Yeah my annoyance at having to pay more is totally from the business’s perspective you dumb piece of shit

Ahhhh gotcha, didn’t realize that, my mistake!

You can just say you’re from NJ lol, it’s not like any other state has an employment scam where you’re legally required to hire people to perform the simple, relatively safe act of pumping gas. At least not since WA finally trusted people to pump their own gas a few years back.

Edit: Sorry, OR not WA

A lot of people still buy into trickle down economics despite consistently not working for the several decades we have tried it and reflexively support tax cuts for the wealthy. A lot of those same people also think that kicking people off of what they consider to be “welfare” will somehow magically result in those people quickly becoming employed, thinking that the reason they aren’t employed is because they aren’t facing serious enough consequences for unemployment.

I’ll never forget that image, it’s gotta be the same lol. I never knew it was a shirt!

I remember that shitty gif going around flipphones back in about '08

Yeah I mean within romance languages you can’t be more wrong, but like, at least it’s the same family I guess lol

It’s Romanian lol, honestly you weren’t thaaaaaat far off I guess

As if the deterrent effect is from the possibility of suicide by cop instead of, idk, a critical mass within a community of armed people. It’s not like around 2019/20 we saw, firsthand, that when violence against cops increased their willingness to make frivolous stops decreased. But please, continue strawmanning this as some weird scenario where people are saying that suicide by cop will stop oppression.

Yeah that’s why I didn’t want to say “you’re always getting a background check,” I know teeeechnically that’s not true but like, you’re getting a background check lol.

Also depending on the state you definitely might need a pistol license and you probably need a background check regardless of the state.

Right that’s why I phrased my comment the way I did. Depending on the area it might be perceived as a trailer trash dog, a dog poor black people have, or a Latino dog. Either way, plenty of other breeds just as risky, if not more risky, that people don’t perceive the same way.

You’re getting downvoted but you’re right, if it was a wealthy white people dog it wouldn’t be banned everywhere.

I get that and I totally agree, but I don’t understand the food of comments here arguing that there won’t be reduced turnout in the middle of a Wednesday vs on a weekend. Most people with a full time job can’t just up and leave in the middle of a weekday with less than a week of notice, especially in large states with capitals that are far away. Turnout would be much better if it was on a weekend, and anybody denying that doesn’t live in reality.

No no, it’ll be a huge turnout and if you don’t agree then you’re an idiot for thinking that any significant amount of the population works 9-5 M-F. Just look at these comments! We can’t fail, we posted, “So when is the general strike and protest?” 78 times yesterday on every even vaguely political post, so turnout will be great in the middle of the day on Wednesday. Trust fam. /s

“Lemmy, my brother, for the last two years, has just said he’s tired and wandered off for EVERY single family porn might. He’s not even masturbating with us. What do you think is wrong?”

looks at Hungary, Poland, Italy, Germany, and whatever Greece calls it’s Coast Guard Suuuuuuuure it’s definitely just an us problem.

WAT???

In Europe it’s just sparkling “let them down in the Mediterranean and/or make sure they stay in their own neighborhoods.”

Solid pun.
