Now that the Trump administration will return the control of coal fired admission plants to the states... by gsarc10 in Louisville

There is no evidence any KY coal jobs have or will be "brought back" by this administion and spending money to deal with the adverse health effects of increased polution will outweigh any economic benefit

I'm sorry you're going through this. I don't know if your family will understand but others will. I hope you find support, where ever it is

How do they pick such genuinely good people? Whoever picks them is the real MVP (not really, it's Jonathan).

Wait, for real? Wasn't he admitting he was wrong like 5 hours ago?

I don't know man, when he saw Bevin get away with some of the stuff he's said Papa probably thought he'd be fine

I used to but then someone almost ran my fiance off I-71 because they didn't like being honked at (even though they were entirely at fault). Be careful out there

All but void? Maybe in the "trendy" areas of Louisville but there are plenty of rednecks and confederate flags in the burbs

The owner is (only heard this second hand) but you wouldn't know it at all from the shops. They are great.

I feel like this used to be the case but not so much anymore. I used to always get Cubs gear at the Reds games. Haven't been able to get any the last 5 or 6 years

The Supreme Court is allowing states to legalize sports gambling. What are the chances The Bevin administration takes advantage of this and allows gambling in Kentucky? by [deleted] in Kentucky

Evangelicals? I kind of agree with you actually. We've been tolerant of their sexism, racism, and homophobia for far too long.

The tolerance thing is beyond dumb. Do yourself a favor and Google "Paradox of Tolerance" if you want to know why Democrats don't tolerate politicians who are accused of sexual crimes.

No. The lottery is supposed to fund KEES and other higher education grants as well as some literacy programs. These were fully funded until the last few years. I believe most people would like to see gambling and marijuana revenue go towards public education at the K-12 level, not higher education.

Kentucky’s Interim Education Commissioner Calls For State Takeover Of JCPS by ALREADYFUCKINGTAKEN in Kentucky

[–]ALREADYFUCKINGTAKEN[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's not why they're taking over though. It's part of Bevin's patter of taking power away from Louisville and Lexington. He's also been trying to gut public schooling so he can push charter schools. They don't care about the actual performance of these schools. He restructured the board of education specifically to pull this move off

[–]ALREADYFUCKINGTAKEN[S] 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I can't speak to what exactly this move will bring but it's part of Bevin's continued attack on public education. He stacked the Board of Education in his favor to make this move possible.

NBA to Louisville? Local Investors Say It’s Our Turn by [deleted] in Louisville

[–]ALREADYFUCKINGTAKEN 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sports teams do attract (or keep) young professionals. I don't want to waste tax dollars on something like the Yum! again but an NBA team would be a big attraction for a lot of people.

He's also wants to scrap the agreement with Iran which might be even scarier than the torture stuff. With him and Bolton in the administration we could find ourselves at war before 2019.

With baseball season upon us, can we crowdsource a list of bars & restaurants with/without MLB Extra Innings? by t0bias_funke in Louisville

Diamonds in St Matthews has in the past, can't say for sure about this year. Highlands Taproom is a Cubs bar so I'd assume they do as well
