All of those things you want to do to prepare for the revolution or whatever? You can still do all of them and vote.

I mean, a few of the things I want to do to prepare for a revolution are explicitly illegal, and I don't have enough commas in my bank account to get away with treason.

And this has any relevancy on voting.... How? Either you're going to the do the illegal things, which can be done on any day other than Nov 5 or you aren't going to the do the illegal things and you can still vote on Nov 5.

I don't give a shit about your personal revolutionary savior cosplaying fantasy; it is entirely non-sequitur to the topic of how voting is still the reasonable choice even for the revolutionarily-motivated.

I'm not going to vote on November 5th.

Because I mailed my ballot on October 23rd.

Your masturbatory revolutionary cosplay fantasies are still non-sequitur nonetheless.

Yes, it was an attempt at a joke. Hence me saying I don't have enough commas

Guess today's not the day for jokes.

Today is the day we need jokes the most.

I know a guy who was working for the Fire Department in New York on 9/11/2001.

He told me that when he brought a newspaper on 9/12 he was disappointed that they'd cut the comics page.

He said it was a day he really needed to see Charlie Brown and Lucy.

Guess I need better jokes then

[–] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

Jokes are like pizza.

No matter how good the one we have is, we dream of something even better.
