Certainly easier to convince them than career politicians at the national level

The answer to obstruction at every level of government is to push back at every level of government then.

That means getting involved in local government. You. Me. Us. All of us. Starting now.

True but nothings going to happen until we both demand it and actually do something about it.

The time to be hopeful that one of the major parties has an awakening is over.

Me too but how are we going to get that changed before the next election?

Before ranked choice voting we need at least one party to rally around with a candidate that focuses on popular issues. Once we have someone in office that will commit to those issues we can then talk about these kinds of changes.

A good place to start would be at the state level since states run their own elections. For that all I can suggest is to get more actively involved in local politics than you ever have before.

Of course, that’s assuming we have another election.

We could also do this ourselves, if we could find a way to organize it.

I’m sure with enough attention he’d acknowledge, and maybe support it.

It may sound silly but what’s the alternative?

I did. It took a while because I enjoyed it so much, but it worked better than anything else. It simulated the smoking experience, tasted great and was a fun little device to tinker with. Sure it made me look stupid but in return I got healthier lungs.

Of course I was wrapping my own coils and used a mech mod, the concept of a juul made it so stupidly easy to vape without understanding how it works and just programmed everyone to use cartridges.

And here we are.

When used correctly to wean and taper, vaping can be really helpful as a quit smoking aid.

When rapists can legally decide the mother of their child without her say in it you know shit’s fucked.

It’s literally a parody of biopics, which now that I think about it is the perfect way to make a Weird Al biopic.

Also based off a funnyordie video a few years ago with Aaron Paul as Weird Al.

He didn’t plug his business on his wedding day because he had the priest do it 😂
