Crisps,

Unless you live in a handful of swing or proportional electoral college states this is the correct thing to do. If my vote swung it for Biden in my deep red state then he’d statistically already have 90% of the electoral votes.

If we ever have a popular vote for president I’ll change this.

I’ll still vote though for the down ballot races I may effect.

Crisps,

I’d like to see median net income over mortgage + property tax. The numbers don’t mean much when property taxes are more than the mortgage but there is no state income tax.

Crisps,

I fear the change from monthly to annual only subscriptions is on the horizon

Tesla Lays Off Entire Team Behind Brakes (www.theonion.com)

AUSTIN, TX—In the latest round of layoffs for the company’s struggling automotive division, electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla fired the entire team behind brakes, sources confirmed Wednesday. “As we continue to rightsize the Tesla workforce, we have come to the decision that stopping the car is no longer a critical...

Crisps,

Isn’t it called the condom pocket for a reason?

If your nut is a bit high, try putting a capo on the first fret and play everything the same, but a key lower.

Also advice from Marty Schwartz is to stop avoiding songs with F. Just play them with a poor F. They will start to clear up. F is hard to practice on its own because you use too much pressure at first and it tires your hand out quickly.

Crisps,

This is the same as the argument that tall people need more leg room on a plane, and shouldn’t be charged to upgrade their seat. Or that someone with a bad back should be able to fly business for free.

Crisps,

Same reason I stopped believing in Santa Claus, the Easter bunny and the Tooth fairy. I grew up.

Crisps,

It depends where you live. If you are in a deep red state, it doesn’t matter. If we went blue enough for my vote to swing the state, Biden has already won anyway. I feel safe voting 3rd party and not giving him a symbolic popular vote.

With no electoral college, down ballot matters. Vote blue on those!

Make sure you vote though!

Crisps,

Our road system, retirement benefits, health system (except USA), public school system, national parks are all socialist.

Crisps,

If it were codified like this as law everywhere, people would accept it better. The rule breaking is what pisses a lot of people off. It would be much more predictable and safer too.

Apple and google should add location based parental control, in addition to the time based. A checkbox ‘in a school’ would be easy. Let parents disable things they don’t need like Netflix while leaving them with their emergency communication device.

Not perfect, but it would help.

Crisps,

Shutting every complaint down with ‘racist’, ‘fascist’, ‘nazi’ etc. is why far right parties are rising. It is time to stop acting like middle schoolers and allow people to voice concerns and have debate, lest they vote far right as the only alternative. Nobody wants that.

Crisps,

I’ll add to this the lack of male only spaces throughout life. There used to be scouts, boys sports, working men’s clubs, veterans clubs etc. Almost all of it is mixed now because that was sexist. The opposite has happened in female areas with charity leagues, coding clubs, sports, gyms, etc.

Crisps,

I came to say the same as many other replies. For older men, it doesn’t matter as much, they can simply create their own spaces, but for boys they really can’t, they are pushed into mixing in most situations. Boys are more boisterous, so need the organized outdoor spaces. They can’t get that male space from sleepovers like girls at that age do.

For another example, think of how a group of teenagers act on their own, now how does that change when you add an adult? It is obviously unhealthy for them to always be around an adult.

Crisps,

I wonder if there is a difference in direct buy, vs dealership. Since your only choice is what they have in the lot.

Crisps,

This is because alcohol is a diuretic. The more you drink the more you pee and need liquids.

Some countries have an automatic year or two driving ban for drunk driving. It’s time we did this for phones.

Crisps,

Even if we required video evidence, it would have a huge affect on the problem.

Crisps,

This is untrue. If they earn less than minimum after tips the business has to make it up. The first $5 an hour essentially go in the pocket of the owner.

Crisps,

More annoying than just asking for a tip on in delivery or takeout, is asking for the tip first. At this point it is just a fee.

Crisps,

Never said anything about whether I tip. Just that there is no such thing as earning below minimum wage legally. The same argument about minimum wage stands for any employee like a cashier, burger flipper etc.

You should probably go see someone about your anger issues.

Crisps,

There is no need for a separate sound card now, it is built in.

Crisps,

Biden isn’t just old, he’s very old. Have you ever spent much time around an 85 year old? They may not be totally senile, but they are almost all losing language skills by this point. Pretty important skill for someone who speaks on behalf of their country.
