Well we’re gonna overshoot the warm period but I can offer the increase in pagan practices as part of the cultural zeitgeist

He’s just mad pence is worse at it.

Also that would be an amendment.

Furthermore he’s the sort of person who’d lose his shit upon learning FDR couldn’t walk.

Yeah he’s as much a hillbilly as I am, except I actually lived in urban Kentucky for like a year once and sometimes date actual Appalachians. He’s just some guy who got into a good school and ditched the rust belt for the coasts, which I don’t judge, it’s a good decision and one I wish I’d studied enough for. But a lot of those folks build their identity on being from back here and it gets weird.

There’s this coastal idea of Ohio vs the realit. I think Ron DeSantis showed it best where they keep trying to act like Ohio is this salt of the earth conservative place, and like yeah it’s lost its swing state status, but it isn’t conservative like Miami or Orange County, it’s conservative like folks who haven’t met people different from them. It’s conservative but we love weed and abortion is contentious not hated. And also Columbus, Cleveland, and Cincinnati aren’t conservative. Please coastal conservatives stop moving to Ohio cities and thinking we’re cool with your bigotry.

Anyways yeah Vance is a costal conservative and thinks he understands Ohio just because he lived in Middletown until he had the ability to bail.

Oh good. I went to high school there and was 50-50 on whether they’d hate his guts or like him because republican

Yeah and for those who aren’t aware, Middletown is in the Dayton-Cincinnati area. It’s not even a little Appalachian, but rather extremely rust belt

What he’s describing is at best a symptom of unmedicated/undermedicated adhd and also not what he does

I think we should imprison the women involved as well

It’s an election year. Let them shut it down and lose the legislature

I did but that’s because I’d already been saving aggressively, had just lost my job, and the little entertainment budget I had left was no longer able to be used, then suddenly my unemployment benefits went up and I got stimulus money. It turned a guaranteed financial disaster into a little extra time.

Oh so they want her to lose

Unfortunately it seems like a lot of folks in Ohio will answer incorrectly about us

This sounds oddly familiar. I wonder who were the good guys last time

Meanwhile the current republican plan, project 2025, involves killing the national weather service and noaa. A lot of stuff the government does without people noticing either saves average Americans’ lives, money, or both, and those departments are both.

Round here in the Midwest the nws is the difference between a tornado being a massive loss in property and a massive loss in life. And their flood alerts and severe thunderstorm alerts are critical.

But that’s just lives, let’s talk to the supreme deity of the American religion, the dollar. Farmers rely on the nws providing free and high quality forecasts to all weather providers. We’ve got geostationary weather satellites thanks to noaa’s goes project. And that high quality weather data shared across everything means farmers know when to plant and when to water. That does more than just preventing famine, it also keeps food prices as stable as it can. The fact that food prices are only now being disrupted thanks to climate change, corporate greed, and supply chain issues instead of just being unstable year to year is a miracle of our weather monitoring system.

Ah yes, we cheated using the disease your side adamantly opposed to protecting yourselves from

Idk I just watched the video and my takeaway was that this is the kind of man who asks a waitress out and doesn’t take evasiveness as an answer. Maybe it’s not full perv, but it’s not not perv

Hey don’t hate him just because against all odds he managed to be useful to someone

Just some dim tool

They sided with the pandemic because Putin said so. They’re welcome to jobs outside the public eye, but not in it after that

Ok, but also I see this causing populist style attacks on disabled kids too. Especially those with invisible or “minor but valid” disabilities that disqualify.
