I'm JD Vance, I'm uh running for Vice President.

Okay
Lmao for real that clip was almost as awkward as Scott’s Tots
It reminded me of a clip of mitt Romney greeting a woman saying something like "Hello, I like the weather when it's...nice outside." So robotic and strange. I knew right then he was one of the lizard people. Possibly a robot.
And how long have you had this account on Lemmy?
Okay
It was hard for Republicans to compete with The Onion's devastating exposé alleging that Walz' "aw, shucks" persona is merely a facade concealing his true "gee whiz" tendencies.
Link to the article in case anyone else hasn't seen it yet.
When reached for comment, a spokesperson for the Harris-Walz campaign denied the governor had ever lost his temper and told anyone to hold their horses.
Their smear campaign honestly made me like him more and I'm unironically considering moving to Minnesota as a direct result. The only problem is that I'm from the South and snow is scary.
Edit: Y'all are terrible at selling people on coexisting with snow
The snow and the cold are no joke. Buy yourself some good winter clothing straight off the bat. Don't go for those cheap off brands. Oh no. You want to be warm, you want the good stuff. And remember to layer.
It's all in the socks and a good, warm hat. Wools over cotton, wet cotton from sweat or snow in cold enough weather can be dangerous.
My sister got me a llama wool beanie a few years ago, and I will sweat at near zero. That shit is WARM.
Llama (or probably alpaca) wool is no joke. There's a reason why most yarns are a blend and aren't 100% alpaca, it's usually too hot.
I have alpaca wool socks and they are just amazing. So comfortable and so warm. They were something like $22 for a pair, but they've held up pretty well and they've been worth it.
Ideally no cotton.
Anything made with Merino Wool is phenomenal. Warm feet in the cold outside. Comfortable feet in the warm building. It’s wild.
Depends on what you do. Plenty of people only have to walk from car door to heated building so crappy winter clothes isn't a huge deal. There are those people that wear shorts year round based on that principle.
Yes, but in the car there is still a bag of appropriate winter clothes for emergencies.
"Dress for the ditch"
“Dress for the ditch”
this guy parties.
Years ago my battery died while I was at work. It was late shift so there was nobody else around. It had been snowing its ass off the tow companies were all backed up It was a 3-hour wait.
At sub-zero, Even in my car in my winter coat, that was brutal.
Now I carry a tightly wound sleeping bag in the trunk and a jump pack.
Born and raised in MN. Snow gives you a chance to learn how to ski, and isn’t terrible to drive in when you relax and are patient.
It's been a few years since my trip to Milwaukee but, I remember it being just a bit more slippery than the first rain after a dry spell. Still very manageable and, like you said, just ease into it and it'll become natural.
Just be sure to take it to the car wash every other week
Not as scary as the south.
My very first job was in Minnesota and the snow is not what you have to be afraid of.
It's the damn frigid temperatures. My wife and I quit our jobs, broke our lease, packed up and moved to California after one delightful -27F day.
packed up and moved to California after one delightful -27F day.
So it's May, 2017. We're just finishing our third winter in Ottawa, aka Canada's wind-tunnel, and a string of -40 days made this one super harsh. 5ft snow pack around the driveway showed signs of melting on the weekend and the dog poop left by negligent fuckwits is almost visible and ... ah shit, it's two weeks of hard snow. We can barely see through the tears as we realize when we talk about 'fool's summer', hope has made us the fool.
My first day at my new Vancouver-area job was 3 months later.
The key is not leave the house when its really cold. Also layers. You can always put on more layers
It's a lot easier to warm up than it is to cool down.
That's true
The lies that people tell themselves. Frostbite says bullshit to that. When it gets that cold staying warm is not easy. Especially when the wind starts to blow.
Cooling down in high heat: A cold drink, sun umbrella, and a ice pack under your hat.
Pot meet kettle
It’s not that bad. I swear California nights at 40 and humid are worse than 0 and dry.
Snow is easy to drive in if you learn properly and afford yourself extra drive time. Honestly, that old comment from some southern news broadcast is pretty accurate: “If you rarely drive on snow, just pretend you’re taking your grandma to church. There’s a platter of biscuits and sweet tea in glass jars on the back seat. She’s wearing a new dress and holding a crock pot full of gravy.” Just go slow and steady and everything is fine. It’s the folks that think they can still do 60 in their Jeep with 6” of snow and corner like they’re an F1 car on the road that are the problem.
Also, come on up, we’d love to have you! Just be sure you read or watch “How to talk Minnesotan” first. It’s on the test.
Adding to this...
Traction control does not make you invincible. The computer is going to step in and selectively brake wheels to try to keep you in control of the car. You can absolutely get the car in a situation that the TC can not mitigate. When that system goes off, it should be a glaring alert to you, that you overdrove the car and conditions, and you need to re-evalute how you are driving immediately!
