    And Kamala appeals to all the dudes who had shitty weirdo mothers.

      Yeah so, I did not expect to have this reaction to a powerful woman running, and I certainly didn’t experience anything like it with Hillary, and honestly it is probably toxic at base, but, uh…

      Ka-mommy.

      It’s not that. I have good parents. For me it’s the humanity on display. We’re so used to these stoic leaders putting out a highly polished inhuman image and Kamala and her husband are out here making faces at each other on the campaign trail. Doug actively tries to crack her up when they’re in front of the cameras but not doing speeches or something.

        And Donold is so mentally broken that he is unable to genuinely belly laugh at anything. That’s really creepy once you notice it.

        Yeah, it’s refreshing to go back to the tried-and-true boomers after the brief experiment with a silent generation president.

          My mom was amazing and died when I was 19, but thank you for your comment.

          *Now if you’re referring to CHUDS I actually am an expert…

            I am sorry for your loss. I was referring to chuds.

            Now I’m still talking about chuds but curious why they are now CHUDS, is that significant? I am not steeped in chud (or CHUDS) culture and appreciate the insight.

                Well, I personally don’t see the appeal, but as long as you aren’t hurting anyone, I wish you the best of luck.

                I will say, though, just as an aside, that it’s odd to me to say “cannibalistic humanoid”, because cannibalism can only be committed against the same species, but the term humanoid seems to describe something up to a range of species.

                So it’s as if we are saying, I don’t know what species a CHUDS is, but whatever it is, it is humanoid and that’s also the species it preys on.

                But surely we must determine the species of both the predator and the prey to determine that they are both the same species, in which case why the generalized term?

                It is quite a vexing problem. This is great weed.
