  • How in the world is it even possible for such a painfully obvious gibbering lunatic to not only run for public office, but quite possibly win?

    “Quite possibly”? I don’t know if you’re American or how closely you follow our politics, but… he did win the presidency, in 2016. Definitely disheartening and embarrassing for our country.

    It was exactly the shitshow everyone expected: He was impeached twice, but never removed from office. He pulled out of international climate deals, and the strategic nuclear one with Iran. His administration was corrupt, ineffective, fumbled the COVID-19 response, and catered to giant corporations at the expense of working Americans. The fact that he was our president is pathetic, but the worst part is it could happen again, but now with his fascist intentions and planned political revenge…

    Well put. Also, it’s not like there’s 1 single sky zeppelin that you won’t see again for weeks. Admittedly, I’m a bad about deadlines and preparing. I traveled for work for years and missed several flights. Not fun, but as long as your actual schedule isn’t too tight, it’s usually no big deal. I talk to the airline, they put me on another flight later, I wait around a bit or go home and come back for the alternative flight.

    At one point I lived like 15 minutes from a smaller airport. I could literally get there 30 minutes before departure if I overslept or something and usually made it through the quick security and onto my flight…
