I got one of those powerful rare earth magnets, so my lost screw percentage is way down, from 99% lost to only about 95% lost now!

To be fair, they're not always spoilers. Sometimes they're irrelevant! Probably spoilers this time, though.

Just updated this morning, shit. Working okay so far, though.

"Stop laughing," the department chief said in an interview with WLMY. "This is a wheel problem for us."

It's a bit different from his typical "hit people who bug him" style, but I enjoyed this arc. Thanks!

Yeah, swing states are where it's at. From Nate Silver's forecast, the states most likely to tip the election (as of today, Oct 9).

Don McLean has definitely substituted the chorus from The Saga Begins when he's doing live shows

You can't just extend the path with a sharpie! Who do you think you are, the president?

We could avoid this entirely, but the idiot Congress LIKES it. I don't think any other country has a debt ceiling like the US. Why? Well, because when another country's government (legislature, dictator, voodoo shaman) authorizes spending on something, they also authorize paying for it.

But in the US, Congress says (to the executive branch) you can only collect 50 bajillion in taxes, no more, no less. Also, you have to spend 55 bajillion on these programs, no more, no less. Then the president says, "uh, okay, but I'll need to borrow 5 bajillion to do that because of math." In reply, Congress stamps its collective foot like a toddler and says "NO NO NO YOU HAVE TO ASK US FIRST! Why are you drowning this poor country in debt you spendthrift!"
