Absolutely fucking brilliant.

This is a fantastic post. Thank you. I do know that the Feds often use the Commerce Clause to put the lie to my original statement, but with the abandonment of Roe, I've repeatedly heard "it's in the hands of the States" so maybe my hope is that someone somewhere my see a need to remain intellectually consistent.

Pipe dream, but a nice thought.

Not progressive, and I roll my eyes at many things California does. That said I 100% applaud this. I wish more states used their power as individual states to reign in the Federal government.

Remember The Constitution says any rights not specifically granted to the Feds are the States.

Good for California.

You can try The Free Press their coverage starts at 7pm Eastern tomorrow.

This sounds like exactly my response to a ”Christian” movie. They are so ridiculously bad because to earn the label "Christian" they have to be preachy.

We had just moved from Portland to Denver, and were trying new restaurants. One Sunday we ordered delivery from a local Chinese place that had good reviews. Food came, we ate and all was good for a couple of hours.

Then my wife said "I think I'm gonna puke* and dashed for the bathroom. Being the good husband, I followed her to hold her hair while she worshipped the porcelain god.

She had barely got done emptying the content of her stomach, when I literally had to shove her out of the way to emoty mine.

We were both miserable for about 36 hours.

11-22-63 by myself and The Hail Mary Project with my wife.

I just finished listening to all 14 Honor Harrington novels.

I'm just impressed by the logistics of getting this put together so very quickly. No matter what you think of Trump, someone was in the ball.

A while back a woman died after eating at a Disney restaurant and being assured that the food she was ordering was allergen free. Disney responded very poorly to the husband's suit, but I wonder if the Disney employee believed things were allergen free because of one of these hacked menus.

That's really a valid point.

Boredom after some period of time, you will have some everything there is to do.

Why? Is it not Hamas run? If it's not Hamas run, then it shouldn't be called Hamas run, but if it is Hamas run what's the issue?

I envy you having a farm! My wife's a Soldier we move a lot currently I'm sitting amongst a lot of cornfields. While I'm surprised at how much I like it here, I really miss Kentucky which is where we moved from.

The worshipping of the con man really bugs me. I came out of the religious right, and while I believe that it is possible for someone to support Trump for completely valid reasons, I didn't believe you can be a Christian and do so. If you are a Christian and support him, you are a shitty Christian. Don't be surprised if whenyou get to the Pearly Gates you hear "get away from me for I never new you!"

Thanks for this post. I appreciate the fact that you're engaging in good faith.

I tell people I'm an optimistic pessimist. Absolutely convinced the world is going to hell, but that we'll have a helluva good time along the way.

I think our also helps that I'm old. My son's are likely older than most Lemmy users. I'm older than Pong, so I've watched the world change a lot in my six decades. A lot of people have predicted a lot of doom in those years, and the doomsayers have pretty much always been wrong.

Our nation is far from perfect, but we have been changing in a positive direction my entire life. I didn't expect that to change because an Orange Idiot may be in the Oval Office again.

This is a valid point, but I have faith in the Republic in which we live. I also refuse to live my life in fear. Losing sleep over an orange buffoon is not something I'm interested in doing.

We shouldn't be he will be mostly ineffectual. He's an orange blow-hard, nothing more.

My wife and daughter mock me all the time...

Is he crying yet?

Any time there's an emotional scene in what we are watching.

I tell people I cry when Lassie comes home.

This "men don't cry" bullshit is just so tiresome.

EA used to be amazing. My first two games were Archon and Seven Cities of Gold in the Amiga 1000.

They were great games. EA didn't start to really suck until the era of the Internet.

Conservatives typically win by promising what they will not do vs. what they will do. (At least the true conservatives do. Not all Republicans are conservative though)

I use Plex's download feature to make sure I always have music available. The same could be done for other media but I don't bother.
