Oh wow, deep cut! I had that buried somewhere in the back of my brain.

Do not pay a lot of attention to single polls. Poll aggregators (even with flaws like RealClearPolitics) are so much better, and a predictive model (Nate Silver or the new 538) is even better. Great pollsters don't herd and are not afraid of publishing outliers.

If we see the overall aggregate start to tend more toward Harris, that's significant and this poll was an early sign. If it doesn't, then this poll was just an outlier.

And he (Admiral Motti) got the first name of Conan by George Lucas while on the Conan O'Brien show!

Outrageous! It's terrible what people can force devs to do. I would like to apologize for my fellow human's behavior personally; can you give me the name of the game and/or a download link? Or at least some screenshots, so I can, uh, be further outraged.

I got one of those powerful rare earth magnets, so my lost screw percentage is way down, from 99% lost to only about 95% lost now!

To be fair, they're not always spoilers. Sometimes they're irrelevant! Probably spoilers this time, though.

Just updated this morning, shit. Working okay so far, though.

"Stop laughing," the department chief said in an interview with WLMY. "This is a wheel problem for us."

It's a bit different from his typical "hit people who bug him" style, but I enjoyed this arc. Thanks!

Yeah, swing states are where it's at. From Nate Silver's forecast, the states most likely to tip the election (as of today, Oct 9).
