“There was a lot of hate saying that Sammi, being a transgender individual, was taking the spot from somebody who was born female,” said Logan Thompson, student council secretary.

...

Dozens came out the meeting, leaving standing room only. Zero spoke out against Sammi being crowned queen, while Thompson spoke for the dozens who came in support.

That's the sort of behavior that should get you doxxed.

    Right? It’s beautiful to see.

    These people always say “just let kids be kids” and as soon as kids do something they don’t like it’s all “we must protect the kids”.

    Only a small portion of all content targets minors. The majority of content is for adults:

    • news
    • sports
    • porn
    • art
    • music

    They all target adults. I think if they meant to say porn, then they would have said porn.

    Questions for the public meeting:

    • How many jobs does operating a data center create?
    • How much power does it consume?
    • What tax would be assessed to this development?
    • How will electronic waste be disposed of? And hazardous waste?

    Fascist idiots gain power, bad things happen, fascist idiots refuse to take responsibility.

    This will continue happening until we rid ourselves of the fascists....

    I'm in deep redneck Pennsyltucky, and speed limits out here are more like suggestions. You'll pretty much never see any State troopers on the highway, so it's pretty common to see people going 80-90 in a 65 zone.

    Is that not the point of state inspections? That first rule is not going to prove ANYTHING about the safety of the vehicle, and the second one is just over-the-top in requiring it to effectively be like new. As a percentage of causes behind accidents, I would be surprised if not being up to design specs were a frequent enough cause to justify this - particularly in comparison to other more common causes like poor driving. Never mind that the timing of the questionable need for this economic hit is absurdly bad.

    while you very well could be correct, there is probably another angle where the intent is to prevent someone from slapping on a bunch of salvaged panels to hide underlying structural flaws in order to keep an unsafe vehicle off the streets. since we are given very few good alternatives to cars in much of the state, I'd rather know I can trust the machine driving next to me even if I can't trust the operator.
