  • Biden sees real GDP up 8% since Trump

  • In a forum for reasoned argumentation, yours is merely inflammatory with shitty grammar and no factual information. Blocking.

  • Biden sees real GDP up 8% since Trump

  • Not only does the comparison predate the covid pandemic, it also says nothing in particular about Trump. Some people think the economy would have done great under him, some don't, and some think other things are more important than just the economy. Still, there is no comparison to Trump here, there is only something showing that we've done better under Biden than many countries have done with their economies and leaders.

  • That was a great simple explanation, thank you. I've certainly made some adjustments, and was thinking about it yesterday while shopping. Paper supplies have gotten so very expensive that I've (finally) purchased cloth napkins to use both for napkins and for smaller kitchen clean up jobs. I'll be using less paper, and more water for laundry. I'm estimating 1-2 loads worth of napkins per month. Pretty sure it will be both cheaper and more environmentally friendly than paper towels.

  • Democracy is at stake. | An address from Bernie Sanders

    Jump

  • Thank you for posting this. I've put it on my FB page (very tiny, family and close friends only). My Bernie loving friends who won't vote for Biden because he's too conservative or whatever need to see it. And my conservative family members who consider themselves trump loving patriots need to understand the consequences. I captioned it "If you believe in democracy, please vote to support it."

    If we're going to keep Trump from a 2nd term, each of us needs to do what we can to convince all our friends and family to vote in support of democracy.

  • Do you tip for takeout? (How much?)

    Jump

  • I hate tipping culture so much. But I always tip on food service, even take out that I pick up. I'm not going to punish restaurant workers for our messed up system which pays them substandard "wages". During covid crisis I raised my tipping $ a bit, and haven't gone back down. Before covid I also tipped 10% on take out. Because I wanted my favorite restaurants to stay in business, I started tipping 20% for take out.

  • No, Wind Farms Aren’t ‘Driving Whales Crazy’ | Donald Trump has attacked President Biden’s climate and energy policies with gusto, but many of his criticisms are simply untrue.

  • To be fair, 3 lies are examined in this article, not just one.

  • Ahhh a girl can dream. But not all dreams come true.

  • The Supreme Court seems poised to reject efforts to kick Trump off the ballot over the Capitol riot

    Jump

  • So that would mean insurrection would be legal in America. If Biden loses to Trump, I will feel empowered to riot in the same way. Time to get a gun I guess.

  • How do you refer to the lgbtq+ "community" least excludingly?

  • "Gay" is either gendered or not the same way that "guy" and "dude" are either gendered or not.

  • I want to stop my boomer coworkers from hurting LGTBQ people

    As a 70 year old lesbian, I'd like to suggest you might find some more allies in your organization, please don't assume all boomers are bigots. I have many grey haired allies. I doubt you're as alone as you think you are, but maybe you're just more "out" than they are. Give them the chance to come out and join you.

  • “respect my trans homies, or I’ll identify as a fucking problem”

    LOL I LOVE this!! Maybe you could change it to “respect my trans homies, or I’ll identify as a ducking problem” or "pucking froblem".

    As a 70 year old lesbian, one thing I've long believed and believe now more than ever is that the most radical thing anyone in the queer community has ever done is simply come out in their daily life. Then live their life as an out person, whatever they are out as, and to the greatest extent possible. So to you, thank you for coming out as an ally, and I hope you do so loudly and daily. It can take courage.

    Queer is a great umbrella term, but it still originates fairly recently as a hated slur, which suggests queer people have more right to use it than not-so-queers. Thirty five years ago I was friends with a lesbian couple in their 60s who HATED the term dyke, and were highly perturbed when I joyfully embraced being a dyke, because "dyke" had been such a horrible slur when they were young. But now my generation was reclaiming the term.

  • there’s easier ways to tour the Middle East - and I’d include joining the Marines in that.

    That gave me a nice chuckle, thanks.

  • Your English is mostly perfect, but (and as someone who tries, like you, to speak another language correctly):

    Could it be that not only these platforms are harmful in mental health and privacy but also physical health?

    should be

    Could it be that not only are these platforms harmful in mental health and privacy but also physical health?

    The change in location of the word are is what makes it a grammatically correct question rather than a statement.

    To me, I think the primary harm to our physical health IS the impact on our mental health, which is a physical health. To say nothing of neglecting our physical bodies by being so sedentary.
