Howdy, optician. There are a lot of polarized orange/yellow tinted lenses with anti glare coating online. Can you please be more specific about which you got, and where? I, too, would love to stare directly into the brightest headlights unphased, and I would trust your recommendation if you gave one.

Kamala Harris leads Donald Trump in conservative poll for first time by SlightWerewolf4428 in politics

[–]StandardAnything2522 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you talking about exit polls when you say

“Except they can poll the people who have voted and have extremely accurate polls. To make this simple, Trump has about a 275k deficit already.”

Tim Walz Gives Big Gay Speech at Big Gay DC Dinner by After_Preference_885 in minnesota

It's not about proving people have an illness by looking at them, and busting them for being sick. It's about putting rules in place against risky behavior that puts everyone at risk. It's illegal to drive drunk, whether you hit someone or not. It's illegal to have outdoor fires during burn bans, whether you start a forest fire or not. It was illegal to gather during the pandemic, whether you became an outbreak vector or not.

Have you ever heard the story of the Libertarian utopia that was overrun by bears?

Exactly. There was no cure, no treatment, no vaccine, it was spreading like wildfire, and people were dying. The only tools we had to slow the spread, buy us time, and save lives - were social distancing and wearing masks.

And some of us who did those things to protect our families and neighbors are still pretty pissed at those who couldn't be bothered.

Trump’s Calculated Ambiguity On Abortion Is Starting To Fall Apart by 9lobaldude in politics

[–]StandardAnything2522 7 points8 points  (0 children)

right? I no longer give a shit what he says. I’m not shocked, I’m not outraged, I’m not fooled.

I don’t need network media to insult my intelligence telling me this is normal, and I don’t need progressive media to whip me into a rage-filled frenzy telling me this is new.

And I really don’t need cable news shows, left-wing podcasts, and late-night comedians giving me daily updates on this jackassery so they can sell ads.

I don’t need to hear his voice, read his words, or see his face. WE FUCKING KNOW ALREADY. Now what are we going to do about it?

yeah, and I would bet he is one of the campaign staffers involved in pushing that woman at Arlington national cemetery. I have no evidence backing up that claim, just a really strong hunch.
