"Oh, shut up Bernie" has become my new mantra.

 

Anyone on the far-left who still holds out hope for a real, progressivist revolution, led either by Bernie Sanders or someone else, has a long, long, LONG wait ahead of them.

 

 

Pete Buttigieg would be better off hoping for a TV gig.  (I hear Ellen DeGeneres's show could be on the market.)

There's a 18 page and growing thread over on Lipstick Alley talking about Kamala's ethnicity. When it comes to politics,  Lipstick Alley posters mainly consists of agents (white conservatives who infiltrate black websites by  pretending to be black),  Uncle Toms, fake militants, and Bernie Bros. One of the main posters who is going after Kamala has a Kylie Jenner avatar.

It's absolutely true and it's going to be one hell of a fight.  The voter suppression and disinformation campaigns are already in high gear. It will never stop amazing me how much power Fox "News" has over people.

 

Already I'm seeing people say that Harris called Biden a racist (she said the opposite) while challenging his past positions on busing. They are saying she believed his accusers. Meanwhile he never denied kissing that woman on the head and such. He even promised to do better.  She never said she believed TR. She said she had the right to tell her story. Ugh. This stuff drives me nuts.

I've been following the MA-Senate primary off and on, because Joe Kennedy seemed to be running just to run without much to offer voters. Ed Markey, the incumbent, is, sadly, being propped up by ex-Bernie cultists, but this is still quite an entertaining moment (and Kennedy's lackluster response probably shows you why he is currently beginning to crater in polling).

Jeannine Pirro: "Something's going to happen before the election, and [Joe Biden's] not even going to be on the ticket."

 

That's funny, many have been saying the same thing about Donald Trump. #NaturalCauses2020

    • And, to me it is a little bit hilarious that AW fans all over continue to refer to it as Egyptian Dust Recently elsewhere I've been running polls. When did you stop watching AW or What storyline caused you to stop watching AW. You may be interested to know that sticking it out till the bitter end is winning by a landslide. Next highest vote getter is - no surprise - Frankie's murder. So that covers like 60% & next 20%. Then the votes drop way down to 10% and well below but a wide array of reasons are given, including but not limited to  Justine Lumina Rachel having twins at her age, how ridiculous Mac's death the 90 minute show firing JC, George R & Dwyer Hmm, I know there are a few more, in the 1%-3% range but I cannot think of what they are. Sorry, my bad. Should have made notes but I didn't know I would be posting about it. LOL!!  
    • A kind angel has added both episodes to the vault (UK Diva TV broadcast version). 
    • Yes, I think that is the most likely situation.  TPTB were unhappy with the offer(s) they got from the tourism board in Finland, and decided the trip was going to be too expensive for P&G/NBC to finance alone.   I would also speculate a similar situation likely occurred a few years later with the planned location shoot in Egypt, which was also cancelled after the storyline had already started, and changed to Arizona.

    • In my usual account on my most used video hosting site with the video title  DAYS 1-8-15 Will & Paul Sex This is an edit I began when I was first teaching myself to edit & at that time I couldn't make it do what I wanted it to do. I pulled it up & finished it this morning. 
    • Or Megan is shot as retaliation for Dave's unpaid gambling debts...while Julie confesses she's the biological mother of Special Guest Star Barry Bostwick's little boy.
    • Finland seemed such an odd choice for a location shoot. ATWT went to Greece and later Spain while GL had Tenerife and there were others in that timeframe. But Finland not being a known tourist destination or offering the tropical/sunny atmosphere usually associated with location shoots seems off brand. Maybe they were negotiating a deal with a tourist association and it fell through.
    • I was talking about 1986, but the glimpses of 1982 are about the same. 
    • I skimmed some of the 1982 synopses; Steve was planning on an opening an office in Finland, and I think Jim went there as part of the preparation. That probably was a big issue; AW had already gone to San Diego that year, with Rachel/Steve/Mitch. And to upstate NY with Pete and Diana. I wonder if upstate was as expensive lol  AW in 1982 has always fascinated me, because of how messy it was 
    • That makes sense. What a messy time for the show. And any changes they made were mostly for the worse.
