Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Right, the wife of the VP does dishes and cares for kids.
Is that for real? “Yes, she’s a woman who knows her place, and that place is in the kitchen and at home with children”
Come on, everyone knows that women are way too airheaded to remember their wedding rings. How they are allowed to drive and vote is beyond me!
/s
I mean... They're Republicans, so that's sort of a given. Frankly, it's a small surprise that she's allowed to speak for herself at all, so far she really hasn't. I assume that's how JD likes to keep it, "seen, but not heard."
Yep, exactly.
Thats not even a joke or hyperbole... that is exactly how at least half of Republicans think, and have always thought, for my entire life.
You can almost picture the room full of high paid political consultants brainstorming and workshopping "relatable reasons to not wear your ring"
"Quick, someone ask AI for the top 5 reasons moms remove their wedding rings"
Let's see, when do I take my ring off ....
kneading dough-yes
Huh, I always take it off when I shower or wash more than a couple dishes. I actually don't think I've been swimming or hand-washed my car since I started wearing it, but I'd probably take it off then too. If my hands are soaking wet, it can work its way off.
No idea why you'd take it off for any of the others. Maybe certain kinds of hand tools? Simple bands are usually fine even in professional kitchens. I'll admit I got a little worried when I got an induction stove, but my ring has yet to burn me while cooking.
Who takes off a ring to carry groceries or vacuum?
Any kind of rotary tool/machine really. If your ring gets grabbed by any spinning equipment it can pull you into the machine or deglove your finger.
I don't really wear my ring unless I'm going out somewhere nice with my wife because I work with a lot of heavy machinery.
Agreed, but I don't really think of any power tool when I think of "hand tools". That's like hammers and screwdrivers and wrenches and stuff.
Drills, dremels, anything with a motor is a "power tool" to me. I take my ring off whenever I work with a power tool it could possibly get caught on.
Right and the bruising is from all the handshakes...
