#9 where the t-f did you find that big of a broad brush?

Parents were reprimanded from reading from a book during a school committee meeting for the content being inappropriate for the meeting. The content described to one young boy how to give a bj to another young boy.

1 hard example... please defend it.

Given the population density, and the influence of remote work... Are they even going to be able to fill the building?

*won

reason #1765 why Trump one. The moderate left, middle, right are just sick of this.

out of real concern... Has Tony posted since the election? Is he okay?

The Liberal panties twisting continues

I didn't see this coming, but I bet he did.

So not wanting aid money to not go to waste on poor nutrition food is cruel? No talk about reducing snap benefits or anything... just don't spend it on ----, and that's cruel?

So giving a homeless guy a sandwich to make sure he doesn't spend the $5 bucks I'd have given him on booze is actually cruel in your mind?

#22 Yeah they are obviously crushing life and making all the good choices. Not to say that hard times can't hit anyone, but to claim that snickers and sugar water jugs might be wasting tax payer aid money is ridiculous.

Regardless of what you think there is plenty of information out there indicating that the landscape of twitter is much more balanced than the doom and gloom squad makes it out to be here.

I grabbed the wrong link, there is a 2024 version that shows similar numbers.

according to the pew research center, Democrats outnumber repbulicans.

Legallydumb whiffs again

#4/#5

I'd rather have all the negatives that come with unfettered free speech than to give power to any entity to be the sole arbiter of what is acceptable.

I'd also rather be able to see/hear what the crazies are doing/saying as to easily by able to identify them.

Have fun in the echo chamber though.

I'm sure it will be fun next election when everyone on Bluesky is absolutely shocked to find that what they've been hearing and discussing is not where the rest of the country is.

You have to deal with what you might find distasteful to keep a true view of what's around you.

Musk moved it away from being a left wing and gov/corporate approved echo chamber... We can't have that.

"Oh wait, we want to legislate other people's choices, leave ours alone."

The simple mindset... smh

No one is looking to legislate someone's choice here. They are looking to put boundaries on what is able to be purchased with benefit money.

Acknowledging that someone is in need of aid, but not allowing them to waste the aid on candy and crap is not legislating their choices. You have to be half retarded to think it is.

I remember being a cashier in back in HS/College days. I was amazed at how many candy bars, individual sodas, single serving bags of chips, etc... I rang up for people paying with assistance benefits.

I don't begrudge anyone a snickers, but a mountain of them?

How about some veggies, rice, fruit, and meats?

Did Boaz take a lucidity pill today?

This sounds like it introduces more problems than it solves, it would seem the best answer is a combination of the two techs.

"Also puzzles me how anyone can "meticulously write" on a 9mm shell casing."

Is there any other way to write on a shell casing? Seems like meticulous work no matter what.

the party of "Joy" out in full force here I see.

Literally just had lunch with my own mom and we were discussing a similar topic.

Basically the we've gone too far with the mass labelling of toxic masculinity and taking the role of Dad's away. Generally, and not to broad brush too much, Mom's are the consolers and the Dad's are the "rub some dirt" on it parent.

Kids need both... Broad brush but the moms are the I don't want the kids to walk to school parent, and the dads are the suck it up and walk we did it when we were kids parent.

Now we minimize the Dad and call it toxic masculinity and we infantilize the kids.

This mom has it right, and the rest of society needs to stop clutching their pearls for her.

It's about time we put more laws around marriage... martial? Never mind.

A different view on this is it certainly takes away some of the "he's racist" ammo ;)

#24 I wonder how many doom and gloom nay sayers were against the Apollo project?

I'm not saying anything is a guarantee, but we have to have the will to try these things.
