themachine , in New York county signs first mask ban into US law, sparking controversy

This is ridiculous.

Reverendender ,

It’s the episode of Avenue 5 where everyone convinces themselves they’re in a simulation and jump out the airlock.

I will never forgive HBO for cancelling that show.

fine_sandy_bottom ,

It’s not ridiculous, just just plain wrong.

Chocrates , in "Double haters" who loathed Trump and Biden actually seem to like Kamala Harris, poll suggests

The fuck do they have to give it such a negative name? I think a lot of people didn’t like either option, across a lot of different spectra of citizen.

Pacattack57 , in Rachael Lillis, 'Pokémon' actor who voiced Misty and Jessie, dies at 46

So sad to see another person become a statistic in the fight against cancer. My heart goes out to her and her family.

I hate to make something like this political but Republicans in the senate just rejected a bipartisan bill that would have increased funding for finding a cure for cancer.

shalafi , in Biggest US grocery chain investigated over Uber-style surge pricing

We keep giving them money and they keep fucking us over! What are we to do?!

TommySoda ,

Unfortunately some people don’t have a choice. The only grocery stores near me are Kroger or Albertsons. I have to drive over an hour to get any other options.

But at the same time, even though I only shop for two, it might end up being cheaper to drive an hour and a half to Costco if shit keeps going the way it is. When you have to pay over $100 on less than a week of groceries, gas prices seem quaint in comparison.

JimSamtanko , in "Double haters" who loathed Trump and Biden actually seem to like Kamala Harris, poll suggests

I’m voting for the NOT TRUMP candidate until we fix this broken system and have better options. Couldn’t really stand Biden, but I was supporting the fuck out of that dude if it meant we could avoid the shit show that would be a Trump presidency.

I feel better with Harris, but still not ideal.

“I never vote for, only against.” – W.C. Fields in a rare serious moment.

Something I take to heart. I will never get a candidate who represents everything I stand for, but there will always be one who represents less of what I stand for than the other.

I saw something similar recently along the lines of:

Voting isn’t a love-letter to a candidate; it’s a chess move.

@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

That’s a great way of looking at it.

littlewonder , (edited )

Great quote. Also, love your username. SQL injection vibes.

Edit: Went in search of more info about this quote and thought I’d share what I found:

"A vote is a chess move, not a valentine."

  • Rebecca Solnit

It’s a summarized version of the writer’s idea/turn of phrase she often brought up in her writing around the 2016 election.

Here’s her November 2016 article from The Nation.

until we fix this broken system

THIS. Campaign Finance & Election Reform is the most important single-issue in America right now because it impacts quite literally every other problem and the disenfranchisement and frustrations so many Americans feel with the system right ow.

  • Amidst this 2-Party System, we have no choice but to vote for the lesser-of-two-poor choices.
  • Between these two parties, only one party has actually advocated for fixing the system.
  • We need a Constitutional Amendment. It’s the only way.
  • This movement needs to be grassroots and built state-by-state.

The good news is that there is untapped bipartisan support for said initiative. We just need to ALL keep repeating this, which again, is easy because it can be injected into nearly every single political conversation.

Longer write-up for those interested.

Djtecha , in MAGA election official immediately spews conspiracies after conviction

Hope she gets the full 22 years

pepperjacques , in A teen was falling asleep during a courtroom field trip. She ended up in cuffs and jail clothes

I got put in silent lunch one time because I fell asleep during a guy describing his time in Japan as a teacher by my asshole homeroom teacher (she thought I was acting up because another teacher woke me up and she only saw that). That was unfair and I absolutely hated middle school, but this is a whole new level of fucked.

SarcasticMan , in Vance agrees that raising grandchildren is ‘whole purpose of postmenopausal female’
@SarcasticMan@lemmy.world avatar

Women are for reproduction use only. Men can fuck couches and dress up like women but their place is out in the world. Doing the tough jobs like I did when I was a US Marine, risking my life to write press releases and enjoy it in the rear, hahaha, that’s what she said. I am not weird, you’re weird. When a woman can no longer produce babies and her womb has dried up she should devote her time to raising the children of her husband’s young new baby machi…I mean grandchildren. In conclusion, Donny said I could say the n-word any time I want if he gets elected and he would also buy me a nice new sexy suede couch and he promised not to deport my brown wife and our Italian-level white children." - James David “My Preferred Name Is JD” Vance

Does that mean if a white guy gets divorced and loses custody of his kids, he becomes a purposeless entity?

“That’s DIFFERENT”

PrincessLeiasCat ,

Dude did you miss the part of your own sentence that said “white guy”?

This means he has a penis. And it is white. I don’t understand the question.

tyler ,

It really implies that grandfathers are useless lol. Only grandmothers have purpose.

snek ,
@snek@lemmy.world avatar

That’s why women live 10 years longer on average. God made it saw. Man dies, woman raises grandkids then dies. /s

TimLovesTech ,
@TimLovesTech@badatbeing.social avatar

Well they plan to remove a woman’s ability to get a divorce, so if the white guy wants to keep his kids he just doesn’t divorce his wife. Problem solved! /s

What the fuck is going on in Detroit where the other judges haven’t removed him yet?

NegativeInf , in A teen was falling asleep during a courtroom field trip. She ended up in cuffs and jail clothes

If I got arrested for every time I fell asleep on a boring field trip, I’d have been arrested 0 times. Because Texas doesn’t fund education.

That was quite a ride 😄👏👏
