  1. BBB wouldn't get us anywhere near there and simply not giving rich coastal elites a tax break would nearly be enough to cover this spending based on the tax increases on the table
  2. this kills the BBB (though no doubt part of this is 'hoping for the best, planning for the worst')
  3. the lesson should not only be that Trump was/is bad but that the bloated military could easily be used for these exact purposes with a more morally flexible administration and the only way to prevent it is by cutting the military budget to ribbons
  4. Yes, in my backyard if it's too large it won't fit (the character of the neighborhood) it's not the size, it's how you use it (with respect to the built environment)
  5. the evidence of the stupidity of this country continues to mount (about 1/3 of the population thinks all three things simultaneously)
  6. anyone who lauds Buckley (and isn't a conservative themselves) has never actually read anything he ever said or wrote, or read anything about his run for NYC mayor in 65. He was a pro-police hardliner and used "racially inflammatory" speech and won a quarter of the vote in reactionary Staten Island on the Conservative Party ticket.
  7. as I was writing this my boss emailed me to let me know someone from our team was leaving and I'd be finishing out the project she was working on. lmao
  8. iirc harris lost some long time aides recently so she probably doesn't have a good operation to defend her at this point but the obvious answer is she's a non-white woman in a position of power
  9. QFT. I got a 10% increase from the job I held only 8 months which was in itself a 25% increase over my previous, plus a title bump. Go looking, just do it!
  10. I doubt we'd have certain policies (like MJ legalization) without propositions and some measure of direct democracy. To say nothing of higher minimum wages and expanded Medicaid coverage in red states. But California shows you how bad it can be though. Hello prop 13!
