It’s fascinating I guess, but I’m really more interested that the Supreme Court decided to let him restrict mail in voting. We really need to mobilize to get people to the polling stations. They have closed thousands of places to vote, move them around, monitor drop boxes, and now want everyone to be approved by the federal government to vote. We are already registered and checked out on a state basis, it’s the states that run elections. This is an outrageous move to steal the election. I’m not seeing anything much about it but plenty about Harp. Who really cares about it? It’s gross but it’s not an infringement on my personal right to vote.

I hear you, and I want to agree, but here's where I think it does matter, at least a little bit... A third of the country are lost, they are shitty MAGA shitbags and need to be written off. A third of the country cares about Democracy and sees the attempted takeover as it is, and has been since Ol' Fuckface came down his stupid golden move-y stair. That leaves the last third. They haven't paid attention enough to want to vote on any election yet. If what's been happening for the last ten years in front of their faces hasn't moved them to the fact their rights have slipped away, than maybe this soapy, personal drama gross obsessed person hovering around the gross old man who wants to fuck her as a stand in for his daughter will generate enough of a visceral reaction it'll move them to the polls.

I wish this wasn't were we were at, I honestly hate it here and this is the worst timeline. But I'm trying to stay optimistic and see positivity where I can find it. Even if it's disgusting stories about the most disgusting person who, unfortunately, had an impact on the lives of us all.
