Because he did not have the best campaign staff and the Democratic party establishment preferred other candidates. His base was mostly young white people or college students who don't turn out to vote enough.

I've given up on it. While I think it was silly to remove, I've come to find it just as silly to be so attached to a cable. Bluetooth and USBC headphones have worked just fine for me.

I am more feminine, but sometimes enjoy having a cool edge or being tomboyish.

I'm bisexual, but more attracted to men and masc/butch women. Romantic attraction is the same.

Very buggy on my Pixel 7 Pro. Sticking with the older version for now

I can't be trans, I just spend 8 hours a day thinking about whether I'm trans or not for the past 5 years

I don't think a healthcare clinic is an appropriate place to try coming up with secret code phrases that not everyone knows and could be misunderstood.

I would feel safe if my nurse had a pride pin, or maybe stated her pronouns when introducing herself.

That's not really how it works. It would only make them look stupid if they did that, and increase the risk of being voted out in the next election. Because of the filibuster, legislation generally needs 60 votes in the Senate before it goes to the president. Democrats have 51 seats, with two frequent defectors. Imagine if Biden's record going into 2024 is that he vetoed every single piece of legislation.

Democrats have a slim majority in the senate, which is not enough to get whatever they want done without compromising, especially considering that two senators are not as left wing as the rest of the party.

As far as war and military spending goes, I agree that the party could do better.

He appointed three SCOTUS justices who proceeded to overturn Roe v Wade. Trump is responsible for abortion being illegal in more than a dozen states. But because he's not focusing on it in his 2024 campaign the media will somehow say he's "vague" on the issue. If Trump is elected you can certainly thank The New York Times for downplaying his threat to women's rights.

If you see something like that, it's best to block and report the user.

There hasn't been an election in Gaza since 2007, 16 years ago. Maybe they could have at least tried to have some sort of democratic process in that time? Palestine needs to appeal to the international community for support in negotiating with Israel. I agree Israel has not handled the situation humanley and has not done their best to negotiate peace either. However, Gaza is definitely not going to get anywhere under their current leadership, and this war had no chance of success for them, and their situation does not justify attacking or kidnapping civilians.

 

I've decided that I want to delete my reddit account. I want to remove all of my posts and comments first. What is the best way to do this? I've had the account for several years so it would be too tedious to delete everything individually. So far I've tried the Redact android app, which did not work when I signed in. I also tried the browser extension Bulk Delete Reddit, but it can only delete up to 50 posts or comments per day. Is there any other option?
