The downvotes on my last post have made me realize that all of jakefinn's posts to date are completely and totally normal.

Move along folks, nothing to see here...

This is dispatch. Be on the lookout for two individuals riding electric scooters connected by about 10 feet of rope, with the front scooter towing the rear one. Witnesses report that the conjoined pair are weaving in and out of traffic and zipping through tight spaces like something out of a 1980s arcade video game, all the while carrying on a shouted conversation between them.

Ishmael and Liumingke gave good advice above. You can also check out the event/activity listings on this site, find one or several that interest you and begin to attend them regularly. Friendship with other attendees is then likely to arise naturally out of shared interests.

"The world needs a Lone Ranger Resistance organization ("Who was that masked man?")."

The Anonymous group is pretty close to fitting the bill with the Guy Fawkes masks.

Sort of relatedly, a hat tip to the anonymous merry prankster who reversed all my upvotes on the last page while also upvoting my posts.

@sean1: The thing is that it's a weak field, so I don't really support anyone in particular enough to sing their praises. But Buttigieg (fake), Biden (senile) and Klobuchar (bully) are all just blatantly awful. I suppose I could live with Sanders, Warren or even Bloomberg, although they each have serious flaws.

As far as Pete's donor stats, yeah, a lot of people seem to have been bamboozled, which is disappointing to see. And I don't think the fact that he's the poorest candidate gives any reassurance that he won't cater to the interests that have ravaged the country over the past generation. Maybe the opposite.

Also, while I am not a huge fan of Sanders and therefore am reluctant to carry water for him, I don't think the UK results necessarily translate to the US. Corbyn was abysmally unpopular, due in large part to his humorlessness, links to violent extremists and allowing anti-Semitism to fester within his party. Sanders has none of those faults and polls as the most popular active political figure in the US. Plus Labour's traditional electorate was fractured by the all-important Brexit issue, and there is no comparably powerful wedge issue at stake in the US.

An oxymoron. MAD is bi-directional, hence the "mutual". Both sides have reduced leverage over each other under MAD, because threats to use conventional force have low credibility in light of the extreme risks involved.

Turn that smile upside down, sezuwupom. Expressing positive sentiments about fast, comfortable, affordable and environmentally-sustainable new rail connections is not allowed by the comments police. Anyone who is not sufficiently glum will be ridiculed.

Grace is staffed by American doctors and, in my experience, provides the same level of expertise and standard of care that you would expect to find in a good clinic in the U.S. I highly recommend them.
