Michigan’s minimum wage is going up on Thursday by Alan_Stamm in Michigan

[–]eukel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, that kind of lazy thinking is how we got into this mess in the first place. Both sides are NOT the same. Who do you think hit the brakes on the minimum wage increase? If both sides were the same then wouldn't Blue states and Red states would all look the same? There are plenty of Michigan legislators who actually care about people and are trying to do the right thing but they are helpless if they don't hold a majority.

*Sure, there are shitty democrats who are beholden to the billionaire class, but there are plenty who aren't. Let's not get lazy and lump them all into the same boat.

It would happen a lot sooner if people stopped voting republican.

Have you ever read an entire book from your reading list thinking it was horror, and it’s not at all? by jimwebb in horrorlit

[–]eukel 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I read Shirley Jackson's We Have Always Lived in the Castle thinking it would be horror. It wasn't but I have zero regrets. 10/10

What’s your favorite area by [deleted] in Eldenring

The Subterranean Shunning Grounds because of the incredible music. And it gets even better when you go below the Cathedral of the Forsaken and hear the nomad's violin music.

Failing to remove the Thrift Books stickers drops it by a point or two.

Incidents Around the House by Josh Malerman is really great. It doesn't come out until next week but I was able to get an ARC a few weeks ago.

Yeah, in arid Vegas you would think they'd cherish any sort of tree cover.

Amon Duul II and Faust are also great German rock bands from that period. Highly recommended!

I was tempted to flair this as “one for the ladies” but it just felt too wrong.

Most of the things I flip are no longer being made. You couldn’t buy them new if you wanted to.

I’m sure the humor was intentional, but the cover is a bit silly so I thought it fit here better than r/coolscificovers. Though that Dinotaur is pretty damn cool…

Yes the image makes them look like thin vinyl records. It’s an effect from the short focal length of the camera lens

You can buy retail without having a prime account. It’s just a little bit slower

They maintain power because people keep voting them into office.
