Yeah don't do that with snappers. I used to carry a shovel in my work van specifically to shove snapping turtles off the road or out of my worksites.

The color choices are literally just "this is the color of my suit and tie". I wish I was making this up.

It also requires a lot of free labor and money from other workers that are willing to donate or put in time voluntarily. When you're only just able to put food on the table and a roof over your head, that's hard - and it's harder to organize it all because you don't have a critical mass of unions that communicate and understand each other's struggles.

They weren't even really anti technology - breaking the tech was the means available to them that worked. Protesting and petitioning didn't get them anywhere, so they decided on direct action to make it hurt the capitalists in the only place they care about. That meant smashing looms and carders and everything else, because those were incredibly expensive.

How long. We're in the "decline" period of the fall of empire, and I suspect that, like Rome, we'll be cruising through this for another decade or two.

Massie is the other KY senator, not the governor. Andy Beshear is the governor, and he's a Democrat.

A few months gives them time to purity test a few viable candidates and astroturf them to the voters.

Yup, they passed it specifically last April to stop Beshear from appointing anyone.

Now, TECHNICALLY this might garner a challenge in the state Supreme Court - it didn't amend the state constitution, which says the governor can appoint for vacant seats.

I was about to say, anyone who examined him beyond Hillbilly Elegy figured out the guy has no beliefs beyond "I deserve power". He'll say and do whatever you tell him to if you tell him that it will make him more powerful over people's lives.

Yup, hit them quick, nab their dynamite, maybe craft a few powder charges if you want, then beeline up the 15 to New Vegas. Cripple the legs on whatever decides to chase you.

This feels like them trying to "it's just a joke" a topic into local public discourse.

Loss of experience isn't a trackable metric, you can't put it in a spreadsheet, so it doesn't exist to the company.

And nothing of value was lost.
