Falcons do official, new uniform reveal -- (link) - Flavorize—father of Kraken Apr 8, 10:13 5

  - That said, I like the black blending into red jersey. As a fashion guru, I approve of the Falcons's new stuff. -- nm - crash davis Apr 8, 10:17 1

ACLU-GA files a federal lawsuit against the state of GA, alleging that the price of postage for voting by mail is a unconstitutional poll tax. -- nm - Strongbad Apr 8, 10:08 26

  - cool! -- nm - Strongbad Apr 8, 10:45
- Also reminds me that I still need to request our mail-in ballots for here. -- (edited) - znufrii Apr 8, 10:38
- Our most recent ones came with prepaid postage. I believe I've mentioned before - I've *never* been in a voting booth in my life. - Meg Apr 8, 10:13
- they have requested returnable envelopes with prepaid postage. -- nm - Strongbad Apr 8, 10:09 20
  - we don't have that in oregon. they have drop off boxes at government buildings and other places - Bacon Apr 8, 10:17 15
    - If you have to go to the polls, they have to staff poll places. Costs more than stamps for the state -- nm* - ty97 Apr 8, 10:23 2
      - We still have places you can vote that are staffed. We have vote by mail but you can also go to a poll -- nm - Bacon Apr 8, 10:24 1
        
        We fill out our ballad at home but drop it off in person because we don't trust the mail service - Bacon Apr 8, 10:26
    - I bet that will change -- nm - crash davis Apr 8, 10:18 11
      - Possibly, I thought it was challenged here already, but could be wrong. -- nm - Bacon Apr 8, 10:19 10
        
        It was -- way back in the day -- but I don't think the challenge ever went to trial. I'll try to dig up that case though. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Apr 8, 10:26 3
        
        I was gonna put in my IM flashes the RC signal -- nm - Bacon Apr 8, 10:27 2
        
        Wait a minute is this how you're getting billable hours by helping friends then sending a bill later? -- nm - Bacon Apr 8, 10:28 1
        
        Hey, everyone knows that if you ask a lawyer a question then you're gonna get a bill. How else am I gonna survive in this economy? -- (edited) - ReluctantCynic Apr 8, 10:34
        
        I think what we saw in Wisconsin will lead a lot of states (not all at first) to do things to make voting even easier. -- nm - crash davis Apr 8, 10:21 5
        
        Trump *literally* said yesterday during the press conference that Democrats only tried to delay the Wisconsin vote after he endorsed the Republican - oblique Apr 8, 10:29 1
        
        Yeah I saw that too. His ego is so huge that he thinks everything is about him. *smh* -- nm - crash davis Apr 8, 10:39
        
        Typical partisan divide will present, for the most part. - ty97 Apr 8, 10:24
        
        and I am only talking postage. The fact that half the ballots in some elections end up in the trash is the reason they don't do it. -- nm - Bacon Apr 8, 10:23
        
        Especially if COVID cases arise, let alone death(s). -- nm - VMan Apr 8, 10:23
  - Makes sense to me, but who knows what the courts will say -- nm - ty97 Apr 8, 10:12
  - I mean, yeah. - znufrii Apr 8, 10:11
  - I'm not opposed to that -- nm - crash davis Apr 8, 10:10
  - I was just going to say SASEs. -- nm - VMan Apr 8, 10:09

- carbonara! Actually I'm making some devilled eggs right now -- nm - crash davis Apr 8, 10:09
I've had some carbonaras with fresh peas that I've liked. -- nm - crash davis Apr 8, 10:08

Moistly -- nm - Beaker Apr 8, 10:04
