Thrive to spite them

Trump managed to really piss off Swifties. He was posting AI garbage that made it seem like Taylor Swift supports Trump. And while I'm sure there are some fans who do support Trump Taylor Swift has never endorsed anyone and the majority of the Swifties (I assume) do not support him.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

When I was in Canada last month, the house at the top of the hill across the street from my cottage had a Trump 2024 flag on the garage (next to a Trump 2020 flag, and the other outside wall was plastered in signs that read "Trudeau is a disgrace" so we were all pretty confused about what country this guy was registered to vote in).

I don't think I've seen any presidential candidate signs in my neighborhood, it's only local candidates so far.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

A house around the corner had a Kennedy sign as early as July 4th, but I'm pretty sure it's been taken down since then. Must be the brain worms. Or the dead bear cub.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

A friend was just sharing photos of people with signs for Kennedy in western MA this weekend, which, OK.

Our wings are not tired.

Not a lot of signs up here, just old Trump ones and local candidates. Blue flamingos are popping up all over Florida.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

The other day, we ended up near a bunch of cars with giant Trump flags and something about Jesus. One dude had half a cardboard cutout above his windshield. These people are not well.

Coding and Sleeping

There is one Kennedy sign in our town, but they also used to have a DeSantis 2028 sign so I don't think that Kennedy vote is taking away anything from the dems.

No signs around here -- even local, which I do recall seeing a bunch of previously. Our next door neighbor had a Trump sign last go-round but nothing now. Our new neighbors just moved in, and they are a nice, young couple in whose yard I would not expect to see a Trump sign.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

When it became obvious that Kennedy was taking more votes away from TFG than Harris (and also that he was a bozo), Kennedy's right-wing bankrollers have moved on to pushing Jill Stein.

Oh, I did notice when I was at the beach a couple of weeks ago that there were many fewer Trump signs than last year, even. Maybe I just missed the truck with the huge FUCK JOE BIDEN flag, but I'm hopeful he actually took it down.
