Relieved Trump lost. I’ll be relieved if he loses again and will vote for whomever isn’t Trump again too though. No matter what.

For those who, like me, wasn’t aware of rentry, it’s a pastebin the supports markdown.

I didn’t know pastebins were still a thing after stack overflow, JS fiddle and codepen replaced all that with more useful info. But I must have a different use case.

Maybe that’s based on streaming prices from 10 years ago, when there was only Hulu and Netflix.

I’m grew up in NH too. He’s right, it’s weirdly sheltered place.

  • There are almost no black people, so people here don’t think they’re racist, but it’s largely because they have few opportunities to be.

  • They think Manchester, NH is a big scary city. Where you need to carry a gun or you’ll be killed by a homeless drifter.

  • There are surprisingly few pan handlers besides at tourist spots in the summer and along the MA border.

  • You still don’t have to wear a seatbelt or even insure your car. Because they think everyone will do the right thing in an accident. Unless you’re in Manchester (or maybe Nashua).

  • it has a numb nut Republican governor, but all Democrat federal representation.

It’s a weird ass place if you’ve lived here long enough to experience it. I blame the radon (which decays to lead btw) and arsenic in the drinking water.

It’s supposed to keep assholes like the tea partyers or guys like Gates and Greene from getting control in committees until they’ve been there more than 1 term. it’s also why they offset congressional terms. So a state won’t likely end up with all its reps getting replaced at the same time.

I don’t support octogenarian+ politicians (even Bernie needs to pass the torch), but I do support rule makers having to learn how shit works before getting committee power to decide national security or health funding and decisions.

I hope this isn’t just judicial system fan fiction, but most recent evidence suggests it will be.

Sorry, it’s just been so hard not to be a pessimist about elections and the courts lately.

They’re pumping out tons of “Biden doesn’t care about NH” ads, saying he hasn’t even campaigned here. It’s fucking hilarious if you know why he isn’t campaigning here.

I might write him in, but only because I forgot to switch to independent last election and can’t vote against Trump next week.

OG iPod is missing too. Clickwheel for the win.

This isn’t new though, many boomers were the hippies at one point, they had the photocopier, fairness doctrine TV & Radio and liberal attitudes for sex, gender, and civil rights.

But the same tactics were used to stop and convert many of them, plus around half of them were the same sort of assholes that give them a bad name now.

OpenJSSCAD helps with the spaghetti code, unless you also write JS spaghetti, but I only use it for creating tools I want non-tech people to use.

It lets you make parameters editable from a web based UI of your liking with the model code hidden away, and can output decent meshes.

Not lack of opposing thumbs and the ability shit indoors or at least ask clearly to shit outside?
