Reply to Does the textile waste ban seem like it is going to be a nightmare to anyone else? by lufecaep
Personally, not so much a nightmare since I tend to avoid synthetic fabrics, but I guess for fans of fast fashion, it might be. My kids clothes tend to get given away once they outgrow them.

Reply to Daylight Savings by DesiVegan_
Yeah, so the whole Daylight Savings Time thing here is a bunch of bullshit basically lobbied for by the US Chamber of Commerce (not an actual government entity despite its efforts to sound like one).
The pinheads here figured out that if we had more daylight in the afternoons and evenings when it is in effect, people would be more likely to go shopping and spend money in stores. Aaand they were kinda right.
So now we have two days a year (I would argue two weeks but I'm totally not going to bother backing my claims with anything like actual data) we have seriously elevated rates of traffic deaths until everyone adjusts to the clock changes.
Money > Life. Make sense, now?
Have at me with the downvotes, I don't have the energy to do fucking citations today :p

In short? He doesn't get the Democratic voters. He doesn't get the MAGA mouth breathers. That leaves what, 10% of the electorate? On a GOOD day?
