        I liked the taste of toothpaste and I liked brushing my teeth. Having an unclean mouth is gross, and I thought that even as a child.

        I am autistic, though, which means my experience might not be typical.

      My daughter’s high school held a mock election today. Trump won 52-48. She is in stunned disbelief like I remember being in 2016. :(

        we had those in school too. 1976-84, and they weren’t even close: carter. carter. mondale.

        I went to a rural highschool and in 2016 Shrek won our mock election. I don’t remember who got second or third though.

        How big is the highschool? I know my old one would be Republican as I was a paria for saying we shouldn’t ban burning the American flag in protest.

          About 650 students. The school covers a good range of rural- to mid-density areas, maybe a little heavier on the rural side.

            Ahh ok that makes sense, I had mix of rural and suburban with about 2500 students but we are also close to an air force base.

      Imo 2016 was the most important election, now we’re facing the consequences (of course 2024 could be the tipping point).
