- Comment on The politics are better where it is wetter 3 months ago:
It looks like the synthesis of those two seemingly contradictory things is: If Congress is still in session after the 10 day grace period for the president to sign it has passed, the bill is treated as signed and becomes law. However if the 10 day grace period goes by and Congress is no longer in session at the end of that period, the bill is treated as vetoed.
Another approach: Does nibbling on it count as a signature?
- Comment on I like this text. In which Lemmy community can I best share it ? Thanks. 6 months ago:
It seems to me that all of the reasons they provides are all reasons to get married. Especially raising a child, given the privileges that are afforded to married parents in a lot of places (especially in the case of adoption, or IVF using a stranger’s genetic material). Something doesn’t have to require marriage for the benefits of it to outweigh the cons for a specific situation.
The question seems to me to be kind of confusing. What alternative are you comparing it to? Some sort of local structure like domestic partnership?
- Comment on Boeing retaliated against its own engineers working for FAA, union says 6 months ago:
They are talking corporate death penalty (as evidenced by the rest of the comment), not literal killing of people. And they are correct.
- Comment on The mist Texan of all expressions - Y'All - is ungendered and therefore woke 1 year ago:
I started using y’all years ago due to its ungenderedness, in part from being in queer spaces. Walking into a room of trans women and enbies and saying “you guys” felt weird.
- Comment on Really, ….. it's my fault they built a terrible system? 1 year ago:
I would love for the market to plummet where I’m at. Housing as an investment that outpaces wage is a primary problem here, if it crashed maybe half my income wouldn’t go to rent, and more and more people wouldn’t be pushed to the streets while people’s “investments” sit around empty, as they search for the perfect petless, 6 figure making tenant.
