Fuck anyone who ever said this past election was the lesser of two evils. No, you troglodytic shit stain. And fuck the excusers who still justify their vote for Stein or their vote for Trump or their non-vote in protest. When the nukes fly, ask yourself how true it was this past election was between the lesser of two evils. Then go fuck yourself in the final seconds you have on this planet.

that is before it goes to the kiln obviously this shrinks the wood
the rough wood is then run though a planer which is a upsized version of the one in your shop
at least that is the way it was done at the the Molpus Lumber Co. about 40 years ago

Flying Squirrel
(3,041 posts)It definitely doesn't come from pumpkins like the ones we carve. It comes from the Dickinson variety of squash specifically developed for pie by Libby's. The FDA allows it to be labeled "pumpkin" even though it's closer to a squash.

(841 posts)I thought they were just venting but would vote for Clinton when push came to shove. But I still see them constantly talking down the Democrats online to the point where I sometimes have a hard time distinguishing them from Republicans. It is fine to criticize the Democrats for making mistakes or for not doing enough on this or that issue, but these people seem to have some kind of irrational vendetta against anyone who does not meet their ideological purity test. Some even called Bernie Sanders a sellout for campaigning with Clinton during the general election.
The Steinbots actually think they are some kind of Silent Majority and everyone else is just brainwashed. They are not much different from the right-wing cranks who watch Alex Jones.

DownriverDem
(7,014 posts)We were all warned. Young folks have the most to lose rights wise and militarily wise. If trump starts a war guess who will be needed to fight it? Then consider how the Supreme Court is now firmly RW for decades. Remember that with every decision that makes you angry. We have a two party system, no matter how folks want to spin it. The Dems are a 100% better than the repubs of today. Our focus is to beat the crap out of the repubs. I will never understand why left leaners who voted 3rd party didn't get the message. They must be way too politically naïve. They will see day by day what their foolish vote did to our country.
alarimer
(17,146 posts)Almost as many as all the other candidates got combined. Something like 45% of eligible voters DID NOT vote. We should focus on what we can do to get out the vote; how do Democrats reach those non-voters? How do we make it easier to vote in the first place? Anger and blame at this point is useless. Maybe it feels good to hate everyone who isn't you and to feel self-righteous in your correctness, but it won't actually solve anything.

LiberalLovinLug
(14,689 posts)A party who gets 1% of the vote. A party that is probably in line with 90% of the Democratic party platform. This paranoid obsession is disturbing on here. There is a better way to make the Green party irrelevant, and that is to usurp much of their platform, make it be clearly understood that Democrats are not bought and sold to the corporacracy. The rightward shift that the Democratic party did in the last 30 years opened up room for a more left party to wedge itself in. What did they think would happen when they decided to move right to fill in the gap where the Republicans shifted extreme tea bagger right?
Just get back to your core principles Democrats, and the Green party will become even more irrelevant. Jill Stein, and Ralph Nader are not bad people. What in the Green party platform do you object to? They just saw a gap, and need for one sector of people that were not being represented, and jumped in. They have every right to in an open democracy. This whole school yard taunting and teasing is embarrassing.

(14,689 posts)At least you used the proper term. She is our adversary. I think Americans are so used to the two party system that they cannot even fathom the idea of multiple parties like almost every other nation has. Its like they do not have a right to exist. It sure is noted on election years when Democrats and Republicans collude in keeping other parties out of the debates. That only narrows the topics, and narrows the ideas brought forth to the American public.
I can understand why she and the Greens are regarded as competition. That is understandable. What I don't understand is the palpaple hatred towards her. If you listed all the things she would want for America, the Green platform, and then listed everything Trump and the GOP would want for America, it would be night and day. One party would clearly be ethically, morally, very close to Democratic party ideals, while the other is a corrupt cesspool. Why is Jill hated even more than the GOP? If you don't like her taking away votes from Democrats, then address the issues she is addressing! Not rocket science.
hrmjustin
(71,265 posts)She said Republicans and Democrats are the same and that is a lie. She said Hillary and orange man were one in the same. She portrayed Hillary as a war monger which we all know is not true.
She is entitled to say these things and people can vote how they like but on this board she is regarded as the enemy because she is.
And if you think we hate her more than the GOP then you are not paying attention.

(1,428 posts)It's not the job of the Republicans and Green Party members to win elections for Democrats. That's our job. We have to field candidates that can win. Putting up sub-par candidates then yelling "fuck you" over and over might make you feel good but it doesn't win elections. Votes are earned. Not owed. No amount of vote shaming is going to change that. "Fuck you" is not a winning campaign slogan.
