Yeah that phenomenon is odd. She’s married with a kid now, maybe just 2 years later. Glad it’s not me pretty much daily we had a dog together and I was skeptical lol

I want to find a new home instance, just randomly picked this one when I signed up moving from reddit.

Anybody got any suggestions or one’s to avoid?

Got mine in June.

Was pretty scared going in but now I’m glad I did it. 0 kids, haven’t ever wanted them. Lost a ltr because the woman I was seeing decided she did want kids after 5 years together (where we previously agreed we both did not want them).

After we split I got a little foot loose with dating and realized I should just make my decision to be childless my own and permanent, why risk it for myself or others.

Class struggles are something we can all get behind

Do you have an attic where the kitchen light box is accessible?

Bay area, and same. I miss four seasons (Virginia is closest I’ve been so mild winters). The housing market, politics, and long term climate prospects of the northeast make it pretty damn appealing.

Toothless watchdogs is more like it

I have a beater 97 Corolla. Don’t care about stuff hitting it one bit. I wanna get some kind of funny sticker that’s like “at least it’s not a Tesla” or something like that

I’ve done it 7 or 8 times, I just ask if it’s possible to opt out. Never had an issue.

That sucks. I’ve never had an issue opting out after finding out it’s possible, maybe done it 7 or 8 times. I smile and ask “is it possible to opt out of that?”

I’m curious if something would happen if they told you no, when you do in fact have that right. I’m so anxious when I’m there (about nothing, just an anxious guy) that if they told me I couldn’t opt out I’d just fall in and let the thing scan me.

Came here looking for this

Probably because everyday it’s some brand new outrage or the second end-of-democracy event this week or yet another toothless attempt to impose consequences that will go nowhere.

It gets clicks and it’s obviously a cycle that will go on for 4 years and it’s exhausting.

Nobody wants to watch that shit, wake us up when somebody does something about it. It’s obvious to me that Teflon don has zero consequences for his actions, so why hear about them and ruin my day?

Lol, that would require them to do something.

Off topic, but how do you like graphene? I am thinking of making the switch on a pixel 7a, but I have a fear it’ll be like having Linux on my phone where things randomly don’t work and then I have the hobby where I make it work

The Charleston song kinda slaps too

Wish he’d fight young competitive boxers now. It’s wild how much time catches up to a human.

I really wish they would put out a survey for voters. Some way to collect data about what people actually want. Like a huge survey, let every registered dem fill it out.

If they’re talking about running some bland business-as-usual candidate then that’ll lose. People want change.

Based on their track record I have no faith in progress.

Can’t find a way to contact CA guy, only a way to give him $

I live in a really liberal state. So my vote doesn’t actually matter.

I’ll consider it, and I appreciate the kind response, but to be honest I think if people keep placating them with “lesser of two evils votes” nothing will change.

Hopefully the party can draw conclusions about the 10m people who sat this one out vs 2020, and figure out why.

Edit: do you have an article or transcript for the link? I’m not a video person I prefer to read

They have 4 years to tighten up. I’m not optimistic. The only victory they have had since Obama was a fear victory… nobody wanted Biden they were scared of trump. That is played out.

The right did a good job of parading him around as an anti-establishment, for the common people candidate. I don’t think that’s true, but a lot of people do.

I hope the D party reorganizes as a populist anti-establishment party and holds a ranked choice primary with some young actually left leaning candidates who can’t be bought.

To be honest, if the D party don’t reform and earn my vote, I’m not giving it to them out of fear anymore. Before trump I had a “no lesser of two evils” policy for voting. And I’m going back to it. They had 4 years to plan, hold a primary, do some prosecuting of rich criminals, understand why Trump’s popular and strategize to beat it, literally fucking anything. Did they?

I’m over it, they can run a fair primary with some progressive candidates and let the people decide, and then I’ll vote. Tired of whatever they’re doing and it looks like a lot of others are as well. Hope they figure out the obvious issue they have and fix it. Since its a two party system they’re hogging the only route that the left has to success and fucking it up remarkably bad. Like I could do a better job and I’m an idiot.
