My state is similar to yours, dmv hours are same state wide and location wise they are not totally out of the way.

Same documents, birth cert, social card, 2 proofs of address.

Those requirements, while easy enough and even doable for the homeless, are harder for some than others, specifically the poor.

Those people who used shelter addresses didn't have to pay (thats national, first time and renewals are free to homeless.) Someone who is poor but not homeless has to pay. Also poor people often leave their parents home without their social and birth cert. Or have no where to safely store them and lose or have them stolen. Also, social security cards are not assigned to you at birth. If mom or dad never filed for one for you, congrats you get to do it as a adult. This can create a whole catch 22 style loop of them getting fucked.

Anyways, I'm not explaining myself well, but yes requiring state ID (non drivers license) to vote is prohibitive to a lot of otherwise entitled voters.

We should retire the idiom because people are using it as intended and everyone understands it as intended?

Older millienal. I bought the phone case wallet. Opens like a book. I'll admit, when it arrived and I slapped my new phone in it, I realized I've only ever seen old man and women use this kind of case. Felt weird for all of ten seconds. I fucking love it.

That being said, I am surprised how many people are asking where people keep their cards and cash. A lot of people literally just use pockets. Like, they raw dog cash, id, some credit or debit cards and got like 2 or 3 loose keys. Don't get me wrong, they are crazy people and I will literally laugh at them when they wonder aloud where their card is, they JUST had it. But it's a lot of em. (Worked in retail over a decade, still work in a field where I ask people for their stuff and payment).

I don't know the person in the OP, but I am assuming she is not talking about a pack of bagels you buy from the grocer. I imagine she is talking about the grocer selling packaged bagels in the aisle and having a baked goods section with bagels from a bakery in the same city. And also have one or two bagel places local. And also cafes or similar establishments that rep their bagel game.

I do not know Germany 's bagel game. Just saying being able to buy a thing at the grocer does not mean you have access to the jawn the way others do. For example I can buy sushi at the grocery store near my work.

Guys notes look like something a Sov Cit has. Fucking nuts.

peteypete420 ,

Not if the eating and drinking at a reasonable price was part of the appeal.

peteypete420 ,

They said you die one or two days after eating. You could definitely eat more than once in that time.

Sadly it didn't last very long, the boy was immediately banned from the pool for littering into the pool.

I have seen so many memes like this about people not voting for Biden cause he is awful, but none saying we shouldn't vote for him. Or any comments from people saying they won't vote for him. This is starting to seem like the Vegan people meme.

peteypete420 ,

I don't really doubt you I guess. I'm not as immersed yet in the fediverse as I was in that other thing.

The memes that suggest Biden is also no good for us seem to get a hell of a lot of downvotes tho.

I'm not a hundred percent sure myself what I will do in November. I still remember in either 7th or 8th grade when our social studies teacher taught us that George Washington was very opposed to a two party system and why. Around 15 or 16 years old, I realized I could vote for AL Gore, or some third party. Not because they would win. My father explained very clearly that we will never see a third party president in his lifetime, and it's very unlikely I will either. But I did/do think more votes for them could help start the idea that it's possible. But every fucking election, including that one against George W Bush, it was wayyyy to important to stop these awful republicans from ruining the country. I still have voted Democrat every fucking presidential election and they have been a fucking let down every time.

I'll admit Trump was the first to actively and directly make almost everything worse, almost immediately. And no I don't want him back. But I also don't think he will ever get around the two term limit so the installation of a permanent fascist government does not scare me. And the public fucking thumbs up for a genocide may be my last straw with the dems for president.

I don't know. Sorry for the rant.

peteypete420 ,

Understandable. I dont need my third party candidate to be perfect on every issue, they won't be elected anyways right? But yea genocide and war, those are pretty major.

peteypete420 ,

Now I can post memes telling you to vote for Biden! When I first heard the term Libertarian and realized they considered themselves a third party, I thought oooo maybe this is it. Read a little about them and realized I would have to pass.

More power to you tho.

peteypete420 ,

Hey you do you, but spitting them doesn't mean much to me. They are not worth it. I just want to feel like seeing some good change in this country is possible.

I don't want to be to defeatist, don't get me wrong. People in this country fight for and accomplish good things every day, just feels like one step forward two steps back.

peteypete420 ,

Hot dam yall taking my last slivers of hope.

peteypete420 ,

With Arabian MooooOOOooons

peteypete420 ,

Yes, people are unsatisfied with Biden for that one reason and only that reason. Nothing else at all.

peteypete420 ,

O it is, I agree with you. But it ain't the only one.

peteypete420 ,

Trump is worse on all issues. I dont doubt that. Doesn't mean lots of voters are feed up with democrats force feeding us conservative options.

peteypete420 ,

I don't understand why people are explaining how dangerous bears are. It really isn't the point.

peteypete420 ,

I realize that having it done as a newborn I'll never really know, but mutilated? As an adult iv seen and played with those flesh danglers. Listen we are all humans and beautiful, but fucking hell I'm happy with mine. They are like one of those weird deep sea critters you see on nat geo or sciencememes.

True, if I ever have a baby I'll make the argument to the mom we SHOULD give the kid the choice... but I know that as a poor adult I would never do it now. But am happy it's been done.

I hate to sound like a "Liberal" talking about Palestine, but this may be a somewhat nuanced situation.

peteypete420 ,

Is hard Sci fi different from Sci fi? What's makes it hard?

peteypete420 ,

If you work part time in Finland, and spend that pay on booze and drugs, can you still collect to social welfare for home and food?

peteypete420 ,

Nope, has no points is pointless.

peteypete420 ,

Yea my argument is already so well rounded.

peteypete420 ,

I would not say both sides are the same, but this a bullshit oversimplification. The dems are not some ray of sunshine who have only made this country better.

peteypete420 ,

That what I was talking about. This post is a bad faith response to the both sides argument.

peteypete420 ,

Like seriously, you can just live on the street for free while you save up to buy real estate. Duh!

peteypete420 ,

Newbie here, do I not see lemmygrad stuff on my "all" feed because I am on the shitjustworks instance?

I can pull it up in the search bar, but don't seem able to subscribe.

I probably need to watch a newbs guide to the fediverse video or something. Like I understand the basic idea, but not the nuances or technical stuff.

peteypete420 ,

To fuck around is human. To find out is divine.

peteypete420 ,

Is ain't southern? I'm in Philly and swear ain't is used way more than isn't.

peteypete420 ,

Ha, I was all excited to better read the shit beneath the projector screen. Still tho, good job.

peteypete420 ,

Gotcha. I would imagine it's common in most of our region or accents.

peteypete420 ,

O? You are not excited and happy to have Biden as president again? You aren't jizzing in your pants at the thought of voting for him again? Clearly you are a MAGAt Trump supporter stop posing as a liberal or something!!

peteypete420 ,

Dam, always thought he spelled it Dicksin Dallas.

peteypete420 ,

I fully agree with what he says, but it doesn't seem to be an answer to her question.

Yes, our right to privacy is important, and he very clearly, and, not sure how say it, makes it relatable and easy to understand.

But, her question seems to have more to do with privacy at the cost of public safety.

peteypete420 ,

Living isn't without risks.

peteypete420 ,

I love Dad jokes. Not sure about how I feel seeing them always presented in the Cap starts a fight meme. Anyway that's a good one.
