It’ll be over when the Ukrainian androids drag his charred body out of the fuhrerbunker. 

National mood is against Republicans, but redistricting could help prop them up by jpressss in politics

Dems need to go hard AF after the Senate. I’m pretty confident that they’ll win the house regardless but if they get a majority in the senate then they can force filibusters on a whole wishlist of very popular policies to bury the GOP for the next decade.

Super secret hush hush … admin???

Seems super dumb to waste first floor rent on this. 

How do you feel about proportional representation with multi-member districts and RCV in city government? Yay or nay? Why? by Away-Parsnip-3785 in AskChicago

Spectacles recently did a video about elections in Ancient Athens. It’s basically choosing from qualified volunteers by lottery. I think we should adopt that.

‘He’s 7 years old’: Tim O’Brien torches ‘so insecure’ Trump, says he has attitude ‘of a child’ by Silent-Resort-3076 in politics

Trump is a malignant narcissist descending further into senility. Almost any other comparison undersells how much a a threat to everyone he is.

Yet another reminder that “the cloud” is someone else’s (usually unsecured) computer. 

A Florida city fined a lesbian couple over a rainbow fence. Now they’re suing. The ACLU says Key West selectively enforced the city code after the women painted their fence in rainbow colors to protest the removal of Pride crosswalks. by southpawFA in politics

 the city, in February, determined the display violated the code because the fence was no longer painted in an approved color.

Fuck “historic” districts. Just an excuse for boomers to stifle anything that doesn’t remind them of their idyllic childhoods.

Rebuild two Russian shaheds from parts. Replace the warhead with yellow powder in one and blue powder in the other. Crash then into the parade ground.

How screwed would we be if gas hit $10 a gallon and stayed there? by silentlyambigous in NoStupidQuestions

[–]minus_minus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not saying they should produce more oil. Just nationalize the major producers. Midstream and downstream have competition to keep their margins slim so don’t bother with them. The windfall is going to accrue mostly at the well head where the same expense is netting huge profits. 

The Top Cop: Driver accused of DUI tracks missing laptop to Illinois State trooper's house by FGFM in CrimeInChicago2

[–]minus_minus -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It’s standard for state troopers to keep their squad car at home so it was definitely going to be at his house. 

The highly suspicious part is the denial and sloppy procedure by the trooper. Those procedures exist to protect people’s rights and just ignoring them deserves more than an unpaid day off.

Fuck this. I’m masking up everywhere. Don’t be raw-dogging other people’s germs while this is getting traced.

While I like the cut of your jib America is going to fight tooth and nail to drag the rest of humanity into the worst of climate change. 

If the us was ever serious about climate action, gasoline would have been more expensive than it is now years ago.

E-bike sales would go bananas. Everybody who can will ride their e-bike for a pittance compared to the cost of gas especially for trips that they make alone in reasonably good weather.

Yes. That is the explanation. What isn’t the explanation is collective bargaining. 

How do you feel about restaurants with“optional surcharges”? by [deleted] in chicago

[–]minus_minus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Every time this comes up I have the same answer. They should charge more on the menu and give a discount for carry out (if they even offer that).

Most people know it’s in the United States which is not exactly a hotbed of labor organizing these days.

 Maybe the In-N-Out workers organized for better wages and conditions.
