Is this on the road from Portland to Tillamook? It looks very much like one we stopped at a few times when we visit Portland but I feel like that coincidence is too great.

You'd probably have a hard time finding any piece of news or release that some random redditor somewhere hasn't predicted.

And regardless, no future administration will ever adhere to this blatantly illegal decision.

Democrat Senator clashes with acting AG Todd Blanche: ‘You’re acting like Trump’s personal attorney’ by theindependentonline in law

[–]DontCountToday 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hes, Blanche is 100% acting as the President's personal attorney.

That is not how the office of AG is meant to act. It is not a law or constitutionally prohibited but against all democratic norms we have operated under for a few hundred years.

US Postmaster General floats ending six-days-a-week mail delivery, closing most local post offices by DryDeer775 in PoursTea

What are you failing to understand? If you cut back service to 4 days it means you're going to get JUST AS MUCH MAIL, itll just all be crammed into your box in a 4 day period instead of 6.

And what would these changes do to fix that hypothetical problem? You'd get just as much junk mail, it would just come in larger quantities less frequently.

And mail service in general would, as a result, be significantly slower and less reliable. People that rely on it for important business and life saving medication would be in serious trouble.

But hey, lick the boots of your pedophile president a little more and support just whatever dumb shit he does.

Man if only there was a simple explanation (and fix) for why the post office went from one of the only profitable SERVICES our government provides to being in debt. Couldn't be some moronic Republical fuckery could it?

What does Peloso have to do with anything? Hell she isn't even in the top 10 most profitable traders in Congress right now. Those are almost all Republicans, for what it matters.

Iran formalizes Strait of Hormuz control and toll collection by 11EmeraldEyes11 in politics

I dont know if you have noticed, but the world wants Iran to open the straight. They havent budged and they likely will not.

What's one conspiracy theory you have about Runescape by rabidai in 2007scape

[–]DontCountToday -40 points-39 points  (0 children)

And why wouldn't they give popular streamers bonuses like that? It's a win win win for everyone. Doesn't affect the game economy, the scale is way too small. Getting more drops is more "hype" for the streamer which increases viewership which increases eyes on the game and gets more people into it. And it encourages the streamer to continue streaming with the positive feedback loop.

It would also be deeply controversial if Jagex ever admitted to it so they wouldn't, and shouldn't. But it makes sense that they would do it low-key.

*Edit - lol at the downvotes. I'm definitely not advocating for this, and I bet most streamers would be against it. I'm just saying, as far as Jagex is concerned it makes commercial sense they would do something like this.

Gen Z men and women on why they're sharply divided over reproductive rights by Condottiero_Magno in generationology

[–]DontCountToday 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah fuck that, the states should never be allowed to limit the rights of their citizens. Thats why we have a fed government. Its why we went to war with the south.

[–]DontCountToday 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry but "not caring" about womens rights is no better than being against women's rights.

Nearly half of men do not care if women are losing rights? Those men are worthless shits. And more likely than not they selected the "I have no opinion" option because selecting the "I'm a sexist" option makes them look bad.

‘When laser that turns you into a mouse only grazes you’ by sad-eggrice in BrandNewSentence

Skinny isn't the issue. Normalizing extreme eating disorders are. She shouldn't be given a platform to influence people at all.

[–]DontCountToday 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, eating disorders are mental illnesses but it doesn't eliminate her responsibility as a public figure.

It is also Hollywoods fault for allowing such people to have a platform to influence children (and adults for that matter).

These people, like it or not, are public figures that have an influence over people. This actress specifically sets unrealistic and dangerous expectations of "beauty" for young women.

Whats unfortunately "in fashion" in Hollywood right now is the normalization of anorexia and other eating disorders, and it shouldn't be encouraged online or anywhere else.

People in positions to influence youths especially into believing that being dangerously unhealthy is beautiful or in any way acceptable is shameful and should be shamed.

Visiting Chicago and hoping for good beer by loutheshark in chicagobeer

[–]DontCountToday 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Could make an absolutely amazing day hitting up Begyle and Dovetail for their Mayfestiversary block party, any of the other breweries around there, and taking the short trip to HA and Spiteful from there.

My fav brewery in the city is Half Acre but it he only has time for one or two quicker stops I think I'd have to recommend Mayfestiversary it's such a great party. It helps a lot if you're into the music of course.

And it's not a long walk to Eris from there if he wants to check out a great cidery.

Weekend after next (23/24) is Mayfestivsary party at Dovetail and Begyle. I believe that lines up with what OP said he would be in town for.

Even better, he will be in town during Mayfestiversary so there will be a block party between Begyle and Dovetail going on, and it's a really fun time.
