The people in the Southwest are just very forthright. They don't say one thing and mean another.
in the third decade of the 21st century.
Every millennial in this thread just died a little inside.
If they really go whole hog and sell off the hospitals and stuff then I would think the next president would just go to a Veteran's Public Option. There's a world in which 5 years from now we prove Medicare for All works because they deleted the entire side of the VA that does healthcare.
Science was cooler when you had to use a screwdriver.

There aren't any restrictions, unless they mean the stuff we don't give to anyone, not even NATO.
The only restrictions are stuff we don't give to anyone. By the end of Trump's term I will not be surprised if Israel has an Ohio class submarine.
My teacher in middle school did specifically call out that it would take a project over several decades to co-opt the system.
Well, they've been going after the judgeships for decades.
I think the punishment aspect is pretty intrinsic though. You don't get to enjoy normal things. You get stripped searched. You're separated from loved ones. You have no privacy. You can't go outside on a whim. And the food sucks. Being forced to work doesn't need to be in the list.
Oh it's definitely better than other other states. But I would suggest checking out the NE and NW as well.
Then go do the schooling and put your own life on the line.
Congratulations you just created a prisoner government that will require select prisoners to do all the work or be physically and sexually assaulted.
We put them there, it's our responsibility to take care of them. There's no getting around that.
Yes, but not in the way Sen McChucklefuck thinks. Senators are a famously ornery bunch. They're not going to respond well to threats.
Big Essential Oil ruining the day again.
No that's the standard of care under Texas' new laws. Getting mad at the doctors who won't destroy their own lives is as useless as getting mad at immigrants.
Fucking vote.
See that's still too vague. Cleaning the bathroom is a domestic duty and yet is something a janitor does in this context. I would say that's probably the dividing line, if it's something you'd pay someone to do then they would be banned from requiring it.
Oh no. Non volunteer work is punished if you don't do it and provides no good time.
Several people pointed out that our rules for behavior weren't immediately apparent. While I would say this shouldn't be an issue in a community about posting new communities, I have been proven wrong on multiple occasions. So I have made the list in our sidebar. These are a paraphrasing of Mastodon.World's rules. So there is no functional change. We will continue to use their rules as a master list. But they boil down to being civil. If you don't like something or someone and have no constructive criticism, then you just move on.
I'm going to put changes here as well so people on apps can see them easier.
>The rules for behavior are a straight carry over of Mastodon.World’s rules. You can click the link but we’ve reposted them here in brief, as a guideline. We will continue to use the Mastodon.World rules as the master list. Over all, be nice to each other and remember this isn’t a community built around debate. For the rules about formatting your posts, scroll down to number 2.
>1. Follow the rules of Mastodon.world, which can be found here.(link)
>A. Provide an inclusive and supportive environment. This means if it isn’t rule breaking and we can’t be supportive to them then we probably shouldn’t engage.
>B. No illegal content.
>C. Use content warnings where appropriate. This means mark your submissions NSFW if need be.
>D. No uncivil behavior. This includes, but is not limited to: Name Calling; Bullying; Trolling; Disruptive Commenting; or Personal Criticisms.
>E. No Harrassment. As an example in relation to Transgender people this includes, deadnaming, misgendering, and promotion of conversion therapy. Similarly Misogyny, Misandry, and Racism are also banned here.
Guys I understand there's big stuff going on in the world. This community though is really just about finding other communities. For now, on the theory that people kind of forgot where they were, some temp bans were handed out. I have no pretensions of this being c/news or something. But I also have no pretensions of this being c/news. It is absolutely beyond the pale to post your political broadsides here while people are trying to figure out the best place to have their community. The only way politics is acceptable here is if you're talking about opening or moving a community about politics or because of politics. And it should absolutely remain civil. A simple, "I don't like your ideology", is enough here.
Here we go again.

BEIJING (Reuters) -The United States on Tuesday pressed its call for military communication channels with China and signalled concern over reports that China plans a military training facility in Cuba following Secretary of State Antony Blinken's trip to Beijing over the weekend.

The Biden administration wants to set up a deconfliction line with China in much the same way they set one up with Russia during the Cold War. They're also signaling that future cooperation may come in the financial sector or by refining sanctions by tapping the Treasury Secretary as one of the next US officials to meet with Chinese leaders. The Commerce Secretary may also be about looking for a ways to offset the US bringing chip production home.