And 4x4 and AWD only help you accelerate.
They don’t do anything when you try to decelerate.
It's 4-wheel drive, not 4-wheel stop. (Ok, technically brakes can be on each wheel, but that still won't help in sufficient lack-of-friction)
True, but that's what ABS is for. People don't generally have issues in town. It's when on the highway that people get stuck and unable to get out.
I've definitely been going 10 mph in city, signaled to turn, tried to slow down, and just coasted past my turn because that's how fresh snow over ice behaves. That's with traction control and ABS.
Traction control hinders me more than helps. But I drive a 2 door wrangler. Traction control on that thing is totally unnecessary.
From the south...it's more like the people in a Z71 with near bald knotted tired from driving only on pavement who have to swerve around you because you're only going 6 over the speed limit.
I moved from the south to Minnesota in recent years and will never move back. The winters aren't too bad after the first. Finding a knowledgeable local is pretty easy plus the Internet can fill in the gaps.
The winters aren’t too bad after the first.
Most people, similarly, don't know that Stockholm Syndrome isn't about the weather. ;-)
There are parts of the twin cities that are fully car free so you dummy don’t need to drive.
I'm originally from Florida and that's what I do. Although the light rail is a bit interesting sometimes.
USB hand warmers are your friend. Layers of clothing, so you can get less dressed once you get where you're going. If you drive in the snow, pretend your brakes have been cut and so you need much more stopping distance. Gloves that have capacitive finger tips so you can use your phone while wearing them are awesome. Walk like a penguin (shuffle feet, short steps center of balance always above your feet) on ice, so you don't slip and fall. Snow is reflective, like the ocean, so sunglasses are nice in winter.
Honestly? Same.
I'm currently getting my Masters degree in Public Admin so I can go to law school after I retire from the military. I wanted to specifically move to a red state because I know no matter what happens in November, red state legislature will always affect the disenfranchised population moreso than in blue states.
However, now that the military has left me in Texas for this long (10+ years by the time I retire), I'm fucking tired.
So, the tentative plan now (I still have 4 years) has switched from moving to Florida post-military, to instead moving to Minnesota, and then taking the bar in Wisconsin to practice (and yes, eventually other red states that I have experience in...like Texas 🤮). I think itll be better for my mental health which will help me top of my game for assigned clients.
Ugh, and to think, pre-2016 my plan was to retire and be a night shift manager at a Circle K.
Edit: Also fuck hot weather year round.
Wisconsin doesn't have a bar exam if that makes any difference to you. And there's cities in Wisconsin like Hudson that are on the border/river across from Minnesota.
Actually thats HELLA good to know. I havent really settled on anything yet since I'm still active duty/getting through my masters degree, and I've got about 4 years to retirement, but that is going to be a huge influence.
My buddy actually moved out to St Paul, and he says he's about 40 mins from Wisconsin's border. He's the one who gave me the idea because he's been begging my husband and I to move out there, as he's very Lefty and loves it, and he thinks we would too. I don't disagree with him, I was just in tunnel vision with my literal personal crusade, until he mentioned how close he was to the Wisconsin border. I was like "Oh I could definitely be a Public Defender there then!"
Thank you so much for the information!
My husband and I have a house in St Paul and we go to Hudson for lunch/dinner dates sometimes. It's quite close. And Minnesota and Wisconsin have agreements set up for living in one state and working in the other.
To jump in here with a clarification: Wisconsin does indeed have a bar exam. However, the Wisconsin courts offer diploma privilege to graduates of the Marquette and University of Wisconsin law schools. You do not need to sit for the bar exam if you graduate from those schools, but everybody else must pass the exam to gain admission.
Good news, though: Milwaukee and Madison are very blue cities.
Among all of the people included in the survey, no one finished below Vance.
The couch did.
You think he could finish a couch? I think it would eventually fake it, tell him what a good boy he was, and then roll over and let him sleep in the wet spot.
Like my mom!
Your mom never tells me she's proud of me... She just talks about how much better you are than I am.
My mom too...
Aww, buddy I hope you know that you’re the best!
I'm gonna get diabetes from all this wholesomeness.
I'm just grateful for my participation trophy!
I’ve never had a problem finishing your mom, not sure what you’re doing wrong
I think it’s hilarious somebody pointed out that he’s younger than Weird Al.
This messes with my head a bit tbh...
We grow up so fast... 🥺
According to a poll I saw a while ago he’s MORE POPULAR THAN TAYLOR SWIFT.
I was not aware such a feat was possible.
He should drop an album while he's on top!
He's repairing cars while talking policy.
