tw: 2024 election (yes its a trigger warning bc im fucking triggered)
concerning the news of the election, i am deeply disturbed and dissapointed in the vote thats occured. however, we must accept the result of this election. we need to come together and figure out how to proceed from here. i am with each and every one of you who are crying for our women that have and will die because of this dangerous abortion ban. my heart goes out to each and every immigrant who is being targeted. i pray every night for the innocent souls in ukraine and gaza who trump will do nothing to fight for. we, as americans, have a duty to unite and preserve the democracy that these united states were built off of.
on a more emotional note, if anyone needs to rant, feels unsafe, or is very emotional about this election, please know my dms are and open and safe space. you are all loved by so many and i, as well as many others, will ensure america has freedom and justice for all
everyone have a safe and peaceful evening.
with much love and a heavy heart,
dav

This is very thorough. Give it a listen. Walz isn't perfect - no one is - but he's a damn good choice.

I don't know if it's because I voted in the morning and usually I go after work, but there were more people than I have ever seen. More than that, there were more young people, more Queer folx, more people of color. Cried all the way to work.

Holy crow, "Coach Walz" actually sticks, doesn’t it?
I mean, it helps that he actually was a coach, and for years. Football, even, on top of all that. He looks like a football coach – the good kind, the one who teaches you how to win but also teaches you sportsmanship and tenacity and all the good things high school sport is supposed to teach.
Probably helps that he was a teacher, and at the same time.
Before Coach caught on, though, he was also kinda instantly “Dad.” Coach took over, for obvious reasons, but even with that, he’s… he’s very Dad. He’s very Midwestern Dad in particular, but regardless of how you pronounce it, there’s a lot of Dad vibes in him and they’re not subtle and he’s not exactly playing them down.
Which is kinda funny, but in a good way, right?
Because for years now, the media (and the Republicans) have been leaning hard on the idea that the GOP were the “dad party” and the Democrats were the “mom party,” and using misogyny and resentment of mothers to push the electorate right. The fundamentalist movement – today’s Christofascists – really fed on that, as all fascists do, with their absolute hatred of women.
It really breached the waters hard earlier this past year, particularly amongst the base. There was forthright talk about it, and there were memes, cartoons of sneering, vengeful Trump striding across the US, captioned things like “Daddy’s coming home,” about how he’s going to punish you (liberals, women, queers), and put you in your place for all the things you did (like exist).
Basically, Daddy’s coming home and he’s going to beat you into line like you deserve, while they – daddy’s little sycophants – will get to watch and sneer along.
Sure, that’s near-zero-content vibes, rather than policies – other than the threats of course – but the Republicans haven’t been about policies for a long, long time, and Trump wiped what policy there was clean away.
And the media have never, not once, not seriously, held them to account for it – which is why no one should give a fuck about their whinging now about the Democrats doing a “vibes” convention.
Particularly not now that Coach is coming home. Because yeah, Coach Walz… Coach Walz is also a Dad. But Coach Walz Dad isn’t coming home to punish you. He’s not here to beat you into line.
Coach knows you’ve had a rough time of it lately – but Coach knows you’ve kept going, that you’ve stuck to it, that you’re still in there slugging away.
He’s not going to fix everything, obviously, nobody can do that. But if you want some help, he’s more than happy to bring some, because…
…because you haven’t given up…
…and he is so goddamn proud of you.
He the Dad who says, “No, no, it’s okay. Let’s clean up this mess – and then let’s go win this thing.” Because he’s also Coach.
If you’re someone who really wants to pick a Dad, if that’s how you pick who you want to elect… which one are you gonna pick? If you want a vibes election, fine, let’s have one: couch-molesting psychopath Vance vs. Coach Walz.
Trump and Trumpism have absolutely no idea what’s about to happen… no, what’s already happening to them.
So while it may not be the most sportmanlike thing to do… let’s run up the score.
Let’s absolutely blow them out, on every level, shall we?
74 days remain.

"He was remarkable in the House [of Representatives]. He came [to Congress] winning a Republican seat. So he was a red to blue candidate. He came as the longest-serving noncommissioned officer in the military ever to serve in the Congress. So he was on a path of veterans affairs and the rest. He came having worked in farming as a child and so rural America was a big priority for him.
He's very popular in the House. Members are so excited about him because he's a wonderful person. He called me right after this, shall we say, opportunity arose. Told me: 'I know how to make this case. I know how to differentiate. I can get this done. I'm putting myself out there.' And, you know, here he is, governor of Minnesota, and he's putting himself out there.
And then he comes up with 'weird,' which becomes viral, and here he is. So, I have to give him a lot of credit for not only being a great governor, and values-based, and visionary, and all that,, but being quite an adept politician."
-- Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, on presumptive Democratic Vice Presidential nominee and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, in an interview with the New York Times.
I haven't done the research to confirm what Speaker Pelosi said, but that's a pretty fascinating historical tibdbit if Tim Walz really was the longest-serving noncommissioned officer in the military to serve in the 235-year history of the United States Congress! I've reached out to the Office of the Historian of the House of Representatives to see if they can confirm that fact.

The vice presidential debate is on October 1st – next Tuesday.
Weird Donald picked J.D. Vance to appeal to the more misogynistic bro culture types who worship influencers like Jordan Peterson and Andrew Tate.
But soon afterwards, President Biden withdrew from the presidential race and was replaced by Kamala Harris. So whatever electoral benefit there was to stimulating misogynist support for Trump has been more than offset by increased women's support for the Democratic ticket.

Politics
Is something we need to talk about in 2024.
The stakes are too high.
The US election really isn’t about policy.
It’s about the ability of democracy to continue. That’s it.
Do you want the ability to vote in the future?
Then you have no choice but to vote for the Harris/Walz ticket, regardless of whether you live in a red/blue state.
Project 2025 is that serious.
