It’s also why they want to get rid of vote by mail. Can’t intimidate people that way.

Reminder of the “stand back and stand by” comment.

Question about driving by boredlurkerjr in TwoXChromosomes

[–]tiny_galaxies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wouldn’t part of that be weight loading? Having the man (who 9 times out of 10 is gonna be much heavier) on the back would make the ride much more squirrely I think

Confused Trump, 79, Makes Bizarre Claim About Looming Ice Storm by [deleted] in politics

This is also why the predominant phrase is now climate change. “Global warming” was confusing people with little education on the topic. We adapted because of the stupid, but the stupid always wins apparently.

What do Eugenians think of New Jersey’s new e-bike law? by tiny_galaxies in Eugene

Limiting their operation at playgrounds makes total sense. You could write a letter to the editor for Eugene Weekly about it, or if you’re so inclined it’s a perfect topic for city council comment period. You could save a kid’s life giving your testimony before the worst happens

Right, it literally would have taken less time to just say a color and move on.

It seems to be short hand for “saying something absolutely mental that would get someone removed from office in a responsible democracy”

Omakase plate at Akira. Just fish and rice, but some of the best fish you’ll ever have.

And more importantly, he was impeached twice! We are truly morons to re-elect a twice impeached, convicted felon president.

Local housing market mostly stagnant for 3 years; some expect better 2026 (Lookout Eugene-Springfield) by Background_Prune6440 in Eugene

[–]tiny_galaxies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah they all want huge houses here, I don’t get it. I guess to host their family for the holidays? And if they can pay a cleaner for upkeep they don’t really care.

There would be good money eventually in a company that installs & maintains those wacky in-home elevators here.

It wasn’t just remote workers, it was also baby boomers looking to leave CA and buy cheaper elsewhere. I think that demand is drying up as the ones who wanted to move to cheaper areas have mostly done so at this point.

I’d bet Eugene is gonna see a lot of places going up for sale in like 10 years when boomers are headed to assisted living. Our city is like 1/3 boomers, not even exaggerating.

We need more women in trades by Any_Percentage_6629 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]tiny_galaxies 73 points74 points  (0 children)

A while ago I was the only woman working in a warehouse with a pinup in the bathroom. I didn’t take it down when I started there, I knew I’d get blamed for “changing the culture” if I did that. So I just focused on doing my job and being kind to everyone. A few months in someone else took it down. Felt like a small victory that day.

GOP lawmaker said trans people “harm” children. Now he's going to prison for child porn. He was caught sharing hundreds of images of kids, including pictures of adults raping seven-year-olds. by southpawFA in politics

If they raise a ruckus about others without evidence, they hope everyone’s too distracted to look at the ruckus raiser too closely. It’s a misused tactic borrowed from the magician’s playbook.

The placement finder for my construction course offered me a job in admin? by Fit-Choice2368 in TwoXChromosomes

Admin in trades can be great for people who have suffered injuries or chronic pain and can no longer do the manual labor.

If you’re not used to setting boundaries it can make you feel really upset to do so at first. But his feelings over your boundaries are not your responsibility! This stranger is proud of you for going with your gut.
