This is exactly how I feel. Reddit is so full of bots, spam, and ads that it's really only good for checking a few niche subreddits. I can browse Lemmy at random and be pretty entertained.

I too will vote Harris, but I think it's important to understand that voting out of fear is not going to fix our extremely broken two party system. Voting third party is not a vote for Trump, I think it's often a vote born of a broken two party system.

Despite knowing that I can't bring myself to vote third party out of fear that I may not get another chance to vote if Trump takes power.

My daughter gets books from the imagination library. It's a wonderful service.

Citizens United is the framework for some of the worst trends in US politics, but peoples main election concern is tHe eConOmY.

Is this real? I'm having a hard time believing he posted this.

It seems like they're saying that it markets guns, not the typical argument that it makes kids violent. This argument seems less crazy to me.

Rental companies, at least in America, have policies against using their vehicles to tow things.

In addition the truck in front has to be imported to the US and there's weird regulations about purchasing them so you can only buy used. As far as I know you can't import a new model. If a car is newer than 25 years old it can not be imported unless it meets the requirements of US Office of Vehicle Safety Compliance.

A lot of woodworking, a lot of fishing, and a lot of hanging out with family. It would be glorious.

I've written to many of my state and federal legislators over the span of 20+ years. it's not effective. We need campaign finance before, we need to overturn citizens United, and we need to change our two party system.

I understand your perspective but I disagree on some points.

I think it is regulatory. However getting US politicians to do what's right is never trivial. It would take the legislative branch to change the regulations, while likely ignoring lobbyists within the automotive industry. It's fixable but it won't be fixed.

The first few octets of the Mac address are unique to a manufacturer. This may at least help narrow which device it is. You can look it up at https://macaddress.io/

My 9 month old daughter is really making great progress in her motor skills and she is super curious about the world, and is laughing and smiling a lot. The mere thought of her brings me an overwhelming amount of joy.

Two is the only one with long enough tines, but that spoon tail on the handle ruins it for me.

Makes sense. There two party system is vehicular to the existing two parties. Why give a third option.

I again think you need to settle down. I am not voting third party because I like you apparently will just view out of fear.

That said, The math had not been explained to me so show it to me. post it for anyone who agrees with me. Show me the math.

Next you've decided that I have some feeling of superiority. I don't. I simply think the two party system has failed us and needs to change. People in power have a stake in keeping a two party system for their own benefit, and it infuriates me.
