  • Unless I have the law wrong, he skirted the law. He didn’t pay anyone to vote (although he originally said he was), he technically only paid them to sign a petition. The law afaik only says you can’t pay people to vote (regardless of who, in Wisconsin you straight up cannot pay people to vote at all), you can pay them to sign a petition.

    However I would argue that by first announcing that the money would go only to people who voted and then subtly changing it later is still totally a form of bribery. People absolutely voted for a chance at that money because of his original statement and didn’t know it changed. But I’m going to go out on a limb here and say he’ll be 100% fine because of technicalities (aka he’s rich as shit and is completely untouchable)



  • I do. I can’t stand it because where I live it means I will no longer see the sun. Not to even mention how much it sucks ass from a mental standpoint to get out of work and have it be dark. I could not care less if I see a tiny bit of sunlight on my way to work lol. I’ve had multiple jobs where once ST hits, I’m going to work and coming home in darkness. I literally dont see the sun until the weekend. Imo give me whichever option that maximizes sunlight during most people’s free time.


  • Me too. I think a lot of ppl do as it literally gives (most) people more daylight to actually do stuff since most people work until like 3-6pm. Another side effect during ST is it crowds things that require daylight on the weekends. The days (in the northern hemisphere) are already shorter, add ST on top of it and now all the things that require daylight that people want to do after work have to wait until the weekend because they just don’t have enough time. Then the weekend comes and everyone is there because they all had to wait. Once DST comes there’s always noticeably smaller crowds cause now at least some people are able to go during the week.







  • I do absolutely think that going on podcasts and streams are a fantastic way to get younger voters. They certainly aren’t watching msnbc or cnn or Fox news or something like that.

    Trump’s spree of twitch streams and podcasts just before the election seemed to do wonders. Granted it’s anecdotal but I work with tons of highschool and college aged kids and I cannot tell you how many kids I heard saying how awesome he was with Adin Ross or logan Paul or Theo von or Joe Rogan and on the Flagrant podcast etc.

    There are obviously a shit ton of other things the Dems should be doing and not looking hilariously out of touch in almost every appearance is probably #1 but I think avoiding podcasts and streams is a very dumb move at this point.
