You can see those types of sign vehicles in Vegas, especially on the strip, but let's just say they're not for political ads 😜

So much nuance, wow

For the first time ever, manufacturers would be required to study the impact of test dummies hit outside of vehicles

But that will reveal a LOT of corroborating information for what we know, which is how dangerous they are. It's a good thing to have more data

Don't let perfect be the enemy of good. The reality is that dismantling an industry so enmeshed in our economy, both nationally and locally, is HARD. People WILL be negatively impacted and it would be stupid to ignore that. Democrats have to walk a very thin tightrope to not alienate people, which is what will happen if we go as hard as we should

This isn't to sway them, it's to sway their constituents

There's a reason a distinction is made between how black people use it and when the "hard r" is in the pronunciation

Wow. She's probably right, but holy shit she actually said that publicly

English culture around "image" is sooo toxic, exemplified by this and the Lucy Letby case. Rather let babies die and cover it up than admit you're not perfect

Megalodon is a good client, forked from a recent version of the official Mastodon app for Android (which is a fine client in itself). Megalodon also supports some extra features that some instances opt for via a forked backend, but it's fully compatible with all instances. Here's are some good place to find instances https://mastodon.fediverse.observer/list https://fedidb.org/software/mastodon

We need warm bodies to vote blue, that's it

Do you know if there's a Lemmy version?
