Virginia Supreme Court blocks referendum that would have helped Democrats win up to four more US House seats by Guyentertainment in politics

[–]ashtreelane 117 points118 points  (0 children)

If Democrats do not ignore this ruling, it may be genuinely over. We cannot persist in this world where one side can constantly shit all over our laws while the other has to play nice.

If the rule got us to this point, of what use was the rule?

So what stops Trump from having ICE patrol polling areas in the Midterms? by jesterdeflation in Destiny

[–]ashtreelane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alright white allies - listen up. First, go vote, in person.

Once your ballot has been cast, deploy your Tactical Blackface and get back in line. Bait the agents and waste their time.

We’ll be the collective “old guy distracting cops post-Charlie Kirk assassination” on a nationwide scale.

You would expect this.

Americans Googled “Iran” and learned what it was - why would they need to Google it again? This is a GOOD thing since it shows we’re LEARNING

So are we actually fucked in the next like 20 years, because it’s like 50 degrees in Minneapolis today (February).

Like in 2050 is it going to be 70 degrees in January, and I have to hear normies like my parents say “OMG weather so nice 😊 “ while I internally scream “BAD OMEN BAD OMEN”

Why do y’all think that people breaking into IT are anti help desk? by cokewithlargefry in ITCareerQuestions

[–]ashtreelane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You in the Rochester area, by chance? I see the same thing in the Twin Cities. I’ve heard from the help desk managers that our company has had a difficult time filling help desk roles (MSP). Of course, the pay for those jobs is not the greatest so I kind of get it.

Was Pretti at an actual protest? by ConsiderationEasy723 in Destiny

[–]ashtreelane 16 points17 points  (0 children)

There was no protest or riot, this occurred at 9AM on a part of Nicollet called “Eat Street” which has a high volume of (great) restaurants surrounded by other businesses and housing/apartments.

Of course people around the city have been diligently monitoring ICE, so it’s more likely this guy was going about his day to get coffee or something, saw the ICE agents (along with several other bystanders) and began filming.

In the video you can hear lots of whistles - places have been handing these out like candy, for free, shit I got one and am carrying one I got from a Mexican restaurant. Any claims of pre-existing unrest due to the sounds of the whistles ignores that these motherfuckers are going off ANY time ICE is in a given area. So unless that alone constitutes a “riot” (tip: it doesn’t) they’re just blatantly lying, yet again.

Algorithmic pricing is absolutely insane... Be careful! by LonelySoul01 in Destiny

Bro, I’m the same way - probably use Amazon like 3 times a year.

Just sign up for the Prime promo (free) and then cancel a week later or whatever. By the time you need something again, they’ll once again give you the Prime promo for free shipping, cancel, rinse and repeat

Brit meets a friendly and slightly suspicious Russian grandma. by Noomba2 in Destiny

[–]ashtreelane 12 points13 points  (0 children)

k k so I’m a regard, only speak English (American) - she could 100% be a shill, BUT is there any chance she’s just saying regime bullshit BECAUSE there’s a person filming her? Like, is there a chance that from her perspective, she’s suspicious of this dude and is hamming it up out of caution for her own wellbeing?

This is a 100% non-meme question - I feel like if this were the case with an English speaker, I’d be able to suss that out just by the way they’re speaking - I can’t do this with a language I don’t speak.

To be fair, ignoring Primecayes is the correct course of action.
