People often join the military because they are poor. It’s a way to get out of poverty. The army feeds and houses you, and can even give you an education if you want. There should be more non-military programs that do the same, but there aren’t.

Are you talking about Planter or the other guy.

I find it amusing that after the tantrums about quarantining during COVID it’s now the unvaccinated kids who are spending 3 weeks at home, while the vaccinated kids have school as usual. While I don’t want kids to get sick because their parents are idiots, I love the parents being inconvenienced

I simply responded to your frustration at not having a Democratic office in your county. Why are you so angry?

Lbweaver @lbweaver.bsky.social · 5d

I’m sorry you were offended but not sure how I was supposed to know you were disabled. You were simply complaining about not having a party presence in your county. I assumed you didn’t know that anyone can start one up.

Then start a Dem office in your area. I live in rural Tennessee and we have a Dem party here. In fact, for the first time in ages we have a Democratic Party in all 95 counties in the state. Call your state party and tell them you want to start a party in your county and they will help.

@aftynbehn.bsky.social for the primary win! This is a house seat we could flip. The Republican is a Trump pick. The election is December 2, 2025 so show your support!

This is a ridiculous article. Get an EV then you don’t have to feel guilty about your inhaler, but also just don’t feel guilty about your inhaler.
