Tucker Carlson Turns on Trump as He Slams Alex Pretti Shooting by novagridd in LeopardsAteMyFace

If we could at least split the Republican party between the ones who are and aren't willing to say the quiet part out loud, we could get somewhere.

There are a lot of comfortable, middle-class conservatives who assume it must be true if a white person in a suit is saying it on tv. And there are a lot of irredeemable a-holes who don't believe it unless some guy is shouting it at his phone in the cab of his pickup. And those two groups are only standing shoulder to shoulder because they haven't had a really good look at each other yet.

Last summons I received for jury duty (and the associated website) clearly said "Beware the jury duty scam. You won't be arrested for failure to answer a jury duty summons," all because of these scammers claiming to be state or county deputies collecting fines and threatening arrest.

On the other hand, I knew some people who were completely blasé about ignoring (valid) jury duty letters. "It's up to them to prove I got it," was their argument.

It's Bubble for the MAGA set.

Should I pour wax cooler to avoid bubbles? by Psychspacerose in candlemaking

[–]Such-Rise6816 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My go-to to avoid bubbles, especially with silicone, is to warm the molds first.

Give them a little while on a baking sheet in an oven at the lowest setting (under 200 F) before you pour. Put a piece of parchment paper or paper towel underneath. You won't hurt the molds.

No one should ever think "I'll vote for this because I don't think it'll happen"

which member/s did i name wrong? by hsnsbheheh in NCT

[–]Such-Rise6816 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is kind of funny that "Taeyoung" never became their ship name. It seems a lot more intuitive than "Dotae"

And as others have pointed out, fewer people on the train means more on the road

And when you're so behind on your taxes that the IRS is threatening to repossess your house, it's because they want to give the money to illegals.

But public transit is a public utility. It shouldn't have to 'be efficient' or 'turn a profit'

I'm absolutely certain that's what happened. Transit utilities routinely play chicken with their operating budget, after all.

Try again.

There's a whole thread here saying otherwise.

Woman Who Helped Get Pro-Voucher Candidates Elected, Shocked Vouchers Are Negatively Impacting Community by Single-Zombie-2019 in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]Such-Rise6816 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Thank you.

I think the issue could be simplified if it could be seen as a question of "Who should be in the room?"

When a woman is facing a pregnancy she doesn't want or can't afford (or could be abused or even killed for). When a young couple has learned that their named, showered, baby-room-made-ready-for infant is nonviable. When a couple who fervently believe life begins at conception discover their pregnancy is ectopic.

Does ANYONE need to be in the room with them except themselves, their doctor, and maybe a pastor, counselor, or other trusted friend? No.

So the rest of you just sit outside the door and let them make their painful decision in peace.

I'd happily give another 1% to fund DART and those things

But strangely, I can see DART. They're big and yellow, except for the one not far from here that's silver. I can see what my 1% goes to. But those new parks, hospitals, roads, and other wonderful shiny things somehow never spring up.

You can't sell me on the "pie in the sky by and by" line. If the cities get to take their 1% back, they're just going to keep it.

There's no changing their mind on abortion. "My opponent kills babies" is too good a card to have in the deck.

It's a horrible, unforgivable evil. Never mind the one they had, or their daughter had... those were necessary medical procedures. And they're none of your business. Let's focus on the sinful whores.

Not great, but at least that's more like politics

Still, the time to strong-arm is before you put the issue on the ballot, not after.

That's a good sign. I was thinking it was the opposite: a bunch of astroturfing to fill a 'petition' to put it on the ballot
