This is banned in my city specifically because idling cars produce a ton of localized pollution. I can go some places in the summer and basically get sick walking through a parking lot because it is filled with idling cars and I have (fairly mild) asthma. Please do not idle your car for only the purpose of maintaining temperature .
The part a lot of people miss in these threads is that European commutes are often also an hour on public transit, but that one hour radius is wider and there is actual useful last mile service in the suburbs. That’s the big thing the US frequently lacks - the development patterns mean there’s no way to run frequent busses that don’t just get stuck in traffic. So in the US that one hour transit commute can easily turn into 90 minutes or more if you don’t make connections, whereas in European cities it’s much easier to plan around.
Urban busses will be slower than driving in most situations since they have to stop every few blocks. That’s not really unique to the US. The exceptions are where there are BRT routes which can avoid commuter traffic, and this is becoming more common in the US but still lags behind the best European systems.
Don’t discount the impact of reactionary anti-incumbent sentiment these days
There is absolutely an appetite for a third way/labor/social democrat party if we had a parliamentary system. I actually bet we’d see the entire country shift “left” under those conditions a lot more than people realize, as giving lefties and neolibs room to operate independently would properly marginalize a lot of Republican politics.
Good, but you should pretend like it’s the greatest thing since sliced bread around any conservative associates.
Make sure you lie to all of your Republican friends about how excited you are for a real party where real Americans can meet in the middle!
OP, how often do you think you are supposed to clean the bathroom?
That’s just the multipolar world kicking in.

You can’t get enough people to vote for your cause, but you can get enough people to fight and die for it?
Even if your vanguard does win, what do you do with the people who don’t agree with your methods after the dust settles? What lengths will you go to I order to “protect” the revolution?
I beat my dick into submission daily.
Bravo, I legitimately cannot tell if this is meant to be satire or tankie brain rot
Literal jump the shark moment for humanity
Man, this makes me wonder if maybe robotaxis might finally be the thing that gets people to take road safety enforcement seriously. Like imagine if Tesla advertises that their taxis will break speed limits because rare speeding fines are trivial to their business. Would this make people actually support speed cameras or hefty speed enforcement fines?

Good point, we’ll need at least two ball gags.
Yes, I’ve seen this one before. You start with a nice safe game of “who’s in my mouth?” And then once everyone is warm, you work your way up to ranked competitive sex. Before you know it everyone is too tired to be embarrassed.
It’s funny, when I was in high school and college, I felt a great sense of pride in “conquering” my partner’s home, but as a married adult it does give me some mild ick to get frisky in the guest bed. I mean I still will, but there’s definitely a loss of enthusiasm and willingness to do certain things.
The part which seems under reported is that for a long time USCIS basically had an amnesty policy for expired visas while the next one was pending. I’d wager a very large percentage of people in the US who went from student/work visa to marriage residency technically overstayed their visa while the paperwork was being processed. There is no law which allows or otherwise protects this “paperwork amnesty,” even though it has been long standing administrative policy. This administration could therefore go after anyone who was naturalized in this way. And for no reason other than they think this is red meat for their base who just really hates all immigrants for some reason.
