  • We keep the lids down on our toilets to keep the dogs and cats out of them. Never seen mold growing on them at all. We have plastic, slow-close lids though. Maybe regular lids are more prone to that?

  • Hey now! Schumer isn't Israel's man. He belongs to the Baileys. A nice Jewish, New Jersey, Republican couple!

  • but what if I really like the independent treasurer running but also recognize the importance of unseating the republicans in current power and want democratic nominees for everything else?

    Well, I'd suggest voting in the democratic primary and selecting a bad candidate for the treasurer and the good candidates for the other offices. If you're lucky, others will vote the same way in the primary and the bad treasurer candidate you voted for will appear on the general election ballot along with the good democratic candidates for all the other offices.

    This means that your preferred independent candidate would have a better chance of winning the office when the general election rolls around as will your preferred candidates for the other offices.

  • Because primary elections are about party candidates that will be supported by the particular party in the general election. If you want an independent state legislature, that needs to happen in the general election where you are choosing from all the candidates.

  • You don’t vote out fascism

    This brings to mind an appropriate quote.

    “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” – Edmund Burke

    You may not be able to vote out fascism. But you can certainly let it in by not voting.

  • Yeah, might have found a way to swing republican voters to his side.

  • Fyi, if your state (like Tennessee) has open primaries, you could choose to vote in one to support their worst candidate. Both major parties ask their voters do this sometimes to improve their odds in the general election.

  • Well, yeah, that's kind of obvious. In primary elections you are deciding which candidate in a given party is going to be their candidate in the general election. It would make no sense for them to have independent candidates on their primary ballot. Since independent candidates, by definition, will not be a party's candidate.

  • I think you mean 2nd Amendment, 1st is free speech. The 2nd is right to bear arms. But you're otherwise 100% correct. If I were in the district/state he would have my vote. If we can put a pedophile in the White House, we can surely put this guy in Congress.

  • I love me some Sam Axe. Such a fun character.

  • "It almost feels like these big corporations can get away with anything..."

    Almost? Been living under a rock?

  • On supported vehicles, starting the car brings up a banner on the Control Display, and tapping it launches a full-screen Spider-Man animation with music and ambient lighting effects. BMW says the feature is available on suitably equipped cars built after July 2020 and running BMW Operating System 7, 8, 8.5, 9, or X.

    Ah, I see. It's a feature! I'm surprised they're not trying to charge a subscription fee to get ads on your dashboard.

  • Aside from the whole No-Shit-Sherlock aspect to this...

    The strikes have killed at least 218 people, according to ABC News' count.

    The Pentagon has spent over $820 million on the campaign

    Really? More than 3.75 million dollars per "enemy" killed would be a complete boondoggle even if they were valid targets.

  • OMFG!!!11! THE DEEP STATE GOT TO HIM!!!

    /s just in case...

  • Wall cats? Here's Diana snoozing on a bookcase while Cupid... well, while Cupid is Cupid.

  • Yes, the same KY that elected a Democrat as governor.

  • I think that’s generous. I think the actual driving emotion behind this was Trump’s desire to...

    ...compensate for his tiny little mushroom cap by proving that he could order people killed.

    I know. Same thing. I just like my phrasing better.
