 Never ascribe to malice that which is adequately explained by incompetence.

 You mean the one where Trump peacefully handed over power? 
-The one where there was an insurrection where NOBODY fired a gun and nobody died (besides the guy that died a day later from a stroke)
You mean that day?
No. 
I am not. 
No amnesia here, I remember it perfectly.

 I was referring to the “insurrectionists” but yes, thank you for reinforcing my point that Jan 6 was a peaceful protest.  She was unarmed MAGA protester.

 Its our law.
Its in the framework of our country’s constitution to prevent states like California that have the densest populations from getting all the attention from candidates.  Ignoring the states like Wyoming that are the least populous.

You CANNOT have them both.
It is a more fair system and forces a candidate to appeal to the country  as a whole.

 > It was to convince the states to join up and that they wouldn't get pushed out completely by the larger states. 

That’s what I said… 
 I would entertain a popular vote option.  Would be easier to make counting votes uniform and probably less fraudulent.
Everyone gets an on chain vote that is auditable.

 There’s definitely something to this.  
I haven’t sorted it out yet but I suspect that its all my head.

We live in a simulation and…

 Hello nostr

 Its a shame when I go to swoop something and I can't because the captcha is a never-ending loop. ... 
 Having to disconnect my VPN to complete a captcha loop is an annoyance that makes me more angry than it should. 
 Lol, my car payment and my banks 
 Need a backstory ASAP

 Only if you’re not curating your social groups.   Go out of your way to surround yourself with people that think like you do.  
I was going to say, “good quality” people but thats just my filter. 
Set the bar a bit higher, eliminate the sub par in your life and be the change that causes changes.

 Id say you’re correct.  Im referring more to the main pillars of your moral compass. 
 My girlfriend is the reason I'm voting today

 Kalshi seems way less one-sided. 

Watch the peoples pundit (Baris) with bob barnes as a guest yesterday (11/4)

This guy is a savant when it comes to sports betting. 
 Judges never declare partisanship.  You have to watch their record.   Easy to research if you care to. 
Usually whoever appointed them is a nice indicator.

 I saw a white one at my sons school the other day and he said it looked like a lego car.  He’s not wrong. 
Still cool af that its bulletproof tho
Haha 
 For the last 75 years I agree.  
This
Time
Is
Different.

Trump is not the traditional right in the same way that JFK wasn’t the traditional left. 
They are/were a threat to the system you’re referencing.

 If you need Trump to win for Bitcoin. You do not understand Bitcoin.  
 We need trump for everything else. Bitcoin will be just fine. 
 He’s right, you gotta take the extra step.  Pls Don’t send traffic to X

 I agree.  
I want to believe that hes in on btc and believes what hes been told but had work to do. 
I think Ross is too much political fallout and he’ll retract. 
 It actually doesnt sound like him.

 Non voters are the undesirables in any functioning society going back 5000 years. 
While I agree we don’t really have a “functioning society”, opting out is a COP OUT.
Whether it’s Bitcoin, politics or religion:
-Be productive.
-Educate someone in your sphere of influence.
-Make the world a better place for people more like you.
YOU MAKE A DIFFERENCE

 I'm perfectly happy being partisan, and only just this year switched from the Independent party (... 
 Well you’re almost there.  
Nobody wants to take your rights to abortion.  Trump is Pro choice.

 Yeah Its a good phone.  
I give it a B
A lot of software that requires google location services or has abusive spyware in it so this phone wont let you install those.  
I was prepared to go dumb phone but I REALLY wanted a good camera so this was a great tradeoff.

In addition to call/text, I just want:
(Works great listed below)

Camera (fantastic quality)
Music/Podcast player (spotify / fountain)
Bluetooth (perfect)
Basic browsing (brave/duckduckgo)
Calendar app (proton suite)
Email (proton suite)
Nostr (primal / amethyst)  

Cons:
-Some software isn’t available (thats a tradeoff I’m okay with)
-Navigation- Mapquest sucks but it works.

nostr:note1fw0u36p380jyu6xytass8z7z6p6psu4t3mlvcf45k2p7a05cgrmqrru7ru 
 So I ordered the phone and intended to switch carriers.  
I could care less who I’m with.  
I put the sim in and it worked immediately.
