Trump and immortality should never be uttered in the same sentence. If that man lives to 100, I'm going to reference the OP's comment as the one who doomed us all.

Should stipulate that with "Young white men without college degrees" vote overwhelmingly Republican.

The issue for Republicans in the US is that young white men without college degrees won't start voting until they're in the mid to late 30's so Democrats have an advantage with young voters since the majority of active voters are in the 18-30 bracket are all college educated.

I feel like the whole McCain influence is horrifically overstated. Arizona is purple because Dem's started winning Maricopa county.

Agreed! Cheers. Perfect is the enemy of the good. I'm to the left of any Democrat running in this state, but we're far better off under Democratic leadership than Republican leadership.

I think Dems have a fair shot with either. Harris will likely carry the state by about 5-8 points which will impact Republicans down ballot. Ayotte isn’t as popular as Sununu, and abortion rights will likely be a bigger factor here than immigration.

It’s unfortunate that even with good conditions they’ll be unlikely to win the Executive Council since it’s so terribly gerrymandered. Decent shot to flip the House and Senate.

That’s a cool tidbit. I literally visited this subreddit for the first time because of this word. I had to look up a list of national parks to even guess at it. Seems that you’d have to be from the south west to even have a decent guess at that one.

Chemistry matters a lot. I think the chemistry was off here.

Mainly, Sarah didn't mesh super well with Lauren. I felt like all their prompts together didn't work. As an example, with the final prompt Lauren wasted absolutely no time with the chest burster bit rather than giving the other two a chance to get in on the gag. Sarah didn't even do anything in that bit.

I felt like someone like Izzy, Josh, or Jess would've done really well in Sarah's slot, and Sarah would mesh much better with someone more patient like Vic or Zac who would've done something with the "CEO of Google" set up.

Hope we see more of Sarah since I think that's the first time she's been on the show. Would rather not pass judgement on her comedy style when we just didn't really get that much of her.

if you don’t prefer STEM majors you’re told that it’s a useless degree.

This is more of a reddit thing than anything else. STEM is certainly valuable, and we should focus on it, but men tend to pursue degrees in the STEM field more than the liberal arts/healthcare fields. Reddit is mostly comprised of men so you get a lot of pro-STEM at all costs rhetoric.

I'm hoping that eventually we see more initiatives that push men into the healthcare and child care fields. We really should strive for more gender disparity in early childhood education, for example.

She’s been in vogue for well over two decades. Not exactly due for a revival.

The Odyssey is a bit more entertaining on the whole. It may be worth visiting within your next few reads as many characters in the Iliad show up in the Odyssey, at least in passing. It may be best to read it while those characters are still fresh in your mind.

I'm from New Hampshire. Grew up in Manchester. I can confirm that the Red Arrow Diner is mediocre, but New Hampshire isn't great for food in general.

The main reason why Red Arrow Diner does well is because they're one of the few restaurants that's open 24/7. There's a bunch of bars on Elm Street and Manchester and a lot of drunk people eat there at like 1-2am after the bars close.

roaster instead if trump.

Jeff Ross is finally good for something.

My only pushback is that Republicans have no real bench to speak of. That isn't to say that they wouldn't recover somewhat between now and then, but I have a strong feeling that even with another Trump loss that they won't begin to truly shake MAGA Republican deadweight from their state-wide elections for another cycle or two.

The only active Republican that I think could even win the Presidency is like Nikki Haley. Other than Larry Hogan, the rest of their field is dogshit. And before someone says Sununu, I'm from New Hampshire. He's a dogshit candidate too. I hate when people throw his name around because they've never listened to the guy speak.

I suppose are definitions of right wing/left wing just differ which makes more sense. Broadly speaking, my definition of left wing would be someone that supports the Democratic party and the inverse for right wing/Republicans. I'm mostly use it as a catch all to define the pulse of a subreddit. I wouldn't consider this subreddit nearly as left wing as something like politics, votedem, or even fivethirtyeight, but it has a left leaning bias due to people that hang out here.

Bro, I use RES. I track the number of upvotes/downvotes I give. I know who's right wing and who's left wing/centrist. There's a lot of left wing people here. Maybe some right leaning people that hate Trump.

Like many of you here, I was banned from modpol for God knows what at this point. I don't remember that sub being so right wing. It feels like it's really shifted over the past few months. Reading through the threads there is physically painful. Just a ton of right wingers hand wringing over utter nonsense. This whole interview stuff is such a nothing story.

By contrast, this sub has become increasingly left wing, though one benefit is that the quality of posts here has improved as the better users from modpol migrated here post-ban.

The future prospect of a Trump administration seems somehow worse than it was mere days ago. I do not like any of these people. I want them far from government, and I want to give them no ability to dictate the quality of my life.

I know he has a legitimate medical condition, but his voice is unpleasant to listen to. I tried to listen to his speech at the Arizona Trump rally, but I just couldn't take it and tuned it out.
