Totally get you on that one. Fortunately, usually when someone misuses one of those it's easy to figure out what they meant.
That being said, constantly using the word deport for illegally disappearing a citizen is far more egregious of a failure than mistaking decimate with devastate.
This is an excellent point. Perhaps my directive should be a little broader. I didn't really consider that facet!
Odds this targets mosques more than churches too… maybe not in the text but in practice.
Maybe so... but also catholic churches that do mass en espanol.
I foresee another catholic schism on the horizon. This isn't going to go over well with the Roman Catholics, but the American Catholics will cheer it on.
Interesting. I couldn't vote for this one, I was just on the other side of the line in Tanque Verde.
Would've just added to the "no's", but hey!
Turnout is pretty low, but that tracks compared to prior city-only elections. It's concerning nonetheless, I was hoping to see increased government engagement during times of economic stress, uncertainty, and the erosion of rights.
I say ban medians! Stroads are a blight on suburban civic engineering! /halfjoking
Agreed on aperture fever. I find 10" the largest manageable size unless you get an Obsession Ultra Compact for $$$$$.
Didn't really consider binos for OP since viewing anything more than 45 degrees up is a pain without a proper mount. A dob is easier to use near the horizon than using a bino to view straight upwards.
For 200 you could probably land yourself an old criterion telescope or used Skywatcher. The important part is the aperture. For good nebula and Galaxy viewing, you're going to want at least 6 in of aperture. But more is better.
Definitely check Craigslist, Facebook marketplace, and cloudy nights classifieds.
Sorry, bot was offline for a bit, when it turns on, it backposts a few days. You can block it if you like. It's really only supposed to be relevant to tucson locals.
It's caught up and won't post until something on the source RSS feed updates - as it usually does.
Hi @[email protected] , thanks for getting out the word. However, I'd like to ask that you provide a bit more locally relevant details if you're going to post here in /c/tucsonpolitics. This isn't a warning or anything, I won't even take down future posts if you don't - but I think it's a bit more effective in getting participation than generic calls to action.
Ideas:
Include the address of the protest site in your post description or as a comment.
Use an image that includes a simplified map.
Post en español with the language set as such, huge plus if you have graphics in español to match.
I can, of course, help, but consider how much impact the above could make in your outreach's effectiveness!
For what it's worth, I expect the governor to veto.
100%
So many self-identified progressives or leftists aren't deemed moral enough to even be allies with.
I have far more moderate friends than I do leftist friends.
I have more conservative friends than I do leftist friends.
And to become moral enough for the left, you need to cut out everybody else in your life except the left.
The left expects you to cut out all of your support network, but then refuses to be a support network in and of itself. Leftists are the shittiest friends I've ever had. The constant judgment and moralization just drove me away.
Oh, something that the Tucson Metro Chamber will surely push back on!
Oh wait, no? They just wanna suck off Juan Ciscomani for not gutting Medicaid today.
Huh, I'm beginning to think that the Tucson Metro Chamber doesn't give a flying fuck about commerce, just the predominantly white business owner class.
