  • I can answer the question for you now. Apple doesn’t have the ability to change your password, update your 2FA phone number, or in your case because the account must have been created 10+ years ago and never updated to 2 factor which I believe is required on near every Apple device, they cant change your security questions eirher. The account is likely lost for good if you can’t go to iforgot.apple.com and get the reset information correct/kick off an account recovery. If you have an apple device the easiest/quickest solution is going to the Apple support app, clicking reset password, choose help someone else as you are likely signed in with another account, and enter your info there. If 2 factor is on, it should ask to confirm the phone number on the account, send you a code, if you get that right it may ask for your passcode you used on an Apple device previously (like 4 or 6 digit pin). If you get that right… you can change the password then and there, if you don’t have the phone number… The account recovery option it presents is your only option.


  • I hadn’t seen him outside of like a photo after his “re-appearence” or whatever. My spouse showed me a video short of him yesterday with a journalist asking him what his thoughts are about the Republicans losing so many seats and how it will effect Trumps actions in the upcoming years. Mitch couldn’t nod, shake his head, or open his mouth. I don’t think he could even comprehend someone was asking him a question or where he was.

    People are essentially pushing around a meat sack to subvert the Republic all the while abusing the hell out of this elderly person.

    I would think his constituents would be demanding to know who is acting as their rep, because it isn’t Mitch, and they weren’t elected.



  • Yeah culturally we would need people to accept the answer in the post, but in practice you quickly see someone pivot to then explaining why their opinion is what you should hold because the following bias information they use.

    That will happen by those who are greedy, but also those who want to help people.

    When someone honestly believes that switching to EVs would have somehow caused chaos, then telling someone not to buy an EV wasn’t necessarily them trying to hurt things, they believe they are doing the right thing.


  • I mean the Musk part of it is just weird. He owns an EV company, spends his money to hurt EV sales, supports Texas being anti EVs, but wants to move all his businesses there. Like the whole EV cab business only works if the people are willing to get in the cabs. And he’s trying to convince people on the right to hate them, and the left to hate him…

    So he has to be losing half the market intentionally it seems.


  • Yeah I think impeachment gets dicey around what could qualify or not. Their actions don’t actually have to be criminal. What falls under harmful to the public trust becomes more of an opinion than a set rule. Like, does taking money for your campaigns from donors tied to supportimg our country starting wars across an ocean with people that in no way benefits the public? Someone could probably make that argument, that saying we should continue sending missiles to a country that has been continuously proven to use them to kill children/innocents/and needed infrastructure for humanity to survive… I would say is harmful to the public trust… But I’m sure others wouldn’t.




  • Yeah if you look at 2000 in particular Bush “won” by .01%.

    If you are familiar with that election that is when Al Gore won the popular vote in the U.S., a recall was called in Florida twice and conspiracies surround how Bush’s own brother was the Governir of Florida.

    Basically first count said Bush won by 1784 votes ~.009%. That triggered and automatic recount by the machines. Which came back saying he actually only won by 327 votes, meaning the room for error was wider than the election. His brother helped stall a manual recount, they sent it to the Supreme Court and the U.S. supreme court decided it didn’t matter because hand counting them would take time and awarded all 25 elector votes to Bush, making him President of an election he had not one neither the population, nor possibly the electors… But we’ll never know.


  • Florida has gone to the right in the last 10 years but before that they always swung back and forth.

    Like if you look at who Florida voted for, it was pretty much who won president except the Trump 2020 election.

  • I think the real answer is that anyone who cares about the climate already isn’t voting for Republicans. That vote is already secured, so why waste resources saying something that may just piss people off by not calling for extreme enough changes or whatever else. 0% of the people who voted for Trump in 2024 give a fuck about the environment. Those are the people they are trying to convince to not vote for a Republican again, even if it’s just to get them to not vote because they sow doubt about how he’s starting wars/raising costs and whatever else they think Republicans would care about.
