Truly, I hope that amongst all of the unnecessary noise that it doesn’t get lost how historic and cool it is to potentially have the first Muslim serving in the US Senate.
good reminder that before the counting is over, election results don’t tighten. at no point is anyone trailing. nobody moves closer. they’re just tabulating the polls. it’s a fixed number that just isn’t done yet. to say otherwise is bad journalism but even worse math.
County names are always so fascinating to look at on election maps.
Weird thing: one of my students was hanging out in Scranton with the newest, everyone's excited about Yankee as recently as last semester.

you have to admit it's a little funny that Aaron Rodgers immediately undermined the coordinated efforts to rehabilitate his image one last time
The number of so-called progressives on here who are happy to parrot “Muslim Moroccan migrants into Spain are an invading force of Israel,” just because it allows them to maintain “Israel is bad” as the highest political principle of all, is really dismaying!
When you hear of an incident between foreign countries, a good rule of thumb is to start with it likely has local causes. Spain and Morocco have their own shit. It’s not a dastardly (((globalist))) plot to make Europe less aryan, nor a dastardly Zionist plot to get Spain back for verbal criticism.

First it was the factory Then it was the Walmart Next the prison Now Data centers In the end, reader, none of the 4 generations of capitalists managed to save the town because none of them ever actually gave a damn
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 5d agoHassett: "Data centers are very good for towns bc they create so many jobs & bring people in with high incomes that can buy houses & stuff like that.
