A really funny complaint about the Zohran discount grocery store idea is that non-poor people could use it when there’s a grocery store half a mile from my grocery store that has everything cost 20% more that rich people go to because they don’t want to shop with normal people.
Real talk: The only elections you can give a shit about are the ones you can vote in. Other than that, you're just annoying.
If y'all think we can survive as a species doing the same shit like we are now, you're fooling yourselves.
Conover is catching hell for this in the comments but he’s not wrong about a lot of it, particularly the union angle youtu.be/GnHyKckbwIw?...

No data centers in MoCo is excellent news
Evan Glass@evanmglass.bsky.social · last wk.This is a big deal for Montgomery County. Yesterday the County Council passed an 18-month pause on new data center development. I’ve been advocating for a pause because we need to slow down, ask the right questions, and set a responsible path forward.
An absolute, freakin' 🤡 is the commander-in chief of the US military.
