So, the Economist has endorsed Hillary Clinton. [link] It has now endorsed the Democratic presidential candidate for four elections in a row.
Well, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Wow, that's an interesting factoid.
I hope the card turns up, msbelle. I'm just about to give up on mine and get a new one. The downside of having a small credit union where the tellers all chat with me and notice that I've changed my hair is it's really embarrassing to have to tell them I've already lost my new card. I mean, they are nice about it, but I am embarrassed. So, have been putting it off, but not for too much longer. At this point it's more about remembering to do something about it during business hours, which is also a challenge.
I just had a second sandwich, and now I'm going to stay up "late"and watch another hour of television because I am the grown up in this house.

Luckily I started the day with a breakfast sandwich, as lunch was an airport taco and dinner was extremely nummy fresh sushi in Hollywood. Los Angeles, I am in you! And my luggage even made it to the destination with me despite a hair-raisingly close connection in Houston!

Woo! Welcome to California, have a wonderful time!
I should not be awake. But I was thinking, would it be clearer to phrase that penny question as "what is the shortest process" instead of "what is the minimum number of steps needed"?

I am not liking what I'm seeing on Five Thirty Eight.
I am so dispirited about this election. Trump says thing after thing that isn't true and nobody cares. I had a friend e-mail me about my opinion on Gary Johnson while saying he couldn't vote for Clinton because she is a criminal and massively evil. I have another friend share right-wing articles that are almost complete fantasy. It's just so depressing. Doesn't anyone give a shit about what's actually true or not? Hell, even journalists spend far more time on the optics of stories rather than the truth.
This whole e-mail thing is so frustrating. Doesn't any journalist realize that Clinton using a private server rather than a state department server doesn't really change much of anything? She'd still have to use a secure system for classified material and a regular system for normal e-mail. You have exactly the same issues. You can't fucking criminalize state department people just doing their jobs. Then Comney sends this letter because there might be new evidence in the future, but probably not? What the fuck is that?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I just need someone to bait Trump into saying something stupid, preferably today. It shouldn't be that hard!
And I think 538 is just clickbait now, but focus on the electoral vote mapping.

What's disheartening is how many stupid things he's already said that his supporters just blithely ignore. Or embrace!

True, true. But I do think the Alicia Machado stuff (for example) did hurt him.
ION, I gave blood after work yesterday and forgot to take the band-aid off my finger until this morning, and the skin is still a little weird and wrinkly, three hours later!
