The US Election 2016, Part VIII
In a normal election, both Trump and Clinton would have been dead in the water long ago. This is a weird one. Also enjoying WoD trying to channel McCarthy.

Throwing the SJW label at Ginsberg is ridiculous. The woman was born in 1933, she has overcome a tremendous amount of adversity to get where she is today.

Star Trek definitely seems like the better place to live as your average citizens. People keep blowing up planets in Star Wars.

GD has criticized the Libertarian party for not being better at the local level quite a few times. I believe he hopes that Johnson exposure (that felt dirty) will help lead to more success at the state level.

It loses it's appeal after driving through it for a few hours.

I'm not sure if that has much to do with youth. In my 20's I could handle all sorts of crazy roller coasters and had some pretty turbulent flights. Now, close to my 40's, I am close to retching if I turn around too quickly.

Trump may be ruthless when he thinks it's necessary, but I don't think he's a nasty guy. Then you are totally blinded by your loyalty.

It would not be surprising if he did. They are both terrible, yay.

What's on the idiot box?
Watched the first episode of Luke Cage. It has a tremendous amount of style. I like him a lot better than Daredevil, although I'm not sold on the villains yet. So far Jessica Jones is still my favorite, but this one seems more fun than both DD and JJ.

My commute on Friday has all the characteristics of a great American novel. It begins with a sense of anticipation and excitement, followed by tragedy and loss, acceptance and reflective thought, a sudden twist or two, then a rising story arc before the exhaustive conclusion.

I see myself giving Sunless Sea another shot someday. I think I need to be in a certain headspace, or at least be prepared to do a good amount of reading. But many games are like that, I often put them down and come back under better circumstances.

Nope. It's a shame, really. Trump has been consistent in saying terrible things about people, but Clinton seems to be playing it safe.

My wife and I get to pour wine for a local winery this weekend, so that should be fun.

Still plugging away at WoW, I have my Death Knight up to level 81 and am looking to start the cataclysm content.

Geez, why can't she talk like that in the debates? I mean, there were a few moments when she went off the rails talking about faith and her daily spirit guide, but she handled the talk about self consciousness and the struggle with ego with incredible grace. Great question and great response.

I never got into Sunless Sea. I'm not sure why it didn't hook me. I'm not a big Lovecraft guy either though.

The US Election 2016, Part VII
Didn't Trudeau save someone's life recently? I thought about him, but I can't say I have much to go on other than him seeming charismatic. But really, it's difficult to look at current leaders and say they are great. Usually it takes a decade or so to reflect on what they really accomplished, unless they've been in an extraordinary situation. Fox, for example, was. It was pretty much a miracle that he ended up in office.

I read a great book about Vincent Fox when I was in college. I'd agree with Johnson's choice. Can't say there are any current world leaders I'd be comfortable backing.
