Democratic?

US exceptionalism.

Oh no. They were mass movements that performed illegal actions and threatened more. We the People didn’t cast votes. We demanded what we deserved with a threat of violence.

Why did they pass them? You seem to have not studied any history at all.

None of them were accomplished through the electoral system.

None of those were the result of democracy.

The New Deal, the Civil Rights Act, Women’s Lib, cessation of hostility in Vietnam, the Clean Water Act, the ADA, Lol.

You moved the goal post then assumed I was an idiot. This was a time when you probably should’ve asked one good question. If you do so now perhaps another user will answer.

Befriend a farmer.

I saw crypto from home screen to settings. While anecdotal, that made them very difficult to trust.

I enjoy being “randomly” selected for further screening for five flights in series and having by balls fondled in public.

My wife and I built a travel trailer. We needed to judge our water usage to decide capacity.

My wife has long hair, all the way to the top of her butt. Without rushing it takes her 10gal (~40L) of water to have a shower where she washes her hair. At the other extreme, either of us can take a basic shower where we turn the water off until needed, a “navy shower”, with 2gal (~8L).

In the US all shower heads are limited to a maximum of 1.75 gal/min (~7L). It’d take about a half hour to use 200L+.

The first thing you could do is to heavily shorten the time the water is running. One or two minutes split between start and finish is sufficient. If even more severe limitations are wanted then install a bidet or kitchen faucet sprayer instead of a shower head.

Much is pointless, without meaningful effect. Go after the corporations polluting, using, and often stealing the vast majority of our water. And, move out of Phoenix and Las Vegas.

Many people have their choices made for them because there are no practical alternatives.

Alternatively, one could disengage from the electoral system and instead focus on actions history has proven effective.

The younger adults showed up to a primary and won it. But, unfortunately, the SCOTUS ruled that private organizations can nominate whomever the fuck they want regardless of the outcome of the vote. Those adults don’t vote anymore.

It’s certainly their fault. /s

Which one are you minimizing with your vote, racism or genocide?

I’m sometimes hesitant to speak to people because I can’t remember if they told me the personal thing or I deduced it.

The world is so full of maliciousness that status quo is unable to perceive good faith if it disturbs their immediate comfort. You’re part of the minority that’ve chosen principles and reason over popularity. Voices like yours are critically important to our collective future. You’re understood and have my support.

Unsolicited advice: Don’t push to burn out. They’ll have you rolling in the shit with them. Take breaks often.

I’d never worked out in my life. So, I visited many gyms, found a mom & pop, and hired the trainer free from corporate constraints.

My second session he said, “You might be better off doing bodyweight exercises at home for a few weeks.”

I told him that there was absolutely no way I’d form this habit by myself. I needed him to hold me accountable. I needed a routine.

We did bodyweight exercises at the gym for a few weeks. We set goals of a certain number of push ups, (band assisted) pull ups, sit ups, and (I forgot the name of the hamstring exercise) to “earn” my way back to the machines and free weights.

I can definitely understand how a trainer could get frustrated with an individual. But, a trainer that sends a noob home simply sucks. They should at least provide a referral to another trainer.

Why’s it matter if they’re killing Americans or other innocent people?

Oh, I forgot. It’s the NYT.

Many articles but never a list of apps. What shit reporting.
