Didn't even vote a symbolic no or abstain to make it not unanimous, just straight up voted for it

It's either extreme incompetence and nobody knows enough to fact check the projection or they are so terrified of the economic projections that they hope they can just trick people into spending money to boost number.
my gut tells me it's malice but I've seen so many people in real life abuse excel trendlines this way I'm leaning toward incompetence

this is a super common thing for semi-technical people to do in excel to impress non-technical management types

She said she would reluctantly do it, and then there's no way to know who actually did because they kept the vote unaccountable

But Omar admitted to voting yes iirc. As much as it pains me to say.

Wearing masks sucks. It's not fun, makes it a bit more difficult to breathe and if you wear glasses your poo poo gets fogged up. It's a necessary sacrifice to help at least curb the infection rate and people should suck it up and do it, but let's not pretend that it's a great and fun thing to do.

This is the latest culture war nonsense, where one side decides that doing a good thing like wearing a mask to curb the spread is not only important, but makes you a moral good person and you should not express any discontent with the situation, while the other side reacts to that with a "gently caress you i won't do what you tell me!" refusal to do the thing that is necessary but uncomfortable.

Republican, "The democrats are really slowing us down."

Democrat votes, "help up helps us. You loving democrats! why are you stalling? Do something or we'll vote you the gently caress out! you dumb loving pieces of poo poo."

*Pushes bill through quickly without much oversight. Banks suck up the money.*

You are not good at wearing a mask if you are having those problems. I had those problems for the first few weeks, but by now it is easy and almost second nature.

Wearing a mask doesn't make you a moral person, but if you are a moral person you are going to be wearing a mask in public right now.

The mask is irrelevant, it's just the easiest point because of how it is so visually prevalent. It's entirely projection by the snowflakes who are loving children and completely hung up on rude teen you can't tell me what to do energy that fox news has cultivated for over a decade. Same story with the hair cuts. Do these idiots actually want haircuts? No. It's just their rallying cry about the mean succ dems that DARE inconvenience them in order to save the lives of millions of americans.

I thought all the posts on social media were just jokes but can glasses havers really not figure out how to move the glasses like a fraction of an inch down your nose so they don't fog? They don't need to be pressed into your retinas 24/7.
