Seems petty on the surface, but doesnt that leave the democrats able to apply for unemployment, while the Republicans can’t because they resigned?

Santa really needed the work!

You dont know if your tinnitus is getting worse or theres radiation fungus around

Theres more to do at those roaming carnivals that set up in a parking lot.

I didnt realize that. I used one and the room it was in still cooled down considerably.

Running a dehumidifier can also help lower the temperature. Water takes a much longer time to heat up/cool down than air does. If you remove the warm moisture from the air and then open the windows and let the cooler 20-25 degree air inside, it should cool the house faster.

Its a racist system, so they didnt have to pay the emancipated slaves who were working in the industry.

That is how much the restaurant pays in wages, however the employees are guaranteed $7.25/hour. If wages +tips is less than $7.25/hour, the restaurant is required to make up the difference.

In the US, servers are guaranteed minimum wage as well. Unfortunately that wage is crazy know low at $7.25/hour.

Its the Constitution limiting his power. Legally, congress has the power to declare a war. We’ve just been ignoring that as a society for a while.

Guess we’ll need the Ministry of Silly Walks!

How do you see the notes? I just see the headline as the post title. I might be missing a lemmy feature

It’s the Cheeto dialect, very few speakers. But they are the best… nobody speaks like they do and nobody ever will again.

If you don’t wash behind your ears, bacteria will grow and cause it to smell. By their logic, they should be chopping off ears as well.

The purpose of circumcision is to make maturation and sex less pleasurable as it removes about 1/3 of sensory nerves and meant to make it more difficult to masturbate because you can’t just pull on tight skin. You can still perform the basic acts of sex and masturbation, but it’s not as pleasurable. Likewise, one can still hear without ears even if it’s not as good as those with intact ears.

Just goes to show how insane these people are.

Just tell everyone to leave their signs at home, clean up after themselves, and walk the capitol grounds and/or the surrounding areas chanting/yelling phrases in unison. Hard to drown out the unified voices of 1,000 people. That way they don’t use state resources, and don’t set up any structures, materials, or displays.

I think they use covenant eyes, which sees every web page that you view and analyzes text and pictures on every web page. When there is something flagged as sexual on the web page, it sends a report to your “accountability partner”. Not sure exactly what’s on the report, but safe to assume it shows web address, date, and time that the web page was loaded.

Huge security breach to be on the Speaker’s computer.

Hopefully the fact that the republican party impeached Paxton will help turn people away from voting for him. He also famously committed fraud while in office. Even if they don’t vote for Talarico, less voters for Paxton is a good thing.

The laws for POA would have to change to allow for such a union. There would have to be some kind of protection for wills as well, because there are going to be fights from people against the LGBTQ community.

If all marriages were dissolved and became unions, that might work. Otherwise, it would be a separate but equal thing.

I’ve heard too many people say that a 15 minute drive to the polls that have at most a 10 minute wait to agree with this view.

Polls, in TX at least, are open for at least 9 hours a day the first week of voting, at least 12 hours the next, and at least 12 hours on election day. There’s plenty of time to go before or after work for the majority of people, sure there are exceptions, but those exceptions don’t make up 60% of the population.

Paperwork didn’t help the partners of AIDS victims who were kept out of the hospital and heard of their partner’s passing via the obituaries and then kicked out of their house.

Even today, there are families who would separate sane sex partners and do the same awful things. Marriage guarantees rights, paperwork does nothing to stop the horrible people in our lives that would lash out at the first chance.
