Cab companies have stricter safety regulations and background checks for their drivers.
And less safety.
At first I was like, “lol, what kind of dumpster fire is this going to be?”, and then I started listening to it and holy shit that’s awesome. I’m going to have to go back and read the captions so I can see what the fuck the song is about (my luck it’s some pro-nazi bullshit) but music wise it is fucking fire, hell even the video is decent.
Actually, it looks like it’s anti-political corruption. That’s fucking awesome. And the lyrics are fucking amazing. There’s some serious poetry, humor, and rage rolled up this thing.
I fully get what you are saying, and I wish I believed that we had the leverage that you think we do. But, I think Netanyahu actively wants Trump in power, and I don’t think Biden has the power or ability to really do anything to stop him. It’s not just Netanyahu either, it’s Putin, Farage, Erdogan, Meloni, Le Pen, Orban, and all the other conservative/fascist leaders out there. And as bad as Biden is, a Trump victory is 10x worse. I don’t think Netanyahu would have pulled any of this shit if there was no chance for Trump. I honestly think that by threatening Biden, you just emboldened Netanyahu to do even worse. The greater the atrocities that get committed, the more likely that Trump wins, then he’ll have free reign to really do whatever he wants. Sounds like a win-win for Netanyahu.
That is not what they’re saying. They are saying that there’s only one reason anyone would need the name and address of trans children and that is to terrorize them. Even if they say they have a different reason (history shows that they don’t) the one only effect that they could and would have is terror.
Range anxiety is not just about a single trip. You are assuming that not only will we all be able to just charge whenever and wherever we park our cars, but that we’ll never fail to do so. You also assume that only one person will be driving the car. If I forget to plug in my phone it’s not a big deal. I can just plug it in on the way to work or bring a battery pack. And it is not uncommon for my kid to bring our car home on empty. And then of course there are broken charges and unreliable utilities. I can’t even count on a reliable internet connection wherever I go and that can be supplied wirelessly. I have lived far enough out in the country before that I’ve had to deal with range anxiety in ICE vehicles. The threat of running out of gas before you can make it to a gas station is a very real and stressful issue. I can only imagine how much worse it is going to be when it takes more than just a gas can and a few minutes to get you going when you screw up.
Yes, these stories are either outright lies, or are about rich people not being willing to wait their turn. Meanwhile, here I am drowning in medical debt, putting off getting procedures done, and trying to decide if I would rather just live with my dental problems, or risk getting kidnapped and murdered in Mexico, because they have so many Americans crossing the border to get dental work that they have not one, but multiple top tier dental towns.
Fancy word people,
with your stupid tricky words.
Fuck your tricky words.
That’s not the advertisement that you think it is. If you think about it for even a moment you’ll realize that it’s because we prioritize the wealthy in the US. Sure a rich person from Canada can come down and get a procedure in a moment’s notice but how many Americans have to leave the US to get the procedure themselves or even worse are never able to get it at all?
It’s more like the difference between not being able to avoid being in a boxing match vs getting mugged by a gang of thugs looking to prove how tough they are. Either way you’re getting punched in the face, but there is a difference in the level of harm that they intend to inflict.
I think a lot of people are really bothered by it, but just don’t understand why. They can sense the hate and bigotry layered into the scenario, but they can’t really see past the the misandry in the responses to see just how truly awful the question is. And I think they cant just let it go without understanding it.
Not just the layers, but a full history of every alteration they made from the first pixel to the last.
Maybe she never wears underpants so it felt normal?
It is always the stuff that they mumble and handwave that you have to watch out for. The Moderation part is just to get everyone all talking about that. The scary part is the “other stuff”. They probably want access to everyone’s data so they can train their AI on it.
Or maybe less because you will buy in bulk.
One of our 2 choices for president has committed treason multiple times, been impeached twice, claims he wants to be a dictator, and has been found guilty of 34 cases of fraud related to an election cover up, and he is still going to be nominated as the candidate for the party that styles itself as the “law and order” party.
I’m not really sure what kind of shape you think we are in.
Drunk posting is sad.
All this effort into trying to convince us not to vote, or throw our vote away. Dozens of threads, and hundreds of posts every day. And this is just on Lemmy… Lemmy has less total users than some subs on that shitty site we all used to use.
If nothing else tells you how much your vote matters this vote, then that insane effort should make it clear.
