It’s okay to celebrate a victory today, but we have so much work to do. The hateful people are still here, and discontent over gas prices doesn’t necessarily mean that voters have turned away from the same dangerous ideas that got us here in the first place. This could be a very temporary recovery.

I’m concerned that a large portion may have chosen rightly, but for wrong reasons, and could just as easily be swayed back again.

    Sometimes it’s simply about being taken seriously.

    I’m a very busy person without a lot of time to play video games. If I sit down to play (and on Linux!), I’m absolutely not willing to spend extra time waiting on OS updates. It’s great that I can configure my system to respect my time and never interrupt me if that’s what I wish on a device solely used for electronic card games.

    It does exactly what I tell it to do, and that’s great.
