Laser is an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation, and yet we all pronounce it “lay-Zer” not “lay-Ser”

It is not illegal to send money by mail and there are legitimate reasons to do so. This is a blatant money grab by a corrupt government.

polyamory is an alternative to monogamy, so if you think a community about monogamous relationships should be NSFW then I guess, but I think that might be a stretch.

Did you just say the government pays regular citizens?? Where I come from that’s communism. Governments are only supposed to pay corporations like the good lord intended.

Well technically, as demonstrated by some proposed anti-abortion laws, the right to travel is not enumerated and thus, according to some republicans, does not exist. Just like the right to privacy. So if you are already drinking the koolaid, travel restrictions are possible.

No they said Sacred Lie. I think it’s some sort of religion.

For me they help me be more ok slowing down and starting small and not feeling so overwhelmed from all there is to do. So I’m like 50% likely to do something on meds and 20% off.

I read the article partly to see if the Karen-haircut judge was part of the gerrymandering, but no, she is not. Janet is a newly elected justice the republicans want to impeach for daring to criticize their ridiculous maps:

““They are rigged, period. Coming right out and saying that. I don’t think you could sell to any reasonable person that the maps are fair,” she said at a January candidates forum.”

 

Based on the article from [https://lemmy.ca/post/2016593](this post), apparently Idaho was the first state to pass a law allowing a rolling stop for bicycles. As one of the least progressive states in most issues, I am pleasantly surprised at their being first at passing a pro-cycling law and forty years later there are still only ten other states that have followed their lead. Good job little Idaho.
