Oh 100% this is why. It always comes down to money and power. This bill threatened both, especially #4.

1. “The right to a useful and remunerative job in the industries or shops or farms or mines of the nation.”
2. “The right to earn enough to provide adequate food and clothing and recreation.”
3. “The right of every farmer to raise and sell his products at a return which will give him and his family a decent living.”
4. “The right of every businessman, large and small, to trade in an atmosphere of freedom from unfair competition and domination by monopolies at home and abroad.”
5. “The right of every family to a decent home.”
6. “The right to adequate medical care and the opportunity to achieve and enjoy good health.”
7. “The right to adequate protection from the economic fears of old age, sickness, accidents, and unemployment.”
8. “The right to a good education.”

Elon famously made the decision to cut lidar and replace with cameras instead.

Ostrich. Easily the best game meat. It’s incredible.

Donald Trumps America is right. This isn’t my America.

2021 from a small local home builder. Much better quality (even for a COVID build) than the Oakwood garbage that’s in the rest of the neighborhood and much better insulated than an older home.

Oh … this isn’t dadjokes

I’m in the trades, we’ve only increased hiring.

That last sentence, "And I’m fighting for the very working people that he ran a campaign to empower that he has since then betrayed,” is very true.

The conservative people I work with DO NOT like what Trump is doing right now. Hope it hits fever pitch where they actually start doing something about it and send a very clear message. Trump won’t listen because he’s too much up a psychopathic narcissist but it may change the people around him to stop empowering him.

This is exactly what came to mind when I read the question. Unbelievably cinematic moment. Still one of my favorite strategy games.

I think Lemmy just don’t tolerate that view point. I see plenty of hard leftism being tolerated by mods when they shouldn’t. But hey, none of them are my instance. It’s grossly lopsided.

That’s what happened. It’s not the solution.

They still work better than no AC. Your costs just go up more than with a dual hose.

Source: had a single hose version and couldn’t sleep without it.

I’m similar expect I don’t take magnesium. I also have aphantasia. I get 8 hours nightly and wake up refreshed. I do drink 1 cup of coffee every morning. Acetaminophen and/or Ibuprofen as needed which isn’t often and usually only for a tension headache. No other drugs. I drink on occasion but no more than 1-3 beers/week and the rare night bourbon. My wife cans all of our veggies that are cannable so we know they’re fresh. We have pigs raised (working on a cow) and we eat pretty clean food (know how it was raised/grown) as much as possible.

I can’t remember the last time I can remember a dream, it’s been that long. I also have a terrible memory and it takes a a lot of effort to retain events, even something that happened last week, they’re mostly fading memories.

Good news is that means I’m generally very upbeat most of the time. I do not have bipolar disorder or any other mental issue that I know of. I’m very even keeled, so much so that I find Lemmy’s reactions to things happening in the world to be super amplified and irrational. Sometimes it’s warranted, many it’s simply bad for their mental health.

This is also not that accurate. Cities are where it rings true most and the US has a LOT of space in between them away from the coasts. It’s not really like tightly packed Europe and more like Scandinavia.

I also know a total of 0 people that make minimum wage, even in entry level jobs right out of high school.

There’s only 2 builders around here that do things better and they cost $100K more for the same sq ft. That’s what we went with. No major issues at all. One minor issue was the moron HVAC installers not using the max amp breaker on the condenser causing it to trip when under heavy load. The right size fixed it. Thanks building regional for passing their inspection you asshats.

It’s always about the money. Everyone else yelling about them spying, they’ll only do that if it makes them more money.

Lest we forget:

Fourteenth Amendment, Section 1:

All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

Pretty hard to argue that “all persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside” doesn’t mean what it clearly states. It’s not even in legalese. The fact that this wasn’t laughed out of court says everything.

That’s rich.

Irony. Hello? Are you asleep?

That’s hilariously inaccurate.
