I won’t post political takes on here. Because why tf would you want political insight from an engineer in his 20s? I am 1000% equally as qualified to advise you politically as your accountant, your trash pickup crew, and the person that whips out in front of you and then drives 10mph under the speed limit. I mean that. There is absolutely zero reason you should be listening to any one person and letting them influence your political beliefs. And don’t even get me started on celebrities “using their platform.” If anything their opinion is actually less important than yours because they have nothing in common with 99% of us. Sorry to break it to you Ted Nugent and Chrissy Teigen. I would go as far as to advocate for a system where your social media gets scrubbed and if you are found to have reposted anything political from a celebrity then you actually forfeit your right to vote for the next two years.
Aside from that, there’s another reason I won’t post political takes on here. Because I don’t think it matters. Does the president affect your day to day life? I find it very hard to believe, but maybe you’ll tell me he does. Fine. My advice there would be first and foremost delete twitter. That’s where he does most of his damage. During these last few years I have come to realize the only thing dumber than Donald Trump on twitter is people who actually get angry over Donald Trump on twitter. There’s something comical about a millennial getting triggered by an 80 year old troll on social media. Feels like role reversal right?
Sorry losers and haters, but my I.Q. is one of the highest -and you all know it! Please don't feel so stupid or insecure,it's not your fault

And don’t get me wrong. I used to be one of the morons that thought it mattered. I’m just as guilty. Played right into the game. And then at some point I realized the following: There’s been two major political groups who are on complete opposite ends of every major political issue. They have been arguing for hundreds of years. As you grow up you are encouraged to subscribe to one of these groups and adopt not some, but all of their hot takes.
Could it be possible that they are both….wrong? What if it’s just like arguing over Michael Jordan and Lebron James. The argument exists because there is no correct answer, and thus it will never be solved. But it makes for a great distraction from all of the shit that we should actually be concerned about…
The people we have appointed to save us in the event of a pandemic seemingly have as much knowledge about how viruses work as the guy that just rung you up at Rite Aid (when you bought that face mask that you still don’t know if it’s necessary). Hillary Clinton deletes every email shes’s ever sent in her life and Dick Cheney made a gazillion dollars by orchestrating a jump over to the private sector. Yeah yeah I hear you, but lets save the REALLY hard hitters for the presidential debates. What do you think about this cake shop owner that wouldn’t put two guy figurines on a cake? Will you be kneeling for the national anthem from your living room on Sundays?
All that being said, I CAN NOT WAIT for November to roll around. I’ll be rooting for Joe Biden. Not because I think he’d make for a good president. Far from it. I feel bad for the guy. He is clearly showing signs of dementia and appears largely unsuited to be the leader of a little league baseball team, let alone a country. Which is fascinating to think about. We have a real-estate guy turned reality show star in there and most people want to UPGRADE to a guy that starts a sentence in Montana and ends it Kazakhstan. This is the guy that is favored to win! And like I said, I want him to win. I want him to win with the hope that everyone will stop being so mad at each other. Please for the love of god can we all agree to shut up and worry about things within your control? You’re not going to change each other’s minds on global climate change, I promise you. Just sit back and enjoy the fact that we might get to listen to speeches like this for the next four years.

PS – you want a bomb to drop at the Thanksgiving table this year? My buddy told me something about Joe Biden’s son dating his dead brothers widow. Naturally, I had to fact check him on that. There’s no way you can be the vice presidents kid and pull off some crazy shit like that. As it turns out, not only is it true, but there is a little extra juice. Hunter Biden began dating his late brother’s widow shortly after his death and it went on for a couple years. Things may have worked out had he not cheated on her and fathered a child with another woman during the relationship. He later righted the ship and the 50 year-old just recently had a child with his new wife, a 32 year-old woman whom he met 6 days before they tied the knot.
