Can you detail for me how voting No Confidence (which would be a write in, at least for presidential elections) works in the US? Additionally, how does this vote impact decisions any way more or less than voting for any candidate?
If it's the ones pictures above, they're actually really decent at keeping things cold/hot, not overpriced at all at their performance. This guy I follow does a lot of weird shot for shot tests and tumblers were one of them.
You never responded to any of the points called out in the article you linked. You can't post something, and be mad when no one "believes your truth". If you do, you're not asking to change people's minds, you just want to shout into the void too.
My wife and I use the pinky promise as a sacred oath and sometimes an investigative tool.
If we're not okay, or we're worried the other is putting on a face to get through a moment without being honest, the pinky is used as a "I won't ask again, just promise me you're alright, or will be alright, and we're good" and that kicks off a conversation or she confirms that she's fine and the tone is residual from another frustration.
Pinky is sacred, if my wife lied on a pinky promise, it would breach our deepest marital trust.
I mean, Jon Stewart is pretty left if you consider the majority of Democrats to be Neoliberals. Jon lambasted everyone, and that's fine, bit then he lambasted companies and "centrist" talking points, and THAT was too far for some.
The problem is that I don't believe there is no ethical consumption under capitalism, that statement encompasses the argument of "there's no ethical consumption of meat" which seems to be the one you began with. I'm willing to agree there's an over consumption of meat in US diets, I myself struggle to shove more veggies into my life and cut back on the steaks and burgers, but to frame all meat consumption as "needless slaughter" underneath an article about a teen dying in a processing is drastically tone deaf.
You just going to sidestep the other points above that talk about exploitation of children and the planet or do you just want to talk about cattle? Because if cattle is more important than those things, please let me know so I can write this off as a conversation not worth having.
For some, but it's just that it's diminishing returns as you go up. 60 going to 120 is about as visually distinct as going 120 to 240, and then 240 to 480.
I have had a 120hz, 144hz, and 165hz monitors in my house, and although the 120-144 jump was pretty much undetectable to me, thr 120-160 was smoother but not like when I first moved to 120.
I'm colorblind though, so color accuracy doesn't always do much for me until my wife points out people's skin looking weird if I've switched to a color palette that's easier to track for me.
Or, you know, regulate it for safety like any other industry.
If you're paying for ANY clothing you didn't make yourself, you're paying and driving demand for underage laborers in impoverished countries to make your stuff.
If you're using the internet, that costs electricity and that's (on average) produced by fossil fuels at power generators, spurring on demand for further pollution and destruction of our planet.
The above are examples of silly arguments, but do you see how you might have propped up an unrelated point about veganism/vegetarianism during a story about a dead teenager?
That really stinks, I remember the feeling of not wanting the thrifted Hollister or other big name branded clothes my mom would try to get because I knew the other kids would think I had money and treat me differently (poor rural town). It was kind of surreal to be poor, but my parents were fighting the image of poor, only making it harder for us to blend in with the poor community around us. She insisted that they were nice clothes and her children would go to school in nice clothes. To be fair, those clothes were uncomfortable and had print/designs that made it too warm for sweaty pig me. I also had a stutter and an accent from another part of the country, so it wasn't doing me any favors.
I'm glad your parents were able to take advantage of a program that helped them, but man does poverty leave such weird marks on every age involved.
Every full moon, she transforms into a were-american, guns sprout from her hands, a dual 64-oz drinking hat bursts from her skull, complete with Big Glug Gator-aid (freedom flavored), and she howls the US constitution into the night while driving over protesters in her lifted somehow-dualie black escalade.
When I'm feeling particularly spiteful, I quick apply to hybrid jobs I see that aren't hybrid and waste time until I get an email from the hiring manager about a first call. Then I tell them I just wanted to be sure they knew they had an incorrect posting and that I wasn't interested in a company that didn't understand modern workforce trends at best, maliciously baiting and switching at worst.
So far, 1 company has changed their wording, of maybe 20 I've gotten this far with
Yeah I like to bring up when talking about WFH, there should be a pay bump for required on-site workers. If that means physical laboring jobs get a yearly % increase or whatever that I don't get, no skin off my back, and then it's harder to pit worker against worker
Man, my house needs sealed better, or maybe it's just finally time to bite the bullet and move. My rent's cheap, house is shit, landlords mostly forget we exist but there aren't tons of problems normally...except when windchill hits and gets in the negatives, then my kitchen is a whole different climate than the rest of the house and I know it's costing me in heating
The most confused but based Ally I've ever met
