unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Also potentially people blaming him partly for the failed reconstruction (Even though he got assassinated...) 110
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026For sure. Trans rights is something where people just do not care one way or another (Which is bad in its own way but still) Immigration I am angry about...though sadly it really does seem there was a backlash towards it. Maybe it could of been fought and they should of tried atleast though 020
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026While this is off topic, part of the idea of things can get better is with the dems! While yes there are still some bad dems and on a whole they are no where near perfect, they overall are far more on the left then they use to be a decade ago 120
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I think overall it looks good but I tend to focus on the near future, and worrying about 2030 is completely wild as alot could of changed by then 120
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026The Senate probably has staying power. In terms of longevity, that depends ALOT on 2028 and who is the president, as they do need energy and motivation to start fixing alot of shit up and be seen doing it 020
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Wonderful, wider adoption will probably come soon enough! Honestly the biggest thing that needs fixing that I am worried about is our food system as a whole, that's a complicated mess of a thing 010
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I am less sure on that particularly however it is hard to say for certain. Either way, we are in agreement that the ICE raids would probably still result in dem gains this midterms, just not the total blue wave we are seeing 220
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Indeed! Solar is looking really strong, batteries in particularly are getting way more impressive! Which helps with alot of things, and with the way oil prices are, I imagine that roof panels suddenly look like a really good investment, and maybe even some farmers might be tempted by field panels 110
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I also will argue that while of course the oil crisis and Tariffs are hurting Trump ALOT I think some are underestimating how much the ICE raids had a influence on things (Particularly with the hispanic population) 120
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026The Trump effect is real annoyingly, though we have yet to see anyone able to claim that role thankfully though 230
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026With that in mind, the work required for this transition is within reach, and like with plumbing, once it gets started, it naturally speeds up 110
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Indeed It is a weird thing to take inspiration from, but look up the history of plumbing and sewers if you want to feel inspiration at what is possible in a short period of time. Within half a century so much changed at huge costs, including freaking lifting up a whole city! 110
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Solar is very good news, and I do take heart in the occassional news I hear that it seems like nature recovers faster then we expect so maybe if we do stop, things can heal 110
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I hope so, and it happens fast enough for the climate crisis that is happening. 110
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I hope you are right, and for reference, I think you are, the answer is just complicated about how to answer it alongside how time alters it 120
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I think alot of people are dooming about the future currently because of Brazil's election with the fascists regaining power looking likely there however there are some key differences, particularly as this election is more similar to Biden losing in 2024 then it is to future elections in my opinion 130
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Is he said this about depression I would be a bit more critical...but despair? Yeah no that's a luxury feeling that you need to fight and if you can't you actually have depression and need help 0190
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026If is the big thing then, can social media be saved from what it currently is doing? I don't know but I think so. 000
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Oh no, just liked they control the media before in tv and so on? That's nothing new, and yes it is more powerful, but looking at it as just a tool of the Ogliarchy is wrong in my opinion 270
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026That is being done is more then the benefit is overly confident on the exact benefits and cost. AOC probably would not have happened without social media for example. There are so many things involved in this that I find the idea of turning back the clock to reset it and that will fix everything 100
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Would that have happened regardless? And in response how many protests and queer rights have been helped by social media? How many more people aware and seeing queerness? I do not know the cost/benefit ratio here. I think my main argument is I think being confident that the cost and harm 230
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I disagree. Yes it has had many negatives...but without it I just would not be the queer person I am. So many queer people found their home online, so much work is done there. It is such a big technology that I genuinely do not know if it is more good or bad. But I think people overlook the good 180
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Well, the same was true for Biden and we saw what happened... God I don't know what to actually make with all of this. I have to believe that good things can happen but it is just getting hard 1120
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026It is depressing man. I don't know what the end of this looks like. I have to believe there is a end as otherwise what's the point but it is really hard to imagine actually getting there 060
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 05/10/2026That and people who didn't vote in the first round now vote in the second 1340
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Them replacing search functions is just so incredibly dumb. Search was good! Really good in fact! Why did you have to ruin it! 050
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I think you could argue there are some differences between sport simulations and the like vs 'AI' however I do think it does illuminate a good point 110
Reposted by @unorlis.bsky.sociallou-ellen 🎃 @louceph.com · 30/09/2026i have just over a week to make $1100 im so tired i just need to sleep 21911
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 29/09/2026At this point I think it is very much wait and see with the results, it seems like it will be between D+12 to D+18 1120
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 28/09/2026I am very much looking forward to No Kings because to me that will be the start of the real grind, just seeing how many people are excited to get them out 090
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I think Shakespeare is one of those writers where you can absolutely fit fuck into the plays without it hurting much, depending on the exact location. 140
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 26/09/2026I will admit, and this is one of those times where I don't know poll numbers too well, but only 22% feels low to me? But I don't know this sort of thing 530
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Genuinely curious why Beto's popularity dropped, was it the shift from registered to likely voters? 150
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Yeah, I genuinely think people who are arguing for or against various people for president are just getting way too ahead of themselves 1140
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 26/09/2026And again, the Trump effect is real! When he is on the ballot, he gets people out, when he isn't that just doesn't carry the same 020
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 24/09/2026And if a court rules against you...your whole channel and the whole gaming youtuber/steam industry crumbles 010
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 24/09/2026It should also be noted that youtube videos as a whole are fairly untested when it comes to free use claims, particularly for things like video games (Which is outside of your wheelhouse admitedly) and because of that, even if a youtuber had money, it isn't enough to fight a corporation 120
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 24/09/2026Considering all the other polls this just feels innately wrong. It feels like something has gone wrong with the polling here 110
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Establishment dems are losing seats and the hold is not as strong as it use to be. Honestly who the next leader is is hard to predict 000
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Yeah, I have no clue what it is going to take to actually end the war, it is not going to be pretty 130
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 22/09/2026I genuinely don't know what they can do at this point The best thing I can think of is a actual end to the Iran war and news of oil coming back. Will it lower the prices right away? No, however if it seems like it is happening there might be a window where how bad the retreat is has not hit yet 130
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 22/09/2026It seems like things can only get worse for the GOP from here. Yes they have money that they can blitz...but there is only so much that can do against the material conditions 140
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 22/09/2026I believe in Florida was less then Texas, but still am very happy to hear, it seems very likely we are getting into the territory of extremely strange flips. 130
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 22/09/2026...Okay genuine question, what's the range to start turning gerrymanders into dummymanders? 150
unorlis.bsky.social @unorlis.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Interesting, the fact it is already high is really nice. And yeah, I am really interested to see because No Kings at this point has got good organisational skills that will help alot of first time voters, which to me is something polls might miss 010
