11·16 days agoThank you for your support! 👏🙂
Next election I’m voting 3rd party too! But again, that has nothing to do with a tech article, so not sure why you are going on so much about it. :)

11·17 days agoI’m having a fab day, thank you!
Today is super nice outside, so did a two mile walk listening the birds. Saw some butterflies. Stopped and chatted to a delightful neighbor who is selling eggs from her backyard chickens.
Then had lunch with my girlfriend, and after that visited the Space Museum. Now, in the gym, and chatting on Lemmy between workout sets.
After this, I’ll go home and mow the lawn and install a birdbath in my backyard. So today is awesome! Thank you for asking! :)

11·17 days agoYou sound really mad. Oh well.
But alas, this is a tech community, so I think you’re way off topic. I think we should get back to the tech topic, since I don’t care how mad you are that dems fucked up and lost an election. Twice. Not my fault. Oh well. :)

11·17 days agoStupid shit like what you just said is exactly why you all lost to Trump. Twice! LMAO
I didn’t vote for him, but man, there were MORE nonvoters than than third party voters. That’s how terrible you all were.
I proudly voted third party, and will proudly vote third party again in the next election. :)

11·17 days agoWhat the fuck have I ever said or posted that leads you to think I didn’t vote? The fuck are you going on about? I have been voting since 1986. You’re grandma was still hot then. You have no fucking idea what you are talking about.
Oh, but I have said both dems and repubs suck, so that must mean I’m your enemy. Ok. cool! lol
Your fellow democrats not voting is why we have our current president. Yell at them, not me. I think it’s hilarious that your own party screwed you over though! lmao

01·18 days agoI voted though, so not sure what you mean. In fact, I have been voting since before you were even born.
Care to explain your comment?

2·20 days agoWe’ve already had four different versions of The Tick: the original comic, the animated cartoon, the first live-action TV series, and the recent reboot. All of them were genuinely good.
That said, none of them ever became big mainstream hits. So those of us who truly love The Tick will probably always remain a dedicated minority. :/
