Also, I don't know the exact exchange rate, but given Bernie's policy stake I'm guessing $19 AUD converts to around $15 USD?

14.64 at the moment

Been a few years since I put litmus paper in a test tube of liquid.

Just take the acid

I’m not sure Bernie should be touting anything about Australia’s economy considering how much of it depends on digging various things out of the ground and sending it to China to use in a less then eco-friendly manner.

Is that you, “Girl at Party You Wish You Hadn’t Started a Conversation With?”

my Houston cousin went off on this too. she says the minimum wage should be equivalent to the price of a movie ticket which she thinks is around $11. I asked, "where are you getting $11???"
"well, I looked around at the local theaters to see how much a movie is."
you can't go by current prices since most theaters have slashed ticket prices to get butts in the seats. pre-COVID an evening movie ticket in ATL was $15 at LEAST.
that said, there's a mechanic job at my office that's been open for TWO YEARS because it only pays $27k per year which is only $14 per hour.

I think Ned is just a good old fashioned troll account.

100%. The fact that he is followed by Three Year Letterman and Dr. Congresswoman-Elect Karin Baker-Thompkins is a dead giveaway.

neds feed is like three year letterman where it's annoying when you follow it and see it every day but when you unfollow and see it pop up randomly every other week it's great. espeically when people take it seriously

Sinema is getting canceled for *checks notes* not supporting the end of the filibuster, which evidently is a big issue in the non-binary movement.

Postby **MalkinIsMyHomeboy** » Mon Jan 25, 2021 4:31 pm

I don’t care about what race/gender/sex someone is. If they don’t support removing the filibuster, I hate them

Postby **Troy Loney** » Mon Jan 25, 2021 4:32 pm

If you're a democrat and "against" the filibuster, you should be "cancelled" or just criticized for exercising poor judgement. The filibuster is idiotic.

I don't have strong feelings about it, other than that you should have to actually do the work...you should have to talk for X consecutive hours...do it right, or pay the price...

Postby **Freddy Rumsen** » Mon Jan 25, 2021 4:35 pm

The filibuster is not idiotic and y'all are just against it because you heard on Twitter/the Daily Show that Republicans like it.

Just admit you have no idea why it exists in parliamentary proceedings and Roberts Rules.

The only thing that needs to change is a switch back to actually talking. The "silent" filibuster does need to go.

freddy only using y'all when he's being condescending is my favorite part of this thread

Postby **Freddy Rumsen** » Mon Jan 25, 2021 4:49 pm

I literally y'all all the time.

Let's see some legit reasoning as to why it needs to go other than it's dumb I don't like it.
