Who will account for the Ladder, but OSHA?

Is this post even forklift certified?

I did not have a first communion because my parents decided Catholic rituals are stupid, which means I missed out on quite a lot of cash gifts from relatives I should have gotten. I'm still bitter about it. Where's my fucking money grandma!?

So I'm not skipping my first vote, no matter how stupid liberal rituals are.

Ya I bought an NES with my first communion money. You missed out.

However the adult therapy bills ran me well into the many thousands of dollars.

I don’t remember getting any cash at my First Communion.

The only people who care about vote are the people for whom the outcome actually means nothing.

No LIB who spends their time vote shaming or talks about "we won't get the vote anymore" he'll be a dictator" etc., would be effected in the least - even if their fantasies happened.

The people who things will get worse for know that it will get worse either way- at exactly the same speed. There is no harm reduction. The policy of this government is harm against humanity. Only people who are comfortable and insulated from that harm through money and privilege are out 9f touch enough to think vote matters

Why didn't you cross post it? I mean - if it was a real question and not just something for just to laugh about.

Earlier today I asked this at Bluesky

Serious question - why can't Biden simply say "This is an official act and Kamala is the presidential nominee." Trump could (will?) murder people with his official act power. So why doesn't Biden use just a teeny-weeny bit?

Crickets.

I'm kind of a crazy person at that site because I'm often just talking to myself. Libs ignore me or block me. I'm going to make yet-another-alt so I can post in r/politics and at least get replies as they have their downvoting party.
