For real, though. Pick the cop least likely to be on a power trip.

All the best cops wear high-viz

Don’t be a pedantic dick. He was saying that the generation of the Tacoma that is pictured here as the small truck was highly capable. There were 4wd versions produced and with a lift they were some of the most versatile vehicles ever made. There’s a reason why militaries added machine guns and artillery cannons to them sometimes. Don’t act like you don’t understand what they were trying to say.

That was great. I hope the ai that made that was also ironically and horrifically resource consuming.

Weird analogy.

Bernie Sanders 2024!

Yeah! Screw insulin pumps, we need glutathione pumps.

I wonder if the credit card processor takes their percentage of the transaction and then kicks some of that back to the retailer for donations. It seems like that would end up being a tiny amount of money, though.

If you know, why not take it down?

I think the new version of net metering pays homeowners less than it did previously, for power that they feed into the grid, disincentivizing rooftop solar.

Thank you for this great response. I’m genuinely interested in your perspective.

When you say that the right is losing the culture war, are you referring to things like the rights of women, minority groups, gay/whatever people, separation of church and state, and environmental protectionism, or am I misunderstanding?

Why does the right feel powerless and humiliated?

Do you care to elaborate on how Trump is revenge? I am honestly interested in your opinion.

I think these “self-righteous arrogant dick” people are a very small minority of Democrat voters, just as any unflattering stereotype of Republican voters is only an accurate representation of the most unpleasant members of that group.

I think part of the appeal of Donald Trump seems to have something to do with the fact that he is (or at least has been, or projects the appearance of being) rich and powerful, and then is just blatantly honest about the level of corruption and hypocrisy that the rich and powerful get away with. I think people like that honesty. Nobody wants to live in a rigged system.

However, (and I think this is the part where you’ll get frustrated with me) he seems to be highly and openly corrupt. I think he wants to make corruption and abuse of power seem normal so that when he does it, he can act like it isn’t a big deal.

It’s a big deal.

I have no credibility or relevant qualifications. I’m just some random moron on the internet, but here’s my opinion:

His base has been manipulated. They have a sunken cost. Each time something new and horrible comes out about Donald Trump, they have to either be OK with it or come to terms with the idea that they may have been wrong about him this whole time. They’ll react emotionally to this dilemma as if being wrong in this case would constitute a personal attack on their character.

Why sit there feeling sad when you could be making real progress towards being sad, fat, and gross?

Adam’s target audience must be teenagers. That was hard to watch.

I like how each subsequent time the dollar amount is mentioned, you learn that the previous number had been rounded up.

Man awarded $1m is glad to receive $900,000. That $898,000 will make him feel better but is $897,600 really adequate compensation? However, it’s kind of unfair that the tax payers end up footing this $897,550 bill.

It fits right in with this bad cop story.

I don’t have any direct sources to link but I remember seeing some pretty appalling omissions of Bernie Sanders during the 2020 primary.

They’d literally put up a little infographic on the screen that would say something like

Democratic primary front runners:

1 Joe Biden

3 Pete Buttigieg

4 Michael Bloomberg

And it was like, WTF! Bernie Sanders, at #2 would just be completely omitted. I saw many news sources doing this kind of thing.

With that, and seeing how they reacted to help the rich stop losing their asses when the hedge funds were getting raped via their illegal shorting of GameStop stock solidified for me that all media is controlled by the rich and they’re controlling all the narrative - to the detriment of the 99%.
