Any "political journalist" that doesn't know that the deadline for the DNC to officially nominate a candidate is actually August 7th (not the 19th) should sit down, shut their mouth, and probably start looking for a new career.

This would need to happen at the virtual roll-call that the Democratic party needs to do before August 7th. The convention on the 19th is even more of a formality than usual this year.

I think a lot of people who like to talk about politics forget that Jan 6th happened AFTER the 2020 election. There were people who voted for trump because of the R after his name and then Jan 6th happened and they were like "wait, that's not what I was asking for"

Mine stopped cooling the other day. I don't know much about AC, but I found a pipe on it that had bottle brush hanging from it. I poked the pipe with the brush a bit and it to cool again (at least for now). A technician is coming to give it a proper cleaning/ checkup next week.

If they're going to switch, that needs to happen before August 7th, not the convention (unless they don't want to bother putting a dem candidate on the ballot in Ohio)

Umm... As a left of dem in a red state, I vote in Republican primaries to attempt harm reduction. Please don't stop my mail. I generally don't like getting mail, but it would probably be bad if it stopped coming 😕

Every single suggestion In the comments to this seems worse than Biden. A president is more than just the person on the debate stage. You should consider who the candidate would pick for their cabinet/advisors as well

🤣 I just retook the quiz. It asked the right question, but none of the 7-8 options were my answer, so I had to pick "other". Instead of knowing exactly which city, the map is like "IDK, could be anywhere but New England

My mom owns the book the quiz is based on, so I know my city gets a call-out for a local linguistic quirk in the book that is not included in the quiz.

Omg scissors! I'm pretty exclusively left-handed and learned to use righty ✂️ with my left hand. My parents bought me a pair of left-handed ✂️ for my birthday in 3rd grade. It was like "🤯Is this really what using ✂️ is supposed to feel like!" I still remember that even though it's been a couple decades

I'm glad you found a way to help her with her anxiety! My girl has anxiety issues from being abandoned by her previous human(s). I know she should probably eat more wet food, but she's so much more chill about me leaving the house because a machine will put food in her bowl whether I'm there or not.

I don't know about the data on injuries, but it's extremely annoying as a lefty to encounter something that was clearly designed by right-handed people and nobody ever noticed how difficult it was for a left-handed person to use

Depending on where you got the headphones from, there's a good chance returns go straight in the garbage, so you might actually be doing the planet a favor by reselling them rather than returning them

I thought the whole oxygen countdown thing was gross because it seemed like most people were rooting for the worst possible options. I would much prefer a quick death to sitting around in a confined space with several strangers knowing you are going to die in a few days.

Or even if a fairly minor employee at one of your company's plants puts together a slideshow explaining that political attire is not acceptable in the workplace and listing maga hats as one of many examples. Yes even that is enough to bring Dear Leader's wrath down on your entire company.

Although noise pollution is also bad, so maybe ICEs should stay quieter, but then the chuds that insist on having loud trucks to try to show off how manly they are would just insist on buying worse engines, so... IDK 😮💨

Yep! Those exist too. I'm fine with more efficient IC engines being sonicly enhanced... well electric would be better, and better public transit would be even better, but I won't let perfect be the enemy of good.

Most if not all electric cars play at least some fake engine noise, so pedestrians can hear them, but I'm sure it's a less vroomy vroom.

Class action suits are supposed to make a lot of smaller cases enough to be worth pursuing, but they end up only being worth pursuing for the lawyers. This definitely needs to be fixed

I know they had to bully at least one company out of their name to rebrand to "Meta". I'm sure that wasn't the majority of 50B, but... I guess add it to the pile of stupid things they spent $ on

Is there any risk of this accidentally bringing trouble for real people who really don't need it? Like, I wouldn't mind if ChatGPT accidentally monkey typewritered a transphobe, but it would suck to accidentally cause trouble for a trans person or other struggling minority

Too bad my state is... actually I should check the current situation for my state. It's been a few years since I last looked. (I was thinking about getting an electric car for my next car and got a bit discouraged when I realized most of my state's grid was powered by coal)

WHY DID YOU HAVE TO GIVE ME A NEW FEAR!!! I only recently got a handle on my arachnophobia by researching spiders enough to be confident that that spider is not a recluse or black widow so I'm probably fine. Now I have to learn centipedes?!?

My mom knows a lot more about flowers than me. I figured, if I missed something, she'd remove it before bringing the flowers into the house. One of the buds that hadn't opened yet was a lily. Mom saw it, but just trusted that her cat would leave it alone. Kitty is at the vet hospital now.
