No, not really. Nobody asked what the effect was going to be on Biden being elected.
Also [email protected]. Not a lot of Zeppos out here.

Yeah, but the question was answered as if it was “what effect will this have on Biden’s chances of being elected”. Saying “Biden didn’t have a chance anyway so nothing” is an irrelevant statement. The issue is whether it affects the Democrat’s chances of having a winning candidate.
Kinda beside the point? The question is really what chances will the nominee have.
It’s not all about Trump or Biden personally though. It’s the people they appoint and install to run the government and who they have as advisors. Trump has shown he selects the absolute worst people, who tend to be a combination of malicious, criminal and incompetent. Biden, on the other hand, built a competent administration who is actually interested in competently running the executive branch for the positive benefit of Americans.
I’d say it’s a reaction to where ammosexual conservatives talk as if they have all the guns and would therefore win instantly in the civil war scenarios they masturbate over.
I sure haven’t. That’s a deluded conservative thing… they say they need guns to defend from an overbearing government, then they’re the idiots who vote for freedom-infringing authoritarians. It also hasn’t made sense in decades at best, given that they’d be gravy seals fighting army or police with their handguns while the government has helicopters, grenades, night vision, comm systems (like, they think they’d have cell service in a civil war?) and so on. Maybe some organized group could pull off an Iraq or Afghanistan style resistance, but it seems unlikely.
It sounds like everything is working, so… whats the issue?
“A gain” as in one more. Gain meaning “an increase in amount”
Down on the upside
Definitely could be. Not sure what other conditions might do this… dishydrosis covers internal reactions to foods as well as topical exposure to chemicals. I’ll note also that the one finger or one toe thing happened to me at various times, which suggested to me it wasn’t my skin being exposed to an irritant. Sometimes it was the same fingers or toes on both sides of my body, which is a common feature of autoimmune skin conditions.
That was how I felt. I was so pleased when it would go away for a while, then I’d notice the first little vesicles or bumps forming and be like fuck. I became sort of obsessed with monitoring it, though there was nothing I could do. I guess I could have gone to urgent care and gotten the steroid creme, if I had actually had insurance or $400 to spare.
I’ve had similar realizations about words like “across” and “again”.
How else would one interpret it?
Sounds like dyshidrotic eczema aka dyshidrosis to me. I had that for years. I’d get slightly different effects depending on precisely what type of skin it was on… finger tips, sides of fingers, tops, palm, sides of hands… also it was on my toes a lot. I’d get tiny dots under the skin, sometimes in clusters, sometimes red bumps like pimples, and they’d burst and leave ‘dry skin’ and peeling. It could be itchy as hell and also made stuff like washing dishes hellish, like my hands were covered in papercuts. My hands at times itched like mad, to where I’d practically strip the skin off scratching them, and that would help for about 1.5 seconds. It would sometimes go away for a week or two and then come back, but was present 95% of the time.
It was misdiagnosed by PCPs as athlete’s foot several times, even when it was on my hands, which didn’t make much sense but doctors were “oh yeah! it can be on your hands!”. But my hands were quite dry. The prescription steroid/antifungal always cleared it up and it would go away for months, but OTC antifungal creams and sprays did nothing. Hmm.
Anyway, I finally figured out it def wasn’t athlete’s foot and saw a dermatologist. He said dyshidrosis immediately. I’d suggest to see a derma if possible. Anyway, if it is that, the treatment, other than temporary abatement from steroids, is figuring out what the trigger is. It’s a pretty common autoimmune condition with ‘unknown triggers’, which I interpret as meaning it’s different for various people. For me, it turned out to be gluten. I had to go GF for Celiac disease and my hand & foot skin issue cleared up entirely for the first time in 20 years.
I use Gimp. There are versions for Linux, Mac and Windows.
Open the image. If it contains Exif rotation data, it will ask if you want to rotate it or leave it as-is. Choose to rotate it. It will also probably ask about transforming the color profile. Just say whatever to that as it’s not a huge difference.
Crop the image or do whatever, then choose “File > Export As”. You’ll get a filename dialog, where you can also specify the format in the extension of the filename, then “Export Image” dialog with a lot of options. Uncheck “Save Exif data” and “Save XMP data”, and click Export.
I think they made all of this with analog instruments. Good call on the tape loops though. That first link sounds reminiscent of much of their other work, which is more straightforward vocal ‘alternative’ sort of stuff. Thanks for the links!
Regular Broadcast is great, if you like that style of music (something like Stereolab, but more literary?). Microtronics is for sure mind expanding too. My fave is #17 because it’s just sort of insane.
It basically means using existing assets as collateral for a loan.
You mean like, how do you find one to marry, or what are best practices within a marriage to a zombie?
That’s not what OP said. They said it’s a useful cleaner recipe.
