As a former Georgia voter who voted in 2020 you can thank me in some Best Buy coupons for his upcoming mugshot.

I can't afford an electric car, but I'm looking to buy a car this summer that gets twice the mileage or more than our cars do now. That would halve my main carbon output which is a goal for 2030 that the world has neither the desire or the decency to achieve.
I definitely understand budget constraints. I was privileged enough to get a decent paying job in the past couple of years and bought a used 2019 Chevy Bolt since it's one of the cheaper EVs with a decently long-range battery. It's ugly (the newer ones less so, but Chevy is discontinuing it in favor of the Equinox) but it pairs well with having a regular hybrid, my wife's car, or something else where you won't have to worry about stopping for long-ish periods of time on big road trips. You generally have to pay more for registering your vehicle since the state doesn't get any gas tax off of it, but you make that up quickly in saving on actual gasoline, especially now that I'm in the PNW where gas is like a dollar or more than TX and the South East.
The used models really aren't that expensive now either, but it does cost some to add a dedicated circuit and charging unit in your home if you want that even with rebates. I've done that twice now though since I moved from Georgia (where I bought the car) to Oregon.

Why aren't we putting the daughter on blast? She's an adult.
Rarely post here anymore because all it does is just piss me off with the state of everything, but fuck this piece of shit, her evil mother, A&M, and everyone else in this story that immediately threw this professor under the bus. It's easy to just say fuck Aggy but god damn I'm even disgusted at how spineless everyone in this story is.

The free market in action, solving all of our problems! Remember that Government regulation couldn't address this problem the way smart and very serious and not extremely evil CEOs could.

This team man, this one and a half month stretch has to rival those dominant 90s teams. Ron Washington's entire infield is going to the All-Star game.

Anyone else see Harris rob Schwarber of a HR? Good lord is that guy athletic.
Bought my first ever jersey (this year's city connect Braves jersey) and took my wife to her first Braves game at Truist a couple weeks ago as we're actually about to move from the Atlanta metro area to the West Coast in a couple of weeks.

This shit with Target feels bleak. I understand not wanting your extremely low-paid teenage employees to feel threatened, but you know DAMN good and well this kowtowing is only going to embolden fascists.

Godspeed. I'd like to do the same at some point but we're kind of tied in to Dallas due to my wife's relationship with her in-laws as they move into their late 70's. I've got one kid about to be a senior in HS and another who is a freshman. Once they're both out of HS, it makes it easier for us to consider leaving too.
I understand, if our daughter was several years older it would probably be a lot more difficult. Thankfully she is still fairly young and extremely extroverted compared to me and my wife and can adapt to a big change easier right now.
My mother is in bad shape physically but not quite on death's door. My dad is her caregiver, but he's so incredibly stubborn that he's refusing to make the big changes now that will make their lives easier when she really becomes debilitated over the next few years, like outright refusing to have us pay for a geriatric care manager. I just went through some very rough shit with my MIL and my BIL suddenly fighting every decision my wife was making despite never coming to really see her. I feel guilty about moving almost 3000 miles away but I just don't have the patience and energy with a young kid right now to push my dad to get them out of their house. I was more or less a single dad for my daughter for most of 2020-2022 while my wife cared for her mother then battled severe depression after her death, I'm emotionally tapped out for a while.
Sorry for the look-at-me venting, but it's been a shitty two and a half years and my wife and I are basically ready to start a new and hopefully different chapter in our lives.

