@churchofeve@ProgPro @bushfindsjesus I was gonna argue and then saw your top few posts, nevermind radfem bitch keep yo blood pressure up queen, that heart ain’t gonna attack itself!
@JayWski@DerCryptaxis@PleasantKenobi Yeah I’m all for “accessible to play, expensive to bling out”
Coming from a Yugioh mindset, I’m already jealous at the fact that your cards come in foil AND non-foil (which already helps with the price issues a bit), plus all the extra products with reprints/alt arts/etc.
@Joan_ofSnark @IfyNwadiwe Better watch out or I’ll post Yugioh cards and lament the lack of art leaving the little box before falling asleep trying to read my card effects (I stopped after seeing the word negate)
@shycollie @JohnCarltonKing From what I’ve gathered throughout the thread, some people are arguing that they should have a vote that’s weighted more because they own land and thus “care” more about the local governance and whatnot? I’m not sure how much of it is “there��s a US election in 3 days” posting tho
@ChunkaDunks@thedog3464 @JohnCarltonKing The original comment was moreso in response to the “maintenance and repairs are expensive” mainly because I’ve also worked construction gigs for the student rental slumlords in town and they’re even worse about maintenance
Point is I think renters should have equal votes
@ChunkaDunks@thedog3464 @JohnCarltonKing Oh we talked it over with him and worked it out, part is like half the cost of a new oven so he’s just gonna replace it fully eventually, but other stuff comes first (roof, pump for pool, electrical work)
Not ideal but he’s also charging us well below market rent for this place
@PleasantKenobi I’d wager it has something to do with Epic considering there were multiple crossovers with Smite having MTG characters so it’s clearly not an issue on that end
@S_S_Sanchori @JohnCarltonKing Sounds like a community forum/town hall type of thing where everyone’s allowed to come up and speak on issues/proposed bills and amendments
@markburns4RE @JohnCarltonKing @meriboston5 Part of the argument is that homeowners have “invested” more in the community and are thus entitled to more weight to their votes/opinions
It’s relevant because based on the data they’re actually technically paying less than the average renter so that point would be moot
@shycollie @JohnCarltonKing No one in their right mind is trying to argue that a renter should get to control everything about the property they live on, but they DO live in that city/town/wherever and should be considered as such in matters such as voting and representation; apparently this is unpopular?
@shycollie @JohnCarltonKing “Just as much say” (in the community), that fragment was following the other sentence where the community was the subject, and thus should be read as an addendum to that topic
“Renters are just as much a part of the community and should have just as much say (in the community)”
@HaythamKenway99 @JohnCarltonKing Or I’ll buy a home at some point, this just seems like y’all want poor people’s votes to count less ngl
I’ve lived in my city my entire life and have been renting here for almost a decade now, why should my vote count less because I wasn’t born rich/in the 70s
@mufc_micky@WooWooShawty@1n44n6@arrowsmithlesl1 @JohnCarltonKing So by that logic if I own two homes my vote should count more right? Because I’ve invested more in the community? And it scales from there? So eventually, with enough capital, I can eventually buy the city and declare myself ruler, due to my incredible voting power?
@bcmcconnel @JohnCarltonKing @PaintIt000000 Well for 1.8 of those decades you didn’t pay taxes, the schools DO teach the basics, they just also teach other things if there’s enough support for the curriculum from the student body
I took philosophy in HS because there was a teacher licensed for it and enough ppl for 1class
@athenamount Just chiming in here, I get intrusive thoughts at work, I’m walking around handing out checks/papers to everyone in the office and my brain will go “what if you just full force punched (name) in the face? I think you should do it” and I have to tell myself to stfu to clear it
@patientzero0001@TonyPajama Yeah, but call it like it is?
You called it terrible UI preventing people from clicking on the correct candidate, and I agree with that
OP called it voter fraud, no, it’s just evidence of the fact that Kentucky doesn’t have good graphic designers/programmers (I’m shocked)
@RadRubes @Es123t2124 @RackServer9@esjesjesj@brett68kriebel@harrycallihan87 Oh nevermind I went through your profile you’re just here for election bullshit Nevermind carry on with your yapping, I’m not getting paid enough to keep giving you headspace at work
