@rokkinbobokkin @jgold rog, agreed. (i'm a vet, i say "rog" alot...it means "yep/i understand/gotcha/ok...etc.)
@sonnydenbow @rokkinbobokkin @grapho I support younger, humanist/leftist candidates at the state level. Unfortunately i live in va & politics here closely mirror what happens in dc for the most part. conservative "liberals" who dominate-except when they completely fail at living up to their campaign promises & we end up with a r gov.
@rokkinbobokkin @grapho 😂 😂 😂 gdi...i don't doubt that you're right....fkkkkkk 😆 😆 it actually would be funny-if it wasn't causing this country to come off the rails...
@rokkinbobokkin @jgold true enough...but they've been there so gd long they've lost touch with the vast majority of people in this country-who are also the largest voting block in the country now...only they've been screwed so many times that they've stopped looking for aaaany help from politicians.
@rokkinbobokkin @grapho Shahid Buttar was the candidate-and he was pulled off the rails by allegations of staff mistreatment. Sanders had to deal with the same. Only Sanders had a lot more experience in the political realm. I don't think Buttar was savvy enough to pull it off, but I can't fault him for trying. Another AOC with some staffer background...one could only hope.
@rokkinbobokkin @grapho They achieved that same scan on Sanders. They lost me forever after the debacle of 2016. I supported Sanders again in 2020, but after that I was well & truly over it. It would literally take someone like an AOC-with nothing to hide-and alot of $$ which for those of us on the Left(ist) & not aligned with the d party-is a challenge.
@rokkinbobokkin @grapho I'm a Leftist-farther left than the standard "liberal". We need to primary her from the left-the same way AOL won. The level of organizing would have to be tremendous, but I'd wager it could be done.
@grapho @rokkinbobokkin an out of date era that no longer exists & is actively causing harm.
@rokkinbobokkin @grapho My issues is the same, & not surprised about her choice of who to support-we've seen that repeatedly. i'm more pissed at the abject lack of interest in actually changing policies that would help ppl. alot of talk & not alot of action, but always the demand to vote because "this is the most critical election of our lifetimes!!!!" It's all about donors & BS. I'm over it.
.
@rokkinbobokkin @grapho pelosi & Schumer both have to go. We're getting no where with boomers like them in charge. (full disclosure-i was born in late boomer range, but much greater affinity with millennials & younger-who are going to have to deal with the catastrophic effects of boomer actions/decisions)
HiPOD 10 May 2022: A Song of Ice and Dunes
Actually more like a series! This is part of an acquisition of a sequence of HiRISE images centered on one of the North Polar regions of Mars that showcase a continuum of dune burial processes. Features of interest are dune forms, ripples, polygonal fractures and thin ice mantles.

@iLovAussieSheps I like Slow Horses-if you haven’t already, highly recommend Ozark (didn’t think I’d like it) & Outer Range-it’s interesting & getting weirder-I like it.
