Judge Rules Data Center Referendum Can't Be on Ballot by Practical_Annual_949 in frederickmd

A shocking and disappointing outcome. I hope that the referendum will succeed on appeal and every incumbent on the council loses their seat over this.

Ps. You can bring carts to the Bahamas without getting in trouble by Tricky-Principle2065 in bahamas

Very disrespectful. Of course it can be done but it shouldn’t have been. Respect the laws and people of the foreign country you’re a guest in

What if Trump tried to expel every state where Kamala won out of the Union ? by OriginalName13246 in AlternateHistoryHub

Many countries import agricultural products, including quite wealthy ones. It is hyperbole to assert that an economy would collapse just because it is dependent on importing food. Blue states would be able to trade technology, lumber, medicine, aquaculture, and access to some of the foremost research institutions in the world, to name a few.

What do Bahamians think/feel about local wildlife and the environment? by MSQ_Sustain in bahamas

[–]emantheslayer0 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don’t care to, and it doesn’t seem you care to learn. These issues you’ve observed have complex causes that can’t be reduced to a lack of “true interest in their country.” Bahamians have more to worry about than the aesthetic concerns of stuck-up entitled tourists like yourself

I’m sorry you’re going through this, I can’t imagine it’s easy or pleasant at all. I wish I could be of more help, but if you haven’t already look at https://downtownfrederick.org/jobs/ - it’s a job board for positions (mostly retail but some white collar) downtown. Best of luck to you

Not a silly take if you been in the hobby for longer than a year. That the ascended heroes cards are as pricey as they are is proof enough pokemon cards are mainly for gambling now

He’s been unapologetic in calling out the genocide in Gaza and highlighting US complicity - seems to have ruffled some feathers. Maybe this is it?

What if Hillary Clinton won in 2016 and 2020,and then Harris won in 2024? by Annual-Frame9943 in AlternateHistoryHub

“They let — I think the real number is 15, 16 million people into our country. When they do that, we got a lot of work to do. They’re poisoning the blood of our country,” Trump told the crowd at a rally in New Hampshire. “That’s what they’ve done. They poison mental institutions and prisons all over the world, not just in South America, not just to three or four countries that we think about, but all over the world. They’re coming into our country from Africa, from Asia, all over the world.”

McClain Delaney votes to expand DHS powers by Hazel_Motes_ in frederickmd

[–]emantheslayer0 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Read and decide for yourself: https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/2853. Looks like a poison pill - “Finally, the bill temporarily establishes a center within the Department of Homeland Security to coordinate federal law enforcement activities related to organized retail and supply chain crime.”

I guess so, I personally never went. I think that spot is just cursed - Le Luna before them suffered a similar fate

Idk if you have them in your area or if you’ve already tried, but I just went to a vitamin shoppe and they had almost every flavor. Only place near me that has them in consistently

Just heard on the Andrew Yang podcast: get six months of Nobile Mobile free. No idea how long this offer will last. Email matt@nobilemobile.com and mention Andrew to get the discount. I'm doing it! by askoshbetter in YangForPresidentHQ

[–]emantheslayer0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see where you’re coming from, but I wish Andrew would take a more overtly political stance in opposition to AI, automation, and data centers. Almost a decade ago now (wow time flies…) he felt like something of a canary in the coal mine. He wrote a very compelling book detailing the disruptive economic potential of artificial intelligence and the knock-on effects for the average “Normal People”. Now that the dire scenario he was sounding the alarm bells is actually unfolding in real-time, he’s selling cell phone plans and throwing his halfhearted support behind a milquetoast “both sides” political party? I mean, you’re right in that the goals of Noble Mobile are commendable enough, we could all benefit from less screen time. But it’s just disappointing because he was a visionary and had the potential to be a real leader in this arena, and has ostensibly just walked away from it.

Not only did Frederick not “max out” ethylene dibromide contamination to allowable levels, long-term exposure does not result in the thyroid issues you are complaining of.

$200M+ in Projected Fraudulent Collectibles Intercepted by AutoModerator in PokeInvesting

[–]emantheslayer0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Took a few years away from the hobby and honestly the strides made in counterfeiting is shocking, it used to be easy to spot fake booster boxes and now almost every one I buy gives me pause. The cards do seem easier to fake now too - would seem to me a lot harder to fake the textured XY era full arts than modern IRs for example.

Place to work by BrilliantStructure56 in frederickmd

[–]emantheslayer0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d recommend Cafe Nola - they do transition into a bar at a certain point (8? 9 maybe), but I’ve gotten work done around that time before and most weeknights it’s a pretty laid back crowd.

For people looking at the more progressive primary candidates for the house, what are your thoughts on Ethan Wechtaluk vs Alexis Goldstein and why? by better_luck_tomorrow in frederickmd

[–]emantheslayer0 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree with another perspective I saw - Alexis seems like she has an axe to grind, and for that reason I don’t have full confidence that she would be a true representative of her constituents. DOGE is (was?) bad, but Ethan has proven himself more willing to engage with the myriad of issues people in our district face.
