I’m thinking its less to create drama, and more to be like “So he doesn’t have a mandate then, to do all this bad shit he wants to do.”

Its no longer being billed as “Landslide victory! Americans clearly want bigotry!”

Fuck, I know what I’m watching tonight after work!

And they claim that they “don’t hate women they just love babies! <3 <3”

I am disgusted, but not surprised.

I just really don’t know how the mandatory training sessions doesn’t solve the problem for everyone.

People who are ACTUALLY dedicated to raising these dogs will still get them. Those who would end up as shitty owners won’t bother with the hassle.

Dogs get a better owner; owners get a better dog. Win-win all around.

I grew up with Rottweilers, which were the “pitbulls” of the 90s. I have had 2 Dobermans, one sleeping next to me right now, and they were the “pitbulls” of the 80s.

I fail to see how extermination is the answer when we have other methods available.

They think that they’re making a clever point. Of course larger dogs are inherently more dangerous than tiny dogs. No one is disputing that.

But to advocate for the complete wiping out of an entire breed versus mandatory training classes for owners is an insane answer.

Make “dangerous breeds” more difficult to get, sure. I agree with that. But I can NOT with the “wipe out all pitbull/rotties/dobermans/GSDs/etc”

That’s why I said “nearly half” bruh. We have 50 states in the US and a few territories.

And yes, he didn’t pardon enough people. I will agree with you on that all day. But how many cannabis users did Trump or even Obama pardon from their sentences?

He’s making an attempt despite having a gridlock Congress, and I do commend him for that. That’s why I said “nearly half” bruh. We have 50 states in the US and a few territories.

Edit: I will concede federal minimum wage remaining stagnant at $7.25 does suck though. Biden can’t force one state to raise minimum wage over another. You got me there, that was a state-loving-their-constituents thing, not a Biden thing.

Is this the same Biden that just pardoned a bunch of cannabis users from serving their sentences?

And the same Biden who on 1 Jan 24, nearly half the US states will have their federal min wage raised?

Look, there’s plenty to criticize Biden for, mostly ALL of his Middle East actions (not just Gaza-Israel), but let’s not pretend he’s all bad and hasn’t tried to help his own people domestically.

What an awful, legit gut-wrenching moment to be able to read and have an imagination.

Ooohhh have you about buying a band and wearing it on a chain around your neck instead? I know people who work with machinery do that to avoid their rings getting caught on the equipment.

I’ve always thought it was kind of sweet because now your ring hangs close to your heart everyday!

Nikki Haley scares the ever loving shit out of me for this reason. Right now she’s saying all the right things about “finding a consensus” on topics like abortion.

Meanwhile while a legislator in S.C., she backed quite a few very strict abortion ban bills. One of them was even a “no exception” policy.

But, right now she “appears moderate” to “moderates”, and the Republican party gets to point at her and be like “Of course we don’t hate women! We voted for one!”

Ugh…her name gives me a nasty feeling in the pit of my stomach.

Ugh yes. I canceled my Amazon Prime like 5 years ago, and swore off Amazon completely until they started streaming Vox Machina. Sucks that’s the service Critical Role went with, but it is what it is.

I should check out Tales from the Loop too… and cancel AppleTV now that Ted Lasso is over.

I agree. 100%. Like YES, Israel is being maximum scum by retaliating with excessive force. We get it, they have all the “1st world countries” funding them. They keep murdering people with a crazy multiplier compared to Palestine.

But to pretend that Hamas is not at all culpable or disgusting for their OWN actions is not it.

Samsies on the timeline. It was 2020, I was deployed to the desert, and I was taking classes for a Masters Degree in Public Health.

I could NOT mentally deal with all the Covid misinformation flying around, and my family’s love of Trump. But I for some reason also couldn’t stop myself from checking FB constantly.

So, I deleted it, and the whole 30 days wait time was hella annoying because I had to stop myself from logging in. But when it was finally gone, I felt SUCH an immense relief.

From your fucking lips to God’s ears PLEASE!

Yeah. Military member with a uterus stationed in TexAss here. We’re tracking how precarious the situation and how much Tuberville and supporters are fucksticks.

I would highly, highly recommend that anyone with a uterus who values their bodily autonomy heavily reconsider joining the military at this point. I’m grateful for the steps that the DoD is taking for us. I’m grateful that the abortion provisions that we do have were protected in the latest military package. However, I’m all too aware of how flimsy it all is for us.

But not just us serving. It’s flimsy for EVERYONE with a uterus. I hope people in blue states realize when they cast their vote that just because they are where they are won’t protect them if Republicans enact a nationwide ban. I hope that they remember/consider the young girls/women in red states who aren’t allowed to have birth control (religious zealotry), or who were raped, or fuck it, they just had sex because that’s what people do, and they don’t have the means to travel away for an abortion. I really, really hope that they’re remembered.

I also hope that they consider that a Republican man will NEVER view a woman as an equal.

More than 50% of white women voted for Trump? Do you have a source for this?!

I’m genuinely asking here, because that’s gross as fuck if true. I’m a white woman. I couldn’t imagine voting for that POS, however, my mother is suuuuuuper into the “Bible” so I know she did. My parents are unfortunately super fans of his. I didn’t think that there were that many like her though.

Edit: I was so appalled I looked myself. I did find a bunch of stuff supporting it like truthout andthe guardian, which is absolutely fucking infuriating to me.

I did see that when it came to women with college, more did vote for Clinton than Trump, but it wasn’t enough to outweigh when combined with those who lacked a college education.

FFS. This stat actually massively upsets me.

I love this potential future as well. Texas is saved and Abbott and Friends end up rotting in prison where they belong.

I’d be here for it

I doubt the DoD would just let those assets remain in Texas if the state chooses to secede. They’d likely take it all back, and position it strategically to protect against a now hostile foreign nation.

… at least, that’s what I’m hoping for as a piece of “military property”.

Please, JFC, don’t leave us here!

Oh…my God…what a terrible fucking moment to be literate 😂

Yeah, I saw the connection you made, and then the confusion from the original poster, and I was like “Oop. Some conclusions were jumped to here!”

It wasn’t an illogical leap at all, but Texas-New Mexico border towns are already trying to claim that their towns are “Fetal Sanctuary Towns”. They want to prosecute women for driving on their roads to seek abortive care in New Mexico. So the last thing we need is people like that assuming that every woman driving anywhere is doing so just for an abortion.

Ugh. This state blows.
