Most questions got 2-5 minutes of coverage. The climate got one, near the end. One minute for the climate. It was pathetic.
Trump, of course, used his one minute to talk about more fracking.

And childless cat ladies everywhere rejoice.
There’s a saying, around here people know it…some people over there may know it too… the enemy of my friend is my enemy, the enemy of my enemy is my contractually non-binding Diplomacy partner.
They used to say that about Ohio. …before that Florida …before that Iowa …before that California ….way before that, Pennsylvania
Queue that XKCD.
Soon it’s going to be Georgia or Arizona And then Texas
I for one, can’t wait for the chili cook offs, and when all the candidates start wearing cowboy hats. The y’all’s will truly have it!
Right? Why do civilizations fight wars anyway? If not flat out colonialism and dick measuring, then It’s usually for resources, maybe protection for cultural exclaves if it serves the nation’s geopolitical interest.
All that is to say, Russians are not Chinese. And I don’t think many Eastern Russians would welcome the switch. So, China would be instigating a lot of strife for minimal gains.
Taiwan on the other hand, I can at least understand. I don’t agree with the stance, not in the least, primarily because I believe democracy is superior to communism. Nevertheless, if I had my adversaries 100 miles off my border and their existence hampered me economically and militarily, then I absolutely would subjugate them in any way possible.
I’d donate a few dollars a month. Newgrounds is a great content creation space. I still play games there from time to time. The Mario 63 game is off the wall. Dead Estate is also a fantastic retro style shooter like the ones I remember from my childhood. I think places like this need to survive.
Sure I’ll give it a shot. Romney did Obamacare for Massachusetts, so a moderate republican may do OK with DHHS.
I’d also be OK with Federal Reserve, isn’t a republican currently serving in that role? Bernanke was a republican and he did alright.
Veterans Affairs possibly as well, if Kamala gave guidance.
But keep them the hell away from Energy, EPA and Education. Probably not DOT if we ever want a decent rail system too.
Didn’t Lincoln include members from various political parties? And he’s arguably the best president we’ve had.
It’s as if, and hear me out on this, there aren’t enough progressives alone to elect a president in a nation of 350+ million people.
I suppose it also tells the good guys too.
Hillary got buttery maled and blue walled.
She was exceptionally equipped and would have made for a fine president, after all, she was the one who advocated for Obamacare back in the 90s, (which you may know, was actually a republican plan first, back when republicans used to win New England states).
All that is to say, people like to think Hillary wouldn’t have moved the country to the left, but she most certainly would have. Her public perception may not have been as left as Bernie, and perception absolutely matters (see Joe B). However, like Biden, I think she had such control of the political machinery that she would have been much more effective at putting those plans to action.
The reason I say all of this is, some our most left leaning policies have been enacted by presidents who were elected from the center (Johnson, Clinton, Biden).
Sounds like Ol’ Sleepy Joe got to him. Get that fake handicap low enough Donnie, Joe’s comin’ for ya!
There’s a recent one I heard on radiolab podcast. In Chinese medicine there’s this concept of Chi that ebbs and flows throughout all of our body and our organs.
Western science dismissed it for a long time, but we were dumbfounded when a cancer would start somewhere, say the liver and then suddenly start appearing elsewhere like the brain, without harming anything in between.
Well, it turns out, our cell drying process for preparing slides for examination was crushing this tiny little matrix of tubes… that connects everything together. It’s working its way through the scientific process to be considered a new organ.
The pinnacle of the human form, ladies and gentlemen.
Endive it will. It’s as if her ice bergled the rest of her face.
If FDR would have listened to the people, the US would have never joined WW2. If Johnson had listed to the people, we would have not passed the Civil Rights Act.
We call on a leader to lead, not follow.
Because Black lives matter, because Asian lives matter, because Hispanic lives matter. This country is a melting pot of cultures and ideas and if you don’t have someone that represents you, then you’re not likely to be represented.
And that scientists name? Albert Einstein.
A lot of us migrated months ago when the writing was on the wall.
Kbin became my home when I decided to move to a smaller foreign county, and I’m glad it was, because the land of Mastodon was a bit too distant for me. When the Kbin house was burning down, fortunately the next door neighbor, Fedia, was there to take me in and make things feel familiar.
I suppose that’s the whole advantage of the Fediverse. One head of the hydra may get chopped down, but many others can spring out from it.
Don’t forget to support your admins y’all.

Most of the dem voter base that you know. To paraphrase Nate Silver recently, the liberal very online voter thinks that their constituency is a lot larger than it is.
I guarantee you that the union steel worker in Bethlehem, PA and the school teacher mother of 4 in Georgia are and have been a sizable part of the base.
