    Historically Obamacare was popular in its details but unpopular by name. So it really matters how they ask the question. People really want their pre-existing conditions covered and they really like keeping their kids on their plan until age 26. But Obamacare? Fuck that.

    @89th said in Hay LD!: I’m in DC. It’s amazing how safe I feel as the military is glued to their phones and eating ice cream. [image: 1760355219180-877a70f6-3fc8-4498-a268-921bdd8195a8-image.png] I don’t get it. I see a couple walking by the water, but otherwise it’s all lawn, paved walkways, and stone walls…

    I could possibly see it to try and protect local stores from Amazon, but this actually hurts local restaurants and other businesses that provide local delivery.

    I feel indigenously resentful.

    @Mik said in “Get Flacco” you said. “It’ll be…..: Shouldn’t be Thursday night football. I don’t disagree, especially for divisional play. Stats say that visiting teams are at a much higher disadvantage than normal away games.

    Didn’t get exercised. Sad. But it’s what I was hoping for when I chose not to de-risk on Friday.

    If this is still current I would include some bottles of bubbles. Even people who don’t drink wine enjoy a prosecco or cava of some sort.

    I just find it annoying. Nothing more. Am sure it will fade away as time goes on. In the meantime, I’ll treat indigenous land acknowledgements the same as having to recite the Lord’s Prayer or say grace at a solemn occasion or group dinner. I quietly refuse to participate and simply bow my head in polite reticence. Edit: FWIW, the BC Supreme Court’s ruling is of little if any consequence in BC and zero concern or consequence outside of BC beyond Sun Media. Certainly not in Manitoba where the story was published as News..

    It is. Horace said his muscle mass was elite so I chose a different class reference. High Prole was Paul Fussel’s description of the high end of working class in his book about class in America.

    Wow, that’s going to be embarrassing when the military actually gets paid on the 15th.
