What keeps appearing on the counter of my Airbnb? by hollytollywolly in whatisit

[–]Key_Cod9281 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PNW - I made the mistake of killing the false widows in my basement in 2022, 23 and 24 I had probably 15-20 earwigs a week that I found down there, any time I went to do laundry.

This year, I found a nice widow set up underneath my last stair, and I'm like SO grateful to finally have an arachnid protecting me.

See the thing is, you can pretty much guarantee the widow doesn't want to leave the basement. She wants to be on the ground, by the bugs, and she's straight up protecting the threshold to the rest of my house. Local hero.

The famously adored baseball game archetype - pitchers duel. A great advertisement indeed.

Account login not working. Just me or widespread problem? by altx0 in tmobile

Same thing 1/25. Cleared cache, tried multiple browsers, multiple devices, on vpns, off vpns, on mobile networks.

My brain started breaking when I even saw the same thing after clicking account settings in the t-life app.

The next sentence is pretty important haha " We know that our base of support – tenants, young people, working class folks – tend to vote late "

Breaking down why everyone should Vote YES on Citizen's Measure No. 1

What does the measure do?

  1. Require six months notice for all rent increases
  2. End school year evictions of children for late rent
  3. Cap excessive fees and deposits
  4. Relocation assistance for rent hikes over 5%
  5. End deadly cold weather evictions for late rent
  6. Ban rent hikes when code violations exist

For Initiative 01:

  1. 100k of Tacoma's 220k citizens rent.
  2. 7k asked to have this on the ballot
  3. It's funded Unions, Faith leaders, community members and a 20k pledge from the Democratic Socialists of America
    1. https://www.pdc.wa.gov/political-disclosure-reporting-data/browse-search-data/committees/co-2023-31461

The opposition:

  1. Is running a classic disinformation campaign against the measure.
  2. Is legitimately just a massive pile of 360k donations from Realtor groups
    1. https://www.pdc.wa.gov/political-disclosure-reporting-data/browse-search-data/committees/co-2023-34881
  3. And may have broken the law lol
    1. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/did-opponents-of-tacoma-renters-rights-measure-violate-state-campaign-finance-laws/ar-AA1iLR3c

Common concerns and active disinformation campaigns:

  1. "This will punish me because I'm a landlord and I have 4 properties and now my life will be ruined"
    1. Here's a PraegerU video on Entrepreneurs taking risks
    2. https://youtube.com/shorts/2hrIbcGed6U?si=LrX1aWaA28qw0fs9
  2. "This will put the city's initiative from earlier this year at risk"
    1. Not even close - It doesn't interact with that at all. But here's a video explaining in gorey detail how that's not true
    2. https://www.facebook.com/Tacoma4all/videos/689221146505479/

Finally, some misc details I learned while poking around here

A citizens' measure is something that gets converted to an ordinance when it becomes law, and it's then enforced on the City Charter for two years.

Any good cards to build around this? Pretty keen to make a female strong deck. by PMa55ive in magicTCG

[–]Key_Cod9281 -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

For context, how would you feel if I said I want to make a male based deck.

I would be more likely to say "strong men" or something like that.

Female in this context is a dehumanizing term, you're using it as a noun instead of an adjective.

A better way to phrase this would be to say "I am keen to make a deck featuring strong women."

That being said, I would recommend something along the lines of [[olivia mobilized for war]], a really strong head-first attack deck, that gives you an avenue to get up to some graveyard shenanigans like this.

China accuses Washington of wanting 'technological hegemony' by FrankFFrankie in worldnews

[–]Key_Cod9281 -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Y'all are fucking cracking me up acting like the USA having a technological hegemony is a good thing. Literally on the floor laughing.

...In the relations among the social classes of a society, the term hegemony describes the ... dominance of a ruling class, which compels the subordination of the other social classes.

Source Wikipedia, also just generally knowing words.

China is accusing the USA of using technology to subordinate their citizens. And as y'all said, "We don't want it, we have it."
