The modern porn industry is much more independent than it used to be. Most creators control and own their content and choose where it gets uploaded initially. In the past, the porn business was absolutely abusive to their stars but I think it's much less the case these days. Filmmakers have to fight for actors because if they don't treat them well or pay them their worth, they'll just post their own content directly to their fans. I'm sure there are still huge negatives but I just don't think it's as bad as it once was and I certainly don't think the porn industry is something to be upset about these days.

That's not how any of this works.

At the end of the day those roadblocks are just laws. Laws that he has been cleared to break as long as he does so under the pretense of an official act.

A head inside a snow globe is a pretty good metaphor for what it's like living with ADHD. The shaken snow globe is unmedicated, and the settled snow globe is medicated. Things become clear and you can "see" the things you couldn't focus on before.

Her campaign was awful. Her whole deal was that she was going to do more of what Biden did. You know, the guy we didn't want to reelect so she stepped up to run? Also she pushed right the whole time. She gunned for centrist votes. She should have leaned into Walz's policy ideas on a broader scale. In fact, walz probably would have had a pretty good chance if he were the DNC candidate. She also campaigned in the strangest places. Why on earth did she rally in Houston? She could have gone anywhere in the swing states with the Beyonce performance but she went to a city that was already going to vote blue on a state that has a moonshot's chance to flip from red. She should have spent more time in GA, PA, and AZ. But hindsight is 2020.

Clearly not

He was running against trump to be president. This was also before the RNC picked a candidate.

He wasn't even the VP pick when Trump got shot. That happened a couple days later.

Yeah a couple days before. The whole story is BS.

That's a month and a half of rent. You know what I would give to be a month and a half ahead on rent right now??

Every election I've ever voted in has had at least a 20 minute wait. I've mostly lived in medium to high density population centers my whole life. I've voted on voting day, I voted by absentee and there was a line for the drop box during COVID, I just did my early voting as a first time Texas voter and there was a 45 minute line to use the voting machines, not even a pen and paper ballot. I've never not seen a line at the polls. It's always been strange to me thinking about the number of folks who DON'T vote vs how many people I personally witness voting every season. But then again, many people don't like standing out in a heat wave while it's raining so I guess it makes sense that a lot of them don't go.
