He also runs as independent, specifically because the Democratic party pulls this shit

Tommy Tuberville is slept on as a candite for the "Most harmful senator" award. He's such a bold-faced boot licker and hasn't done a single thing to uphold his oath of office

Unless there's nuclear war, there's no such thing as the point of no return. Just a further slide into more egregious civil rights violations. Eventually it will get better, hopefully through democratic means and not violent ones.

Hey now, they're happy to decentralize the feed management so they don't have to worry about processing user's custom feeds themselves!

Not necessarily. If it's after the electoral votes are cast, then yes, definitely.

But the electors are bound by different rules, set by their respective states, on how they would vote if Trump died before then.

This move actually makes zero fucking sense. Having people in our country who are willing to work less money than the average citizen labor costs are low. That basically means more money for him and his oligarch buddies.

He's already won the election. He doesn't have to keep posturing like this. And he's not going to be elected again, so either he (hopefully) has no third term, or he'll prevent the 2028 elections from being free and fair.

My prediction is that nothing will actually come of this and he's saying this to keep his approval rating high.

Either that or he's even more racist than he is greedy and self-centered

Hyundai is listening to what consumers want much more readily than other manufacturers, and their body designs strike an incredible balance between modern familiarity and retrofuturism. It's almost exactly what I want from a new vehicle, other than the fact that they use all the same forced telemetry that other brands are using.

They're also offering a great spread of electric AND hybrid vehicles to satisfy consumers worried about charger availability as well as consumers worried about the impact of gasoline-powered vehicles.

I won't be surprised if they continue to increase their market share for a long time to come. If only privacy concerns were as common among the broader population as they seem to be here in the Fediverse, then maybe they might address those issues as well and be a no-brainer purchase.

The birth year range for different generations is fuzzy, but I can't find a single source saying that 2006 or 2007 would be considered gen Alpha. The youngest population that voted in this election is gen. Z, and not all members of Gen. Z are eligible to vote yet.

Bonus points if you buy your Bloc no more than 2 items at a time, from multiple stores, including thrifting, and using cash for at least half of it.

However, the economy being good is not often actually good for the customer. It's just a slowing down of things getting worse.

Another reason why domain registrars should be restricting these kinds of sites to their own category of tld

I'm not worried about downvotes when I engage in politics. If it's more than I'm expecting to see, I might reassess whether my take is reasonable or comes from misunderstanding and poor judgement. But if it's a handful of downvotes on a take I stand by, I'm not going to pay them much mind.
