@pmonks Further, if you don't believe the polls, that is all the more reason not to believe that Biden and Trump are inevitable.

#Vote and change the course of history for the better.

@pmonks This far out? The Iowa Caucuses are *11 days from today*! People will be voting for presidential candidates a week from Tuesday! Super Tuesday is less than 60 days from now.

NOW is the time to pay attention and VOTE in the primaries!

According to the most recent polls #Biden is the only candidate #Trump has any chance of beating, and Trump is the only candidate that Biden has a chance of beating. The first party to ditch their stubborn old fart will win in a landslide. #USPOL

Important #NewLaw went into effect January 1 in #California :
"2806.5. (a) A peace officer making a traffic or pedestrian stop, before engaging in questioning related to a criminal investigation or traffic violation, shall state the reason for the stop. The officer shall document the reason for the stop on any citation or police report resulting from the stop."

No more "Do you know why I pulled you over?" from #cops in California.

@Robminchin My quick google search says that there is a 5 x 10^6 km difference between Aphelion and Perihelion. Is this enough to make a noticeable weather difference near the equator where axial tilt is not such a big factor?

Also is there some force that keeps the line of apsides close to the solstices or is it just our luck to be alive at a time when they coincide?

I'm now seeing increased social media attacks against #Gavin #Newsom and #Nikki #Haley. They are coordinated and well produced which means Super PACs. Somebody somewhere thinks #Trump and/or #Biden may not make it to the general election. 🤔

@girls_can rather than color, you need to sort by function. I have 2 formal wear, 5 business, 4 manual labor (my last job needed rugged apparel), and 4 grubby

@passenger @BrentToderian Totally a housing problem. While 90% of the counties homeless residents are within the city limits, FHA funding goes to the county where the Board of supervisors which spreads it out according to (housed / voting) population.

@APBBlue I typically put 3-4 in. Putting in 16 heads of garlic would leave no garlic for tomorrow night.

3a) Keep those spaces safe looking and feeling.

My former city of #Sacramento did a really great job of having lots of great public spaces, but right now they are filled with tents, needles and excrement. I understand why parents are buying SFH in the suburbs with fenced back yards.

@noondlyt How young are you? The every beach in California got closed by Gavin Newsom in 2020.

@obtener So if diapers can be produces for less money, where is the competitor who will make better diapers for less money and undercut Huggies sales?

@Robminchin and indeed any government whose identity is attached to any religion. Theocracy is bad no matter what religion or which state or type of government.

What a photo!

@admin Mexican Americans have this problem as well. Somehow everyone who got colonized by Catholic Europeans gets lumped into "Latino" or the total BS spanglish that is "latinx." Why we need a category that includes Brazilians, Cubanos, Puerto Ricans, Mexicans, etc in one heading that is "definitely not a race, but we ask every time we ask for race" is just beyond me.
