Everyone misses this point. Lawyers have turned into leeches of society sucking the empathy and fun out of everything so everyone is scared to get sued. On the flip side its so god damn easy for corporate lackeys to say ‘no cuz lawyers’ just to make their job incrementally easier rather than actually doing it. Its a shitty cycle and I’ve seen it too much in corporate America.

Wow you invoked a name I hadn’t thought of in a very long time. Shit did I use that playing Unreal Tournament, StarCraft or was it late enough to be WoW?

Edit: final release 2003, guess it was unreal.

Here is the context you all are missing. The novel was offered for free so folks on Amazon could ‘buy’ it so it was number one on Amazon instead of the new documentary.

Just bought 10 acres and plan to grow the shit out of some veggies. I stare at a screen all day and deal with technical problems, at the end of the way I just want to dig in the dirt and stare at the plants.

From New England but I lived in Texas for awhile in the early 2000s and to me Tex-Mex is Mexican food made by gringos for gringos and Mexican restaurants were Meixcan food made by Abuelas.

I looked into Greece and the heritages citizenship went away for children born after thr early 80s.

Sweet summer child, did you read his shirt?

Different standards and playbooks because the democrats pander to largely educated voters who want facts and the illusion of accountability where as republicans pander to uneducated reactionary tribalism and any educated folk who allow themselves to be swept up in it. Some folks just need to be told what to think, others need to be convinced. You can call that imbalance if you like.

Faux feudal lord

That was my first thought, dude looked coked up…

Something I do which I’ve come to find is unusual is a Mexican-ish side dish. Soak and cook black beans. Then cook some onions in another pot, when soft add some cumin seeds and bloom then, deglaze with tequila, add the black beans and orange juice. Smash some of the beans to make it thicker. Cover and simmer for an hour. Its a magnificent side.

Dont be so rigid in your perspective. First off, when you are towing anything big your range always gets cut in half, it just matters more for electric. Still, my next vehicle will be the electric 150. I have solar panels for free electricity, the truck can also work as a whole house backup power station. It can plow, it can tow well for most of what I need to do, I can commute to work on solar and my whole family fits in it. Its a great truck, its not for everyone but it most certainly has its place.

To be more succinct, the way I always describe it is wealth is not just money, money is too abstract. Wealth is power and that degree of power should not be so concentrated in so few private individuals.

I was an American large T-shirt for most my life but for the last 10 years I have to get a medium. Americans are just getting too fat and companies dont want to upset them.

Sigh. 20 years ago. Thanks for that…

Greek American’s take: from left to right it gets more progressive, pointing out that even progressive Americans are still conservative in Scandinavia.

I feel similarly and to expand a bit its more the fact that second time around electing this fool proves that that majority of Americans are either horrible people or useful idiots which is incredibly depressing to know with certainty. For me, first time around was a fluke, second time is reality. I’m exploring citizenship elsewhere as a backup plan.

My daughter always helps me with oil changes. We love it.
