It’s freeing for me in that, “No matter what, we’re at the guaranteed fuck stage. My brain is now freeing up the energy that goes to unproductive worry, and it can now be spared for productive minimization of damage”, which I thought was clear with me saying “Still gonna be for eco measures and such”
Huh. That’s oddly freeing
“Oh we’re all fucked guaranteed. The stress is gone”
I mean, still gonna be for eco measures and such, but it’s like a weight is off my shoulders in terms of worry
And they’ll use prison camps to fill labour voids, work people to death, and make even more restrictive laws to fill the shortages, continue until something gives and it collapses because they either can’t any more or the blue states start to riot in an attempt to break free of the US, either case resulting in GoP blaming “The enemy we are at war with” for the shortages and degrading conditions
My ADHD must be broken then. Or it’s the OCD and GAD talking
I prettt much have to rely on Fedia and some Torontonian friends to know how the public actually feels about Pierre
You have not experienced an echo chamber til you’ve lived in Alberta, cripes it often feels like Pierre has a 99.9% chance of winning if you listen to people here
I love the one comment on the article calling $82 normal
About $9 a kilo,$4 a pound, yes that’s about right. Lately chicken has been $11 a kilo.
Even if it does, the GoP are using tactics known as cheating, rigging, and intimidation. And if that doesn’t work, a coup
“Counter question: What stops a creep from doing that even if there was an anti trans law?”
That assumes they have any shame
Still kind of surprised there hasn’t been a poisoning attempt on him yet because of how much his ego thrives on being buttered up
Well, he is pretty old. Hammered in guilt and fervour for Israel due to being born during and growing up shortly after WWII?
Part of why I get pissed by people saying they aren’t voting/are voting third party this election. It NEEDS to be overwhelmingly Harris so the Supreme Court gets scared about giving it to the GoP. If Harris loses, there is no future election, and people who were all, “Harris is just as evil I’m not voting/voting 3rd party” will be among the people rounded up and thrown into concentration camps. Morals don’t matter shit when you get forced to work to death
It’s either make sure it’s overwhelming, or stop aiming to off Trump and instead take out the republicans on the SC - At least 4 of them. And I doubt the latter will happen, so it NEEDS to be an overwhelming Dem victory
Vance and the entire GoP losing all power is part of the Hitler% speedrun
God, if Trump somehow gets in, I hope he speedruns Hitler%. Gun in mouth, Fourth Reich collapses, first day
Oh boy, I can tell you’re not here for a good faith argument. Puberty blockers are explicitly TO delay puberty until they can be sure. Nothing wrong with them
“But why can they consent to-”
Nah ah, already stated the difference
I am looking to that. Been exposed to a LOT of second hand smoke growing up, and I have various medical problems that increase my risk for cancer, and also the wildfires I’ve had to work in…
People, smoking doesn’t just affect you, and also who the fuck leaves all the doors and windows in a house open during thick wildfire smoke and then demands the person having an anxiety attack to help with heavy lifting outside like come the fuck on
Hope this results in Firefox changing it to be opt in and not result in Firefox going the way of the dodo - We can’t have Chromium be the only option, and without somebody developing base Firefox, the forks are going to die off
Nah, fabric. And more grocery stores but smaller and locally owned so people don’t need to do a bunch of shopping at once. And proper pay and worker protections and price controls so people can afford to have time to shop
Yeah pretty much. Trump probably means it, but he’s like a toddler, he’ll get bored. Those amplifying his message or feeding him ideas are definitely trying to distract
