2020 was… truly unique. It was so hard to stay away from doom scrolling, and I (and many others) were pretty disillusioned by the sad fact that so much of our country legitimately supported the Orange Man. I didn’t get a wink of sleep the night of the election because I genuinely considered it to be a make or break decision for America.

My point is that looking back on it, in the end the only real difference I made was at the ballet box. This year I’m going for the Head-in-the-Sand approach. I’m done with the political memes. Done with the Twitter screenshots. It just riles me up and this year I’m gonna do my best to fight that.

    First off, I appreciate the response this is what I was hoping for instead of just downvotes.

    No I distinctly don’t think what I’m doing is worth uplifting I think it is a bad situation and I’m doing what I hope makes it worse more slowly than my other options. Biden is a piece of shit I know that, and I’m being affected by the “booming economy” too it’s a bunch of lies. My company is about to fire a huge chunk of people I might be in there, and even if I’m not I’ll have to watch as my friends lose their jobs.

    “keep their seed fed on bids anywhere from five to thirty, typically on some mandatory-minimum bullshit” I don’t know what this means could you explain?

    What are you doing this election? What can we do to get out of this situation? Why do you believe in your choice at the ballot? I’d rather not vote for Biden but I also believe until things are changed from local up, voting third party is the same as not voting in the sense that it puts the decision in other people’s hands, and I’m super not voting for Trump.
