I watched a Perfect Union video on YT a few weeks ago about the minimum wage for gig workers/delivery workers in NYC.
People worked so hard to get it approved, and this douche has been undermining it since it was passed. I think he has even made changes to it after the fact in ways that are not legal.
That’s all I knew about him before, so this headline doesn’t really surprise me.
This is why anything with “for liberty” or “right to” in the name immediately makes me suspicious.
I wish more people realized this. “Right to Farm” was just passed in Texas by voters by a wide margin - long term it just removes accountability from agricultural giants and even emboldens them to push out small farmers.
It was advertised as being for small farmers 🤦
Agreed. You can buy the displays that are marketed to businesses and usually come without all of the invasive smart features.
They definitely cost more on average, but they’re also built to run more often or constantly, and hold up far better. They’re even a lot more customizable.
You can buy some that come with slots where you put in a raspberry pi or another computer of your choice, instead of whatever OS that comes with smart tvs.
At this point, I’m starting to regularly check if there are “for business customers” options available when I need something, because the options for regular consumers are getting so bad with all this data hoarding and ad pushing.
I believe there’s also some dashboard touchscreens you can separately buy that use CarPlay.
So for now, using one of those instead of the system built into the car is a potential way to circumvent automakers that are keeping your data/texts.
At least if you want the benefits of using a dashboard touchscreen that your phone connects to.
This is why it’s important that we continue to give tax breaks to the criminals and subsidize their operations for specific projects that would help everyone.
But again, we must make sure to not cause any undue burden on the criminals by making those funds conditional, or regulating how the projects are carried out. Otherwise they will be forced to rob us further, and who could blame them?
Do you still have the link to that post?
Yeah there’s even videos on YouTube that break it down really well and go in-depth while keeping it at a 5th grade reading level and under 3 minutes.
I could definitely see ranked-choice being intentionally over-complicated in writing if someone wanted to undermine it, but with enough people/sources sharing simple video resources on it, it’s a method that could be easily understood and adopted by the public.
Toss in all the barriers to even get a third party candidate on the ballot

No, my doctor just had me take Benadryl to see if the reaction started to calm down. When 12 hours later it had, he had me stop taking Paxlovid completely and I didn’t finish the pack.
I know anaphylaxis is definitely a reported reaction of Paxlovid, but I have no idea how prevalent it is.
This page on Paxlovid by the NIH mentions it under Monitoring and Adverse Effects.
I’m allergic to Paxlovid; taking it makes my neck and head swell up to where I look like Rocky Balboa after a fight and my neck feels like a giant tree trunk.
This isn’t important, but it’s probably the first time I’ve seen an article about Paxlovid since that happened, so it’s all I could think about for a minute.
I guess I’m not surprised that this is happening with one of the few very essential drugs that isn’t in the list of medications that congress is negotiating prices down on for medicare.
Of course pharmaceutical giants use any opening, opportunity, or loophole to exploit those who are sick. Disgusting.
I don’t really care that I’m getting downvoted, but I am surprised?
I probably could have given more context, but I made this comment in good faith and genuinely think this will be an issue for him given the last several days.
Even if the majority of the country is in support of supporting Israel at this time, the IDF is committing verifiable war crimes against civilians, which the UN is criticizing. Supporting that both in words and funding is going to make it hard for a lot of people to vote for Biden who would have otherwise just to avoid any chance of Trump getting elected.
There’s been pro-Palestine protests all across the country this weekend. I’m seeing a lot of anger for him in other areas online from people who claim to have voted for him; more than I’ve seen since he was elected. I’ll be interested to see how support for him is in polls and surveys in a few weeks.
I could be wrong, but I think this will be one of his biggest hurdles next year when running for reelection.
He’s going to need it after openly supporting a genocide that a lot of Americans are waking up to.
Also I learned how ranked choice voting works from a 2-3 minute youtube video, and it was explained in a way that middle schoolers could understand.
