    I’m going to not be the cynic and I’ll assume that they will move the date 4 days later for the DNC, like the 7 days they did for the RNC in 2020 with Trump. I hope our political system rewards my faith.

      It won’t.

      Even if they do, some other bullshit will be afoot.

          Is there any other alabama?

          If there is… it must suck getting confused for 'Bama all the time.

              apparently there’s an Alabama, Romania; Alabama Ghana; and an Alabama Hill, Queensland, Australia.

              now I’m curious what those places are like.

                Google maps sent me to a park, for Alabama in Romania. It’s effectively a city park, but in a village. Feels like the kind of thing that gets built for fraud purposes. A couple sports (football, basketball, whatever) would’ve served the village kids much better than park benches.

                  I dunno. I just looked at it on street view… it seems a decent playground at least.

                  It’s empty, so, maybe you’re right, but its not straight up awful like some of the places I’ve seen.

                    When I was a kid at least, the kind of play you do in a park, we’d do in the yard. Playing tag, playing with toys, swings, etc. Maybe that’s not the case anymore, and maybe the kids are using it. I would’ve preferred a football field back then, because the school had its gates locked over the weekend.

            ‘The Florida Panhandle’ is a common nickname for ‘Lower Alabama’ so I can understand why it might be forgotten as another Alabama…

      Hope in one hand, and shit in the other.
