It’s weird, but kind of accurate a lot of times. If they negotiate for an earmark or project, they did technically bring the money in - even if it’s something they would prefer not to have passed.

I’ve certainly been in similar situations at work where we all agree something is stupid, but make sure to get something out of it.

That’s silly. They don’t want anyone to get it. It’s their money as much as it is ours, so of course the reps should be fighting for their districts even if they hope the bill fails.

You can vote against a bill and still be responsible for specific portions of it or how it gets distributed. You fight for your state and district to get their pork even if you disagree with slaughtering the pig.

Go to c/fuckcars. Not sure which instance. The anti-road peeps are consistent and the American ones are progressive and would probably have to be tortured to vote R.

Government and corporate interests can’t help but suck each other off. Petty tyrants are gonna tyrant.

Weird. How did those ISPs end up the only option?

A lot of it is better delivery mechanisms for dextro-amphetamines.

Lmfao. I’d never thought of that as an extra issue for trans people. My mom can go through her siblings, then my sister and I before getting my brother’s name right.

There are a few explicitly racist songwriters from more recent times that don’t have any historical aspect.

I thought he wanted to be Jesse’s girl for a very long time.

Lies.

I’d make them pet my dog and talk to my mom.

We had a guy that would email the CEO with audio or video of him singing or something. Good dude. Sold people eggs every week from his hens. Got fired for actual bullshit his lead should’ve been canned for.

Nah. We’ll just continue to dry wash our hands and apologize while doing nothing useful.

Sorry ‘bout stealin’ your shit. Want it back? Fuck you. Have some empty words.

That’s 100% the right time lol. They get ballot access and funding from these elections.

That’s already the goal of state chairs for third parties.

Is having a problem with outright lies fascist? We can’t completely divorce ourselves from reality and be effective.

I don’t expect most people here (lemmy in general) to engage in argument with conservatives, but it’s nice when you don’t make it harder for me to.
