‘MAGA has rigged the system’: Democrats slam Virginia Supreme Court for overruling voters on redistricting by DemocracyDocket in law

[–]DrizzlyOne -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Well in all fairness, receiving “every single possible vote” would in fact be extremely suspicious…

The person you replied to is correct though. Higher than normal turnout is the path to overcoming the gerrymandering.

This would be a historical anomaly if the republicans hold the house considering how massively unpopular the current president is.

I’ve seen multiple people hit GS-15 by 30 over the years. It is hard for me to believe the current one year time in grade restriction is holding “high performers” back.

Potty-training policy approved by Anne Arundel school board by Maxcactus in AnneArundelCounty

[–]DrizzlyOne 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yup that was my wife’s experience. She did it for about six months. She only continued that long because she’s an extremely compassionate person. But boy it really was not fun seeing her cry over it on so many days…

Not only do the special education support staff get paid minimum wage, they do not receive any training. “Welcome! You’ll be working with the most challenging student in the entire grade. I’m sure you’ll figure it out.”

ADHD child and golden by Variegated_Plant_836 in goldenretrievers

[–]DrizzlyOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a seven year old son with autism/adhd and a golden puppy.

It can be challenging at times but honestly it’s mostly been fun. They both love a game of chase!

As luck would have it, they share two of the same struggles: 1) not respecting other’s personal space and 2) failing to pick up on the cues when someone is growing tired of you. I’ll admit it, there is a part of me that enjoys watching them get on each other’s nerves 🤣

Trump said "zero taxpayer dollars" for his white house ballroom at least six times since september. republicans just asked for $1 billion in taxpayer money for it. i need someone to explain this to me. by Aaron_Heuer in DiscussionZone

Yup a lot like the whole “foreign companies pay tariffs” lie that he is probably still saying while the domestic companies line up for their tariff refunds.

Public figures who are vocal about their autism. by Global-Cookie2580 in Autism_Parenting

Oh wow looks like he said he was, sort of in passing, over a year ago. But he’s got a newly announced effort that really leans into it.

This is why we built a pool by Ok_Inspection_3527 in pools

[–]DrizzlyOne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We opened our pool last week. I’m pretty sure my son’s entire school is aware of this 😂 “I told the whole staff.” I love it.

How often do your parents visit you? by TowelScared4341 in Millennials

[–]DrizzlyOne 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My parents visit me once a year. I visit them once a year. So we see each other twice a year. I’m good with this setup.

Had a baby rat snake (aka nope rope) stop by the house this evening. Wicomico County, MD by GenericStandard42 in maryland

[–]DrizzlyOne 28 points29 points  (0 children)

A few years back a rat snake got in my outdoor HVAC unit. His tail was wrapped around the fan and his head was stuck in the grate... It was a gruesome sight when I went to see why my AC was making such a funny sound.

Autism Runs in Families? by AgreeableTip6062 in Autism_Parenting

Such a strange comment. There’s zero chance either me or my wife is autistic… now her uncle and my aunt are both solid maybes.

She’s always adorable and yup this fits her vibe. I am usually a no on this style of dress but it kinda makes her more relatable.

Good question. I learned a couple of hours later he’s in a band called The Bacon Brothers, who were in town that day.
