In virtually all of arizona corporations are allowed to pump unlimited water for free from their wells. In rural arizona, where I live, houses are going abandoned because peoples wells are drying up and they cant afford new wells. The only areas where corporations arent allowed to deplete our water resources are called AMA's and INA's. Governor ducey recently allowed for corporations to pump unlimited water for free in the pheonix AMA. Arizona department of water resources fights citizens when we try to form new AMAs. The energy and water committee in the house has been sitting on multiple pieces of great legislation that could actually improve water law. Gail griffin is at the head of that committee and has completely stalled progress. The ground in the wilcox basin has literally dropped 10 feet since the 1960s due to unregulated corporate wells. The water table in the wilcox basin dropped 8 ft last year alone. The aquifers in arizona have a slow recharge rate. The water is ancient and takes centuries to replenish. We allow people to grow alfalfa, a very water intensive crop, in the desert than sell it and ship it to Saudi Arabia. That's how cheap it is to grow alfalfa here, due to our water laws. You can ship it to saudi arabia and still make a profit. Future generations will struggle immensely in this region if we dont act and change our ass backwards water laws. I hope you can all join me at the arizona water defenders facebook page and/or r/arizonawater.

Go post NSFW jokes somewhere else. If I can't tell my kids this joke, then it is not a DAD JOKE.
If you feel it's appropriate to share NSFW jokes with your kids, that's on you. But a real, true dad joke should work for anyone's kid.
Mods... If you exist... Please, stop this madness. Rule #6 should simply not allow NSFW or (wtf) NSFL tags. Also, remember that MINORS browse this subreddit too? Why put that in rule #6, then allow NSFW???
Please consider changing rule #6. I love this sub, but the recent influx of NSFW tagged posts that get all the upvotes, just seem wrong when there are good solid DAD jokes being overlooked because of them.
Thank you,
A Dad.
So far nobody has given me a straight answer
..... Will get a reward.
Because they work on many levels
Well, toucan play at that game.
Windows
Martin Freeman, and Andy Serkis.

This is my first post pls don't kill me lol.
The people in the comment section is why I love this subreddit!!
Cred once again my sis wants credit lol
Keep in mind, my son is 4 years old, so everything is an original to him.
I had to work late into the evening yesterday, and he was just going to bed when I got home. I had left home for the office nearly 14 hours prior, had a long day, lots of meetings, traffic, etc.
When I walked through the door, I was exhausted, run down, and starving. My wife hugged me and asked how my day was, and I replied, "Done. It was a good day, but has got me exhausted. I just want to grab a bite and go to bed. I'm hungry."
From my son's bedroom, I hear him shout, "Hi Hungry! Nice to meet you!"
Not only did it make me laugh, but I completely forgot about how hungry and tired I was. I went to his bedroom, and we laughed together about it. It was exactly what I needed.
Edit: Thanks for all the awards, kind strangers! I'll let my son know y'all enjoyed his joke too!
I heard parents named their children lance a lot.
First post please don't kill me
Edit: i went to sleep and now my inbox is dead, thank you kind strangers for the awards!
