This is a test case. There are some deep Christofascist pockets behind her.

I’m autistic. We have problems of our own, we don’t want him.

Sadly, that’s the kind of bullshit that resonates with the average, low-info commuter.

A two hour commute in an electric car is still two hours in crushing, soul destroying traffic. People ask me why I take a train and a freeway bus for my two days on campus, and I ask them why not? My drive is three minutes from my house to the train.

But in suburban Southern California, public transit is “for freaks and losers.” That was deliberate marketing.

Meanwhile in the states, MAGAs thank their Party for robbing them. #SAD

One-half a Darth Vader.

Make those poors pay for Frank Freeway’s car commute!

I live in the San Diego area, and both our public transit agencies have the bus side privatized. Same shitty service and poor security for years. Meanwhile, the media labels public transit as something for freaks and losers, which provides a great reason not to improve it.

I agree with the general consensus, there is no “white” culture per se, uness you’re talking about the bad craziness of nationalism.

What I think OP means is “plain vanilla American culture.” And that’s the thing. The US is so huge, so comparatively young as a nation, that it’s hard to even have a culture.

Furthermore, anywhere you go in the states, you have pretty much the same TV, same radio from central locations, news anchors from the same school, holding the same rip ‘n’ read newscast. The corporate world has skin in this game. Keep us homogenized and you keep us focused on the consumer culture they want us to have.

That said, we Americans who don’t identify with any ethnicity do have cultures, but it’s based more in what we do. Bikers, goths, snowboarders, rail fans, Trekkies, and then some. Those are all cultures.

Then too, when we try to do culture, because of our media obsession, it often becomes a parody. Case in point, I once went to an Oktoberfest here in California. I saw people wearing stereotypical “German” costume, playing a Polish-American wedding game (Chicken Dance) and singing an Italian children’s song (Rooki-Zooki). That’s about as all-American as it gets.

And now Pooters has the photographs, eh? Could be taken on holiday? Wink wink, say no more, nudge nudge?

Technical, but no mention of the social, psychological, or emotional aspects of sexuality.

Female orgasm was literally never discussed or even spoken of. This was in the very conservative city of Anaheim, in very conservative Orange County, California.

May the odds be ever in your favor.

I’m on the autism spectrum, with very low support needs. My health care provider has that in my medical records. Now I’m worried that I’m going to disappear into some camp, and my wife will never know what happened.

Capitalism. Cruelty Is the point.

A sense of community, at least in the states. We have become a nation of de facto sovereign citizens, everyone competing with everyone. A society can’t last long without social responsibility.

This is exactly why the corporate world is trying to abolish it.

That aircraft will have so many bugs hidden, the Qataris will know every time Orange Foolius cracks a fart.

I would eat the hell out of that.
