    I used to be able to use Snopes to debunk bullshit on the internet, but now even that has been lumped into the dreaded "lying liberal media" by some of the more extreme communities out there.

    I am really tempted to make a sign with how I think people in CA should vote and taping it to the back of my seats tomorrow. Hopefully ill be giving a lot of people rides to the polls.

    It just occurred to me that some of Vile Rat's old EVE comrades might be better business people than Trump.

    The amount of meme hype and stupidity from my liberal peoples who fail to research stuff is infuriating.
    A quick list disproved by snopes:

    Preganant lady shot by police in New Orleans (originally New York)
    Russian skin cream that turns black people white (picture is of white male with extreme sunburn)
    Pope Warcrimes (started by crazy white male in midwest)
    Black student killed for holding saxaphone (used picture of a black student killed by police for riding in a stolen car with a handgun)

    A friend of mine LOSES HIS SHIT whenever someone debunks something with a link to Snopes. "How are they THE source for information? Who made THEM the authority on everything?"

    No one, man, they just do some decent checking into things and source their results...

    "Your actions have displayed a gross disregard for the rule of law in their recklessness and, frankly, their brutality. Furthermore, I have witnessed here in this court a shocking lack of remorse in you, the defendant. Consequently, I will be sentencing you to the lengthiest possible sentence in a federal facility. There will be no possibility for parole," says the judge, wearing a five dollar footlongs tshirt

    Gosh, the last thing I'm waffling on. It has support from Don Cheadle and Leonardo DiCaprio, but its costs my state money.

    Long lines in early voting is a sign of enthusiasm but not necessarily voter suppression. Long lines on actual election day is a real concern as that is when a state should be ready and staffed up to handle the volume of traffic.

    Google "my election ballot," and it'll bring up all the federal/state/local races, referendums, etc. for you.

    And usually free wifi tends to be kind of shitty, or at least the places I've gone that have it seem to suck.

    I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

    When I worked on Cruise Ships, free wifi was basically like, a light to moths. Literally any place with free wifi would be completely swamped by crew members. In fact, if you found a place with free wifi that wasn't known about, you'd normally try to hide it from the general populace, because otherwise you'd lose all that beautiful speed when there were like 80 people.

    If Trump won do you think he'd start using Air Force One or do you think he'd consider that a downgrade?

    He would probably contract out Trump enterprises, llc or whatever to "upgrade" Air Force One for the low cost of $5mil, which basically would consist of some gold paint.
