Running water and indoor plumbing was relatively common in the ancient world.

In 1920, only *** 1% of US homes** had indoor plumbing

@SteveKLord it should be obvious to you that 1,000x more powerful is absurd
honestly
this is probably not true
eg, read the best thing, IMO, written on 2016, then think about how often liberals talk about trump's plan to cut taxes on working people [ "plan" of course being BS ]
don't wanna read the link ?
Tl;dr
Trump supporters didn't pay attn to the crazy stuff; they just hear him say: When I am POTUS there will be jobs
thats it, thats the mesagge

If YIMBYs are in favor of turning parks into asphalt, then YIMBYs are bad
but terms and conditions apply; what I said is certainly true for NYC or Chicago, maybe not Bloomington
but in general the willingness of YIMBYs to pave over grass is IMO really bad IMO

that would be typical: first the media create a problem (hyping musk) then pretend they had nothing to do with the problem

@NoneOfUrBusiness @jimmydoreisalefty
yeah, but if the American people currently support biden, then if he shifts enough to get Muslim support he looses way more votes
and again, that the muslims think Trump is better
that is almost literally insane
@NoneOfUrBusiness @jimmydoreisalefty
The American people, according to the polling I have seen are pretty solidly behind Biden
Now this may seem strange here on mastodon, but that is reality
hard to understand how they think this helps
do they really think any Republican is gonna be better ?

and those guys are hardcore, and they run Linux, cause that is where all the cutting edge software is
and my boss asks them: Linux on the desktop for everyday use
and all the hardcore guys go: NO, it is way to much trouble
