Time to queue up 'Take the Money and Run'? Do I have the right Steve Miller?

It pains me to not say fumble the ball too... however:

#11... I _DO_ have to provide identification proving I'm allowed to have a gun. Identification that wasn't easy to obtain, and wasn't free.

So reverse your stance with that back onto voting.

So the mayor of arguably the most influential city in the country, a member of the DSA, and according to this article responsible for the blue tsunami isn't important enough for me to be aware of the DSA and I only know about it because I've been told to be according to JPW... Right.

will be a ridiculous step towards alienating smaller states in an already divided country.

#141... Exactly. That's what this thread is about, what happens in the next election when a party does exactly these things. They get voted out en masse. That is exactly the point... The R's did it, now let's see if the D's fumble the bag the same or choose to actually lead.

#20 yes... Love that the '26 civic has real dials for that. BIG ones in the most ergonomically natural position when you reach for it from the drivers seat.

I've been distracted by the EV screen showing where the power was flowing from and two with the regenerative braking... more so than dealing with the touchscreens. :)

'26 Civic has a decent mix of touch screen and physical buttons. Definitely a better balance than the wife's Carnival

DSA running rampant... Let's pick one example.

Mamdani's rent freeze, coupled with his push for non profits have a right of first refusal to purchase properties deemed distressed by the gov't.

This is a property grab under the guise of sticking to greedy landlords. It's already forcing black owners out of the properties and will continue to get worse.

FFS doesn't anyone know it's not about how congress works in a technical sense. Given more air cover in congress, the DSA may be able to exert more control within the DNC and dominate their platform and running candidates. If the perception that allowing them to maintain or expand control will further allow the DSA to gain a better fold hold, the populace will swing the other way.

Garrett's, I make sure to grab some whenever I'm going through O'Hare or Midway.

If the Dems can deliver some affordability back into the average Joe's wallet, 2028 will stay strong D. If the next two years allows the DSA to run rampant, 2028 will be up for grabs again.

Should have known better than to thank Snoofy

commercial aircraft are actually quite bad faraday cages for an EMP, they max out at about lightning.

#56 "I want experience in the cockpit"

Only one way to get experience.

I don't think it's a mandate for many of the lefts policies, but it is actually a rebuke of Donald Trump. The problem is they'll take it as a mandate and go nuts like the republicans did when they interpreted it as a mandate.

These elections aren't mandates, we keep electing the opposite of what's in office at the moment because neither R's or D's can behave like adults once they're in office.

Thanks for the more context. It was an actual question and appreciate a real response.

and in the world of the left sexuality, gender, etc... are all just social constructs and they have their own 'pedophiles are just born that way' contingency too.

So the view from the middle says this could go either way... and the mask is questionable for it to be maga.

still feels up in the air enough to make the headline questionable without more supporting evidence.

I'm not clicking the link to this story on my work laptop... But from the description, it was a mask wearing person in the audience asking the question? and you think they are maga?

If I dip into stereotypes... maga and mask wearing aren't really sympatico

Please explain how we know this person is maga

The number of internet sleuths who "know" this was a missile and not a plane is alarming... so much stupidity out there.

"You're a moron who thinks he's a genius." should replace the tagline of Red Meat for Yellow Dogs on the DR.

A little behind the times here... The black league director called the police on the parents for being disruptive.

Nice job falling for the narrative that the Karen white parents called the police on the kid for being to good. Ever think that if a story is just too good and fits a narrative sooo well that it just might not be being presented properly?

I live in MA, it didn't matter who I voted for... Kamala was going to win the state. So I voted third party to show disgust with both major parties.

It worked to a degree, the Dems definitely noticed a downturn in the total numbers cast for them. If both parties start to notice a down turn after some of these elections they may be forced to stop putting up such crappy candidates.

Obviously that's a luxury of circumstances of living in a state that is basically pre-decided.

It's so hard to comprehend that I didn't vote for or support Trump. It really is so hard to imagine people who aren't completely ideology driven huh?
