yea, I’m on this train.
yea, I’m on this train.
paid leave is the first answer that would get me to vote in person.
I can’t believe none of you wait in lines haha, it’s good to hear but absolutely surreal.
I don’t think I’ve ever been to a voting office without waiting for at least half an hour.
I like voting early just so I get confirmation my vote was counted and if anything goes wrong I have a few weeks to deal with it.
your method sounds good too.
that’s a good point.
has anything significantly swayed your local election preferences this year?
feel free to make up an analog situation to avoid revealing anything personal.
you can track your mail in ballot, but I do like what you’re talking about, leaving physical recordings and evidence of you voting.
milkshakes are convincing.
you can track your mail-in ballot and receive a notification when it’s received and tallied.
but it’s nice to ride around. get a chore done.
using an electronic voting machine?
with mail in voting, you got a notification after your ballot is counted and you can track and follow up on it on its journey.
couldn’t the same vote invalidation happen whether you vote in person or by mail if you’re worried about your state poll workers?
I have had the exact opposite experience, but I’m glad in-person voting works for you
oh great. yeah that totally makes sense.
I always waited in lines lines in an uncomfortable, stressful atmosphere, so I prefer the quietude at my own time in my own home.
Good luck with your son, I’m sure you guys will figure it out.
paranoia. I am familiar.
you get a confirmation email in the states I know about after your vote is counted early, so you know that your vote was received and recorded.
how would voting in a person make it more difficult for the non-federal employees to throw away your vote versus federal employees in a federal building?
or does it just feel-better-in-person?
I’m just curious about personal experiences here, you should definitely go in person if you prefer that.
oh, cool.
that makes sense.
i’ve usually lived in busier places, so there was always long lines and just everything was a mess.
and I’ve never lived close, so it was always a chore to get there in the first place.
nice!
The suburbs of cities are where I always go. nobody in the city likes to drive for 30 minutes to a neighborhood theyre unfamiliar with, and everyone coming from outside is just trying to get into the city, so there’s always good stuff around the rim.
I will say I got lucky one time jogging and I turned back on the final block before my house and there was a pretty big flat screen just sitting on the sidewalk with a sign taped to it that said free.
so i picked that up and hauled it the last block.
lucked out on that one.
pretty cool, i highly recommend.
all the people saying"hungry" are incorrect, your body locks into new eating patterns pretty quickly.
if you start OMAD, one meal a day, after a couple days you don’t get hungry until the food window you normally eat at.
fasting gave me a sense of control over my body that I hadn’t really accessed before.
I also just felt a little high after a few days, so things are a lot more interesting in general while fasting.
I like fasting, I do omad everyday, 2 days every now and then and I’ll fast 4 days to a week occasionally.
you know what else is really cool about fasting, my runny nose and all the little itches and all that stuff are gone.
I should stop talking, I can talk about this forever.
give it a whirl, fasting is fun.
saves a ton of time too, once you realize how much time you spend commuting to/from or consuming food or using the bathroom because you eat three or five or seven times a day.
Time that could be spent on lemmy answering questions about not eating hahaha.
lying on my back, relaxing all my muscles, calmly, slowly “repeating” sleep in ny mind until i fall asleep
oh, and I resisted using eye masks for years, but blocking out as much light as possible helps so much.
blackout curtains are amazing and worth every penny.
I would say Marceline, but adventure Time kind of kicked that overdue revival into high gear.
you can have what feels like real conversations here fairly regularly, which are exceedingly rare on reddit.
No, but I’ll definitely check it out.
thanks for mentioning it.
well I like the Halloween song and the zombie cartoon, that’s good fun.
“you’re not reading a goddamn thing that I write”
I’m reading all of your vague irrelevant implications, they’re just completely immaterial to what we’re talking about.
they don’t matter, so I don’t care.
“You’re dishonest in your approach to the conversation”
your claim is that Israel is not committing a genocide according to the definition of genocide.
you have no evidence to support your claim.
according to the definition of genocide, Israel is committing genocide against Palestine right now systematically persecuting their ethnicity, culture and nationality.
you have no rebuttal to the genocide and you have no evidence for your false claim.
“Have a good day”
done and done.
be cool. they’ll be cool.
