This was the funniest skit SNL has done in years

Also betting on who you think will win, doesn't always match with who you're voting for.

This goes beyond electoral politics. Political discourse as a whole in that country is fucked.

Great example of manufactured consent

Go read that article, especially the “Academic Studies and Criticism” section.

Both parties are the “get the job done” party. This administration has continued to give unconditional aid to Israel, and has not done anything remotely resembling a penalty to them for conducting a genocide. The only difference is the rhetoric.

I’m not saying don’t vote for Kamala, I hope she wins. My point is that all this anger should be directed at the party for alienating large swaths of the population that should be their base. I can empathize with someone who has family in Palestine or Lebanon that does not feel like they can in good conscience vote for the party that is supplying bombs being dropped on their loved ones.

This should be an easy win, Donald Trump is an incredibly unpopular candidate, and we should be outraged at the Democrats for making misstep after misstep in this campaign.

I am not a 3rd party advocate. Jill Stein and her ilk are grifters.

UPDATE: I fixed it!! It was the PSU.

So I just built my first PC in like 20 years. Everything was going fine, I was installing Windows and got to the network setup step and my wifi was having trouble staying connected. I figured it was because I hadn't set up drivers yet, so I thought whatever, no problem, I'll just move it by my router and plug in an ethernet cable.

So I powered off and moved it, and...dead. Nothing is happening when I hit the power button. No fans, no lights, nothing. I've made sure no cables got jiggled loose or anything. Maybe I shorted something somewhere on the motherboard? I can't see anything without fully disassembling and having to rebuild it. I really don't want to do that, but I guess I'll have to unless I'm missing something obvious. I'll test the PSU tomorrow but I doubt it's that, these are all brand new parts.

Any ideas?

Specs:

AMD 7800X3D

ASRock B650E PG Riptide WiFi

Sapphire Nitro+ Radeon RX 7800 XT

2 x 16GB Crucial DDR5 RAM

Seasonic GX-850 PSU
