My plan is to say things I never said before about these candidates. Which will be hard because there have been so many of these debates already.
Join me in efforts to be original!
20:16 – I’m watching the debate with Klara, and she’s a lot less repetitive than the candidates even though the range of sounds she can make is quite limited.
20:17 – if I were playing a game where I’d take a shot whenever Bernie gave a specific answer to a specific question I’d be as sober as I am already.
20:20 – the debate sounds like a soap opera: break up, break up, break up, put to bed, put to bed, break them up.
20:21 – if I were playing a game where I’d take a shot whenever Hillary gave a specific answer to the question about the transcripts, I’d still be very sober.
20:24 – Bernie looks a little frazzled. But why would anyone grill him on taxes so much? It’s obvious he’s very honest and doesn’t cheat on his taxes. Come on, move on already!
20:27 – fuck Verizon!
20:40 – Bernie wants to return to the 1950s and Hillary wants to return to the 1990s. Maybe by year 2050 we will accept that the twentieth century is over.
20:51 – we have minimum wage workers at my department: students who work at the lab. If the minimum wage went to $15, we’d have to fire most of them because the money is simply not there. Besides, the work is SO not worth $15 an hour. They furiously browse their Instagram and Snapchat while visitors to the lab pass their cards through the scanner. We do need somebody to make sure the cards are scanned but we don’t need it at such a cost.
20:59 – I like how Sanders speaks about climate change. He’s neither apocalyptic nor mumbly and says exactly what is needed. And what I’d say.
21:05 – hallelujah! Finally, somebody has mentioned that fracking has been crucial to keeping Russia in check. Yay!
21:09 – at this time, I was tempted to reiterate that the Pope is a dick but I won’t because I don’t want to be repetitive.
21:20 – good point on Bernie’s closeness to Trump on the issue of NATO.
21:25 – I love Hillary for finally bringing up Ukraine.
21:27 – Bernie is very good, very reasonable on Palestine. I like! That’s, once again, verbatim what I’d say on the subject. I’m pleasantly surprised for the third time in this debate.
