“Does not represent” as in “My government does not represent me when they abolish the right to abortion and ban library books”.

They’re in charge but not actually acting with the will of the people they’re in charge of in mind.

I have the nomad, and I love it. I use it every day for taking meeting notes and it hasn’t let me down yet.

Their current OS is android based (I think) and works fine, but I am excited about a Linux version replacing it.

I’m on my third upgrade machine after getting my first printer years ago. Very rewarding hobby, much recommend.

Thank you.

I was the captain of the debate team; this guy does not understand what an appeal to popularity actually means. Experts carry weight that general population does not.

Anyone can be lonely at any time, even surrounded by people who love them.

I’m happily married, I love my wife very much, she is my favorite person and I would be devastated and lost without her. Still, sometimes I feel lonely.

Sometimes I think about my dad who isn’t with us any longer and I feel lonely. Sometimes I think about work stress and I feel lonely. Sometimes I feel lonely for no damn reason at all.

None of that has anything to do with how much I love my wife, or her ability to “provide”; people are just complicated.

They’re being downvoted because one platform being shitty doesn’t excuse another from it.

Yep, many people complaining about semantics here don’t realize that when the US calls something “the left” they aren’t referring to “leftism”, they are referring to a metaphorical graduated chart where democrats are on the left hand and republicans are on the right.

“The left” on this chart is anyone leaning towards the Democratic Party, where “the right” is anyone leaning towards the Republican Party.

It’s frustrating that we let this become a dividing topic, because it is pedantic at best.

This is a weird way to say “Trump backs out of debating Harris on ABC”.
