Fix the electoral college by either abolishing it entirely (personal choice) or fixing the house to properly represent the population such that the senate doesn't cause an oversized share of electoral reps. The Wyoming Rule is one option.

We could also just go back to something like one rep per 100,000 population in a state, which would in turn make the house have 3,000 members. This sounds wild until you realize Parliament in the U.K. has 650 members... representing a population roughly 1/5 ours.

Bold of them to think the coffee and donuts would be free under Trump.

Unrelated one- https://www.neowin.net/amp/ublock-origin-lite-maker-ends-firefox-store-support-slams-mozilla-for-hostile-reviews/

The two in I use are for twitter-

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/blue-blocker/ - Blocked in Firefox since after 0.3.5, which makes it useless since 0.3.5 was prior to the forced change to x, iirc.

https://github.com/dimdenGD/OldTwitter - Removed from Firefox entirely. Still available on Chrome.

Combined those two make the site look like old twitter, lets me save videos with a right click, and blocks twitter blue users automatically.

I'm not disregarding anything. My wording was very precise.

I'm only using it atm for extensions that are, ironically enough, blocked on Firefox.... Though thats only one website in particular.

Not everyone is ignorant there, just enough of a voting majority to absolutely fuck themselves in a wide array of ways, and by extension, fuck up the rest of the country to a small extent.

Clearly he should have slammed him.

Understandable if you grew up playing CoD/Halo, or even follow scrubquotes on twitter.

lol packing boxes at Amazon being skilled labor in comparison to the burger dudes. Like, my dude, you're about half a step above the dude putting a burger together then packing a bag with it, and I'm being generous.

Same but in my defense I only ever go to the music tab on spotify because I have no interest in any podcasts.

Personal reddit conspiracy theory as to why image hosting is on site:

  1. r/fatpeoplehate exists, does its thing (hating fat people)
  2. They get some images removed from imgur, the image host du juor of reddit at the time.
  3. They go on the offensive and start harassing fat imgur workers.
  4. The subreddit gets banned.
  5. Under a year later, reddit puts in image uploading.

My theory is that 3 resulted in imgur hitting up reddit and threatening to block the site if they didn't reign in fatpeoplehate. Reddit did, by 4, because the alternative was no images and that would absolutely fuck reddit up. This in turn leads to 5 to prevent that powerplay again.

I'm sure many people will be going to jail.

 

tl;dr: They aren't using as good peppers any more