He never did show us how to replace the vacuum-operated cruise control in his Scout. I was looking forward to seeing how it compared to the same system in my old Jetta.
It worked in making them seem like douche-bags.
Like they needed any help with that lol
What about the time he stopped to help an old lady push her car out of a snowbank? Did they even think to criticize him for that? I swear, GOP opposition research has gotten lazy.
The gop only does four things effectively:
Shoots kids
Sexually assaults kids
Accuses others of abusing kids
Avoids discussing all of those dead kids
Also their main purpose for existing: Benefitting the ownership class. They do that the best.
The father we all wish we had.
I appreciate that, I guess meme, going around that the reason he resonates with so many of us is because he's the father we could have had if Fox News hadn't corrupted him.
👆💯👆
BUT MUH TAMPON TIM MEMES
When I first saw it, I thought it was in suport of him until I realized who was posting it
Same thing for "all lives matter" where I thought it was someone agreeing with black lives matter the first time I heard it. Didn't realize someone could get so close to the point and miss it there
Same, I didn't get why All Lives Matter was a bad thing at first. I'm like "yes! we're all humans and everyone matters!" Then I saw who was posting it and had to reaccess.
There are campgain signs out that say "Law and Order Matters"
.... sponsored by the local Republicans.
I assumed it was a Dem sign then I saw who sponsored it, then I assumed it was a joke, then I realized that no, it's real and they are just that deluded.
Anecdotal, but relevant: I had forgotten what the "smears" were supposed to be until I saw this and went "oh, right, they did that".
BUT…. HE FED HUNGRY CHILDREN!!!😡😡😡
The other argument I saw against him was he admitted when he made a mistake one time. I just remember it cause that struck me as so strange. Like... Yeah that's awesome. Admitting you were wrong and trying to fix your mistake is a pretty damn good quality. It would be so annoying if he thought he knew everything about everything and never ever admitted he was wrong about anything even when he- oooooh it makes sense now.
A friend of mine was telling me about it, said Fox News was going on about how they "don't like the way he moves." Whatever that means.
"Twitchy Tim" is what Fox News decided on.
Why do these people always have to have some stupidass nickname for someone that’s not based on anything related to their platform or policies?
Because some of them mentally never left high school. So they pick 'insults" that were "funny" and made them "cool", back when they peaked, and those appeal to the rest of the faux-news followers who did the same.
Yeah it was a rhetorical question. I wonder if anyone has ever attempted to point out to them that the “other side” doesn’t use these kinds of nicknames?
There's many such nickname based on trumps fake tan. We can't really claim superiority on the nickname thing. It IS funny though.
Right online and in memes. Are those used by cable news networks and candidates at their rallies?
They don't know the difference and will claim that they do anyway
Because their god emperor TruMp likes those elementary school names and so they must follow
Because they don't want to talk about truth, the programs, policies etc.
Also how the hell do you sell Trump otherwise? He can't even align a coherent phrase to explicit anything.
Retards like to hear it.
I will admit I found "Tampon Tim" funny, but that was because of the irony in how it was meant to make fun of him but instead it helped spread the word about his history of progressive policies.
How are they going to smear a guy that pulled over to ask if I had everything I needed when he saw me changing my tire, checked again on his way back and handed me a cup of coffee with pastry?
Later, he was my neighbor for a while. Came over when he saw me working on projects, let me borrow tools I didn't have, and occasionally he'd borrow one of my tools. Such as a little trailer I had, and one tire had a slow leak, and when he brought it back he had replaced the valve stem and greased the wheel bearings, pumped up all four tires, and took it through the wash.
None of this is true, but like you could try to talk shit about a guy like Walz, but to anyone that knows him, what kind of dude he is, you sound fucking dumb and weird.
You know when like some new friend comes along and privately tries to talk shit to you about one of your old friends, not knowing that you're old friends? That's how it feels hearing any of these god damn super weirdos talk shit about a genuinely nice, honorable dude like Walz.

Information for MSNBC:
not that great still maybe Democrats should stop acting like Republicans
would not have to put out so much effort to make themselves look good if they would just support the people
Tim Walz: 40% positive, 33% negative
Taylor Swift: 33% positive, 27% negative
Kamala Harris: 48% positive, 45% negative
? Walz has gotten tons of progressive policies through with a single seat majority in his state
Gauranteed paid family and medical leave, universal free lunches, passed protections for trans people, put over a billion into affordable housing development, taxes corporations more, expanded union protections, and more
Not only that, but
He was a faculity advisor of a gay-straight alliance in the 90s when that was not very socially acceptable at all
He's got a strong pro-union background
He has not acted like a republican
It's nice to be able to rely on having dog shit stupid takes from the same username all the time. Consistency is key. Keep it up.
The bar was so low all he had to do was order donuts without acting like a serial killer
