@triketora ah the old switcheroo. We thought we were voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Waltz but it is in fact Billy and Jimmy Lee!

I guess they are going to elbow their way to the White House 🤣

@triketora lmao wait we dropped 22 years off our previous candidate and still have a nearly-60 year old, this is preposterous

Ah well an improvement is an improvement I guess

两条龙2024

(…it makes me happy that 条 is the measure word for dragons.)

@triketora I have a script, 'whatyear', that prints the type of animal for a given year using a scripting language I wrote:

#!/usr/bin/scrunner -sI:year,E:true,P:true
["猴 monkey", "雞 rooster", "狗 dog", "豬 pig", "鼠 rat", "牛 ox", "虎 tiger",
"兔 rabbit","龍 dragon", "蛇 snake", "馬 horse", "羊 goat" ][year %% 12]

The first line sets 'year' to the 1st command-line argument (an integer), 'E:true' forces an exit when done, 'P:true' means print the result, and '%%' is 'mod' in mathematics.

another fun fact @triketora Dragon babies from 2000 are the largest GenZ cohort and are why they've been breaking voting records since 2020.

unfortunately Democrats didn't have a strategy to GOTV for them in 2018 and that's why they lost the House. pandemic hit in 2020 and that radicalized them. not only were they the deciding factor in 2020 but Democrats didn't lose Congress completely thanks to them in 2022.

Dragon Babies for the MFW!!!!

(ps: am mother of one 😊)

@triketora

I would say "someone should photoshop this" but I'm not sure that ends well.
