A hole would be something, this is NOTHING!

Better yet, put it on the wall at the local library and see how long it takes someone to notice.

FYI that was debunked.

Water’s constituent parts want so badly to BE water they will explode to do it.

If it is equal representation, why does having districts make the rural vote heard? Whether it is one person one vote or 100,000 people one vote it won’t make a difference.

Everyone will still have their representatives and senators to hear them. In fact I think we need to increase the number of representatives. It needs to be a number that a person can reasonably represent. Say 50 or 100 thousand people per representative. This would also help with gerrymandering as having a lot of small districts would make everyone’s voice louder.

But for national positions like the president, we should have proportional votes, preferably with getting rid of first past the post that got us stuck with the two party system to start with.

As a Washingtonian I also dream of that. It is ridiculous that only people in states that are kinda purple have their opinions heard.

No sir, I don’t like it.

Inconceivable!

If he’s Mac, where is Me?

I had bppv a few months ago. It sucks but the epley stuff worked to clear it up.

My county in Washington state has a website where you can check the status. I even get text or email notifications for the status. “We received your ballot”, “the signature was verified”, “your vote has been counted”.

There was even a problem with my signature once and all I had to do was log in and verify it and it was counted.

The first thing we need to do to fix healthcare in this country is to decouple health insurance from our jobs. If you lose your job you should not lose your health benefits. And no, cobra is not a substitute.

Hotness aside, I actually prefer the taste of pretty much any pepper over jalapeños.

I suppose you called them small computer system interface drives instead of SCSI drives too.

At my last job I helped design VUIs, voice user interface. We called them “vooeys”.

I had a coworker who joked that you could tell if a post is load bearing because the saw gets stuck when you are cutting through it.

Honestly we should set it so Wyoming has like 5 reps and then use that as a baseline. Increase the total number of reps 10 times and make each district manageable for one person to campaign in.

This would negate the problems with the electoral college and make gerrymandering much harder to pull off.

I think I read that Oglaf comic.

A lot of shows were “filmed in front of a live studio audience”. I don’t think that makes it better than canned laughs. It affects the pacing of the jokes, where the characters will tell a joke, wait for laughs, tell the next joke, etc. Any time I see that now, it makes the show feel dated, but that doesn’t mean it was a bad show.

I worry about those guys. Musk could just decide he wants to send a mountain of lawyers at them if he got a bee in his bonnet about it.
