Re: Whatcha thinking about now?

it was 90 today. NINE TEE and it's November 9.

It's now almost 8 pm AND 77.

So when people are all like M, how come you are so calm today with all the hell going on in the USa.
I'm dying here. The heat has zapped out all my anger.
I live in hell.
hell. So this is nothing new to me. :=I:

-32C with wind, chiming in from the northern arctic.

I missed you too! Does it have to be a viking or are we just going for nice man with danish citizenship now? There aren't many vikings left.

At this point, I'll take a nice man!

Alas my friends, I was not elected county coroner.

(If you see my FB, you will know of what I speak)

I'm sorry, Thal.

I am thinking I have not seen this size of protest since the 70's. Hate to say it,but I think this has lit the fuse to a very angry new young boomers(new generation) If you were young in the 70's this seems very DejaVu.

In the coming days we will see if this is only the beginning.

meh. if you haven't been watching the news..it's just been a regular wed.

I don't watch the news because of this. Everyone on fb is like IT'S THE BEGINNING!
biatch please. It's another wed for us minorities. Absolutely nothing has changed. We've been living in a crappy world already. I'm giving everyone a week of freak outs before they realize they still got to go to work and they still got to pay their bills..Trump voters and all.

Re: Whatcha thinking about now?

Depends very much on just how the Gov reacts to this,heavy handed will be like throwing gas on a fire. I think Obama and Clinton will both try to sooth things,and best that trump does not get in there way,because if he does try it may be his long 4 year daily issue.

Maybe I am just getting to old for this dog dodo.

Most of the new people I meet these days are international, but I'm on the lookout. Still kid-free?

Guys I'm sorry but I don't get how your system works. Clinton gets the popular vote but somehow trump is the winner? To an outsider that seems... a bit screwed up homestly. I suddenly get why I've heard so many say that their vote doesn't count.

Re: Whatcha thinking about now?

It is complicated,and many here have called for the electoral collage to be abolished. What it comes down to is each state gets a weighted number of votes for the electoral collage,and it is supposed to allow each state to have equal election rights. I myself think a system that uses PEOPLE as one vote per person would be better.

Originally it was intended to keep popular idiots from attaining the highest office in the land.

It seems to have outlived it's usefulness.

It is like daylight savings time,a stupid idea that may be compared to cutting off one end of a rug and sewing it onto the other end to make the rug longer.

all things crumble with the passing of enough time. Order returns to chaos....And even dictators die because we are ALL mortal,just depends how death comes from old age,or from a gun.

Re: Whatcha thinking about now?

Yea... That's just dumb. Especially the 'winner takes it all' attitude. I do sort of know how it works, I've ended up with a few of American friends over here who really don't want to go back... but the only thing that would mke sense to me is a vote counting for a vote... keeping 'popular idiots' off the iron throne obviously didn't work.

Also to reinforce the "voting power" of slave states.

Re: Whatcha thinking about now?

Thank you Thal for that very educational link,I will remember to mention it if someone argues for the electoral collage. Enlightening.
