Well, those 2 parties have had a stranglehold on our entire lawmaking infrastructure since anybody currently alive was born. They’ve had a loooooong time to implement election rules and campaign finance laws that only benefit themselves at the expense of those smaller parties.

N-O

Yes, push their poor people further into poverty and strengthen the conservative stranglehold on the state!

My understanding is that the US primaries are private affairs and the organisations can pick their candidates however they want. The democrats certainly did some unethical shit to snub Bernie in favor of Hillary, but I don’t know if Primary shenanigans can qualify as the crime of election fraud (unless some of the states protect their primary elections in the same way they do for real elections).

Is this a concern with electric vehicles? I haven’t heard of this being an epidemic that we even need to worry about.

Oh, nice. Yeah, I’m fine with my content being searchable on the great uneddit databases. That’s just the nature of the internet – anything you make public should be assumed to be forever public. It sounds like my deleted content won’t be making Spez advertising dollars when people search my old subreddit haunts, which was my goal in deleting my stuff in the first place.

Yeah, one one hand, I don’t get how this isn’t straight-up human trafficking. On the other hand, I have a feeling Chicago and New York and all those other places are helping these people in a much more compassionate manner than they would have been handled in Texas, so there’s at least that. I don’t know what a good answer is to the whole situation, but at the moment, asylum seekers are getting better help than if they were thrown in Texas border cages.

Yeah, I don’t see anything there about reddit undeleting their deleted posts/comments. Many of us burned our profiles to the ground when we left, but I hadn’t heard of them reverting our edits. I would expect that news to blow up as much as the last time Spez did something like that (may the gods erase his soul and the people forget his name).

Do you have evidence or just conspiracy theory gossip?

Israel is trading money for arms. We allow the president to authorize those sales. Ukraine is requesting that we give them shit. Financial appropriations require congress to approve. I don’t think it’s a matter of committing war crimes. If Ukraine wants to buy arms, I think Biden can bypass congress for those sales, too.

That’s also how small conservative towns and churches in Texas handle their homeless. They put them on busses and send them to the larger cities in Texas.

Do you deny that there has been a massive growth in the worldwide popularity of “avocado toast” in the past few decades?

Geothermal - 0.4%

Geothermal is not quite to the point where we can represent it with a whole number percentage value, but it’s getting there! If we’re going to include sub-1% generators, burning wood has geothermal beat out at 0.8%. Geothermal is cool, though!

Just wanted to let you know I’ve had these books on my “to-read” stack for a few years now, and your comment got me to start reading them yesterday. They’ve already got me hooked, so thanks for the nudge!

They don’t expire here, 3ither, but I found a 10-year-old gift card after a move and the company had switched to a new gift card system, so I had to spend an hour calling around to get my ancient gift card converted to modern store credit. It was not worth it for $20.

What religious groups are you experienced with that have a high enough occurrence of homosexual members that it completely negates growth by childbirth? Is this just a complete fantasy in your head? I’m not familiar with any groups where that would even remotely be a problem.

No, without air resistance , you don’t get that sound.

(Also, antipope is a subjective word, like heretic. From the perspective of various sects, the Pope Francis is the antipope.)

I thought the Church claimed an unbroken line of popes going back to the apostle Peter.

Wouldn’t any competitor only have a legitimate claim if they named their first pope during the brief downtime between popes? Otherwise they’re just another protestant sect.

Shit, it’d be good money for the US weapons suppliers to fund those cheap drones that generate multimillion dollar sales for them.
