You would think, but you also have to remember: Canadians are also stupid. They’re us, just a decade behind.

Yep. And those dumb motherfuckers will repeal the CHIPS act my state is already using.

Espresso machine I’ve been wanting to buy.

Solar panel system for the house. (this one will get WAY more expensive)

Very thankful my girlfriend and I got ducks this spring. They’ll be worth their weight in gold shortly enough.

Oh, that’s great. Good for you, Squid. My girlfriend and I were looking there or Spain. It’d be a nightmare to move, though.

Me @ them:

Where are you moving to? I’ve been looking, as well.

Genuinely curious: how can he? Does POTUS have control over the entire chain of command?

The generals will tell him no.

The United States has always been the best place for the mediocre white man.

Yeah, that’s fair. Especially in somewhere like California.

But yes, it’s absolutely wild. Just yesterday, in a very blue state, there was an army of Trumpers blocking like 3 intersections in their lifted trucks with Trump flags. They were screaming at everyone stuck watching the charade. It’s gotten, like you said, psychotic.

You’re right. Tactical is the more common name. I see them listed both ways. But yeah, you can get those cheap as hell. While not beginner friendly, they’ll do the job if the biggest concern is cost.

And that’s true, but I think it’s important to note that Trump is a symptom, not the disease itself. The disease is his base, and the corruption of their belief in democracy. I hope I’m wrong, but I feel like we’ll see this level of politics for a while more.

But good on you for doing the footwork! And thanks for linking those instances!

Met my current partner at work. The funny part is I had given up completely, after going on dates with enough people, but just not really connecting with any. My previous relationship was haunting me, and I carried a lot of damage from it. I just couldn’t overcome it, so, I gave up. Then, out of nowhere, this gorgeous, kind, bubbly, and incredibly intelligent girl just showed up in an IT orientation I was leading. We started talking eventually, and we’ve been together for 2 amazing years. I know it’s cliché, but sometimes you find what you’re looking for precisely when you’re not looking.

Before that I dated on apps, and I can confirm it was hell. It’s probably changed in the 3 odd years I was using them, but Bumble was by far the best app, at least in my area. On that app, it felt a lot more meaningful than Tinder or Hinge.

How has your dating life been, OP?

I think the best advice has been given by others.

I’m so sorry you’re going through this. Feel free to DM me if you need to vent, or if I can do anything to help.

It’s terrifying. If you’re in a position to, and don’t already have one, I’m encouraging everyone on the left to get a decent gun. Cheapest option is an assault 12 gauge. These people are full on, insane fascists. Their “day of retribution” will be a lot harder to impossible if we’re armed.

Ah, yes. Trypophobia pancakes.

I’m not sure if it’s still valid, but there was that whole debacle where he fired every secret service agent except for ones that backed him politically.

For sure! I would rather have a burn than a burn with plastic/rubber in it, though.

Gloves and hot oil do not mix well. Good way to get gloves melted to your hand.

English names tend do just get characters that sound phonetically like their English pronunciation. As such, a lot of names, especially longer ones, don’t mean anything. If you directly translated them, a lot of the time you’d get like “cabbage the horse wheel” or something.

Just look at the front “bumper”. It’s triangular, and made of metal. If it hits a pedestrian, unlike other cars that try to bump and deflect the pedestrian up onto the hood, the Cybertruck will cut the pedestrian in half with that angle. Also, because it’s metal, there is NO give. That could even be dangerous to other cars, let alone pedestrians and cyclists.

That’s just one aspect, though. You got 3 others from another commenter, making the Cybertruck tonight’s biggest loser.
