God this website needs inline spoilers already! I can’t remember what happens in S02E03, but more people definitely need to watch Medalist!
I'm telling you all this is a warning, just like I gave you a warning in 2020, when Biden got elected and started talking all that foolishness about "The problem with politics that we've all been to divisive!🤡"
And as he ramped up cop funding and cop killings again, achieving the US cop kill record.
Some of y'all got so exuberant with Trump's loss that you forgot that Biden's win was delivered by overwhelming turnout by Black voters.
You genuinely thought that Biden could increase mass incarceration over Trump 2016🤦🏿♂️ and kill more Black people than Trump 2016🤦🏿♂️ and get that same Black support?
You can read all the silly Atlantic and Politico and New York Time articles that you want, that claim, "How the Blue Wave Happened!🤡" but don't mention the phrase "Black voters" once.
All of those articles are wrong, and are seducing Dems into making the same mistake.
That Blue wave can disappear.
Because that Blue wave is made up of Black bodies.
And at least 10% of these Black bodies don't trust most Dems 🙋🏿♂️, after watching the last 80 years of them lie about us and to us repeatedly about our most basic human rights.
If any Dem pulls a Biden? Then they will also lose reelection.
1) Any "tough on crime" Dem that pushes anti-Black policies will become unelectable, unless they can win without Black voter support.
2) You cannot win Presidency as a Dem, or Senator or Governor in a "state that matters*" without Black voter support.
*Except California. Not enough Black voters.🤷🏿♂️
A lot of people are still trying to play 2026 politics using a 1986 playbook.
They think that they can still take Black voters for granted and it will work.
But it doesn't work.
People still haven't understood that if Black voters have delivered you victory, they can also take it away.

Aww, cruft, fridge thermometer in the "danger" zone. Samsung fridge. I guess I will try to vacuum it first.
@ai6yr Door seals?
anyone out there on computer right now?? how's it holding up
@jk Busy. Many robots crowding in, taking up space, very rude. Library is closed due to overcrowding. Brick holding up fine but ears and tail getting tired. Generally not a great day, hoping for better tomorrow. Wow!
@aetios Eh? Which one's the number one song these days?

Suppose I told you that the 50M immigrants in the US, almost all of whom are here legally, needed to continue to vote for Dems in record numbers for the next 80 years, while the Dems passed increasingly larger ICE budgets and ramped up ICE killings until ICE was killing 2 people a day in the streets.
Now suppose I told you that the immigrants said, "No! That deal sucks!"
And so I told the immigrants, "Too bad! You have to vote for me! The GOP is even worse! LOL!🤡"
And the immigrants said, "No dude, we really don't. We can vote for the subset of Dems that aren't even more pro-ICE than the GOP."
There are about 50M Black people in the US.
Cops kill 1 or 2 Black people a day. Some days it's up to 6 in a single day.
Some of the most violently racist criminal justice laws in world history have been written by "tough on crime" Dems like Biden.
Black people have waited for over 80 years.

this account still mostly write-only.
departing for cat/dog/house sitting today. double booked for half of it so rest value will be minimal, but I will have a car to get from place to place.
never did get my head above water the last 2 weeks away, and thus didn't manage to reboot routine during the next 2 weeks back at CouchLab; but at least my work responsiveness wasn't so bad that people got mad at me. I had to prioritize it above basic life functions to make that true, though.
my sleep's been fucked enough for long enough that I started seeing fairly substantial oscillations in mood & energy state, but at the moment I'm back to euthymic so uh, that's good because a mini deathmarch to change location when in The Pit is never a pleasant experience... though deathmarches of that sort do tend to have their own mood-regulating properties, at least until they conclude.
@chris Huh. I wonder how my reply got detached from your OP.
@deFractal I delete/edited sorry
Ok actually one exception: the ambient music in Zora's Domain would fit better in a Leisure Suit Larry game and that is so weird.

Breaking Video: Van Hollen, ‘I think this is a wide-open race’ | ABC
I think this is a wide open race. I think the American people spoke loudly and clearly on election day. They rejected Trump's policy... but they haven't fully hired the Democrats... We have to take on this system where you've got an economy that is rigged in favor of the folks at the top against working people and it is fueled by political corruption. We need to go after that.
