Pulling the ultimate pranksie by installing a clapper

Maybe they’re the filthy sinner and got left behind

What the fuck is wrong with you?

Even though that is an enormous win, I don’t know if I would give up 10 years of my life for 50 million dollars. I’m glad it was dealt with while he’s still relatively young and can hopefully spend some of that money to get therapy that he needs to get past that

Got my first real concussion on one of those things. All I remember is that one minute I was flying off of it and the next minute I was at home and I had been there for several hours.

I think you’re overlooking the potential.

I don’t give up on anybody because they all have the potential to have their Ebenezer Scrooge moment and change until they no longer have any moments.

The potential for Ashlii Babbitt to become a good and upstanding contributing member of society was lost because of her blind following of the orange turd.

That is her fault. It’s still a sad thing.

I feel bad for her but I feel worse for the person who felt like they had no other choice but to shoot that woman, and I am glad that it only took one bullet to stop the insurrection.

Saving this for when I finish my CJ7 project

Because once or twice a year I take a road trip and the last thing I want to do is to drive for 3 or 4 hours and then stop for 45 minutes to recharge.

It’s actually something that is important to me. And I know there’s an argument for getting a rental internal combustion engine vehicle for my road trips but that’s an extra expense and extra mental overhead I don’t want to deal with.

I could be persuaded to purchase an electric car if it was reasonable, with a reliable 200 and some odd miles plus between charges and it was very cheap, but I would be talking 12 to $15,000 with those limitations.

In between 350 and 550 miles per tank depending on how I’m driving it (city vs hwy).

It’s a 2020 Chevy Malibu premiere.

If it’s all highway miles, yes, I get about 36 miles to the gallon on a 15 gallon tank. Mixed driving I get closer to 28 mpg. 2020 Chevy Malibu.

So what if it was a Chinese car that was imported through Chevrolet and Ford and assembled in America using 100% made Chinese parts?

There are similar occurrences in the past with ice vehicles.

If they sold cars that killed the owners, then they wouldn’t be able to sell more cars.

Sure you can have pessimism, totally understandable, but you should temper that pessimism with a modicum of pragmatism.

If it had a reliable 500 miles between charge, plus minus 50 mi depending on drive, I would be fine with it. My primary complaint with EVs is that right now they don’t have the distance to make me happy with them.

I want to be able to get into a vehicle and drive for 6 hours straight without a charge reliably for the life of the vehicle.

I won’t do that very often, but it’s still something that is a make or break option for me.

I mean, I’m sure this only came up because he was specifically asked by the student or the student’s friends to use their preferred name and he said, “Jesus would send me to hell if I did!”, which is terrifying.

Not terrifying in the idea that Jesus will send you to hell for using a trans person’s preferred name, because he won’t, but terrifying that somebody believes that and lives their life worshiping a horrible monster that would do that to a human being.

I mean Florida just looks bad because all of their court stuff is public. Saying that Texas is the second worst state is just peremptorily disqualifying Alabama Mississippi Georgia Kentucky and like 7 other states from fair competition.

Gimli was in it too

It’s because they made it up. No one has ever referred to Oregon as a small Minnesota before.

They are stretching the story to fit the truth.

Washington is above the red spot. The red location is Oregon.

A native American in the general is somebody that’s native to the Americas.

There are native Americans in Mexico and in all South American countries as well.

You are correct.

Everything about their argument is stupid and regressive and part of a shoddly orchestrated attempt to restore slavery to America and to take away the rights of anybody other than wealthy white men to vote or own property.

But if it were argued in good faith, this one point is a point that makes sense to me, that likely not every person who fought for the Confederacy was a racist, there were likely a few of them who fought to “protect their way of life” not knowing that they were fighting to keep slaves enslaved.

Even with saying that, the grand majority of them, I’m willing to wager 97% or more of them, were by all accounts racist and were fighting to maintain their claim to white superiority.
