The only correct response, you don't bargain with terrorists. Her turning up and debating it legitimises it like it's an actual educational option and not lies.

It means the people fighting against it are only fighting against it because they don't get anything from it and that maybe they need to stop and consider that not every piece of legislation needs to benefit them and them only.

I follow the Adam Savage school of tool buying, if you are not sure you're going to use the tool a lot buy a cheap one, by the time it finally "dies" you'll know if it's worth investing in better quality.

Because they can pay kids less than minimum wage.

Yeah but these guys aren't trying to make a profit from us and Reddit had venture capital money.

He was born rich, bought businesses where other people had done all the heavy thinking already and marketed himself well. Like Trump is a poor persons idea of a rich man, Elon is a dumb person's idea of a smart person.

Oh no public money now has to be used to do all those things Disney paid for, leading to higher taxes. Yeah we showed them.

Just throwing out there, this was one generation out of however many to the dawn of time that was able to do this. And they did it on the backs of the hundreds of thousands of people that fought, starved and died to get unions established. For the vast majority of history, if you could work you worked man, woman & child because if you didn't your family starved. Then people fought for generations to get unions established and they finally did it and one single generation got the advantages of it before the next generation decided they didn't need no stinking unions as they were working white collar jobs and here we are. We're not standing together so we're falling together.

Stay at home wife. I used to work as a bookkeeper, now dealing with some health issues. However I am 55 and have used computers since as long as i can remember, I learned how to use punch cards in what you yanks would call middle school. So I don't work in tech, but it doesn't bother me to learn new things. Lemmy reminds me of the good old days of BBS and just trying things out to see what stuck.

Cool opinion, just explain to me how say a mother of 3 that can't find or afford a sitter is supposed to vote? Or her husband who is working 2 jobs to pay rent is supposed to find time? How about the elderly that don't have a car? The handicapped? What if I have a contagious disease? I should just turn on up to a busy polling booth and spread my TB all over the place? Or am immunocompromised and could die from a cold, probably spread by that sick person that had to turn up to vote? All those people lose their right to vote because they can't get to a polling place on the one day they allow voting? You are removing their rights why?

I call that sticker the "I'm a racist and a wife beater" confessional sticker.

Yeah, they're going to have to stop saying they are "Pro Life" and claiming they worry about "the babies".

Crocs. They are super comfortable and cured my foot pain. Still ugly, but I will never not own a pair as long as they keep making them.

r/cancer It was a nice space to find support of other people going through what I'm going through.

She thinks of the toys as her babies. Do they squeak? That can often trigger that reaction from female cats.

Everyone saying they've seen this so many times, yet this is my first time seeing it.

It can be about more than one thing. It started as a protest for pricing changes and then became about the lack of respect show to protestors and is slowly heading to attempts to burn it all down.

No, because you don't run out in public and start insulting random passing strangers without repercussions well you don't do it and not expect repercussions unless you are mentally ill. So why should you be able to do it in public here, just because it's online. If you want to say hateful things in RL you have to find like minded hateful people to say them with why should being online be any different?

It's something we haven't seen at the the movies for a while. A nice fun action romp. Think what Marvel films used to be at the start when they were self contained stories and not just set up for the next movie. It somehow manages to be exactly like a D&D game while also being completely enjoyable even if you don't know what D&D is.

Yeah but if he wins there is going to be violence. I'd rather take my chances with the violence that happens because he lost than because he's ordering people that disagree with him off into camps.
