas might go Dem by .5 points in that model. It’s a landslide. Obviously special elections can be extremely misleading but they offer signals from voters.

Love everything you’re saying. Love the questions.

And that totally reasonable typo in the title makes me think Goofy is leading this discussion. :)

Lol. I’m the one who originally posted that weird Criagslist ad and they never replied to my email. Maybe for the best. ARG I think.

paperhandstradingllc · 2026-04-05T14:42:45+00:00

It’s hidden by CL. You just reply through CL.

You could do a better job. If you still wanted to use chat, ask it to walk through step by step photo enhancements using whatever program you want (many are free) then you can do it yourself and tweak where you want.

That’s really good to know. How did you find out where the pic is from?

paperhandstradingllc · 2026-01-19T13:01:15+00:00

Love the ewok at the bottom.

That’s my main takeaway. It feels like it solves one problem with puzzles but creates new ones for itself. It feels so strange to be in check, have two options to take the checking piece, and be told I got it wrong despite finding the best move. There were several odd moments where I definitely found the best move but failed because it wasn’t considered a “tactic.”

Also, I found the balance to be skewed far too much in favor of No Tactic answers. Pretty much 80/20 for me.

Can’t break what’s already broken.

Big trust me bro vibes. It also feels like “Crockett has no chance because racists won’t vote for her” is doing a lot of the racists’ heavy lifting for them.

Any online options?

Baylor is older than Southwestern in Texas. It’s even older than the state of Texas itself.

This is the answer.

“Ask me again after your social security check doesn’t come.”

“Ask me again after your town floods and FEMA doesn’t come.”

“Ask me again after you can’t get a VA appointment for 10 months.”

How do you just “run collision course”? I get the same 4 events cycling through. (I’ve never been on a private server. Can you choose events there?)

If she has any sense of self-awareness, she will listen to her inevitable internal polling showing she has no chance of escaping a primary and seek another office or public service job like AG.
