You didn’t know that’s what they did in their spare time?

I just don’t know how I feel about it. They do go through an assessment before they’re allowed to end their life this way. Maybe if you really want to die because your life is just generally unbearable, you should be allowed to? I get that there are methods to beat addiction, but they don’t always work. If you just can’t stop smoking meth and you just can’t live that way anymore, maybe let that person die like they want to? I honestly don’t know if those are yes answers for me.

The article says that the mentally ill also get this option.

It does say it requires counseling before it is done, so you would have to fake that part.

It definitely sounds like a mob threat. “We hear you’re not voting our way. That makes Mr. Jordan mad. You don’t want to make Mr. Jordan mad.”

I have an idea. He can vote for Hakeem Jeffries. Just a thought.

Sixth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution:

Eighth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution:

In other words, fuck these unAmerican pieces of shit.

There is just no way that happened without Trump people being involved.

I gave up and got premium. It actually works out because we’ve cancelled Disney+ and Paramount+ and switched from the Spotify family plan to the Youtube Premium family plan and we’re saving money, but I’m annoyed that I’ve resorted to this.

Disney owns the American distribution rights, but yeah. They don’t own the copyright or the trademarks.

What a shitbrick. I am glad I never got into her books in the first place. I saw the first movie and had no interest in seeing the others. I read half the first book to my daughter and she got bored with it, so we stopped. My wife got really into her and is disappointed neither of us are, but fuck her. I don’t want to spend a dime on her.

Edit: Weird part- she’s always been an atheist and she loved the Narnia books.

Watching the current vote. Jordan has already lost and he only has 82 votes so far. Already 13 votes for ‘others’ and not Jeffries or Jordan.

FlyingSquid,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Yep. And the ‘other’ votes are all over the map. I have no idea how they’ll ever get anything done unless some Republicans cross the aisle and vote for Jeffries.

He already has. As of this time- 11:31 AM EST- 19 votes for ‘other.’

11:34 - 20. A vote for McHenry. They’re only in the Ms in an alphabetical vote.

EDIT: Damn, snuck a 21st in when I wasn’t paying attention! There were supposed to be only 20 holdouts.

11:40 - 22! A vote for Scalise!

11:41 - 23! Scalise again! Jordan is getting CREAMED!

11:43 - 24! A vote for Bruce Westerman whoever that is.

You mean to Jeffries?

This is amazing.

HOLY SHIT! 23!

Who on Earth is Bruce Westerman?

You were right! 25!
