I mean, he’s right in one way, you certainly ought to be able to talk about who you are voting for without fear. Communication, debate, and choose for yourself. So really the far right are just reaping what they have sown, I don’t see how he can blame the ad.
Better to leave your phone at home (or better, in the pocket of someone who lives in your house and takes the same daily path as you do) if you are doing something that’s currently illegal. Or in any situation where you are doing something legal that the cops are likely to break up.
The juror going home thing is terrifying but I don’t think the government would be after you for fulfilling your civic duty.
We do bring our guy food, everyone in the neighborhood looks out for the homeless people who live in their little nooks in our neighborhood. No we don’t house them, and no we don’t want them rounded up. It’s fine, they live here. They could go get help from the city or county, they don’t. They don’t want to participate in the economy, aren’t cut out for it and yes of course there need to be more government programs to help. The government is us, isn’t it?
What the actual fuck? That is crazy. We lived through Reagan. And both Bushes. Why would any woman my age think Trump was anyone who would make a good president?

Justice delayed is justice denied.
I am so annoyed at Honda for discontinuing the Accord Sport 6 speed. I have one from about 10 years back and it is without question the best balance between efficiency, space, utility and fun. It is my “mom car” that can get the kids to school (now they even drive themselves, college daughter drops off high school kid on her way to school) and drives like a dream. I thought the Sport thing was just trim but apparently not, it handles better than my husband’s Mazda.
It’s not like I need a new one right now, or maybe even for ten more years. But God I miss being able to get manual shift at a discount instead of a premium. Honestly this is probably my last gas car and maybe last car, but dammit I am just sad.
No, we have a large and vibrant queer population here, and plenty of gay events. I would guess it’s just simple bigotry of the governor himself. He wants them back in the closet. Tampa is #5 in the nation in terms of absolute numbers of population being gay, our current mayor is lesbian. And Florida overall about 5% gay, that’s average or more, it’s certainly not hidden.
Oh come on. The rhetoric is insane . I live in Florida and price gouging during a hurricane or other emergency is absolutely illegal here, there’s a hotline to call if you see it. There is a difference between raising prices because your costs have gone up, and price gouging. If the invisible hand of the market isn’t working (big surprise, ha) that’s what laws are for.
Well then, what are we waiting for? Let’s go visit Alpha Centauri!
A Republican mayor is different category somehow, at least where I live we tend to alternate and unfailingly it goes like this:
Democratic mayor works on infrastructure, storm drains, water pipes, things you can’t see. Some social programs too, down payment assistance, e-bike vouchers, tree giveaways, funds for low income housing.
Republican mayor courts business, works on the superficial beautification of the city, showy things like stadiums, funnels tax money to companies more than to individuals. Tax breaks for hiring locals, rather than trying to push the money straight back to us.
I kind of think we need a little of that, but not sure why it gets labeled fiscally conservative.
I got a new laptop at work and everything, every file I worked in, was creating a second copy of itself on OneDrive. It was so annoying and took awhile but I found instructions on deleting the duplicates.
It took all the files off my local machine and left the ones on OneDrive.
Aaaargh!
And if the therapy aligns with their physical gender? No treatment for a girl who goes through puberty too young? Nothing for a girl of 17 who is worried because she hadn’t started “developing” or gotten her period? Nothing for a boy who isn’t going through male puberty, or starts it at 5? Intersex kids who are mis-assigned at birth and panic as adolescents?
Yes the therapies are not without risk, but doing nothing is also not without risk. The only reason doctors will prescribe puberty blockers is if the kids are suffering, otherwise the “care” that is getting outlawed is counseling. I have a trans kid and the doctor prescribed counseling but they can’t get it because the clinics aren’t allowed to “treat” the transgendered now.
These people drive me crazy. I never had an abortion because I think it’s creepy as fuck but I don’t think my experience should define everyone else’s, these men are evil. If a lady has to have an abortion, she has to. Nobody wants to, and they want to heap shame on top of that, but literally will NEVER have to make that choice because they are men. Fuck off.
Now I would reject this straight away, except that I like cold brew, fresh orange juice, and Topo Chico. It just tastes like fizzy smoky orange and is lovely.
The ginger I can’t quite imagine but coffee and orange are more compatible than I could have imagined without trying it.
I just want to point out that both the abortion amendment and the marijuana amendment here in Florida had bolded text on them added by the state - in the case of the abortion one, including the dubious claim that “it will increase the number of abortions performed” and both still won the popular vote, more in favor than opposed, they just didn’t make 60%.
