For the life of me I cannot find all the functions that are hidden behind special swipes. Just please let me have a button, a menu, a visual option.

The Infinite Gyoza Lust Is real. The correct number of gyoza is more.
my problem with gyoza is that they normally come in an order of about 6, but what I really need is 100 of them

I don't care if the Trumps or Clintons find it tough to swallow, now that their crimes are coming to a head, it's time for them all to go down together.

Bitter pill, and I hope they all choke.

Kindly requesting that Brami add angel hair to their pasta line. My kid will eat no other shapes, and Barilla protein+ is the only way I get her to eat protein at dinner anymore.
Incidentally, Barilla’s owner is a big Trump supporter and has said he doesn’t want gay people buying his pasta.

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.

We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.

We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

The president of the United States is on his way to an NFL game after a weekend spent partying at his country club and fighting to starve poor Americans.

And Senate Democrats want to surrender to him?!

Fuck that and fuck them.

The thing about Johnson not swearing in Grijalva is that’s it a test for 2026.

If you think they will accept an outcome they don’t like, they will just Grijalva it.

So what’s the plan when the GOP says “we ain’t leaving, fuck you, make us.”

Because that IS what they are going to say.

I looked into this. The drivers know when it’s a food pantry delivery and therefore unlikely to tip, and it’s their choice whether to take that delivery. They aren’t required to.

Also looked at Reddit and saw numerous comments like these from drivers who delivered such orders in the past.

The GOP is using the shutdown to literally make people choose between starving and losing their healthcare. That’s how sadistic this is and what the age of fascism is going to look like unless we defeat it.

Afge sold out the working class today. If you reopen the government at the cost of millions of Americans losing healthcare, that is not a win.

Dues paying members should sign and share widely as we tell AFGE this is not what rank and file members want!

An important message:

AFGE President Kelley's statement pressuring Democrats to end the shutdown has gotten a lot of attention today. We understand his job is to secure pay and benefits for union members.

We stand in solidarity with them and urge Senate Democrats to hold the line. For us, it's about basic human decency. The fight is much bigger than us. ✊

But Congress and the public should know many DOL employees (even in the union) do not agree with him. We will burn through our savings, take loans or second jobs, and wait in line at food banks if that's what it takes to protect healthcare and other critical services for millions of Americans.

I understand this in a very narrow sense from AFGE, but in the slightly longer than extremely short term, it’s fucking stupid as hell.

“No.”

Quitters at AFGE tanking any chance of successfully unionizing at my org. Not a single fed in my circles is ready to give up, to undercut efforts to protect health insurance. Feds have frankly great health insurance options compared to the people at risk of skyrocketed premiums. We will remember.

We often disagree, but not this time. We live in a totally different country than we lived in this time last year, and the old one is never coming back. I don't anticipate secession or civil war so much as balkanization, as the federal government descends into failure/uselessness.

It would almost be a pleasure to watch if it didn't also basicslly mean the destruction of the republic in current form. I have a feeling, just from all the news items, that balkanization is about a 40/60 right now.

I really hope we can return to normal but balkanization seems like the only way out right now.

Have we considered that the federal government may never start back up? That the shutdown fight will stretch all the way to the midterms?

Presumably Rs will revolt at some point but who knows anymore?
