What are you even talking about?!

Fauci led the response, he didn't cause covid

The methods of salmonella mitigation, storing eggs from vaccinated chickens unwashed at room temp or storing washed eggs in the refrigerator, have roughly equal outcomes. There are still many egg-related salmonella outbreaks across Europe each year, roughly equivalent to the US. One method is not superior to another as far as outcomes, they're just two different systems that already exist and therefore are unlikely to change without a good reason

The research shows both methods are equally effective at controlling salmonella, afaik

If you think solving climate change requires a switch to renewable energy and don't see the difference between US Democratic and Republican Admins, you're not approaching this from a place of rationality

I think this post is about climate change, which is absolutely a global problem

You can ask "what if?" all you want, but that doesn't make your imagined alternative real. The news media calls states when they're confident in the outcome. Show me somewhere they got it wrong

News orgs call states based on a combination of polls and vote counts. States that poll significantly in one direction or the other are typically called early in that direction because the outcome is not in doubt

Those rail workers who got the sick leave they wanted after the Biden Admin continued to fight for them?

Ok doomer. My wife and I are both solidly millennials who bought a house in the 2010s for $230K then refinanced in 2021 at the lowest interest rate, so we have a very affordable payment. Interest rates will go back down again, and home prices in my city are well off their 2023 peak and continuing to trend down

I want the US government to have your friends' backs when they want to unionize and bargain for higher wages and a pension, which is why I'm voting Harris/Walz

[–] protist@mander.xyz 26 points 10 months ago (4 children)

Having a net worth of $330K only means you're an older person who owns a house and has paid at least most of it off. Also there isn't a single plumber who's worth their salt who's making $13/hr, my man. Either your friends are awful at their work or you're lying

Because he has pensions? The entire point of pensions are to give working-class people the kind of income Tom Walz has right now. I'm going to vote for the candidates fighting for union rights and against the candidates who think employees who try to organize should be fired.
