You can tell by the way it lifts it's skinny fists like antennas to heaven that it's Godspeedyou nigrumperatorem

Even the rural college town my grandma grew up in had tram lines running down the main streets in the 30's and to both colleges. If a city had more than 20,000 residents 100 years ago, they probably had a tram system that was pulled up at GM's behest.

I'm saying that you can only piss on someone and call it rain for so long. Young voters onow that both parties are going to screw them over regardless, so they don't want to vote. It's turkeys voting on the side dishes at Thanksgiving.

Loan forgiveness isn't a solution. It's something the immediately help, but it does nothing ti address the growing costs of the higher education that is needed for any sort of comfortable life.

It's a concerningly lovely day in the western basin. Shit is rough for me financially, but I'm gonna go out and run some errands before work tonight. I'm curious to see what the crowd will be like at the bar, especially since it has been so dead recently.

Issue 1 took up the entire back page of my ballot yesterday and was just nonsensical legalese. People voted on it based on how there prefered candidates told them to, and we all saw who their preferred candidates were last night.

It's the ratchet effect. The GOP drives us further to the right while the DNC stop us from moving to the left.

People thought that the Tea Party would drive away support for the GOP, but they got everything they wanted by being loud and demanding it from the GOP. Conservative voters get everything they want from the Republicans because they demand it. Meanwhile Democrats are constantly trying to snub the Progressives and leftists from the party and then except those snubbed groups to keep voting for them.

Clearly that failed, and will continue to fail. There is no sich thing as a never Trump Republican because he gives conservatives everything they want. Democrats will continue to lose until they vreak away from Regan style neoliberalism. They need to start offering actual solutions that benefit workers like universal healthcare, returns to pension plans, and housing reforms.

Maybe the ossue was Democrats trying to appeal to Republican voters, who would rather vote for Republicans and get everything they want instead of only some of what they want.

Spoiler alert, it's gonna be Muslims.

Toyota and Honda have to meet similar regulations in markets that have those regulations but aren't as insanely car focused as the US. They aren't going to make a radically different Accord or Corolla for the US market just because they can. The leadership for US manufacturers are just lazy and have been for the past 50 years.

Damn, sounds like nationalizing an industry leads to lower costs and cheaper products.

Correct, because Uncle Sam is spending hundreds of billions of dollars to make oil and gas as cheap as possible while automakers spend bullions every year on stock buybacks. America's poor investments are all China's fault.

He fired his PR yeam years agter he called that diver a pedophile. He's always been like this, there's just no one trying to cover for him anymore.

I mean, deer kill about 400 people a year in the US and they aren't even trying. 280 million people live in the Delta alongside a predator that is actually trying to kill them, so it mkaes sense.

Sour cream or cream cheese are pretty common here in Ohio.

You can thank Elon Musk for that.

They are a single orifice kind of animal. Take a gulp of sea water, sift oit the goodies, and expel the rest

Sliding the deer under your car is also really bad for you. It's going to do a lot of damage under there such as ripping break lines, destroying ball joints, or fragging your differentials. You need to safely shed as much speed as possible while maintaining your lane when about to hit a deer.
