Probably with running a bunch of independents at the local level. You can't do what the Greens tried and drag out an asset for the top position every four years with nothing else to show. Start small and get people used to the idea that it's okay for someone outside of the main parties to hold office. Build results then form a party from the independents once you've had some successful incumbents.

Took me way too long to realize we weren't talking about SanFran or Salesforce.

Therefore the wanton slaughter of 41,000 people is justified! Who knew they had an excuse this whole time?

Maybe Origin PC or Falcon NW? You can always turn the RGB off.

"Safety" because they are incapable of uploading a clean game to steam?

Also, this used to be on their website before they realised just how much data they could hoover from PC sales.

In Denver most of the big box stores have remote police surveillance boxes erected in the parking lot that alternate between playing classical music and announcing that the parking lot is being recorded. In downtown some establishments (especially if they're near warm air vents) will play the sounds of crying babies or screaming women.

These are attempts to keep people experiencing homelessness away from there.

I'm guessing we'll see the same legal approach to things like abortion as we currently do with weed. If the fed wants to deal with it they can, but don't expect Colorado to help. Unfortunately with their new sweeping mandate from the people I expect the fed to actually care about abortion more than weed.

He told me that sometimes he just doesn't feel like responding to me anymore

People normally like talking and hanging out with people they like. He used to and now he doesn't? Kinda seems like he wants a change but isn't willing to be the one to bring it up.

No. They are a common victim of the trolley. I simply didn't render the person deciding their vote as, given the topic of discussion at hand, felt it was implied. Clearly I should have foreseen that the complicated moral of "Palestine was fucked either way, but there are other people that can be saved" was too advanced for some.

And the "principled", "unwaivering", and allergic to nuance helped usher in a fascist who is the self proclaimed "protector" of Israel.

Anyone who thought that the guy who recognized Israel's contested capital, who "fought for Israel like no president ever before," who claimed "Anybody who’s Jewish and loves being Jewish and loves Israel is a fool if they vote for a Democrat,” who believes that the US election day was "the most important day in the history of Israel," who wants to deport students exercising their right to protest the genocide, and who's only criticism of the genocide was that it was too public and slow would be better for Gaza is a deluded fool.

I care because I'm not happy with fascists, and yet, due to others' apathy, ignorance, malice, or a mix thereof I have to live in a land ruled by fascists.
