There wasn’t a reason to before but now they are doing it now because there’s enough of a market to justify it…I’m not sure what you think they did so wrong

Seriously, dude? Wishing testicular and breast cancer on them when bone cancer is so much worse?

Why would they prioritize resources into something with low demand…?

I know there’s a lot of Steam haters out there but simple shit like this is why they’re on top.

What the hell are you talking about? What about my comment made you think I was defending cops?

I’ve never heard anyone refer to 3/2 beer but I used to visit my friend at the state college to party and everyone loved Icehouse (for the price, not the taste). Putting both hands up and say “FIVE FIVE” for the 5.5% ABV it offered

Didn’t you know? Everyone in Europe is perfect and everyone in the US is a bumbling MAGA idiot? That’s the impression I get from a lot of Lemmy threads, anyway.

It might have been party volunteers here too, not sure as I was the “lowest level” of volunteer…

I think you hit the nail on the head with the amount of polling stations. Politicians of a certain party here really like voter suppression.

I’m not sure if they called it a scrutineer but I used to volunteer at elections (US) and they did the same. The counters would sit at a long table with people watching from both sides. If I remember correctly, everyone had to stay until it was done and there was a sign-in/out sheet.

I understand that there’s more people voting for federal elections but it really didn’t take that long. Polling closed at 7 and the results/physical ballots were delivered to city hall by 10

Man, even being around horses puts me on edge. I don’t get it

I can’t say if you’re technically correct as far as MLA formatting or whatever but I’ve been on the internet for 30 years and basically everyone puts the asterisk after the word they’re correcting. I don’t think I’ve ever seen it the way you’re describing lol

You’re right, it would be so much better if they were happy to be there. I would much prefer knowing that all of the soldiers are excited to suppress our constitutional right to protest. WAY better than the chance of one lashing out because they’re mad at their boss, right?

Probably not? Reading 300 pages of unfocused ranting doesn’t sound like fun even if I agree with the “message”

I’d read about the rise of oligarchy in the US but that doesn’t seem like what this would be

I see you stopped reading the article there. It gets worse…

“My plan at first was to get out excessive toxins in my body. I felt like my body is intelligent, I know that to be true. Our bodies are brilliantly made,” Lewis said. “I decided to keep my tumor and try to work it out of my body a different way. . . . I wish I could go back. It’s important for me to admit where I went wrong with this.”

If your Nazi landlord put up a sign in the front yard that says “THIS RENTER GIVES MONEY TO NAZIS,” you’d probably want to end your lease, too

That’s a really fuckin bizarre rule then.

Yeah this title sucks, I got ragebaited until I read the article. They could take a full month off and it wouldn’t even be a 1% cut.

Not that I think ANY pay should be getting cut, I just don’t think this is an example of sexism. Why would getting sick while you happen to be pregnant be any different from getting sick while you’re immunocompromised?

Unless you DO get compensated differently for chronic illnesses in France. If so, I take everything I said back

(am I assuming correctly that autocorrect changed “I’m wondering” to “in win-win”?)

From what I saw, they don’t really know since the basement has been renovated. What I want to know is how they sealed it in a way that could be reversed

I’m sure it was quite impressive! The water just wasn’t all that deep like how it was portrayed in the movie and I was very disappointed to learn the truth

I looked into this after seeing Gladiator 2 (garbage movie, by the way) and calling them full scale naval battles is a stretch

The arena at the Colosseum only measured 79.35 × 47.20 meters, far removed from the dimensions of the Augustinian basin. A naumachia in the Colosseum could therefore not have been as grand as the previous ones. One can imagine a confrontation between the crews of several reproductions of warships, potentially life-size or reasonably close to it, but actual maneuvers or even floating seems doubtful. It is known that stage-props were used to represent ships, sometimes with mechanisms to simulate shipwrecks, both on stage and in the arena (Tacitus, Annales, XIV, 6, 1; Dio Cassius LXI, 12,2).
