  • Thank you, I was going to order the #2 (they think it's bad) but you already got to it!

  • Protest quitting would require a large amount of people to do it at the same time. If only a few people quit it's a net loss because then the percentage of bad people is higher.

  • I hate how journalists keep repeating "presidential immunity" without explaining that presidential immunity doesn't apply when not in office. The hush money stuff happened before he was president.

  • There is hope. If you read the polls section of the article you will notice that the ruling was very unpopular among people of both parties (among common people, of course I feel that Republicans in office don't agree with their constituents). I think now is the time for a strong campaign fiance reform push. If we can't get it done at the federal level we shall try the state level.

  • Of course! I totally agree, In the "body" of the post I was trying to make that point that yes we have to take that seriously but we cannot forget the other bad things Trump is doing. We have to resist him on multiple fronts.

  • analysts expect minimal financial impact on Meta

    Let's make the analysts wrong and boycott Meta products. Quit Facebook, Instagram and Threads.

    There's a common saying; If 9 people sit down at a table with 1 Nazi without protest, there are 10 Nazis at the table. The people at Meta are like the 9 people, they pretend to act ignorant but they know exactly what they are doing. They care more about profits than they care about the country so we must make it so they loose big from this decision.

  • Don't put the cart before the horse. The Wikipedia article says that "The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) estimates $15 billion in available capital will be generated by bonding revenues from the tolls, which will be available to fund repairs and improvements to the subway, bus, and commuter rail systems."

  • According to Wikipedia "Low-income residents receive a 50 percent discount on daytime tolls after their first ten trips into the congestion zone in a calendar month". So to some extent the system does take your concern into account.

  • I recreated the picture and changed the wording to address that issue. Are you still seeing the old version? The one I posted should say "can't afford a studio apartment".

  • Everything under Trump seems to trace back to Putin. I think they are doing this to give false legitimacy to Putin's invasion into Ukraine. They will say "See? America is doing it so we can too".

  • I would love too. I really don't think America should invade any country. One thing everyone can do no matter what country they live in you can boycott Tesla and Twitter. Musk is going to be a major funder of the GOP so ending his propaganda megaphone and wealth could change the course of events.

  • I ended up recreating the picture to fix the picture ordering and replaced barely afford with can't afford.

  • I ended up recreating the picture and fixing the issue. For some reason I feel the text looks slightly better in the original. I don't understand why, it's like the original is slightly less bold.

  • It's disgusting how negative of an impact he's had on the world. I might also enjoy a cake the day that happens.

  • And it sure doesn't help that Fox News is playing 24/7 on military bases.

  • You must have a "local" Sinclair-owned station I'm guessing.

  • If you were to block Fox you should also block other more extreme channels like Newsmax and OANN.

    TIL If you have cable/satellite TV and you don't like Fox News you might be able to pick a package which doesn't include Fox News. This ensures they won't get money from you.
