The institutional Democratic Party is so fucking weak, too!

Sure, it'd be better if the Democratic Party's senate committee were better aligned with my taste; but.

TO BE CLEAR I have no dog in the ME senate primary fight. Down East is weird and I don't want anything to do with it.

It's such fucking quitter talk. OK, so a 900 yr old geriatric Democrat is a terrible candidate; all you have to do is BEAT HER, then, you fucking whiners!

I would buy the rights to Ellroy's UNDERWORLD USA and produce a six season Prestige TV series of it

lets say a wizard has cursed you with a lot of money. you are going to become permanently brain damaged simply by being in possession of so much money. the only way out of it is to spend a lot of money on something ridiculous and not at all useful

what would you buy to break the curse?

I have a pair of headphones that broke (I broke them by rolling my chair over them) that I would like to repair but I am beyond useless at anything physical. I need to find someone local who can fix them; but I'd love to be able to do it myself. What should I ask for in an online ad?

Also, I mean, nobody has an affirmative right to a candidacy! That goes just as much for the insurgents as for the incumbents!

You can make the argument that we need legal protections for nonrivalrous goods! But!
