  • Kellogg, Post and Graham were all fucked.

  • Condom. You can see that it's there. Closest you can get.

  • Right. It happens to symbols that aren't widely used. Fascists couldn't co-opt the Disney logo or something. Even if copyright or trademark wasn't a thing, no one would cede it.

    The most common thing I can think of is the OK symbol, which people mostly didn't let them take for very long.

  • Different housing issue. Separate from high costs or homelessness. Just about how neighborhoods and cities are designed.

  • Ah yeah. It was the total votes and minimums for Wyoming in Congress I was thinking of. That needs to be readjusted.

  • Yeah, but most people aren't trying to grow a food forest. It's unlikely you're shopping for a city or suburbia house, either. You probably want more land a bit farther out.

    Also are you trying to grow fruit trees and food plants in your front yard? That's mostly what I have a problem with. Back yards/gardens make more sense for stuff like growing food, decks, pools, etc.

  • I wish we could get away from lawns entirely. I understand a back garden a bit, but why do we need 20' of space between the house and sidewalk/road? We could fit a lot more houses in there if we didn't have a useless bunch of space. Like we could have manicured parks in a lot of spaces and then a bunch of fields or forested areas where it wasn't convenient to build homes for unusable green space.

  • Anything the fascists touch is tainted. People forgot about this flag for decades and now it'll be associated with treason and hate for decades longer. Anyone trying to pretend it's anything but support for insurrection is lying to you because they are too cowardly to admit they are traitors.

  • If you aren't moving to the bathroom, getting luggage, or doing something else that requires you to move and leave your seat: wear your seatbelt. This is why they say to keep it buckled. Unexpected turbulence of this magnitude is rare but can still happen and injure or kill people. It's also why you have to put non-handheld items away on landing: turbulence or a strong bump can send laptops and such flying into people.

  • Looking over the wikipedia page on this mushroom and all the similar, very edible ones...Yeah I'm never foraging mushrooms.

  • This is just how it's always worked. It was just easier to convince people to believe in miracles when we didn't have explanations for everything and video cameras. The church is reaching for coincidences and calling them miracles because that's the best they can do. I'm just surprised they are still trying to make saints and not just settling for Saint Classic.

  • A state isn't being formed: they're just moving the lines. So I don't think that comes into play.

  • It's so fucking weird anyone would want to move to Idaho.

  • Will this change the number of electoral votes and house representative each state has? Because if not, this seems to benefit Oregon: concentrates Republicans in Idaho while lessening the impact of their vote.

  • Co-sign? People do not understand what voting is and use these dramatic phrases. It's damage mitigation and it always has been. That's party politics: you almost never get your first choice. Compromise is the only way. Sometimes the compromise sucks but if the alternative is far worse, you do the grown up thing and prevent the most damage.

  • Well we've been trying that for 100 years and it turns out it doesn't work because people are easily distracted and are generally terrible at driving.

  • 8 fingered Johnny...

  • The Democratic National Convention, where Biden is to be formally nominated, falls after Ohio’s ballot deadline of Aug. 7. The convention will be held Aug. 19-22 in Chicago.

    Since Ohio changed its certification deadline from 60 to 90 days ahead of the general election, state lawmakers have had to adjust the requirement twice, in 2012 and 2020, to accommodate candidates of both parties. Each change was only temporary.

    If all the candidates aren't on the ballot, Congress should not accept their votes for president and toss the entire state out. That's ridiculous.

  • Really hope the environments are a bit more varied in this one.
