@Candace21437099@RobertMSterling Do you refuse to drive your car once a light comes on on the dash? Or do you trust your mechanic to find it and fix it? “Mechanical problem” doesn’t mean “catastrophic failure that we can’t do anything about.” It could just mean “change brake pads.”
@callme_Chari@CSM79RV7@GregAbbott_TX For every CA, NY, IL or MD, there’s a FL, NC, IN, or even Texas, which already underrepresents Dems in congress when compared against the vote totals for president. And this action would make Texas even less representative of its people.
@CSM79RV7@GregAbbott_TX@grok what percentage of New york, Illinois, and California voted Republican in the last election, and how many seats do they have? Are they underrepresented?
@stonedconservat @CSM79RV7@GregAbbott_TX@grok@grok, run the same analysis on Indiana, North Carolina, Florida, and Texas with its current map, but with the question of whether Democrats are fairly represented.
@jules4u11@AdamKinzinger It was created by freed American slaves and their capital is named after an American president. The POTUS should know something about Liberia.
@PNW_working_mom The problem isn’t fireworks themselves. It’s that they’re now everywhere, in the hands of every idiot who sets them off with little regard to safety, much less courtesy to others.
@The_Astronaut18@Kurt_Steiner Second, it’s specifically based on new constructions starts in 2022, so the pre-existing housing base is not reflected at all. If an area was all basements up until recently, but has now switched to mostly slabs, that’s not shown here at all.
@The_Astronaut18@Kurt_Steiner There are a lot of caveats in this graphic. First is that it shows percentages across broad geographic ranges, so it’s completely feasible that there are local concentrated exceptions.
@jetusnr@SCOTUSblog It’s pretty well-established that “no infringement” doesn’t mean “no regulation,” it just sets a fairly high bar for what is reasonable regulation.
@Freeplane24@SethAbramson How is someone expressing a critical opinion about science funding corrupt? Not everything you disagree with is “corruption.”
@next_iteration @SeanCasten Standing up with your team taking about those three things is *very* different from five written bullets to some faceless email box to be read by someone who has no clue what your job is.
@Jimbo4881113333@SeanCasten You’re lying, or at least stretching the truth on that last one. Everyone has periodic 1:1’s with their immediate boss, but no one is sending contextless written accomplishment bullets to the CEO or his consultant for evaluation.
@TheBamaJedi@MalwareJake This^^^
The correct initial response is to summarize what you know about the basic principles of each camp in the debate without advocating for any of them. It shows that you not only actually listened to the question…
