I don’t get this democracy is on ballot in ’24. Heck yeah. Its on ballot every election from now on, not just ’24. Given the normal 8 year cyclical nature of US presidency in recent decades its pretty much guaranteed that if Biden wins ’24, we will have a republican president in ’28. If ’24 is all about ensuring Trump can’t win, well someone worse than him will surely be nominated in ’28 and win. To really *save* democracy, democrats need to win ’24, ’28, ’32 at a minimum along with at least one of the houses constantly. I don’t see that happening sadly. I guess we can take it one election at a time….

If you had told me at the beginning of the World Cup South Africa would be the team to watch out for I would have been like uh what? They still play cricket? They are frigging dominating the World Cup along with India. I would be so thrilled if South Africa or New Zealand wins the World Cup this time.
I think I can get behind *so elegant so beautiful just looking like a wow* bandwagon.
This is truly [scary](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/kasrajh_adobephotoshop-generativefill-adobefirefly-activity-7122793907209314304-hNzC?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop). On one hand I am like wow so cool, I might not even need to carry my camera/phone anywhere at all if I can just generate this on the fly, and on the other hand where does reality end and new one begins? We are in for an interesting time where we have no idea what we are seeing is real anymore or not.
Looking at pictures my brother is sending me feels like his community in Bangalore is celebrating Halloween way more bigger and grand than our community here. Frankly I often feel like Halloween is sorta dying out here in the burbs but trust India to take something from somewhere else and make it their own (I love it btw!).
At this point I am rooting for Afghanistan to be in the semis. What an exemplary show of cricket by them, and who would’ve thought they along with Netherlands would be the teams to watch for! Afghanistan in particular has been such a revelation. Big IPL contracts incoming guaranteed for their players next year.
The early voting turnout in Virginia is lower than 2022 and almost 1/3rd lower than 2021. This is boding really bad for Democrats, but I guess Northern Virginia can’t be bothered to vote next Tuesday coz it will be colder than normal and how can young people handle that? Youngkin has gone on air and said if GOP wins next week, abortion ban is next. I just hope democrats show up.
England really wants to go home quickly don’t they? Cant believe they won the WC 4 years ago only to crash out like this. And wow bowling performance by India. I really hope they have not already peaked!
Sorry, but Israel is a terrorist state. Let’s just get comfortable calling them so. Just like we know that Taliban, the government of Afghanistan do not represent the regular people, so is Israel. This is a government this is fully emboldened by the west to do whatever they please at this point and we are all contributing to enabling a terrorist state.
We’ve been watching modern family with the kid since a few days and I sincerely forgot how good this series was in its earlier seasons.
