I think the efficacy of ADHD meds sort of speaks to the reality of the disorder.

Is 22% regretring their decision a high number? Seems like the vast majority are still cool with their vote, but I have no frame of reference for what's normal.

Also, I'm not sure of the demos in her district, but she was, uh, less than good on issues touching the Jewish community. Angering your second-most reliable voter base is a bad idea! It makes you wonder if anyone in her orbit tried to explain or talk about any of this with her.

She spent her campaign pissing off the people she was gonna have to work with, for zero reason. That's not good strategy, especially when the people you pissed off are nominally your allies and you'll need their help to get anything done. Which, again, maybe her plan was never to get anything done.

Haha I just replied to you elsewhere with a similar sentiment.

I hope she didn't want a career in politics, because she's committed one of the major sins: don't shit where you eat.

It's especially strange because they absolutely hate pandering to the right, but they also just expect people in deep red states to suddenly vote for a leftist because their current leadership (who they elected) is really shitty.

guy who hates french fries but loves ketchup more and can't think of a better way to eat it

Like I'm sorry but Platner was gonna get dog-walked by Collins if he wasn't forced to resign, his whole shtick was attacking "establishment Dems" and she's had decades of experience doing exactly that. I'm not sure what his plan to beat her was, but he sure loved photo ops with Republican voters...

Military dining facilities work well within their milieu, they provide cheap ready options close to the barracks. There are obvious translation issues going between an organization like the Army and city government, but it seems like the kind of thing that *should* be workable, at a small scale.

Their entire campaign is usually to win the primary. They expend energy attacking "centrist Dems" and outlining a plan to remove them from power, energy they DO NOT spend fighting fascists. It means that even if you win, you make enemies of friends, and you don't have a plan to win the election.

I will give her all the credit she deserves and more for what she did as a member of the Broadview Six, but yes, her reaction to losing (still hasn't endorsed Biss) and most things since have reinforced my belief that she wasn't right for the job.

She has not endorsed him. You're spot on about it being a bad look, no one in serious politics is gonna want to work with someone who can't lose with grace, and might in fact cause harm to the cause. She tried to win a Dem primary ffs, and she can't help the party she tried to represent?

It's just very funny that you have such a strong opinion on a thread you cannot even read except through screenshots. It explains why he blocked you though, and that definitely explains your blind hatred of him.

I saw someone suggest city-run cafeterias, and the idea intrigued me.

They don't need to make 10% profit on 100 items when they can make 0.0001% profit on 1,000,000 items.

Approximately 1 out of 3 women will experience sexual and/or physical abuse in their lifetime and you still have men claiming that allegations must be false because there are too many of them. It’s actually the opposite. The vast majority allegations will never become public

Glad to help! Lord knows I've absolutely botched alt-text before.

So endeth the lesson.

BOB tried to be friendly to me and caught a block. You're right about BOB being a DICK.
