Uhhh it's a bit uncalled for to say that Mrs. Clay attempted to solicit a male prostitute IMO.

It's an unfounded piece of gossip used to attract Linda, who just said she was a democrat. Also, he isn't an escort, he's simply a male stripper who may or may not have been asked to become a gigolo. It's all alleged.

Long vs Dunbar would be weird because they have the exact same voter base but Long also attracts black voters.

Okay. Just seems oddly specific.

Then again, I don't frequently patronize gigolos, maybe they're really into senate races.

I'll ask my ex-boyfriend and find out (does it count as a gigolo if you don't get paid and you're in a relationship?)

A gigolo is a young man paid or financially supported by an older woman to be her escort or lover.

I remember back in elementary school, a girl and I would ride the bus home together, I really liked her, she liked me at that point, she always said she never wanted to make anything official until high school, it would mean more that way, we promised eachother to wait until then. I waited and waited, in middle school, she began to date other people and I was blindsided and she acted like she never liked me in the first place. I don't really want to talk about what happened in High School, too sad for me. Long story short, I put her in my 'will', she gave me a promise ring, and I gave her a necklace, she threw away the necklace and I pawned the promise ring.

Edit: The reason i had a will in the first place was because I had fallen into the intracoastal canal and basically drowned, had I gotten to the hospital any later than I did, I could have died.

Levi, That watch checking ended Dayton in my opinion.

Plus, her pandering was about as obvious as Hillary Clinton trying to say she carries hot sauce in her purse.

I recently redid a political compass test and remarkably my political views barely changed simce 4 years ago.

I think I moved a single unit left economcally and that is it

"The worst form of inequality is to make unequal things equal."
-Aristotle
"Even the striving for equality by means of a directed economy can result only in an officially enforced inequality - an authoritarian determination of the status of each individual in the new hierarchical order. "-Friedrich August von Hayek
Political Compass
Economic:3.88
Social:1.40

Literally none of this is justified IC, in some cases it's contradictory to many characters' beliefs and philosophies.

Porter is basically a political hypochrondiac, and I think I stated before in the meeting with Prendy that he wanted to shut down foreign travel into America as much as possible with any excuse he can for national security reasons.

Also tbf for all we know this could be something really minor and the real crisis is about how everyone panicked too much about the cold-like virus causing an economic crash.

And also also MERS - the strain of coronavirus between SARS 1 and SARS 2 - killed half of its victims. That is definitely cause for panic.

Fatality rate was around 35% and even then, less than a thousand people died because of it. Not sure how that would greatly alarm people, especially when we know that it didn't.
