@AnonymousLeftie @bambipotf i agree with you so im just arguing this for fun but landlocked would literally mean "locked in by land" but if you have a navigable waterway to the ocean then, well, you're not locked in by land.

@mirrorlogician yeah man, but the disruption has to relate back to the issue the workers are having with the people in power. shutting down the trains because youre striking for better wages makes sense so people are sympathetic. shutting down highways for non highway doesnt do that.

i find it interesting while dudes calling themselves a 'good christian' or 'family man' is still pretty right wing coded, in isolation basically every kind/compassionate action that society considers 'christian' or 'family' oriented is left wing coded.

@AnonymousLeftie all the more reason to look at job at municipal/county/state gov jobs. most have much more rudimentary job application systems, if they even have one vs just a general e-mail to send a pdf application to.

i will never forget the time i talked about how government work is good money + pension + regular work hours that don't ask too much of you and someone replied with "do you mean 75k or 200k good money" and i said "80k" and they stoppped replying. ftr, 80k is top 27% nationally.

@ET_Californian I'm still shocked, especially because it wasn't a secret. I was a conservative back then and I remember reading on the right wing blogs how important winning the state legislatures to control redistricting was. But when I tell people how it was a plan they give me looks.

@acpea @ok_post_guy i want them to do all that, but i wouldn't mind if they did it because their platform was "we hate republicans and will do everything we can legislatively to spite them and make them as mad as possible":
