If you like peeing on koalas and getting caught in the rain

By not voting, you are still, implicitly, voting for the candidate who you wouldn’t have voted for. Do you think he’s not supporting Israel?

Do you think he even has any moral standing?

That’s who you’re voting for by not voting.

You just want to absolve yourself of that moral responsibility.

That’s exactly what you are doing. You’re focusing on this one issue, retreating yourself from the binary decision because neither options stands for what you (or I, or morality) would prefer. Completely ignoring that withdrawing from the choice plays into the hand of the infinitely worse candidate. So by not choosing, you do nothing to stop the situation in Gaza, but might actually make things a lot worse for people all over.

You can virtue signal that you did not compromise on your believes, while actually helping your country make a worse place.

Would this not be considered as “providing comfort to insurrectionists”, as described in the 14th amendment. Even just promising pardoning them.

So even if they argue he supposedly wasn’t involved in it, it would still disqualify him from office.

Do you see a subway on that picture?

When the call is coming from inside the (white) house…

(Edit: to be clear, back in 2020)

The reason there is a difference in how much light is reflected, is because the moon is in a different position. During a new moon, it’s on the day side of the earth (so in between the sun and the earth) while during a full moon, it’s on the night side.

So there could theoretically be a gravitational effect, although I don’t think it would impact anyone’s sleep.

If anyone is noticing a difference in sleep quality, it’s most likely indeed to do with the amount of light.

This is essentially a pro freedom of speech legislation.

It’s not though. It doesn’t just protect employers to call anyone whatever pronoun they want, it mandates that the preferred pronoun for trans people (and others) are not used.

It doesn’t just protect bigotry, it requires it.

Is this Grok output?

bc they haven’t had as terrible of a racist past as the US

You do know the Holocaust happened in Europe right?

Other than that, I do agree with you. Europe is still very racist but we like to think we’re not. Just because it’s less talked about, doesn’t mean it’s not there.

It’s an easy rule, yes. It’s also an easy one to overlook if you’re not paying attention.

“Word je blij?”, but also “wordt je moeder blij?”.

It’s not like people don’t understand the rule. No native Dutch speaker would say “Loopt jij?”

I think the main errors happen with “voltooide deelwoorden” (past participle). Then you need mnemonic devices like “'t kofschip” to know whether it’s t or d (or determine it using what you would say in the past time of the verb). It doesn’t help that e.g., “gebeurt” and “gebeurd” both are correct depending on the tense used.

Also the fact that the t drops when the verb is inversed in the 2nd person singular present tense, and not e.g., past tense (“Je wordt” but “Word je”) is a weird rule.

It’s not thát complicated and if you pay attention, you should be able to get it all right. That’s why I think such mistakes are more a sign of carelessness and not of stupidity.

Imagine being brainwashed bombarded on a daily basis with messages of how leftist will take over your country and how Trump will save them

No, it proves me right. People are still willing to pay for the service despite the price hike. So it must mean that people think this non-essential service, for which there are alternatives, is worth the money.

Unfortunately, this is users allowing for this kind of behaviour.

The original comment was that voting with your wallet doesn’t work. I’m saying that it’s a problem with enough people voting with their wallet. If you are the only person that cares about something and stop buying from a particular company, they will not even notice it.

On the other hand, look what happened when bud light had this thing with a trans influencer and conservatives got ridiculously upset with this, as they do. ABInbev is still feeling the effects of that.

1% might have 50% of the wealth, they do not account for 50% of the spending. Especially not at Taco Bell.

Pure capitalism is broken af, but companies like this will feel it if 10% of costumers stops going there. The increase in price can recover some of it, but only to a certain extent. It’s a simple supply and demand issue.

That being said, I’m not from the US, so take my opinion on local issues with a grain of salth. And I definitely don’t mean to imply that wealth inequality is not an issue. On the contrary.

Do you think farmers should not use any tractors and pick their crops using manual labour?

That would also create a lot of jobs.

Now I want to see a video game where every other NPC you talk to, complains about all the NPCs.

A big enough hit if 42% of Chrome users switch to a different browser.

However, I wouldn’t be surprised to see that people with adblock are more likely to use something other than Chrome. And some people will stay with Chrome and deal with the lack of adblock.

You can also do that with Firefox on your computer.

It’s not in settings, but you can easily google the instructions.

What kind of a broken system is that?

Just to be clear, you mean that people ignoring the laws is what makes it broken, right? Not the laws themselves?

Cause your last sentence threw me off for a second.

If so, I totally agree with you.

I’m not from the US, but are people really streaming while driving? Cause that’s just ridiculously stupid.

I know people are driving much longer distances in the US than here, but at least put on some podcast or music to entertain you. Nothing that keeps your eyes off the road.
