They could get rid of FPTP for this tomorrow if they wanted, but that would admit that it's a shitty voting system.

Aren't they also building a dumb gondola to the new Clippers arena, too?

Even more amazing when you realize that there is a train line that runs within a half mile of home plate and there isn't a stop, much less a pedestrian pathway.

LA is truly cooked.

I remember the time M'Lord blessed me with his magnanimous generosity - we peasants truly do not deserve such a great and perfect divine ruler! in c/chapotraphouse@hexbear.net

Man. Only a $40k mortgage. Wild.

Biden insisting that his way is the only way that works is familiar to anyone who's ever dealt with a cranky old co-worker or relative in c/politics@hexbear.net

Alternate lore universe:

Thousands of swing-district Democrats must be sacrificed every day to sustain the half-life of Joe Biden on his Golden Throne, so that he may maintain the Genocidinomican.

I had birthdays at McDonald's.

They had an indoor, air-conditioned play place, which was incredible for us kids in the south during the summer.

Are any of these guys anything like the GOAT Sankara, or are they just aligning with countries other than the West?

Hochul's torpedoing congestion pricing in lower Manhattan (archive.is)
 

I knew it wasn't going to happen, because libs refuse to ever do anything good, but I figured it would be Adams, not Hochul.

Ryan Gosling's character wears an IATSE shirt for about half of The Fall Guy (hexbear.net)
 

It was a cute movie. Not sure why it's bombing.

Dems will never do what it takes to win (twitter.com)
 

Context: Trump's lawyers are in front of the Supreme Court arguing that presidents cannot be prosecuted for any crimes they commit while in office.

Who knows how the Calvinball refs will decide this one, but if they go Trump's way, Biden has literally no excuse not to assassinate his political rivals.

Today in :let-them-fight:, Oregon Republicans/talk radio hosts fighting over who is allowing Chinese billionaires to build solar farms (www.opb.org)
 

"You're owned by China!"

"That's disinformation, like the DemocRATs use against Presinald Trunt!"

Did y'all know they're building a monorail line under the Panama Canal? (www.railjournal.com)
 

Wild.

I just found out about "balcony solar" which is, by and large, illegal in the US (web.archive.org)
 

Apparently this is all the rage in Germany (and China) where you can buy a kit at the supermarket for 500-600EUR and then you simply hang the solar panels over your balcony and plug them in to a wall outlet to reduce your net usage.

I was trying to do research on why we don't have this in the US and it doesn't seem like there are any particularly good reasons for it other than sclerotic response to "new" technology.

Seems like an incredibly cool idea to make apartment dwelling even more sustainable.

Not mentioned in the title: he was snorting confiscated fent.

Also this is a cop from the town all the Proud Boys who came to Portland in 2020 live in.

Anyway, happy Friday! officer-down