6 hours ago, Seasick Sailor said:These have gotten harder since I became a father. I haven't told my wife about Allen, and I'm not sure she knows. We don't watch much TV these days and her social media exposure pretty much consists of Instagram shit about raising kids. She is already discussing moving to another country before our son starts school. I honestly don't know what to do. I'm a lawyer, so even moving to a different state is complicated. Another country is virtually impossible. Am I just supposed to send my wife and son out into the world and hope their number doesn't get called?
Maybe I'm just exhausted, but It's time to take all the fucking guns. I'd rather have a dozen Wacos or Ruby Ridges as the feds round up the weapons than one more Allen, Uvalde, Parkland, Sandy Hook, Aurora, etc. For the "I-need-my-gun-to-stand-against-tyranny" crowd, I say here's your chance motherfuckers good luck. I honestly don't give two shits if that means a lawful gunowner can't enjoy his or her hobby. Take up golf.
My wife and I moved from Texas back to my home state of Georgia in 2015 and then had our daughter a year and a half later, all with the plan to try and get closer with my family. We made the decision last year to move somewhere pretty far away. Most of the reasons are because of interpersonal issues like my wife made her aging mother move in with us at the start of COVID and was diagnosed with Alzheimer's with Lewy Body features and passing away last year (my wife was so close with her mother but refused to leave Fresno until she had fairly advanced dementia), as well as my parents really not doing much to help us out at all raising our daughter (she's almost six now and my wife and I haven't ever had a night alone together, one of us has always been with our daughter).
Georgia is doing 80-90% of the shit that Texas's and Florida's GOP controlled legislature are enacting but without the media fanfare. Even with our Presidential and Senate elections flipping the GOP still easily controls our state legislature because of intense gerrymandering. If this weren't happening I'd probably not be so keen to leave, but that's not the case and it only looks like White Christion Nationalism is going to keep being enshrined legally. So around summer of last year, after my wife's mother passed, we very strongly considered Canada (liked talked to two separate immigration consultants and took separate trips to Toronto and Hamilton to evaluate housing) as my company has a huge Canadian employee base mostly in Ontario. They were going to be able to sponsor us through CUSMA and my wife would get a work-permit after we moved.
Because of my wife's work permit being completely tied to me first and the fact that British Columbia and Ontario (you know, the provinces you'd probably move to) make anyone who isn't a permanent resident pay an extra 20% on a home purchase to combat foreign investors from snatching crap up, we decided to stay in the US but move to a much more progressive state, one where hopefully reproductive rights wouldn't be basically abolished and one where being gay or trans would basically become criminalized. We debated between Washington and Oregon and landed on Oregon after my wife's LCSW license was accepted there (WA wasn't going to be as easy). We're really going to miss our neighbors, the younger ones of which have kids closer to our daughter's age and are more progressive than the white boomers who mostly eat up Tucker Carlson's talking points.
We'll be in the Portland area, in a pretty nice area, but I realize we're trading the culture war problems of the South with a lot of the homeless and petty crime that's plaguing much of the PNW, but I'd still much rather deal with that than living in a state where you can't get an abortion after six weeks, can't teach about the history of racism in schools, and have to deal with unhinged RWNJs who are allowed to conceal carry without a permit.

About to lose it, I need to get the fuck off social media and just work. The parents and three year old are dead, the five year old is alive.

We have a decent percentage of posters on this site that would agree with a lot of what’s posted over there. They’re just smart enough not to come in here and post it.
I haven't posted on here much in the past couple of years, but yes Shaggy and early Surly a ton of these posters, who are still posting, made it very clear that their right to own guns trumped all, including dead kids.

Nah, Falcons will have Bijan, Allgeier, and Patterson next year. And Allgeier is signed through '25. Even with a rush-heavy attack they shouldn't have to run Bijan into the ground.
Patterson carried so much of the workload in 2021 and the beginning of 2022, but I think this pick signals they won't use him nearly as much unless Bijan really struggles somehow adapting to the game. Allgeier started getting tons of carries and started eating into Patterson's workload it felt like.

carter would have bad news in AtlantaYou've no idea how many UGA fans hate the Falcons because they almost never select Dawg players in the first two rounds. This was basically the reverse of the Falcons passing on Todd Gurley several years ago when he was available.

I fucking love Bijan, but I'm not sure my Falcons needed another RB when we really are shit on defense and had a decent run after the mid-point of last season.

Didn't help that they hit god damn near every single free-throw in the last ten minutes too.

Moved up to Portland, OR a couple months ago and it's crazy how many Braves fans I've ran into up here.
