That probably varies based on local culture. But I’ve never lived anywhere that it’s not the norm that unless otherwise stated in the invitation, the host is paying for the party.

4·2 days agoall the other things I said were to ensure that you have every capacity to vote how you truly prefer rather than being dictated to select one of a small group. If you currently don’t vote as a protest against the candidates, voting for “none of the above” accomplishes that while taking away the interpretation that you didn’t vote because you don’t care.
Make registration automatic and voting mandatory. Require ranked choice for every election of a person as well as a “none of the above” option. If a majority of voters pick “none of the above” as their #1 choice, hold a new election for that office with all new candidates.
edit: also make mail-in the standard for all votes.
always finding their way up onto the roof or gravitationally pulled into that one stupid post they could easily walk around.

On this issue, on this vote, you can take your own pick of any one of the over 200 House Democratic representatives who voted to restrict Trump’s authority. Or not. If you want to choose to ignore the good things they do that’s on you.
My experience is that the more leftist voters will sit it out unless they have someone they want to vote for, while the more rightward voters are very excited to go and vote against someone. We saw in 2024 that the Uncommitted vote has power. More people should show up in the primaries like that. It tells the nominee and the campaign strategists that there are active voters in that district who’s votes need to be earned still. And it’s public record that they voted in the primary so those voters can expect to be canvased to give their feedback on the issues.

14·9 days agoSo 25 years after the first Xbox … they’re finally realizing the original promise?
Only 98% of the Democratic representatives voted differently than the Republicans! The whole lot are totally indistinguishable!
Cuellar just won his primary by 21 points.

It didn’t. You just go up earlier and pretended.
We did year round DST in the 70s and it resulted in kids being hit by cars on the way to school in the winter.
Heart attacks and strokes are more frequent after DST starts
No they enacted permanent DST in the 70s. OP is asking for arguments against ending DST. The backlash against permanent DST in the 70s was because kids going to school in the early morning darkness were being hit y cars.
We already tried year-round DST in the 70s. It didn’t last through the first year because kids were getting hit by cars on the way to school in the early morning darkness.
Yeah, just have to be up front about it so people know what to expect.
