How do you guys still exist?

Politics, huh? My government teacher worked on several high profile campaigns before he became a teacher, and he told us how tiredly it was. Good luck!

It is indeed tiring work, not quite yet, but 80 hour weeks are in my foreseeable future.

At least you enjoy it, right?

If you don't mind me asking, what party do you work for?

Subject: Re: How do you guys still exist? Thu Apr 14, 2016 11:21 pm

A shitty one. As they're all shitty.

Subject: Re: How do you guys still exist? Thu Apr 14, 2016 11:30 pm

Well, at least they represent you.

Subject: Re: How do you guys still exist? Thu Apr 14, 2016 11:32 pm

Rich people don't represent poor people.

Subject: Re: How do you guys still exist? Thu Apr 14, 2016 11:44 pm

They're not posting. You're not posting. Representation.

Yeah, I love what I do.

Why would I mind? I work in the progressive wing of the Democratic party, but I'm not really caught up in parties. As Harley said, they're all shitty.

I work in local politics, so I deal in specific issues and candidates. Put another way, thanks to ranked choice, and jungle primaries, I'm constantly campaigning for Democrats against other, shittier Democrats.

I see! Glad you work for the least asshole group of the bunch. I wish we didn't live in a first pasted the post system. Might be able to have less shitty parties then.

A dream world scenario is a parliamentary system. I'd even settle for a Far Left, Left, Center, Right, Far Right system, I just don't think it'd happen. I'd be optimistic that with the death of the Republican party taking place before our eyes, and Bernie making democratic socialism a mainstream thing, that we'll see a fracturing of parties, but when all is said and done Libertarians will probably just take the place of Republicans, and that'll be that (and even then Repubs probably got another 2 elections before they really get the picture).

HI EVERYONE

Am I late to the party again?

Subject: Re: How do you guys still exist? Sun Jun 05, 2016 1:19 am

Are you a bot named Anna? O_O

No, this is the wrong house.

I thought I double checked the address.

And no, I'm not a bot. If that was supposed to be a joke...I'm afraid it may have went over my head.

All things aside, hello again, and possibly, once more, goodbye. ^^

(like Potterwatcher, I just wanted to drop by and see how you guys were doing. *shrugs* )

Basshunter made a song The bot Anna which he later made into Now you're gone, changing the lyrics to english and about something else.

Ahhh, I understand now! Thank you.
It seems...oddly flattering <_< so thank you for that!

And I hope you're doing well, Tsukuyomi! How are you?

Me, I'm in university. I've also been writing...a lot. Garnered a bit of an online fan base. Looking into publishing. Oh, and nobody worry; it's not as cringe-inducing as it used to be. I've got maybe 500K words or so more under my belt now and yep.

Haven't read Bleach in ages...writing and studying (sometimes video games) take up most of my time but occasionally I will watch the random episode of random new anime series so there's that.

I'm glad you take it that way.

As for me, I'm going to answer your pm at some point. Just how I'm going to reply to Potter's at some point.

I'm happy to hear things go well for you. Do you upload your stories somewhere, like DeviantArt or some such place?

Yes, it was flattering, thank you~

Ah, Potter! I found her on my old tumblr so I said hi to her around the same time she dropped by here. It's nice to see so many old, familiar faces.

Yes, actually <_< I am not sure if I should post the link here (I've become warily cautious; thanks, Neo) but I'll send it in the PM.

I just started a new research program, so it's taking some adjustments. I might not be on Skype until I get settled in, but I'll try and post daily in the early morning!
