What's your wild card take on the shit show?
Edit: Click on the states to flip them around.
Who is this character? I see them everywhere here in China. For reference I am old and out of touch.
It's Hatsune Miku, the mascot character for the Vocaloid software of the same name. She's also a virtual pop star, kinda like Gorillaz.
She also endorsed the official hexbear app back when we had that and we didn't go full isolation mode.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
I think it's Hatsune Miku. I only know how they look, and they're maybe a fake popstar figure? Like proto-vtuber type shit from early or mid 2000's?
It is. The image also contains 初音ミク just to erase all doubt. She's a 17-year-old vocaloid software and still holds concerts to this day.

This would be the most hilarious outcome possible that’s within the realm of reasonable. Dems finally achieve the decades-long pipe dream of turning Texas blue, but lose the rest of the Southwest and key rust belt states resulting in an electoral college win for Trump. Harris, of course, wins the popular vote by an even bigger margin than in 2000 or 2016.
Technically the Republicans would succeed in turning Texas blue because so many will switch parties after becoming fed up with the administration
this was a very funny read, thank you
doesn't seem terribly far-fetched
No matter the result, I will have to stare into the eyes of all my neighbors with the knowledge that they voted for genocide and hold back my bile and venom for their cowardice and try to build a better world with these satanic compradors.
If it's any consolation, Kamala finally acknowledged what's going on in Gaza and
dropped (mostly)reduced the israel defending itself framing at her rally in MI yesterday to state in no uncertain terms that she would put an end to palestinian suffering. Still too little too late for me to take her very seriously but the pressure appears to be working even with the libs doing everything they can to suppress it.more meaningless rhetoric with no actual policy is not a consolation
Oh absolutely, only time will tell if she takes actual action and I have all the doubts in the world especially as long as Biden is in charge. This should have come months sooner, not two days before the election.
All that said, it's a notable change in rhetoric and it's a positive one which would have never happened if they weren't losing votes over it, if Trump weren't also trying to outflank her with anti-war/pro-arab rhetoric in Michigan. I'm choosing to lean optimistic that my liberal friends and family who vote for her are just stupid and ideologically self-defeating, not evil, and there's enough of us against the genocide that it's a real threat to their power.
she would put an end to palestinian suffering.
to be fair, Netanyahu also wants to end Palestinian suffering (permanently!) – it is the manner and speed with which it is ended that is at issue
did she describe the manner and speed with which she would end their suffering?
She spoke of a diplomatic solution but yeah by all means, skip to 39 minutes in and judge for yourself.
There have been numerous opportunities for a diplomatic solution and the entity has vaporized all the negotiators.
well, I skipped to 39:00 and made it to about 41:00.
that's the same shit everyone has been saying for decades. idk what else to say about it. it's surprising to me that you hear anything but empty platitudes in those two minutes.
what circumstances do you expect to be changed by her election? she's already in the White House, democrats are at the helm of this genocide, and they say if we vote for them even harder this time, they pinky promise to work really hard to figure something out – but why is that? what will change once they win again? why do you believe them?
All I'm saying is it's a positive change from what she's been saying. Up to now she hasn't even acknowledged the Palestinian side of it. I'm not for her and I'm not voting for her, I'm just slightly less disgusted by her. She was perfectly content before to tell arab voters to go fuck themselves and completely avoid the subject.
The reason I shared the video itself was to not overstate the change here.

To be fair, it was supposed to be wild takes. An actually realistic version of 269-269 looks like this:

Harris wins, Trump get shot, as a show of unity and reconcilation she invites Vance as her VP. Next election he runs as a Democrat with Richard Spencer as VP.
A GOP bloom of sufficient quantity to cause discoloration (red) in a country is called a red tide. They can potentially cause irritation or death to exposed creatures.
ShowNonetheless, in the ensuing chaos, becomes President
The one district in Nebraska being the only place voting for Dems is funny
I feel like only 1 (not faithless) electoral vote is almost more cruel
Republicans barely take it in a dubious 2000 Florida style situation while the Democrats go full ballistic on lawsuits against the Green party because they got like 3% of the vote in a different, irrelevant, state.
Country goes full fash (red flavor). Last holdout is the vanguard stronghold in the People's Republic of Chattanooga that votes entirely third party
Showthis is the second squirrel-election reference I've seen this morning – what did I miss?
Some guy had a squirrel named peanut and used it to advertise his porn making it famous.
New York took and put down the squirrel.
People like Elon/MAGA crowd and MoistCritical types lost their minds over it for some reason so it took over internet discourse for a bit in those circles.
used it to advertise his porn
this very interesting tidbit was left out of everything I read earlier today
now I'm wondering how the squirrel helped advertise. suggestively-shot videos of it gobbling nuts?? 😂
From what I've seen, him playing with the squirrel with some very convenient camera work, and while he's clearly wearing some very supportive underwear.
Stein wins New Hampshire for no reason, Trump wins the popular vote loses the electoral college, the supreme court declares the college unconstitutional and hands Trump the presidency

Showedit: forgot that they don't have Alaska, so that obviously goes to Trump
Widespread violence erupts over alleged fraud and voter intimidation. becomes interim president in exile while topples Kamala and takes power back to reign as president for life.
Six months later he dies.
I also think the Lib Dems are going to do better than expected.
Helium, because if you heat the take up, it makes your voice sound funny. This is empirically provable by US liberals.
There is no way PSL would get more votes than the Greens. I don't think PSL have ever cracked above 100,000 votes nationally.
