Sure, but... is "too much discussion" really a problem that Lemmy has? This is kind of a threatening time for some of us, especially if we don't have a lot of friends irl.
I mean... you're kind of right, but this is a "read the room" situation.
FWIW most clowns are hard-working, skilled individuals who bring joy to people's lives.
You're right that it varies by state. For example, in Pennsylvania, the ballots have to be received by 8pm on Nov 5. Source: https://www.pa.gov/en/agencies/vote/voter-support/mail-in-and-absentee-ballot.html
Yeah, I know... it's easy to be cynical and do nothing... I have to fight against that feeling every day, I'm dealing with it now even...
A lot of thought went into that haircut, friend-o.
[The haircut] is wedgy, greasy, somehow old womany, and that, combined with Bardem's machismo, makes it unsettling. The actor himself is supposed to have reacted, "Oh no, now I won't get laid for the next two months," when he saw it.
Now the man behind the cut has emerged. He is a Canadian hairdresser from New Brunswick called Paul LeBlanc who has previously styled hair on movies such as Star Wars and Casino, and who shared an Oscar with make-up artist Dick Smith for his work on Amadeus.
Le Blanc says that his inspiration was from the crusades, "when knights and Muslims were murdering each other, and this was a typical haircut. It was a dangerous time and we wanted to make Javier timeless and dangerous at first sight."

It was kind of funny to watch Hanzawa Naoki, and they'd be like: "As punishment, we're transferring you to this city outside of Tokyo!" And they'd be like: omgz a fate worse than death. And I'd look up the city and it'd be a place with great public transportation, a famous temple, and amazing local cuisine.
Et tu, Bruta?

btw this is an edit of a cartoon that came out in October 1913, e.g. see this example in The Day Book of Chicago. I love the fact that he's saying "Punk!" in the original. See !truecomics@midwest.social for more about this character.
Several of E.T.'s comics are about the importance of voting. Early voting wasn't a thing back then, but it is now, and it has started in most states. See here: https://www.vote.org/early-voting-calendar/

Hey, aren't you supposed to be focusing on your classes?!? I hope that means they're going well.
I'm glad all that info I put in the sticky was helpful. I'm thinking of taking a break from doing so much social media. The last couple weeks have been rough. Anyway, other people are posting here so I'm glad to see this community will thrive.
