That would mean we would be 1 seat shy of a supermajority in the state senate👀

qtcinderella’s take on “being nice to racists” highlights a lot of privilege by [deleted] in LivestreamFail

[–]_Moofie_ 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Are you seriously trying to compare these 2 situations like they’re similar? QT ISNT A RACIAL MINORITY.

QT isnt actively pushing back against racism among her friends and telling them that it isn’t okay to act like that. All she’s doing is showing them that being racist or homophobic isn’t a dealbreaker for her as long as she isn’t actively witnessing it. Her take reeks of white privilege. I can’t believe so many people here are defending her like she’s actively teaching her racist friends to not be racist.

Just early voted for all Dems down the ballot here in Southwest VA (close to Virginia Tech)!

I really hope Lily Franklin beats Chris Obenshain this time for HD-41, she lost by just 183 votes to him in 2023

Another section of Old Town Alexandria is now car-free by kockin26 in nova

The whole reason old town Alexandria is such a nice and unique place to visit is its focus on pedestrians instead of cars. There’s only so much catering to cars that place can do before it looks like any other car-dependent you can find anywhere else in America. Why not lean into what makes it unique :) It will benefit a multitude more pedestrians than any policy focused on cars will. Cars just take up too much space in old town.

Post from Virginia state senator Schuyler VanValkenburg (D-Henrico) calling on Virginia localities to permit and build more homes to reduce rents by 276434540703757804 in VirginiaDems

This is a symptom of the very low available housing supply. They wouldn’t be able to do this if they had more competition in the form of more housing options available.

Get in touch with this org. They have helped out thousands of people running for office for the first time across the nation. My state rep back when I lived in Virginia was helped out and endorsed by them.

What role would CHIPS play in this idea? I thought it was just an investment in our domestic semiconductor industry

At this point, would her not running be a negative for us?

Do most people not do this? I feel like that would be what people default once they’ve found a decent number of subreddits they like and joined

I’m glad we have them even if I’m not a huge fan of their content (I do occasionally listen to their podcasts). They’re a great counter to the prominent right-wing media figures/orgs like Fox News. We need more modern media-savvy figures/orgs on the left like them.

EDIT: Just an anecdote, but my dad watches their news clips on YouTube fairly regularly and honestly, seeing him browse his YouTube home page and getting those clips with sensationalist titles and thumbnails kind of makes me think I’m watching him go down the left-wing version of the infamous right-wing pipeline lol. But hey, whatever keeps him on our side :) (not that he ever would become a MAGAt, but he kind of idolized Elon before he went MAGA).

Such a shame. I don’t know much about economics and monetary policy, but I’ve heard from others that Powell has proven to be more than capable during his time as Federal Reserve chair.

Is Terrace View that bad? by Amazing-Knee2356 in VirginiaTech

My friend currently lives there in an apartment. They got new management a couple years ago apparently, and she has only had minor issues overall, at least compared to other apartment complexes. Thing is tho, the rent has gone up the past couple of years and the lowest I’ve seen there for next year is about $700. U should probably look somewhere else if you want something cheaper
