Now I want some Blue to not feel left out. Not sure I’m making another trip to the liquor store though. Maybe if I get up early.
Rogan also doesn’t believe in science. He thinks bigfoot might be real and the moon landing is fake. He’s lived in CA forever and didn’t even believe they had bears (or maybe mountain lions - I know it was one of the two). That’s just being completely oblivious.
The dude is very curious about the stuff he’s curious about. But a complete buffoon when it comes to actual science. I know many many dudebros who fit the exact profile. All deep into bodyhacking or some shit, aren’t sure about vaccines.
Now - all that said - I think he’d actually trust his advisors and not be as stupid as Trump in that regard. And he does have basic human empathy - another advantage over Trump. But his susceptibility to snake oil salesmen is a big concern.
I’ve decided to take my first bubble bath in 20+ years. Seems like a better time than any.
I could handle all that conspiracy shit even too when he wasn’t talking politics. His podcasts leading up to 2016 made me stop the downloads on my app.
Arizona flipped to 54% red on predictit. what happened?
Rogan is 5 foot 7. That ain’t gonna fly in USA#1
I feel like between now and whenever the election is called just gets more and more dangerous wrt Trump supporters setting fire to a ballot storage depot, or some other crazy shit. Also shit like nobody can vote in Atlanta until 2pm due to glitches or something.
But the time after the polls close while the votes are still being counted - especially if that drags into Wed. - seem particularly vulnerable to craziness.
More like Dicksmell Crotch, amirite? Sorry, I’m buzzed.
There was an a+ poll that had Arizona tied a few hours ago :(
Just got the ok from my wife to go grab a bottle for tomorrow. I’m in.
I’m watching “The Queen’s Gambit.”
It is good.
A lot of men making dumb bets. Virginia for Trump has been hammered. These were the same people betting McGregor v Floyd.
MAGA money is flying in again everywhere except FL, which actually pisses me off, I was holding dem no’s in that state to sell and get some cheaper dem shares.
also all the undecideds in previous polls were republicans in AZ, shocking news I know.
It’s disturbing I know what that means.
(Discourse being annoying)
I don’t really know Rogan at all, but I have no sense that he would do those things. Like what has he done for those causes now? It’s not like celebrities can’t do anything. Kim Kardashian was a big player in getting Trump to pass some criminal justice reform. Saying he supports (some) progressive causes is cool, but it takes a huge commitment and hard work to generate the political will to get anything done, let alone transformational policy change.
People love to dunk on the ACA, but that was a massive effort by Obama, and he had to twist arms to win support from members who (correctly) believed they would lose their seats if it passed. I just don’t see a guy who is known for being agreeable to insane crackpots as having the temperament to push through big change. Like if you’re not strong willed enough to tell Alex Jones to fuck off, are you really gonna be the guy who railroads the Senate into passing M4A? Not plausible.
Pennsylvania is down in the 50s. Apparently Trump has a better chance of winning FL than Biden does Pennsylvania. If you just looked at this map it looks like a 55/45 race
The bottom line on the Rogan thing is if you can live in 2020 and think cancel culture is a top 5 issue worth spending time and effort on - then to me your priorities are so far out of whack I don’t trust you to run anything.
And that’s before we even begin to get into giving Alex Jones a mainstream mouthpiece to show his cuddly side or w/e.
Is Joe Rogan a dude I want on my side? Fuck yea.
Is Joe Rogan a dude I want leading my side? Fuck no.
Back to memes please.
