I got one of those surly cornerbars (offbrand) and they're fucking great, would recommend to everyone. Easily the most comfy handlebars I've ever owned.

Also currently trying to piece together the perfect small size at most medium weight bicycle EDC pouch to chuck in my panniers so I can field repair my entire shit and also help other people.

Pretty sure I'll put some bar ends in there just to slap them into random bicycles so people don't core sample themselves. I am the velocipedal crusader, you will be saved from doctors having to extract a tubular 21mm cross section of yourself so they can figure out what the fuck you managed to lose because you didn't think to put 50 eurodollarcents of bar ends on your stuff.

Lol

New Hampshire town of six splits ‘first in the nation’ vote between Harris, Trump

The six residents of Dixville Notch, who voted at midnight, were evenly split between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump — a reflection of the tight 2024 election.

Wikipedia

Dixville Notch, New Hampshire

Dixville Notch is an unincorporated community in Dixville township, Coos County, New Hampshire. [The village] is known for being the first place to declare its results during the New Hampshire presidential primary. It is located in the northern part of the state.

[...]

The [Midnight voting tradition] was first organized by prominent Dixville Notch resident Neil Tillotson (1898 – October 17, 2001), who was traditionally the first voter. He would reportedly hold his ballot over the ballot box while watching his wristwatch. At the moment of midnight, Tillotson would drop the ballot into the ballot box and the rest of the town's residents would follow suit. Since Tillotson's death from pneumonia in 2001 at the age of 102, the first voter has been chosen by random ballot beforehand.

[...]

In popular culture

The community's voting tradition received a nod in the 2002 third-season episode of US television program The West Wing, in an episode entitled "Hartsfield's Landing", named after a town modeled on either Dixville Notch, or its companion, Hart's Location.

I wish someone would text me 20 times a day to remind me what's going on today.

This is just a running laugh track of FBI bullshit. They found a Nazi, set him up with literally everything he needed to do a bomb attack from start to finish, then "caught" him the day before the election.

Also, note where our man Merrick says how they found out about this guy - "Confidential Human Sources". Not spooky spyware or anything, dude just told someone who snitched. Nobody talks, everybody walks.

I salute our brave secret police and their ongoing campaign to catch guys they convinced to do terror plots in the first place. At least this time they actually picked a Nazi instead of a socially isolated mentally ill kid or something.

There were Jeeps passing by grandma's (mom's mom) house my mom tells me ,school was ended prematurely there

Israel seems to raid Tulkarm very frequently these days

It's almost as pointless as actually voting! 😱

Results will be posted in another thread after the election, but you can see the score as it unfolds live!

EDIT: ITS OVER, RESULTS BEING POSTED SOON

oooh the Silent Majorty stands with us!

yeah, sure

meanwhile, the actual majority is sleeping though this. Just like they sleep through every election cycle. If you could somehow ran on "oh, was that today? I had no idea" you would be the eternal incumbent

If you must vote, don't vote for the people committing genocide. No personal narrative can undo the reality that your vote will reflect what you support. No website link, this aint about self promo.

Like that's a self dunk. Why did Democrats vote with Republicans? Why weren't they instantly executed? Why were such opportunists allowed in the party?

Tucker Carlson Warns Elon Musk 'Will Be Destroyed' if Kamala Harris Wins

Elon Musk "will be destroyed" if Kamala Harris wins the 2024 election, according to Tucker Carlson.

Speaking with former President Donald Trump's White House strategist, Steve Bannon, on War Room on November 4, the day before the presidential election, the former Fox News host said that given Musk's position as a federal contractor, he has "the most to lose" by backing Trump.

"I mean, Elon Musk joked to me, and he has, I think, many times, that he's going to go to prison if Trump loses," Carlson said.

"I don't know if he's going to prison but he'll be destroyed for sure, and he's doing it anyway, so that gives a lot of different people heart."

Musk holds over $3 billion in government contracts from his companies, SpaceX and Tesla. During this election, he has been an active Trump supporter, surrogate, and strategist.

He has spoken at Trump rallies and actively posted to his X (formerly Twitter) platform in favor of Trump. He also initiated a lottery prize for registered voters in swing states, monetarily rewarding them for signing a petition on the First and Second Amendments. The Justice Department is investigating this lottery.

Carlson spoke to Bannon about what Trump will do and who will rally around him if either side contests the 2024 election results.

Carlson said he believes that if the election is contested, Trump will have more people supporting him in 2024 than he did in 2020 because people like Elon Musk have a lot on the line and will, therefore, work harder to ensure a Trump victory.

"You see people with a lot to lose on Trump's side, and they've said so publicly, and they're marked for destruction if this doesn't work, so they will be at Trump's side in the aftermath if this is contested," he said.

He added, "I'll pray that it isn't [contested], you know. I think all of us do, on both sides, pray that it's not contested, but if it is it's not going to be Trump out alone..."

Bannon was released from prison last week after serving a four-month sentence for two counts of contempt of Congress after not responding to a House Select Committee-issued subpoena investigating the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Since returning from prison, Bannon has spoken to Newsweek about his election predictions, saying he is 100 percent certain of a Trump win.

It's going to be pretty funny if the GOP voting boards in red swing states scream something like "Irregularities!" based on nothing but conspiracy theories and vibes. And not only does the popular vote not count - the electoral college doesn't either because next month the GOP SCOTUS judges make Trump president.

One Democratic operative suggested that the stars had aligned to bring about the ex-president’s collapse at the exact time Harris has been surging. “Aaron Sorkin couldn’t have written it better,” they said.
