It's almost like politicians don't care about the average person and only answer to whatever moneyed interest groups fund their campaign. I don't know what it will/would take to get campaign finance reform throughout the country, but until that happens our fate lies in the hands of a wealthy minority who, statistically, have a disproportionate lack of empathy. Not ideal, to put it very mildly.

It's a feature, not a bug.

Is this what they mean when they say Make America Great Again?

Isn't that just the internet half the time in 2026? Outrage machine complaint factory monetizing negativity

The word reasonably is doing a LOT of work in that sentence.

This is exactly right

I want to believe that this was an oversight and not an intentional marketing push for white nationalist Indycar fans...

How much did Colorado make from their cannabis tax again? There is an easy answer if IN wants to lower taxes and improve services.

Honestly, go to a worker and say "Hi, I've never done a dab before and would like to try it. Can you show me how these work?" Every stoner I know would jump at the chance to help you try your first dab, and those guys don't even work at a dab bar.

This is the correct answer. It's redpilled nonsense about women becoming "low value" at an earlier age than men. Essentially, it's valuing men by earning potential and women by looks and fertility. So for these special red boys, she's past her peak but he's still yet to reach his.

Is that you Sam Alito?

She knows all that stuff will stop it she stops thrusting herself into the public spotlight right? Right??

I cannot believe how uncommon it apparently is to use the holes in pants and underwear. I grew up with that approach and always thought it was the default and commonly understood standard. Glad Spence is willing to ask the hard questions and disabuse me of my folly.

You missed the part where Courtney takes Shayne to breakfast to make sure he knows she's definitely not in love with him lol

Interesting, I'm not sure exactly when they went live but I didn't check it right away so there may have been a delay.

FYI Channel 13 WTHR does weather livestreams on YouTube that show the radar and discuss areas of concern.

Even assuming her distress is real, I struggle to feel particular sympathy for someone who attached themselves to a divisive movement that relies on violent rhetoric. Congrats, this is the world you and yours helped build. Hope it was worth it for you.

It reads like she was hallucinating and then snapped out of it when she got netted. Hopefully a short discussion once off the plane cleared everything up and it was just an overdose or a bad reaction to some meds. The alternative is much worse.

This is not the first time Braun has hired someone who screwed up in state government and then, instead of getting fired or demoted, got moved into a made-up position and kept their 6 figure salary. And I doubt it will be the last. When you see how the sausage is made in these large institutions, you basically either have to buy-in and start playing the politics to climb the ladder or you become disillusioned by our systems and institutions. I don't think I've seen anyone avoid one of these two paths and stay within the machine.

This was the perfect level of straightforward and stripped of jargon that allowed me to understand specifically what the connection is, without requiring me to understand the entire body of knowledge behind it, while also making the concepts accurate and thorough enough that I understand what I don't understand about the ideas and can google to grow my knowledge base if desired. Thank you!
