Well it’s that and poor turnout, 60% voted, most Floridans don’t give a shit about the midterms except for the elderly who have plenty of time to kill and generally lean to the right.
Ohh good points. Hadn’t thought about it from this angle…I’m curious to see who they bring in as the deputy now, if its Stephen millers wife, you know its going to be all about the priorities you outlined above. I think he is ultimately going to fail at keeping the staff in line, and you will see more people leave and lots of leaks about what is being planned. But thats just my uneducated take on it lol.
Thanks. Well now I know…and knowing is half the battle!
This isn’t really a change per say, both those individuals suck as human beings.
Thank you! It must be quite a feeling to know your voice is heard!
#winning lmao. That was hilarious lol.
Ohh yah you made some great points.
Ignorant people don’t read
Yep and they still vote. But that is it right there as you stated…the question is how do you fix that? I certainly don’t have an answer for it, and now things are being jumped ahead to asking an AI chat bot on how to think or vote…so now is up to who controls the AI/LLM that determines what information people get back. Maybe we should give everyone in the country a subscription to a foreign newspaper like the guardian lol…yah that sounds like a horrible idea after reading that aloud lol.
Ohh the brainwashing is so true…just need to look at your local Facebook threads and just see the parroting of bullshit, absent any real facts. I really think it comes down to nobody wants to read anymore and some people, maybe its a majority, get their news from short 30 second video clips and thats it…so easy to be misinformed without doing any real research or effort. Oh well.
It’s wild that I really don’t know whether forcing these chuds to experience utopia would even be enough to convince them to want it.
Ohh they would likely secretly love it and then publicly bash it depending on what their local news tells them to think about it. Shit we just passed a major cut to property taxes and now they are talking about shutting down parks, libraries and other social outlets to offset the local budget cuts. The amount of people cheering it on is just ridiculous.
Ooofff I hear yah, I'm in the southeast and we just doubled down on stupid. Its baffling.
Yah Jefferries, needs to go…i signed the petition to have him removed for consideration, but what else is there to do? Im in a deep red bootlicking district so calling my senator/congress critter asking for change is akin to pissing in the wind hoping to taste the finest of champagnes.
Giant Swallowtail (Papilio cresphontes), looks like its got a bit of its wing clipped off unfortunately.

Greetings, I recently started a new raised bed in the yard out of old galvanized metal roof panels I had laying around as I ran out of room in the greenhouse’s. Planted some leafy greens such as Vates Blue Scotch Kale and Black Simpson lettuce. Seedlings just started to come out and I was impressed with how quickly the Cardinals came out to mow them all down. I put a quick screen over it for now to give the seedlings a chance, but man, wasn’t expecting that so quick. Anybody else run into that situation as well? Do they eventually let up once the plants mature a bit? Thanks for reading and Cheers!
