I like having Siri in my car when she works. Like when my phone properly wirelessly connects. But when it doesn’t, I hate it, and would be better without it.

Also why the hell can’t CarPlay use the radio, when the car has a radio. Why can’t those two things talk to each other. Fucking dumb.

Better fire management of national parks. Time to start doing controlled burns.

Zoning reforms sound great.

One of my biggest issues with increasing housing is that many Americans store their wealth in their house. Home ownership is the retirement plan for many, or the generational wealth plan. So how can we build housing without devaluing existing housing?

The answer is to build more multi-family housing, which doesn’t really compete with single family housing for price. The former is mostly for rent, while the later is for owning.

Unironically hope Kamala watergated him and gets away with it

Not sure what too diverse means but it looks like you were right

Oh my god there’s more than one person in America??? And they can have different thoughts and opinions? What the fuck?

Any policy can disproportionately affect the birth rate of one group vs another. Is improving abortion access eugenics? Is incentivizing having children via the tax code eugenics because those incentives are stronger for some groups compared to others? Is for-profit healthcare eugenics because it makes it more difficult for poor folks to safely have children? Are fossil fuels eugenics because they lead to higher infant mortality in poorer industrial areas?

No, none of those things are eugenics

I agree.

By that argument, the lower rate of reproduction is western countries is eugenics, since it’s a consequence of policy (education).

Actually one of the best things that poor folks can do to escape generational poverty, is to have fewer kids. That way, kids inherit a larger share of their grandparents assets, and more can be passed down. Generational land ownership, for example, is extremely powerful. Fewer children per family also lowers the financial burden of education, enabling better education for comparatively fewer people. That’s not eugenics, it’s smart family planning.

I think you should get more votes if you DONT have children. And the government should give out free sterilizations, and if you can prove you’re sterilized you get to take paternity leave twice.

Fantastic point.

Literally any straight white man center-right democrat born after 1968 would wipe the floor with trump.

And before anyone jumps down my throat, that’s not what I want. I want president Cortez. But presidents are chosen by money and by about 10,000 generically stupid swing voters in Michigan and Pennsylvania.

That’s fine. It’s better than “trump got shot” (did he actually get shot or was it shards from the teleprompter?).

Step aside

Have someone interesting and new step in

Suck all the media attention away from trump by talking about new guy

If my country was at war with another, of course I’d be afraid of their supporters

If I was Israeli I may be afraid of someone wearing a Palestinian flag tshirt. Also the other way around. Seems reasonable.

Because it’s prescribed, it’s approved by Medicaid. If they approved eating grass as a treatment for thyroid cancer, I’d also be pissed. People trust their healthcare system to help them, because not everyone can be an expert. So it’s reasonable to expect Medicaid to only approve things for payment if they promote health. The cheeseburgers in question do not.

Similar experience. The food was amazing, the louvre and notre damme were crowded, musee dorsay was great, streets were gross and grifters everywhere.

Then I went to Kyoto. It was everything Paris is supposed to be. Absolutely amazing place. Incredible French food actually, wasn’t expecting that.

Yea it’s totally insane. You’re letting them lend out your money, paying is crazy

Short term rentals would be fine if companies like Airbnb weren’t getting a cut. Like they existed on Craigslist and as actual bead-and-breakfasts way before airbnb et al existed.
