- banned conversion therapy
- red flag laws for guns
- universal background checks for guns
- automatic voter registration
- free public college (under $80k)
- ban on PFAS (forever chemicals)
- $2.2 billion increase in k-12 school funding
- sectoral bargaining for nursing home workers

Only two other times in my life have I felt this level of disappointment: that time when covid didn't kill Trump and the day McDonald's discontinued Fish McBites.

@punished_cait I would not be alive today if I had asked my wife, postpartum, to get a paternity test.

@alexhaedda @SpookyCandle @punished_cait Yes.

And when there is only one set of footprints, it was then that Jesus got up early to walk before you could shovel just to mess with you. What a goofball, that guy!

Not like a massive fan of H-Cav or anything, but they just didn't even give him one decent movie as Supes. It can't be that hard to make one good Supes movie. You can make the guy timetravel by spinning the world backwards and still end up with a good movie. It's not that hard.

@smyrna_photon @MatthewAdelste1 @abcampbell @bryan_caplan If you don't think unnecessarily causing pain to others is in and of itself morally objectionable, what other measure or criterium do you use for thinking something is good or bad?

@SolarxPvP @MatthewAdelste1 @bryan_caplan [he does not do that first thing you said]
