honestly, it would be funny to ask california for funds to do that
Okay but experts are saying trump would only have to pay 800 million once to own it
so erm
skill issue
Uh, the lush green fields
its in the name
who wouldn't care
We had our fight with an island between us and denmark
sadly, both sides cucked out and split the island
Replying to Dane #princelydone if every culture got their own state you'd have the higher population countries dominate the smaller ones
I get that, but, I dunno. I'm sure there's a limit in size. I feel that America is too big and too culturally and geographically diverse for 1 set of laws to govern everything nicely.
Virginia will be in the news again soon for a non-story (fundraising thing)
we're threatening to redistrict and unabashedly jerrymander the state, because other states jerrymandered to support Trump
it won't happen because no one is actually in favor of fucking up the entire state to own Trump
but it makes a good sensationalist thing to fundraise on
we redistricted last year already
so the premise that we'd redraw the state again, while loudly proclaiming it's to jerrymander and nothing else, is just funny

Numerology people are legitimately all insane
(obviously)
their posts are always funny
So, after a 5+ year fight to make RealID a requirement for everything
they just gave up
"We need RealID to stop terrorists"
... or just pay $45 to bypass it
That’s so dumb
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 So, after a 5+ year fight to make RealID a requirement for everything
Many such cases of this
I have no idea where to post this. News = politics
Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131
I never understood why we couldn’t enforce realid, you just get it when you go renew your drivers license, how the fuck does everyone not have one at this point
I don't have one
By choice
But the reason it's not enforced is it's actually really hard to meet their threshold for getting one
You're supposed to bring 3 forms of identification to get one
Which most people legitimately don't have
So there are all these circumstances things that can count
But in the end, it's all bullshit
You can make up whatever you want, and get it put on an ID
