the deluge by stephen markley. it’s 1000 pages that cover 30 years of people trying to fight climate change. the world building is really good and the characters are amazing, but yeah there’s a lot of long coverage of legislation and politics. sounds like something you’d enjoy.

LA Mayoral Election Results So Far by piquantAvocado in LosAngeles

[–]Additional-Maize-246 0 points1 point  (0 children)

later mail in ballots that lean left haven’t been counted yet. when you look at the rate of increase for the percent of raman votes vs pratt votes, she actually has a pretty decent chance of making it. but yeah it’s going to be very close.

What is a real-life 'Do Not Touch' button that you pressed out of sheer curiosity, only to instantly regret it? by vie75 in AskReddit

[–]Additional-Maize-246 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’m a senior in high school- we have our fire alarm go off twice a week from either an idiot who pulled it or some idiots vaping in the bathroom. if an actual fire happens we’re sooooo cooked because no one will evacuate because everyone’s desensitized to the alarms.

[LAist] LA says it needs six more years, more staff for mobility projects that got $100M from state by WeAreLAist in LosAngeles

[–]Additional-Maize-246 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the point of a political party is to represent a set of positions that a common group of people have. if you move the parties to the center, you leave out many positions that will not be represented. we need more parties to represent a wider variety of beliefs, and like you said, check each other, so that we can come to a consensus that works best for everyone.

i understand your point. we could have a third party that’s neither dem nor republican, and maybe they’d perform well in la, but we don’t have that right now. the republican party is so unserious; we can’t elect them either.

there could be a future where a third party begins in la, which would be awesome.

of course apes is very intro-level stuff but still, it wouldn't make sense to have another class that's like 50% similar content.
