@goddek Plenty of people in Australia have guns, they’re just regulated better here - probably why they were using the weapons they did, and didn’t kill even more people with more powerful guns. We don’t live under constant threat of mass shootings, no one takes a gun to the beach.
@insatiablevine@Polymarket Taking more people out of an economy reduces demand for goods and services. Reduced demand means less production and therefore less jobs. Immigration is good for economies, blaming everything on immigration is lazy.
@MeghanMcCain A complete and utter show of ignorance about ASD. Your (not so subtle) endorsement of these conspiracy theories is harmful. Stop it. If you ever want to talk to a parent of an ASD3 child, message me. It’s not my fault, and he’s perfect despite RFKs shitty opinions.
@8WithaTiara We’re saying that we are witnessing the collapse of America. Trump is a fool and an arrogant bully. Pretty much all the worst American stereotypes wrapped up in one bloated orange man.
@NancyMace Violence is never ok. Perhaps you can rethink some of your rhetoric that contributes to vile threats and violence against the LGBTQ community. Transgender people are four times more likely to be victims of violence.
@TonySeruga She had a successful career - lawyer, academic, author, etc before taking office. She’s been making money for a long time, she’s 75. Honestly if she’s made that kinda money for so long and wasn’t worth a lot, I’d assume she’s crap with money. I’m assuming you like capitalism?
@theonarosemary@emre_mayo@StatisticUrban 400,000+ children have experienced gun violence at school in the last 25 years. There have been 76 shootings at schools or college campuses so far this year. Gun violence is the leading cause of death for children aged 1-17. That’s a pretty meaningful risk.
@NancyMace How damaging do you think it will be for women and girls who don’t look feminine enough to be kicked out of bathrooms?
What about transgender men? Which bathroom are you comfortable with them using?
@unusual_whales Isn’t it more cost effective to have less physical office space? And measure employees on performance indicators rather than minutes sitting at a desk? That’s how most successful businesses operate and isn’t the whole point of this shit show to run gov like a business?
@fwjackets@Qamarxaji11@RonFilipkowski Assuming that a majority white group represents merit is a pretty race-based view that assumes they are qualified without much verification. If the group was mostly black, they’d likely be labeled “DEI” and their qualifications scrutinised.

Abortion laws that outlaw abortion from the time of conception would also outlaw the destruction of embryos (which are post-conception). If IVF was exempt that would kinda be hypocritical, but maybe that’s on brand for the “pro-life” movement
@opkimistic@Jazzy_Charrisse@JessicaValenti If you believe abortion should be illegal from the moment of conception (the goal of anti abortion advocates - personhood for embryos) IVF becomes out of reach for most people. It’s also too risky - if an embryo is compromised or destroyed, clinics face wrongful death charges.
@MacDoesIt Well it’s broken down to a weekly amount, you can pay it weekly or monthly or whatever you want, as long as you don’t fall behind. Until recently I had tenants in a property, I didn’t care how often they paid as long as they kept up the rent reasonably well.
@Okie_Rancher@cebaceps@EmmaScott WWIII? I’d argue thats more likely under Trump. If he leaves NATO & implements an insular agenda, it will destabilize the world. Like it or not, a global trade fosters peace. Isolationism brings conflict.
@Okie_Rancher@cebaceps@EmmaScott So America voted in Trump because cost of living, and the solution is to raise cost of goods even higher and kick out migrant workers and make farmed goods more expensive? Is he also going to get the govt to determine what companies can produce? All sounds kinda communist to me.
@cutecats_____@elonmusk Working fine?? All I get now is a constant stream of Elon posts and ads about tractors. I live in a city and have not chosen to follow Elon.
