my first voter interaction today was great. The guy started laughing during my schpiel and I got nervous but then he goes, "of COURSE I'm going to vote for Joe Biden!" LOL He about made my stomach leap How did the rest of the shift go? Hello new friend. What brings you out of lurking?

How did the rest of the shift go? Hello new friend. What brings you out of lurking? This election. Its making me super nervous. Very appreciative of people like you who are volunteering and making calls. I've been donating but am not sure I'd be great at phonebanking.

Hello new friend. What brings you out of lurking? This election. Its making me super nervous. Very appreciative of people like you who are volunteering and making calls. I've been donating but am not sure I'd be great at phonebanking. Just give it a try! I basically hyperventilate if I have to call on the phone to order a pizza. I do NOT enjoy calling strangers. But I always feel good about it afterward. If you have any questions just ask! ETA also, welcome!

I want to do this but watching Black Panther in front of a 3.5 year old and a 9 month old is probably unwise.

Trump is going to Kenosha. www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-53962653I'm so uneasy about this. "The president will meet with local police and "survey damage from recent riots" He is not a leader. This is not to protect Americans. I'm scared of what his presence will encourage.

My almost 4yo has seen like all the MCU movies 🤷🏻♀️ I was uneasy with DS2 seeing them when he was only 5 but they bring him SO much joy. Also I like that superheroes like Batman and Black Panther rely on ingenuity and science vs brute force violence or superpowers. I also love that in BP the people who resort to using semiautomatic rifles are the "primitive" dummies 😹 Anyway, MCU can be intense and I don't like movies with gunfire generally but once I actually watched them WITH H and DS I felt a lot better about him watching them. Also Endgame was quality programming, NGL.

That’s why he has to lose them in order to do the ritual combat, DC! I also have major problems with End Game and the teehee isn’t it funny that Thor is fat storyline. But this isn’t the Geek Board so 🙃 Anywayyyy..... Also. All of my kids 2-8 have seen all of MCU 🤷♀️ Ant Man is their favorite though.

I watch it every time its on tv or even mildly suggested in my world. Will probably watch it tonight because of this.

It's supposed to show that he's struggling with his mental health after infinity war. He's seriously depressed and not dealing with it. Though I agree they should have dealt with it differently. But come complain on the Geek board. We have a thread for hating on Marvel characters

It IS depressing, and I think the author is right. But some insight about what we should be doing would have been helpful. The author says Americans don't have any experience fighting authoritarianism. Correct. But the only suggestion appears to be pouring into the streets. Great. And then... ?
