I don't want to see this horrible fucking idiot's take on anything.

Also fuck Donald Trump

People like him are why I still have hope in tech. May the machine bless him eternally.

Trump is the devil but Obama and Dems in general set up the conditions for him to be elected.

But I don't even like Obama.

I just buy used stuff from eBay and Facebook marketplace for all my non grocery needs.

There are more than the 8 colors in the starter crayon pack.

False assumption to think that third party can just unseat Democrats. Also, the Dems had more money than God during the last election and couldn't beat Trump. Also, Dems consistently neuter their own "leftist" bills (such as the green new deal) before they're even out of committee so I don't think they're going to actually improve anything materially for me.

You don't need to use the whole magic beans sneering talk with me, dude, we probably have the same interests at heart.

If you get enough actual leftist 3rd party House and congresspeople in, Dems have to make alliances with them.

 

I'm messing with alcohol markers and decided to get a set of red. I'll be doing red art for the rest of the month.

Yeah then do it again!

The problem is, unless you're very wealthy, it's obvious the current system we're living under strips workers of their material needs. It's easy as a populist to say, "I'm going to smash this system" and get a bunch of people who desperately need a way out to vote for you.

Harris unfortunately, and this is systematic with the DNC, is tied to the material interests of the capital class. There was only scolding but no vision of a materially beneficial future for Americans.

No talks of universal healthcare, universal pre k or going after big business. Hell, she was going to continue to genocide Palestinians.

I voted for her, but we've been fucked by both parties since I've been born. I want, nay need a leftist candidate who will break the system for us but I haven't seen one yet.

 

Little painting I did

 

This is Katrina from Sierra's Quest for Glory IV: Shadows of Darkness.

I'm still learning quite a bit but I had a lot of fun with blending her hair.

They are pretty easy to paint and fun sculpts

 
 
 

I bought this to cart the kids around. It just showed up yesterday.

Pros: The kids love it Great range Decent price I can take the seats off to pick up groceries

Cons: It took more than two weeks to ship and customer service wasn't helpful in tracking The derailleur came unturned (it skips from 4th to 7th) A bit of a rough ride without shocks

Overall I think this is a pretty great bike for a good price and it's changed my summer. It's a pretty cool car replacement!

 

Not sure if it's been posted but this music feels like a lovingly-cared-for blanket at your grandma's house.

 

This was a fun little kitbash/print. Everything is 3d printed.

 

So I received an estimate for solar on my roof, which has a good southern slant.

The panels, if financed, would cost about $200/month and offset my $150/month energy bill. The loan would be for 20 years.

However, I might refinance my home and pay in cash. Is now a good time to make this investment?
