Points taken! I'm still leaning more no based on my experience in the field, but this is important food for thought since I haven't voted yet :)

More people voting who would have otherwise not voted is good, but I also wonder if, for ex, Zohran's volunteer army would be as strong during a presidential year. Or does it then take away from people getting on a bus to PA for the presidential? I could see it maybe making sense in the midterms.

Can you define what you mean by "doing fine?" not trying to be cute here--genuinely curious!

A surprising amount of normies I talk to are like "hell no that's too much" so I don't think it's my politically poisoned brain.

I think it's too much going on at one time. Spreads everyone who is responsible for getting info to voters (already stretched media and campaigns) too thin. In NYC we have so many layers of candidates (not to mention RCV on some races and not others) that I'm not sure how you could cite a study.

Ok honestly impressive to keep up this level of embarrassing behavior

Whenever I'm on the Amtrak to Albany I think, "what if I just didn't get off this train and kept going all the way to Canada..."

It would be great to have PDFs of these hanging out somewhere! NYC will more than likely have to replicate a lot of this.

What if I started looking into every security camera I saw in the style of Jim from the Office? I feel like that's a fun bit for me and the .1% of people who see it while having to scroll thru that footage for what is prob an unpleasant reason.

I was a DNC delegate of his in 2016 and that experience made it clear to me that he was a magnet and booster of grifters.

There used to be whole documentaries and news specials about "neo-nazis" and we'd watch and be like, wow what fucking freaks. There was always a question about whether these people could *EVER* be redeemed.

Man imagine judging people by the standards of THIS time....just a bogus argument.

Also some of us are clinically depressed and are working 3x as hard as others to find any shred of a reason to keep going...I can't stand when someone tries to knock down what little optimism I can muster!!

I was doing a thing for awhile with a numbered list and using a randomizer app to generate the task's number and then how long I'd be doing the task! I need to get back into it.

I love hearing about other people's oddly specific ADHD coping strategies!! I've been having a hard time finding something that sticks lately and have been winging it. Not great.

Years ago I had a US Constitution app on my phone (it was just text of the document really). In the description it said you could use it to win political arguments. My friends and I had a good laugh about that, but now I think I need to redownload it...

Been thinking about the Riyadh comedy festival and how that was deemed socially acceptable by so many people. I think the two things are related.
