He wouldn't have to if his opponents weren't a self confessed couch molester and an ex President who is a 34 times convicted felon?! Now only one of these is literally true, but which one?? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

EDIT: re-attached missing limb

EDIT: what's going on?! I have my forearm back but I've lost BOTH upper arms?!

EDIT: I have succesfully re-attached all limbs but now I'm trapped in this grey box?!

EDIT: I was actually nervous to make one more edit, but I'm pleased to announce that the procedure was a complete success! All limbs have been restored and the patient is recovering well!

Great to see the US/Dems getting fired up with some positivity for once! There's a strong "Let's goooo!" vibe now! It's incredible how right-wing influencers targeted Kamala Harris' laugh in that video, but watching it brings nothing but joy! With all the recent grimness, I'll take this positivity any day! :-D Kamala is memeable and is leaning into it and I wouldn't be surprised if they just grabbed that laugh video and used it in their own campaign! :-D (I'm not a US citizen, just excited for you finally!)

That explains why it took Trump so long to reach out to the deceased's family to offer his condolences, he was too busy brainstorming ways to cash out on the tragedy?! Disgusting!

They need to put it explicitily into the terms and conditions :-D He should always have to enter with his own card but that's somewhat on those that swiped for him, they shouldn't have. Yes he's taking the piss but if they don't specify time limits or "fair use" in the terms and condidtions that's on them.

Headline is prob not fair but the article is full of the same old tired arguments.

Cycle lanes cause congestion. Cool, lets get some cars off the road, that'll help.

Cyclists get injured too. Yes, by cars. See previous point.

It's gonna impact ambulances. OK, but apart from less cars = less "accidents" and therefore less callouts, that road has enough space down the middle for an ambulance to drive sideways?! Do they think planners don't take emergency routes/access into account in their plans? I assure you they do.

I have to turn at a right angle to get into the driveway. Yes, you have to slow down, which improves the chances you'll spot and therefore not hit somone. You can't careen wildly into a driveway at speed anymore. Sorry, not sorry.

My low car might get an owie. Yes, you chose a low car. There are a million things that might impact it i.e basically every single driveway, speed hump, gutter or object on the road.

My big car doesn't even get impacted by your speed bumps. Wow, so what is it? We have to build higher speed bumps. Okay, but mr sports car is going to be getting even more owies. I don't know what we're supposed to do with that information/brag?

My business will die if you remove the one park outside my door. Wow, your business is on its death bed already then?! I'm very sorry. I don't think that one car park is doing all you think it is? Personally I only go to a business that is near a bus stop or good cycling infrastructure but I know I'm weird because I don't own a car but really, I see this argument all the time and it makes no sense. Can't people park around the corner and walk a few minutes?! If someone parks in a parking building you often have to walk/take a lift/take multiple stairs and STILL end up walking to the shop. Maybe slap up a bike stand and work on your marketing, product, quality, service or whatever else will make an actual difference to your businesses survival? /rant

THIS! A million times this!! It's literally implying the opposite of their intent in that you have to have someone else HELP YOU because you OBVIOUSLY can't pull yourself up by your own bootstraps!

One way to use this phrase correctly would be "No one can pull themselves up by their own bootstraps, we all need some help along the way."!

Just for a bit of context I was "surfing the internet" in 1994 via Gopher, an early alternative to the web as we know it now and I used it primarily to find and download apps stored on computers connected to the internet.

In 1995 I was using the Mosaic browser and later Netscape to surf the World Wide Web mostly via webrings that were individual webpages that had links to other wepages of similar content linked to them.

I don't recall and am not aware of anything that would resemble a meme from that time? This is a year or so before Dancing Baby which is usually considered the first viral video and even then that was originally shared via email forwards.

These types of laws are sick and barbaric and not indicitive of a civilised society! These woman should not have to revisit their trauma but they are fucking made to by a sick group of degenerates who make laws that the majority simply don't want!
