Imagine two main political parties that each try to do their best for their constituents and their country, are ethical and upstanding citizens, and willing to work with their peers to build the future. Imagine choosing between multiple legitimate candidates by policy, rather than fear of fascism
And MAGAts are useful fools for Russia
Huh, article blames mostly weather and crop burning so they tried to crack down on fireworks. Sounds about right.
Too bad this doesn’t affect a capital city where the people able to do something about it would also be affected
TIL … thanks
Maybe I don’t know enough Doom lore but he seems not evil in the same way as Thanos. Sincerely believes that his way is the right way and the ego to try to force it on everyone else.
Or maybe Doom is not evil in the same way as saying Nazis made the trains run on time

Replacing brakes on an EV should be much less frequent, since regenerative braking doesn’t use the brakes
Tesla require a better grounding than the building code in most countries
Is this a European thing too? I’ve never heard of this limitation in the US, and I certainly didn’t have to get anything changed. I’m curious about the details
Ford - not misuse of pardon. You may disagree with his choice but that reason is legit
Bush - criminals of the previous administration, not misuse for personal reasons
Clinton - yep, a couple
Bush jr,- 1
How many was that for Trump again? Are you seriously going for “both sides the same”?
Usually it’s killing us slower though. I don’t know if that’s progress
Do you have examples? While they all pardon people, most don’t misuse that by power to let friends and family avoid justice.
I tried searching for articles on misuse of the pardon power and besides Trump only saw Nixon’s intent to but didn’t.
For example, Obama pardoned a record number but most were excessive sentences for nonviolent drug offenses, and more were to correct racial biases
Edit: here’s an article that does give multiple examples but also makes clear the scope of Trumps misuse was unprecedented
Yeah, my white collar, salaried, not unionized brother works for a major manufacturer and constantly complains about unions. Then he’ll go on to talk about all the overtime pay he gets while traveling … not appreciating that salaried positions don’t get overtime pay (in the US), and he has the union to thank for that.
If you’re just shifting the scenario, same answer.
For example, I used to save money when I had to fly by using an airport over an hour drive away and being willing to take the first flight. That meant getting up about 2-3am. That’s not even worth trying. I slept at my destination
Sure, but my point is that while all kids deserve a well funded education system, all kids deserve high standards, all kids deserve all the opportunity, politics will still determine that level. We clearly already have a situation where different places have wildly different ideas of the value of a good education, and putting a cap on spending won’t change that
But it’s different to say a town shouldn’t pay more. I’ll vote for better funding for schools whereever they’re needed to bring all kids’ future up to my standards, even at the expense of my increased taxes to pay for it, but I will not let them limit my kids’ future down to their regressive standards.
Seriously, and wipe your goddam feet on the mat or take your shoes off.
Didn’t Canada give up the name “Northwest Territories”? Maybe we can re-use that and no one will notice
My cutoff is three hours. If I sleep for less than three hours, it’s worse than no sleep, at least in the morning
Great, I always wondered if a dog or kid hit my toolbox at some point and how it keeps smelling after decades
But why would they even need their target market to switch? They needed to also do online shopping: with their existing distribution, their existing catalog, their existing delivery or in-store pickup. They already had most of the pieces so just needed the online part to bring in new customers or keep customers from switching
After the dictator dies, there is always a battle of wannabes trying to replace him, a map of regional warlords trying to be the next Grand Cheetoh. Hopefully those regional warlords fall into obscurity and sanity prevails
