Uhh... the misogyny though

Are you... defending pedophilia?
You're fucking full of it. Nobody but the rich can afford to fucking buy RIGHT NOW. That would make houses more affordable so NORMAL WORKING PEOPLE people CAN buy instead of rent. But because it's not a perfect solution for everyone we shouldn't do it? You sound like a corporate toady, bro.
Yep. I live in a suburb outside a major city. To get to the "train station" without a car, I'd need to walk over a mile to the closest bus stop, take that bus up the road to a transfer, take that bus to the light rail station, then take that light rail to the train station. 1 1/2 hours vs 45 minutes driving. And if I'm already driving 45 minutes anyway, I'd rather just stay in my car and go straight to my destination.
Another ignored factor is safety. depending on the city (like mine), public transportation is full of mentally ill and people on drugs. I've seen more fights and freaky shit on public transportation than I have the rest of my life combined. I had to physically intervene a dude harassing my client with autism once and shove him out the door. That was the last time I took public transportation because it's not worth my safety. Thanks drug decriminalization.
In America the train costs as much as a plane ticket. Driving is cheaper. We also have very little in the way if trains. Most of our long distance travel is by bus. Tiny, dirty, cramped busses where if someone takes a shit in the toilet everyone smells it for hours. I would rather drive.
That has to be the real reason they've canceled Grand Tour
What are you talking about?
Jokes aside, I generally hate this mentality. "Why were you looking at x".
Cause it's different from the usual. Brains are wired to spot differences and things that are out of the ordinary. Erections stick out (heh). Same as putting 'Juicy' on butts of pants. Bannana hammocks on dudes at tge beach. People with unique body shapes like super muscle torsos or big asses.
Or maybe I'm just horny...
What would be the point? Would society give them special treatment? First pick at colleges? Extra retirement benefits?
I acknowledge school shootings as a unique and extreme trauma, but lots of kids are subject to situations that cause educational delays. Do kids whose parents or siblings die from other ways get special stickers? Kids who have suffered abuse or neglect?
I find it laughable that any woman believes she'd be capable of getting enough of the vote from such a misogynistic base. The vast majority of hard-core evangelicals I know are the kind that leave churches when they get a woman pastor because "a woman shouldn't tell a man what to do".
I'm very curious how these people would react if a woman did win the primaries. Would they prefer a woman over a democrat?
The other big thing is there is no other Democrat options in the spotlight. Newsom was the closest, but he's started abandoning liberal policies in California in order to paint himself as a moderate option in a 2028 run.
Also that happened at the very end of ds9, and only when the least ferengi-like ferengi ever became grand nagus, and his advisors were, his non-ferengi wife and his give-no-fucks civil rights leader mother.
