joe rogan's bags under his eyes have their own bags under their eyes

Some of those alt-right furries could be the anti-vaxxers shutting down the ferries.

anti-Mask
& anti-Vaxxers
shutting down our Nation's Highways*?!

time for the Feds to move in.

oh and
who's a 'Proper' noun?
aint it a pronoun?

Pedantly yours truly.

*our Highways
run right Thru
them ferries

Call me crazy, but if I was in an underground subway tunnel and water started gushing in like the Titanic, I would put down my social media feed and run like the fucking wind.

"time for the Feds to move in."

kinda like when ol' ronny the Raygun
FIRED all those Air Traffic Controllers

@3:

I think the joke is that he's referring to how Vulcan female names are translated into English. And yeah, I get it, "if you have to explain the joke...", but in this case only a serious Trekker would probably laugh at it anyway. I mean, even I didn't think it was THAT funny.

Also a shame surrendering themselves to a deadly virus for no reason other than their stubborn malformed spiritual or religious conviction.

Really, ferry workers? That's like, the dumbest iteration of worker solidarity I can think of for labor day weekend.

The west needs all that water more than the east does. Hurricanes have such an east-coast bias.

Susan Collins. Hmmm. What a tightrope she has to walk just to keep her job! Gives me a headache thinking about it. I'd find it so hard to be that duplicitous. There are quite a few progressive people in Maine. Unfortunately, there are seemingly as many MAGAs.

Unless Congress acts to make Roe v. Wade law, this shit's going to go on forever. It's going to be like....well, remember the dark old days of being gay in certain parts of the country? Parts where you knew you'd never get anything close to acceptance or civil rights? What did we have to do? (cue: Bronski Beat) You went where your people were. It's gonna be the same for young women. If our Congress can't drum up enough courage to support women's reproductive rights, then you'll just have to move to a state where they are guaranteed.

Until then, if you are a young woman who is sexual active (and most every young person is sexually active), keep a pregnancy test kit handy and start testing when you are two days late, and keep an untouchable bank account to pay for services and/or travel - probably a grand or two. So sorry, little sisters, that you are having to jump these unnecessary hurdles here in 2021.

@20 - leaving Texas seems like it might be more expedient. And the rest of us need to resolve to have nothing to do with that Christo-fascist little state. Boycott their products, refuse to travel there, etc.

As I understand the state vaccine mandate, you lose your job if you refuse to be vaccinated. Nice of the anti-vax ferry workers to identify themselves so we can boot them first.

@18:

It's not just junkies making the "death run" across Aurora: I regularly see joggers (presumably, they're not "junkies", because they're wearing sports clothing and frequently headphones) and even just ordinary pedestrians cutting through traffic, because there are only three legitimate ways to get across between roughly N 56th to the south (connecting the north part of Woodland Park to the east with the walkway that circumscribes the Zoo) and Winona Avenue & Linden Avenue to the north; a full mile-long span.

Normal people can't be bothered to wait 30 seconds or whatever amount of time it takes for a pedestrian signal to change in this town; you think they're going to walk a half mile out of their way just to cross a busy six-lane arterial?

@22 these kind of actions coupled with the state workers union suing Inslee is exactly why he will end up changing course on this. Just waiting for waffle to be nice and crisp.

yeah we don't Need no
Stinkin' Unions.
don't 'need' a
stupid Middle
Class either
apparently.

adios American Dreams.

@21 & @22: +1 dvs 99 for the WIN!!!
