Just to be devils advocate, while a law like this doesn't seem bad, yay social programs, doesn't it sort of set up more precedent that a child is a child at conception? In turn making it harder to argue for abortion rights based on other existing laws like this one.

What is a gender neutral replacement for man, guys, buddy, etc?

So I've realized that in conversations I'll use traditional terms for men as general terms for all genders, both singularly and for groups. I always mean it well, but I've been thinking that it's not as inclusive to women/trans people....

A wise man once said, "I'm a dude, he's a dudes, she's a dude. We're all dudes. Hey!"

Cuban says he’d vote for Biden even if ‘he was being given last rites’ ( thehill.com )

The billionaire also told the outlet that he plans to vote for former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley in the Texas GOP primary Tuesday as “a protest vote against Trump,” but that he would still support the current president versus the former one.

I know lots of dems are mad at Biden, but it's like they forgot what happened two elections ago. People were mad that Hilary was forced down their throats and didn't like her as a candidate. They didn't vote for her out of protest and look what happened. I've been hearing more and more the same kind of talk this election cycle. No one likes being forced to vote for a candidate, and they should certainly have a better campaign than, "Well look at the alternative," but not voting for Biden is basically voting for Trump. Primaries are absolutely the time to make a protest vote, but let's not fall for this nonsense again. Biden is not handling the Palestine/Isreal problem well but the alternative would be even worse.

You completely twisted what I said. Who is mad at voters? Who said I didn't want a better candidate. All I said was don't fall for the same trap as last time.

RampageDon ,

Complains about strong bias here like it isn't just as bad or worse on reddit.

RampageDon ,

Dang. I've heard of the Sunday sads, but scaries is a whole different level.

RampageDon ,

I actually put in a full effort into what I do. My previous manager would find something wrong with anything I did even if i did it exactly like they said. Why bother doing high quality work when your boss is a miserable person and will just make up shit about how it's bad or wrong anyway.

Different article I read said he was breaking into cars to steal insurance cards and registrations.

Trump is disqualified from Illinois ballot, judge rules ( www.reuters.com )

An Illinois state judge on Wednesday barred Donald Trump from appearing on the Illinois' Republican presidential primary ballot because of his role in the attack at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, but she delayed her ruling from taking effect in light of an expected appeal by the former U.S president.

RampageDon ,

Correct me if I'm wrong but being removed from the primary ballot has no real standing for general election. It doesn't matter that he can't be on the primary when the GOP has chosen him already. It's just posturing. He hasn't lost any electoral votes.

RampageDon ,

I don't understand. Assuming it's Trump vs Biden doesn't change anything about what I said.

RampageDon ,

I just said I didn't understand your comment. That was your chance to explain to me what you meant or what I was missing. Instead you turned to insults. So I'll just assume not only was your comment wrong and you couldn't explain yourself, you took it personally. That's all the clarification I needed. Cheers!

RampageDon ,

Right. I wasn't trying to say that this isn't setting precedent that will help for later rulings. Let's just not count our chickens before they hatch. Some people are acting like Trump is already down electoral votes because of this, which he isn't. That's the only point I was trying to make l.

RampageDon ,

Literally quotes "assuming it's Trump vs Biden in the general" to try and prove their point no one understands. Then gets mad that the comment after is made about the literal 8 words they quoted as a rebuttal. You are a comical person.

    Put a $12,150 bet on red/black roulette. Jokes aside, if there was an easy way to get that much money fast and easy, it probably wouldn't be worth that much anymore.

    RampageDon ,

    Not one specific post, but I did like bean memes going around for a while. It was right around a reddit migration so people were just coming in and having no idea wtf was going on.

    What are your experiences with the Mandela Effect?

    See title. For those who don’t know, the Mandela Effect is a phenomenon where a large group of people remember something differently than how it occurred. It’s named after Nelson Mandela because a significant number of people remembered him dying in prison in the 1980s, even though he actually passed away in 2013....

    Wait isn't there a movie like this but it's Shaq as the genie. Kazaam.

    Ghost types are only weak to psychic in that game because they are poison types too. Ruined me for generations swearing psychic was super to ghost.

    I was really hoping this was going to be a patient gamer shitpost lol

    RampageDon ,

    I think it was fine and understood the joke you were making.

    RampageDon ,

    If you can't remember what you voted for or against, sounds like you are mentally unfit to be in office.

    RampageDon ,

    But they aren't left to that fate because every time the wind blows to hard and their power grid fails they come crawling for federal disaster relief hand outs to fix it.

    Those shanties are probably more structurally sound than some of the cardboard and paper they throw up in 2 days and call luxury apartments.

    Sanders warns Biden: address working-class fears or risk losing to demogogue ( www.theguardian.com )

    In an interview with the Guardian from his home base in Burlington, Vermont, Sanders urged the Democratic president to inject more urgency into his bid for re-election. He said that unless the president was more direct in recognising the many crises faced by working-class families his Republican rival would win....

    Or if Gore won

    Texas power plants have no responsibility to provide electricity in emergencies, judges rule ( www.kut.org )

    Almost three years since the deadly Texas blackout of 2021, a panel of judges from the First Court of Appeals in Houston has ruled that big power companies cannot be held liable for failure to provide electricity during the crisis. The reason is Texas’ deregulated energy market....

    Remember when Texas was threatening to secede and then everyone realized the state just falls apart when they have any kind of weather besides 90 and sunny.
