Reply to induction stoves are complete dog shit by emma
I wish I knew the brand of induction stove we used at my old kitchen job, it didn't have any issues with the controls.

I wish I had an answer for you, but I doubt going around door to door and asking "are you undocumented and in need of assistance?" would get you anywhere. I would just try to find your local leftist group and see what they're like / if they're any good. Then maybe you guys can investigate conditions in your area and brainstorm ways of reaching out to people. We had decent luck with movie nights plus a discussion afterwards to introduce our organization to people.

Reply to Hate people who disrespect tap water by neku
I'm lucky to live in a city with a large natural aquifer, so our tap water is very clean. But there are still people here who will balk at drinking tap water, and only buy bottles of water. Meanwhile, I will only open a plastic bottle of water if I'm dangerously dehydrated, and there are no other sources of water available. I'll drink from a public bathroom sink before I create needless plastic waste.

So many good ways to enjoy potatoes! I had some cubed roasted potatoes with roasted broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots last week. It was transcendental!

Reply to An immediate horror: New site "VoteRef" is publishing voter history, location, age, and address data. You can find any registered voter by name or address, or vice versa. by twovests
If it makes you feel any better, I had a conversation one time with an elder butch activist, who said she went undercover as a skinhead at a fascist rally. The fascists read off her full name and address, and those of her fellow activists at the rally, and the other fascists cheered and called for violence against them. But, nobody ever showed up at her house. Given that millions of people voted for Harris, I'm not too worried about maga fascists tracking down and harassing every single one of them.
Edit: I also know people who have been listed on Key Wiki, and never had anything happen to them.

I'm the same way, and that also makes me feel kind of guilty. My friends are going to be targeted, but I won't be. But I have to stick around and help them fight.

Reply to The Conservative forums are pretty big on the "you should explain your views every chance you get" thing by twovests
I don't think they're wrong for wanting to seize opportunities to educate people, because that's what I try to do with leftist topics. It's what they believe that I object to, which is why I'm glad this individual chose to roll their eyes and disengage.

This is what unity-struggle-unity was made for. But not enough leftists want to actually practice principled struggle.

Reply to comment by twovests in tonight we find out if I'm opening my celebratory bottle of wine, or my "we're so fucked" bottle of vodka by cowloom
I guess I should clarify I don't actually have either of those bottles, it's just a metaphor for how I'm feeling

Reply to can someone tell me how valid a "mental health day" is by twovests
needing a mental health day every once in a while: valid
needing mental health days frequently: still valid, but probably a sign to find a therapist
