Banana For Scale

Dogs will do just about anything their owners ask of them.

"Here! Let's go do a thing!"
"Oh, boy! Let's go! I can hardly wait!"
"Here! Eat this food I was about to throw away."
"Yeah! You bet! Oh, boy! Oh, boy! Nom-nom-nom."
"Here! Go kill that guy!"
"You bet! Here I go! Grrr!"

Cats are different.

"Here! Let's go do a thing."
"Why?"
"Here! Eat this food I was about to throw away."
"You're kidding, right?"
"Here! Go kill that guy?"
"What's in it for me?"

I prefer an animal, and an electorate, that asks questions, not obeys mindlessly. Else you end up doing things like, oh, I dunno, waiting for dead people to spring back to life and announce that Donald Trump is president.

Far be it from me to cast suspicion on election results, but...

Virginia Gubernatorial results:

2017: 2.6 million votes total.
D: 1.4 million R: 1.17 million

2021: 3.2 million votes total.
D: 1.5 million R: 1.66 million

Where did the 500,000 Republican votes come from? And, whaddaya know, just enough to beat the Democrat.

This stinks.

For the record: Population of Virginia
2017: 8.46 million
2021: 8.62 million

160,000 more citizens in four years but 500,000 more Republican voters. Yeah, that makes sense.
