That's a common misconception, they are actually named after the famous jazz instrument the saxophone.

If she couldn't win the primary, how can she win the general? Not like AIPAC will just stop influencing the election.

The SpaceX rocket unfortunately isn't powerful enough to launch anything into the sun, but yes.

Definitely, my hope is that if that doesn't happen this time, the momentum will carry forward to the next election as well and the electorate will see that the Dems can actually make life better for people. But it's a dream, I know that.

Yes, that's why it needs to be a landslide, we need enough political power to actually enact change.

I really hope this is gonna be a landslide election and it's possible for the Dems to take a page out of Waltz' book and pass a whole bunch of meaningful legislation, which will help carry on support for the Dems next election as well. But oh well, I might be too optimistic.

W Bush didn't win the election due to how the electoral college works, he won it due to the corrupt supreme court. Not only did he lose the popular vote, he lost the EC as well.

Probably not, but the people who just got a job maybe would.

I mean if a state removed the TSA and spent the money on something else, surely they could use the money to create as many jobs as they removed but in an actual useful field.

Foot-pound is not a unit of pressure, ignoring the fact that it's a stupid non-metric unit.

Neither should I tbh. Not that I turn into a racist or anything, I just end up sending random unfunny shit in old group chats and get in arguments with people online.

 

I originally posted this on the other site back when I took the picture, and it resulted in a lot of confused comments, especially from Americans, eventually getting removed by overzealous mods. Either way, I promise you that this date does not exist, and has never existed.

 

I love the filter settings you have, but it would be nice if I could for example mute a specific NSFW instance on one account while keeping it non muted on my ahem, alt account.
