There’s like 1200 legal benefits to marriage iirc. Things like being able to visit in the hospital outside of visiting hours, possessions going to your spouse after death if there’s no will, stuff like that.

Remember when Trump implements national bans on abortion that all people capable of pregnancy earned it /s

“I don’t really care, do you?”

Not voting for Biden when the only other viable option is a fascist seems a bit like edge lord bullshit to me, but idk, maybe I’m out of touch with slang

I’m only vaguely keeping up with the news (I have PTSD relating to war/violence). Can you help me understand how universities are invested in Israel? What would divesting mean?

Genuinely curious, how is Joe worse than Hillary?

I’m still voting for Biden in a red state. We used to be more purple and really still are if looking just at the popular vote. He lost here by 500k votes in 2020 but it’s very possible these narratives being pushed about swing states affect turnout more than we give credit for. We’re lucky to get 50% turnout of registered voters in presidential elections. Local elections are more like 25% if we’re being generous, and those are more important.

…if you knew the context you wouldn’t be writing out disinformation. He said that wealthy people being taxed at higher rates would not fundamentally change their lifestyle, which is true. Someone making 500k and being taxed 20% would not see a substantial change if it raised to 30, 40, even 50%.

So he agrees with you.

Cheers.

Do you know the context for that quote?

Even traveling. I forget the stat I heard years ago but iirc it was a majority of people hadn’t even travelled outside of that. Which I get to some extent since most people live in cities, but having been raised in the middle of nowhere misery it’s necessary to travel more than 20 miles just to get to a damn grocery store. Once I had a car myself I was road tripping constantly

Depends on the country. At least around 2020 I’d heard from my sister in Australia that they were trying to incentivize people in the industry to get work visas. It’s hard to get citizenship there though iirc

Omg I love rearranging furniture. I feel so validated

Treat yo self!

This is weird, I’ve heard the opposite that dry food is better. Lord help me I’m goin on a Google fest.

It surprises me he’s trying again. He already ran for the state house iirc. Fucking hell.

Maybe you could keep in mind that this state also had trigger laws banning abortion as soon as roe was overturned. The stakes are much fucking higher for people that can get pregnant.

Hey we have some pretty parks though 😭

As an AFAB Missourian I’m fucking terrified.

This is the best take I’ve ever heard tbh
