Oh my please don't even put Walz in the same category as Vance, who seems to be universally hated.  I can't imagine Walz wearing eyeliner either or admiring a cretin like Peter Thiel also.  Vance the VP candidate was created in a lab run by billionaires which is the main reason he is such an awful human being. Everything rotten in the billionaire class is exhibited by Vance on a daily basis.

Walz isn't exaggerating his record, either.

Meanwhile:

Not surprised Gold is adopting the network framing of pushing the Harris campaign to 'let it go' re: mics.

More on this:

 

And now:

In other news - few weeks ago Last night Martha Byrne (Lily ATWT) had a social melt-down (on a Saturday Night no less) where she wrote post after post on "X" (formerly Twitter)  about how terrible Kamala Harris/Tim Waltz is, how the GOP has been there for her, asking "What LGTBQ rights did Trump take away?", and telling people how Tulsi Gabbard was thrown under the bus by Kamala Harris

She lost a few fans last night after her "X" rant - on a Saturday Night of all nights!

So, as we are well aware, Worm Jr. dropped out of the race for POTUS to align with fellow loon, DonOLD Dump, and he has been trying - and basically failing - to get his name removed from ballots.

Yet...my newspaper has a front-page story where Worm Boy is trying to get back ON the NY ballot. The article even wonders why, since he has dropped out! Another grift? Insanity? Hmm.

I think the plan was to get him off swing state ballots and have him stay on in blue or red states. Some of his cultists were hoping to get some Trump supporters in those states to support him and take electoral votes from Harris. 

It's very kind of her to tell queer people they aren't going to be losing anything. 

@Vee Thanks for all of your articles and videos. I have to admit I don't love the video of JaunDiced being booed because it will probably make a lot of the press and the true believers praise him as noble and going into enemy territory, wah wah wah, but it's still funny to watch.

Nate Silver is still giving Trump the edge, because of PA polling and Harris not getting a convention bounce (which doesn't even exist in recent years). I do think it's going to be very tight, and Trump has the media and rigged election boards on his side, but you can see just how desperate he is based on these types of stunts. And of course the "pro life" movement is mostly staying quiet, and all the media figures who excoriate Harris for flip flopping are eating this BS from him up.

    • Another lot of skipped episodes to look forward to when the time comes on Videoland. So annoying. They have skipped so many, especially in  season 15 where they skipped 19 episodes throughout the season. Is it just me or is the vault down? It's like a different error message this time so it's hard to know if it's me this time.
    • thank you for uploading the rest of season 12!!! I hope i can get them soon the links down! Thank you again for posting the B&B classic episodes to revisit!!!!
    • Hmm, okay.  BTW, my only problem with Kai & the surgery story is where is this guy's family? And, another BTW, I think I may have inadvertently added to that rumor from last year about a male descendant of Justus Ward. You see, that is an idea I could really get behind! Like I would pay to see those scenes. And, true, I did hear it ... [sheepish grin]

      Yes they can. While rare, its not like soaps in the past havent said F that and used flashbacks of a scene even when a recast has been done. OLTL used to do that
    • Well, I am glad to know that & for it to make sense, so thanks for the info &  the perspective, also. At the end of AMC 1.0, I thought the new young talent was really quite good, but I missed Eden & NuBianca just ... well, I wasn't 100% sold on her & Bianca was so important to me. But then, Tad & Dixie were also important & yep, there's another problem, for me I mean. I'm not your typical AMC fan but I hung in there anyway. I know what you mean because it wasn't as good as it once had been but it was still Agnes's show in Pine Valley. Some of that is a bittersweet nostalgic clinging to the past, I guess. By that time I'd been through so many show cancellations. AW, Santa Barbara, PC, The City, GL, ATWT.

          Betsy Snyder, when she was at DAYS was part of the WGA winning writing team before she died, tragically far too young.  
    • Yep Edmund and Tad went under cover to infiltrate the... Willow Lake (I think?) old folks community scandal that was exploiting Phoebe, etc.  (Which at one point led to Edmund rescuing Brooke from quicksand--common around Pine Valley I guess

      ) EDIT maybe I'm wrong.  I found the quicksand scene

      But for the story all I can find is Edmund going undercover as the gigolo "preying" on older women, Eduardo (no one would recognize him with that disguise and name ) so the drag must have been.. a different story?    
    • But then he HATES the original Heather Webber (Cher's half sister played her, right?) and we know what happened when Robin would step into the role a year after this.  He does seem pretty spot on about actors who show promise otherwise.  It's interesting he knocks OLTL early on (though I loved all the recently released episodes from this era we got) but does give a lot of credit to the actress playing Cathy despite earlier complaining about her story.  And over all, while quite negative, his various pros and cons on the shows sounds about right with what I know of the shows at this time. This was a July dated issue of the magazine but and I know they date mags a month or two in advance--obviously when he wrote this he didn't know Lovers and Friends was gonna go off the air (in May I think).
    • You know one of the soap outlets posed that question just last week: Who do you want Trina with Spencer or Kai? And, of course, the picture of Spencer was NAC. I said, well, a lot. I chose Kai. I said that Spencer had been an entitled brat & that some people valued him over her, when I valued her above all others. I guess we'll see.
    • You're right. The only thing I can think of is if GH finally decides to bring back Spencer.
