  • The chance isn’t just slim. It’s astronomical.

    The chance of Cornell West winning is probably smaller than a bit-flip happening, switching your vote to another candidate. That’s how little chance your vote would have to make the country a better place.

    On the other hand, every vote not casted for the only viable non-Trump candidate helps Trump.

    I’m European and would love for you to have the option to vote for proper social democrats or greens (especially greens!). But please, every US citizen needs to do their part to not get fascists get hold of your country.

    It’s sad to say, but if you don’t vote for the democratic candidate, you might not have a chance to vote 3rd party in 4 years. (I don’t like fear mongering, but it’s a real enough possibility)











  • While I would agree under normal circumstances, that would just be abused in the current political atmosphere.

    Republicans are now already trying to impeach Biden for some made up reason while knowing it will never stick in the senate. Can you imagine how much more effort they’d spent in it if it would prevent Biden from running for reelection.

    Everything Trump has done should be enough to make him unelectable in the eyes of the voters, even if it doesn’t legally prevent him from running.


  • The reason there is a difference in how much light is reflected, is because the moon is in a different position. During a new moon, it’s on the day side of the earth (so in between the sun and the earth) while during a full moon, it’s on the night side.

    So there could theoretically be a gravitational effect, although I don’t think it would impact anyone’s sleep.

    If anyone is noticing a difference in sleep quality, it’s most likely indeed to do with the amount of light.
