I’ve been telling myself that those of us with retirement savings will be fine. I actually think the market will thrive. Isn’t that’s the true goal of the republican party? But the people living paycheck to paycheck without any form of savings or investments, who happen to be the ones that voted him back into office, are screwed.

At least that’s what I’m telling myself.

I honestly had the same thought too. I don’t really get hungry, at least not the same way people describe it. It sounds awful.

Holy shit. I live in a prominent city in the Midwest and tickets are only $11 to $12.

Sure but I don’t think we’ve ever had a candidate with so many former hand picked aids warn us about the end of democracy if he’s reelected.

Don’t pay them any mind. Theyre just random people on the internet. I’ve found lemmy to be a pretty hostle place for questions asked in good faith. I did figure out the answer though. So he’s only giving people in a specific state the ability to enter into his little raffle. I’m not eligible because I’m not a registered voter in a swing state. This is why it’s a federal crime.

Not dumb. It’s a legitimate question if we’re talking legality.

“Joker” was released at boon times for comic book tentpoles, when the mere idea of superhero fatigue seemed laughable. But the genre has been proven to be less resilient in the post-pandemic era. “Joker: Folie à Deux” joins the ignominious trio of 2023’s “Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom” and “The Marvels” — all three are follow-ups to billion-dollar tentpoles that completely collapsed at the box office and became big money-losers. The sequel to 2018’s “Aquaman” tapped out with $439 million globally while the sequel to 2019’s “Captain Marvel” ended its run with just $206 million globally. Those misfires proved audiences will no longer show up simply because there’s a DC or Marvel logo in the title credits.

Because these kinds of movies have become blatent cash grabs. The market is oversaturated with the same formulistic plots reskinned with a different superhero. It’s insulting to consumers to assume high profile actors, flashy cgi, and a comic book character is enough to overlook poor storytelling.

I’m gonna assume your argument is is good faith. You’re absolutely correct about all of it. It fucking sucks. But the other side is the the same if not even worse. The reality is that right now the choice is between Harris and Trump. One of those two options will be leading the US next year. Not voting for Harris means Trump will be the leader.

If you want to convince people to stop voting for Harris you need to argue why Trump leading the US next year is a better outcome for Palestine. I haven’t been able to find a reason.

Unfortunately, there is a downside to allowing Trump to win. It’s the trolly problem and yes I will help pull the lever that kills people to keep even more people from dying.

Preachers kid who also turned out to be queer. I was terrified of getting spanked. Years of my parents telling me my ass was part of my private area and no one should ever touch it then my father pulling my underwear down and spanking me seriously fucked me up.

Iran has a right to defend itself.

I see where you’re coming from but drug use isn’t limited to addicts and even so addicts can be very wealthy.

I feel seen.

Agreed. I’d say being an “OF woman content creator” would work as a great way to weed out bigoted men too.

Camping outside golf courses.

I don’t see climate change talked about in the news much as a reason for not having children yet, antidotally, I’ve heard it a lot in person.

My dad gave me a choice between a pair of skates or a 10 year old used car when I turned 18 but I refused both and told him I wanted a brand new car. I ended up with a pair of skates. Getting to work was hard the next 4 years.

In this economy?

I’d argue this isn’t any celebrity though. Say what you will about Taylor and her music but she has successfully marketed herself as a wholesome role model for younger generations who has ran a nearly 20 year career scandal free. To them she represents more than celebrity fame. She’s a movement and if she says vote they will vote.
