Ironically it's very specifically weaker, without muscles.

It denotes a change in capitalization from the original.

Flood Insurance Risk Rating 2.0 is kind of sneakily the second best environmental policy Biden got done (after IRA). Actually charging places in flood plains the amount it costs to rebuild, rather than subsidizing it so people repeatedly rebuild in places that flood all the time, will incentivize people slowly to move away from those areas, or at least pay what it costs to live there and know what they're getting into.

There's no amendment protecting mini blinds.

More accurately, a vote for Stein is a vote for whichever major party candidate the voter wouldn't have voted for. In most cases, someone voting for the Green Party would vote for Harris, so it's a vote for Trump.

That isn't a moral judgement, it's the facts of a two party system. -1 vote for Harris = +1 vote for Trump, no other votes matter.

And that's not telling someone you don't consider their political beliefs. Considering their political beliefs, they should vote for the major party candidate that they agree with the most, or they will effectively be voting for the one they agree with least.

That's not the approach with Trump supporters because Trump is the major party candidate they agree with most, by definition. If anything one should try to get Trump supporters to vote 3rd party, Libertarian or for RFK or whoever.

5 day RTO is a stealth layoff. This is a feature, not a bug.

There's zero evidence that it's happening "often" so I'm mostly using the space to point out that there's more to "church" in America than the white evangelical politics-forward churches they see represented on TV. Those pastors are on TV because they are the exception.

Every church I've ever been to has been carefully non-partisan on candidates. It's not just tax status, they don't want to cause parishioners to feel unwelcome because they need the attendance.

I know some churches are being overly political, sure, but I absolutely believe the majority are doing the right thing.

Not all of them

Churches are social organizing spaces, they have been involved in politics since the very beginning. As long as they are doing it the right way, by encouraging voting but not voting for a particular candidate, and running voter registration drives, driving people to the polls, that's good. We want more people to vote.

It's not hypocritical to once be skeptical and then learn that something is OK. That's called learning.

I blame people for being obtuse when they were complaining with zero evidence that there was a problem, I don't blame people at all for working legally to increase voting.

She's obviously Bernie's heir apparent and will replace him as The Left Wing Democrat to come in 2nd in the primaries now that he's too old and she's old enough.

NYC is 7.4% of the US economy. I'm saying that to agree with you, that's bigger than Florida, bigger than every state other than CA, TX, and (obviously) NY.
