But when the ones we oppose, the ones who are carrying out the war of genocide, and the ones who stand to directly benefit are absolutely enamored with a decision, it can give pause to those of us sitting in our ivory tower armchairs as to the impact of our decision to those who face the consequences more directly.
BAH GAWD IT’S UNIVERSES BEYOND WITH A STEEL CHAIR.
for anyone confused, the company behind magic recently pledged to have sets from all sorts of IP in all competitive formats.
Your legolas can shoot down an Optimus prime, only to be replaced by a wolverine.
Imo anyone considering a Tesla won’t really care about the price and quality, for the reasons you describe. They’re there for the brand.
Apparently Tesla’s on board with this. Their thinking, which I think is correct, is that the rebate benefits other manufacturers more since Tesla is much more established as an EV brand.
Idk what the exact definition of a full lock in is, but if you have to break a window to get someone out I’d think it still qualifies since the locks were all engaged.
Time to justify it by giving your nephew a punch card to YOUR climbing wall!
An intergalactic golf course where you hit the ball through the Stargate.
EDIT: ON THE OTHER STARGATE THERES A MECHANICAL IRIS THAT OPENS AND CLOSES IN CADENCE LIKE AT MINI GOLF
Ah, the roy videogame from Rick and Morty
Do you have any rock climbing gyms near you? Could get a punch card to one.
Terry Pratchett posited that the shortest measurable amount of time is the New York second - the time between the traffic light turning green and the car behind you honking.
It’s taken a while for me to get to the point where I’ll write a comment, and think “do I really want to kick this potential hornets nest?” And delete the comment.
I find myself having a much better time hanging out and interacting with the folks in the asklemmy communities versus those in political threads.
Important question: sorbet or ice cream/gelato?
It’s a fairly expensive treat, but Jenny’s makes a dairy free pint that’s coffee sorbet mixed with delightful coconut cream.
The coffee sorbet section is very bright and tangy, unlike any coffee gelato or ice cream I’ve ever had before. It juxtaposes really well with the creaminess of the coconut cream.
Usually I work on a pint over the course of weeks, having a few spoonfuls at a time. I demolished this within two days haha.
If someone puts my cast iron in the dishwasher the cast iron will still outlive them
Fairly big. Main issue is the house is really old so there’s a good amount of extra stuff that I’m opting to get. I think I got quotes as low as 28k from some companies, so the rivian would be 3 of those haha.
I am a lightweight, it’s true.
And darn, it doesn’t sound like what’s driving your experience.
Are you Asian by chance, or otherwise have Alcohol flush reaction ?
It wasn’t until my 30s that I realized that most other folks don’t get a headache from drinking alcohol, feel their heart pounding, want to throw up, etc.
These days I just go with a non-alcoholic beer, I particularly like the ones by athletic brewing.
EDIT: removed a block of text that took all too long to type out because I’m not going to spend more time further arguing the interpretation of someone’s comment as if it were religious script.
Quite frankly it hardly matters. You asked for proof of folks politically engaged yet not voting, I shared what I thought constitutes proof. You believe it doesn’t qualify, but other folks reading this can draw their own conclusions.
Thanks for keeping the conversation civil - have a good one!
If you’re a wage earner in this country, your life does not change in any significant way based on who we elect, so why skip a badly needed day’s pay to vote? There’s just no point.
You’ll notice that’s different from
If you’re a wage earner in this country and you think your life does not change in any significant way based on who we elect, so why skip a badly needed day’s pay to vote? There’s just no point.
The former is an assertion that all wage earners lives aren’t affected by voting therefore they shouldn’t bother voting. IF you’re a wage earner THEN there’s no point in voting".
The latter is understanding a scenario from a potential perspective of a wage earner who doesn’t see change being discouraged.
Like you said in your own post,
someone who thinks both party’s won’t help
That said I am very concerned with the influence he undoubtedly will have with our space asset acquisition policies.
