Most Latinos do not work in the fields. Many of us have been here for several generations. There are many types of Latinos. (Disclaimer: I voted, phonebanked, and canvassed for Kamala.)

I was just extending the bait, didn’t realize people would take it seriously. I’ve added an “/s”.

Haven’t watched it all the way through yet. It’s got Warren G over the opening credits (possibly to get around copyright?) so it’s at least partially edited.

In reality, the Amazon driver’s pay has been cut, so they ask for a tip. You don’t tip enough so they beat you up. If you could afford to order from Amazon, why didn’t you tip enough? Obviously you’re not supporting essential workers in these trying times. They’re just working hard, feeding you, keeping you clothed, protecting you. But they have families of their own to take care of too. You’re not even ordering enough so they can afford to take a bathroom break.

Note: this was meant to be: /s

Angela Lansbury was in an Elvis movie? Far out.

The more I think of it, I wonder if anyone could have won that election given only 3 months. If Obama had been VP, and suddenly made the candidate, could he have done it? Could Hillary have won it? John Kerry? Maybe, but it would have been a miracle.

Kamala did a solid job. Note how people are debating how she could have fine-tuned her messaging or policy proposals; they’re not talking about gaffes or complete incompetence. She lost with a deficit of 30K in WI, 80K in MI, and 150K in PA. A definite loss, but not comparable to the landslide losses of 1988 or 1984. Biden was headed for that sort of landslide loss, but Kamala turned it into a much closer contest.

Hey PugJesus I’ve been meaning to ask… do you have an opinion on Robert Harris’ Cicero novels? I really enjoyed them, and they seemed fairly historically-accurate but I wasn’t sure.
