or even more directly: it would require the people CURRENTLY in power to sign a law that takes away THEIR power -

never going to happen. And my comment is generic enough for even “both sides” types

for scale, of course

Nope. SC ruled that “insurrection” has to be official declaration by congress. Otherwise we’d call everything we didn’t like an insurrection!

(that sentence is technically true, but my reply here is an “/s” as far as agreeing)

did I read the article right?

in the EU - everyone but the billionaires pay 50% total tax; but then THEIR billionaires also drop to the 25%-ish range?

so… it’s even WORSE disparity in EU?

I thought this was going to be a “not the onion” post.

yeah this is the confusing part - they’re still able to call “communism” the “bad guy”, but then somehow cozy up with russia - the “OG communists”?

They might argue the law only recognizes these books as official, and neither establishes religion or prevents others. “Argue” as in if it went to court, because either way it’s definitely bullshit.

not going to find any money there!

this is the 3rd or 4th time I’ve said this on lemmy - but I cannot understand how she faced absolutely zero consequences from exposing herself and heavy rubbing in a crowded theatre.

*instructions unclear - CO2 emissions violate this new law; henceforth, airplanes are illegal in Tennessee

Vote twice if you have to! /s

Segway Navimow

I have the Husq, but this is the first I’ve heard of the Segway. Pricier, but looks rather interesting!

I have the Husq 115h, 3rd year starting now. After it “breaks in” and everything is even, you don’t see/notice that the pattern is random. You just see cut grass.

I did have to modify the unit though! I contacted vender and Husq but it didn’t really go anywhere. Basically I had to cut off 2" of the “chin” in front because it kept hitting chunks of grass and triggering impact. After cutting, it works perfect. Seems like a really odd defect on their end.

Agreed, we need to be talking about this more.

it’s a shame he didn’t have this opinion a bit earlier… say… Jan 2021?

it’s “nice” that he said that, but… too little too late dude

It really makes no sense. How can a party that directly and loudly acts against a people - be supported by those people. Nuts.

It’s actually a decent way of showing “land doesn’t vote” when the states have equal representation (like US senate).

For electoral votes, you start with this but then make them larger per total count. Greatly corrects the “USA is 90% red!!!” that you get if you just color the states as-is.

oh, I am also “applying current feelings to a prior time” - I voted for Bush in 2000. I think I voted McCain in 2008 too? Or maybe Palin scared me away, I can’t remember. I had also just moved, maybe I missed that election.

or do you go back to 2000 with the “if Gore won”

Like what Dems did when Hilary ran 2016.
