Broadview is a streetcar suburb village of 8000 people, mostly middle class African Americans, in a low crime community that actually has a good relationship with its relatively scandal free police department.
The mayor of Broadview is representing the people of Broadview, who are sick of all this.

I like putting a dash of cardamom bitters in my glass of water

2140 is like the absolute perfect score for a democratic socialist who is centering a campaign on working class affordability. low enough to show commonality, high enough to show aspiration. It’s like engineered for a working class centered campaign lmao.

This is why I’m reflexively against governmental registration of e bikes and other micro mobility devices especially those frequently used by undocumented and disabled people, and people in urban areas who may be involved in activism

Was just talking about this at dinner (in Chicago), even today a landlord is required to provide heating but not air conditioning as long as there is one common room in the entire building that can be kept below 80F.
So any apartment block with a basement doesn’t require AC. Insane.

I am not online but recently learned of the drama, I’ve known FG personally for almost 20 years and I they are not bad people. This sounds like an internet spat that can be solved through sitting down and talking, something nobody does anymore

Don’t forget immediate withdrawal from nato, closing of all overseas military bases, ending all military aid to all governments, granting full sovereignty to Hawaii (do they even want that?) and replace USD as global reserve currency. It’s beyond vapid and reads like it was ghostwritten by Putin.

You tell me. This is the latest platform. It calls for immediate withdrawal from NATO, abolishing USAID, NED, Voice of America, all US military aid, close all foreign military bases, and end the US dollar reserve. I can’t find any “alternatives” but maybe you can.

Hot take, scale of AAA games make it incentivized to keep prices low, but fucks over indie/niche games because they cannot have that scale yet must keep prices in line with expectations of AAA games (or lower since people expect to pay premium for AAA, they don’t think its subsidized by scale)
