By supporting and running candidates who aren't milquetoast poll-readers with passable oratory skills. A decade+ of this shit has finely tuned many folks' bullshit meters and they are very much done with the status quo, or whatever's left of it.

As an example, my US rep sent out a blast email a month or two ago with a one-line Yes/No poll question: "should I support the presidents request for an additional $88B for the Iran War?" Bitch, 1) it's not a "War" as you didn't sign off on it 2) he and his lackeys do not give a single fuck what you do or don't support, they've proven time and again that they're just going to do shit whether or not you as a US rep approve, and 3) why the fuck are you asking me? Your entire job is to know more about this shit than me and make Informed Decisions that reflect the best interests of your constituents; me. In fact, i should be asking you that question then holding you accountable when I disagree. That's how this democracy thing is supposed to work, dickbag.

This is the temple and roughly the angle of the shot:

And if you dig hard enough you'll see I'm an app architect closing in on 20 years in the industry.

Dude looks like he's wearing Gary Busey's face as a mask.

We had one particular drinking fountain in our fraternity back in the day that, after a hard night, could single-handedly pull you back from the brink of disaster in the morning.

The water throughput, temperature, and taste were always just right, regardless of the time of year.

Without fail; suck down some water for 60 or so seconds, take a long shit and get back at it.

Man it's been 20 years, the building is long-gone but I still think about that water fountain and it's perfect water.

Belcher-ass transportation mode.
