I genuinely thought that Vance was the one booing firefighters based on my first impression of the title lol. That would have been especially delightful
It’s funny to me that the Trump ticket is pushing this they are for the everyman and against elites…they are the elites. You can’t get more elite than a billionaire and silicon valley VC guy.
Who among us hasn’t posted dolphin porn to twitter?
There are two Ivy League graduates among the four major candidates on presidential tickets. They are both in the Republican party, the same party that attacks colleges as being out of touch/too liberal and destructive.
They’re basically that Seymour Skinner meme. They go to college, don’t grow as people at all, then stand around like:
“Did I learn nothing from my time here? No, it’s the educated who are wrong”
I have a fair number of conservative relatives and it always brings me joy when I get to remind them that every single one of them lives in a blue dot city when they start going off about how terrible Democrats are at governance. How strange none of them want to live in Republican-dominated cities…
My conservative relatives are too busy “protecting” their kids from trans people in under 8 sports to stop and think about whether or not its right to slap their own kids for minor misbehaviour.
I love that the GOP has essentially been trying to destroy the Ivy League since the whole Israel thing got going, but so many of them are products of said Ivy League.
Meanwhile there is an actual everyman on the other side in Tim Walz.

This man walks in and everyone knows all the friction he has applied to god knows how many couches. He’s a fire hazard.
Yesterday, kudos to the captioner.
Thank you for this, it will make a fine addition to the “response to the groupchat yapper” folder.
He looks confused about what the sound was
Seriously it sounds like the rest of the applause was edited in.

I was saying “boo vans”.

“You childless losers probably spend all your time rescuing cats from trees!” Vance reportedly yelled as he ran off stage, mascara streaming down his face.
I was saying boo-urns
Why the fuck are you making a dead link?
It doesn’t show up as a link for me but I see how it might
It’s a link in Firefox.
I just boo him in general, but glad to see others doing it as well.
