Bobby spoke out. Well, OK, I guess it all depends on your worldview; you can see your place in the world as something to defend from those who might want to take some or all of it from you—or you can see it as a grand adventure, a place to make dreams come to fruition for yourself and for others. There is, of course, an in-between place—but the more you lean toward the grand adventure side, the clearer the choice becomes. More good comes from focusing on building a world where disparities aren’t so pronounced that they cause friction and reducing the inequalities that create barriers. With these things in mind, I’ve done my research and come to the clear conclusion that I’ll be voting for @KamalaHarris and @TimWalz this time around. https://www.instagram.com/bobweir/p/DBrusUYSIJn/ Mickey spoke out too. Fire on the Mountain! In dictatorships there are no rules of fair play, no freedoms of any kind. This rhythm is not the rhythm of a people but of one person. Liberty and freedom are rare in this world. America is our country where freedom is in jeopardy. Don’t take it for granted…it is worth fighting for. We need leaders like Kamala Harris to raise us up and to save our freedoms and liberty, the singular and most important value of America. Kamala has a vision, that vision is based on individual rights, to pray in peace, to have control over your own health, to protect our land and oceans.. everything. Most of the world is now in chaos because they do not believe in the rules, the rhythms in life that work, and the others that do not. You have only one vote to make your mark. This is one of the most important decisions you'll ever make.. The alternative is really not an alternative after all…this is no joke folks. Your fate, your world is on the line. @kamalaharris is the only choice VOTE!!! https://www.instagram.com/mickeyhart/p/DBr-_5lJ_yW/ Billy did too but not as explicitly.

My polling location has been open for 90 minutes. Isn’t it about time to unlock the Election Day thread?

I’m bringing diced fresh habaneros and scorpion Tabasco sauce to give my bowl some zing.

Not sure where else to put this. We’re having a potluck at our polling location tomorrow. When our VLM brought it up during the primary election in March, one dude (Bob) volunteered to bring chili. I knew right then what kind of “chili” it was going to be. Today I got confirmation. Bob sent out a pic of his vegetable beef soup with beans that he’s calling “chili.” Good grief. At least there’s no corn in it. And to be fair it looks like a decent homemade version of Wendy’s chili. And it looks better than Jade’s. But I knew it was going to be something like this and I’m going to have to keep my thoughts to myself tomorrow and try to maintain a professional work atmosphere. It’s not going to be easy.

Wait, Nicolle Wallace worked for Palin too? Ugh. I knew she worked for Dubya. That’s bad enough. But Palin? Wtf was wrong with her and how did she finally see the light? I still love her but…damn.

I’d tell him to take his pick.

They’ve got more zip than the plain Voodoo chips, and also the Hotter ‘N Hot Jalapeño chips which have the added bonus of not tasting like jalapeño. At all. But I’ll still eat them. I’m really not even that big of a fan of kettle cooked potato chips but I buy Zapp’s from time to time and Voodoo Heat more than any of the others. They’ve got a little tang like salt and vinegar chips then some of the flavors found in Cajun/Creole spices like paprika, cayenne, garlic, and onion. They don’t have much of a kick but they’re still pretty dang tasty. I haven’t seen Doritos Flamas at Kroger or Giant Eagle/Market District in awhile but I found them at Meijer today and bought a bag. I also found a bag of Tapatio flavor which I hadn’t encountered locally before and bought a bag of those. I’m taking them both to the potluck for us election workers at my polling location tomorrow.

On the eve of the U.S. presidential election, Q has died. Coincidence? RIP to music legend Quincy Jones, dead at 91. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cjr4n2490r9o

Fuck Stu.

He looks like he’s singing Mammy.

I put my cheese in the bottom of the hot crunchy taco shells before adding the meat. It melts and forms a glue that will hold the shells together if they happen to crack while eating them.

Another TD by Iowa. Lead 14-3.

You’re in the wrong.

We can all go to bed early and enjoy that extra hour of sleep.

TD Hawkeyes.

Wisconsin settled for a FG on their first possession. Then Iowa doinked a 56-yarder off the upright. It would’ve been a career long. Wisconsin leads 3-0 but Iowa just picked ‘em off and has the ball at their own 45. Waving to the kids on the hospital coming up. On NBC.

He didn’t even misspeak. “The only garbage I see is Trump’s supporter’s (garbage).”

Feigning outrage to fill airtime. Nobody actually cares.

Iowa shifting linemen before the snap. Gets one false start from Wisconsin then 2.consecutive delay of game penalties on the defense. Wiscy finally gets the snap off and is sacked. Then Iowa draws an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty. Whole lot of flags on this one set of downs. Now six flags combined on this one UW possession (who just dropped a TD pass).

Michigan turns it over on downs.

“They do not know the rule and it cost them a time out.” Nice challenge, Sherrone.

Trump doesn’t ask forgiveness.
