It's vital, over the next few weeks, to remember that Republicans, foreign powers, and extremists will be working to make Democrats and people who vote for them angry with each other.
The goal will be to create turmoil in the party and its followers, and to disrupt the Harris campaign before it gets going.
Do not be fooled by bots and extremists that try to make you hate your allies.
@Saltssaltgirl Lois McMaster Bujold's Miles Vorkosigan Series, read by Grover Gardner, are outstanding.
Last Saturday night, for reasons involving a 4000-year-old Chinese board game and Olivia Rodrigo, I found myself wandering around downtown clutching a bottle of whisky in a paper bag.
Less than 24 hours later, I was on a boat, wielding a gaff, while one of my crew mates bled from a wound suffered in hand-to-hand combat with an armored beast from the deep.
In our first couple of hours of a dedicated #Mastodon portal fundraising for Kamala Harris, we've raised $4472.24 toward the current goal of $5000. What a great start! Thanks to everybody who's contributing, boosting, and sending vibes. https://secure.actblue.com/donate/mastodon-for-harris

Well, people have been moaning for months, "Are these really our only choices?"
Now that they're not, many people are ... excited.
@Sobtanian Redfoo, obviously.
Watch the entire thing: #KamalaHarris privately met with #California’s prison system and convinced them to give gender affirming care. #uspol 🏳️⚧️ #trans
It's quite funny that in the midst of the crowdstrike thing yesterday, someone tweeted - afaict as a shitpost - that southwest were unaffected due to running windows 3.1. Then digitaltrends published that claim using the tweet as a source, and are now being quoted themselves as a source.
AFAICT, it's entirely bollocks. Same with the claim they still run Windows 95, that's from the same lazy digitaltrends article, misquoting another misquote from 2 years ago.
I watched this video about how the Mormon afterlife works and I have never seen a people who needed D&D in their lives so badly.
There are all these levels, and side levels, and revival conditions and diagrams that look like dungeon maps.
A lot of suffering could have been avoided if there were just some well-placed roleplaying clubs out west like 150 years ago. Send these people some D20s ... jeeeez
@grammargirl The obvious campaign button is a comma and a musical note.
