Right there with you on small trucks, the kid and I have been drooling over the Slate even if it is Bezos. I drive a '98 Ranger, and we’ve been kicking around the idea of a Ranger electric conversion.

I completely agree. Making statistics lie is a dark art.
The fascist fuckheads and their followers are doing so much blatantly evil shit that there is no need to embellish anything. The plain facts are plenty apalling all by themselves.
Nah, they’re saying sales have only dropped by 10% from 2024, in the US. Which is fucked up.
Wonder if that’s because left aligned types had already quit buying them in '24? He was already being a total fuckhead during the election at that point.
Hell of a way to squeeze a statistic.
I demand my M&Ms be gendered and fuckable!
Now, that’s pretty funny.
Nuke a godless communist gay baby seal for Christ!
I miss that T-shirt, I think my mother and ex-wife conspired and burned it.
I appreciate the in-depth response. I was really just having some fun trolling engineers. You’ve been around the block so you understand the arrogance inherent in pretty much anything technical. It’s totally immature but it also makes me grin.
I was amusing myself. Trolling engineers can be pretty fun and this is a target rich environment. I’ve seen a lot of bad engineering over the years and sometimes it’s just plain cathartic to make fun of them.
My bad, not design authority as that’s a specific thing. They are allowed to design and the guy rubber-stamping often doesn’t catch much.
Ultimately, this is a religious issue. Engineers are heathens that should be burned at the stake. Occasionally, you meet a good one who’s been housetrained by the people that actually do the things.
Yup. Thing is, it’s known that ‘machinists’ coming out of trade school aren’t worth a damn for years. The same is true of enginneers, yet they turn them loose on CAD and they create designs that make everyone miserable.
This is one of the big problems with SpaceX/Blue Origin/Firefly. The designs are piss poor because the majority of their engineers are green.
Engineers shouldn’t have design authority until they’ve spent a few years manufacturing.
Only thing dumber than a mechanical engineer is an electrical engineer trying to design a housing.
You want to understand the deep magic, talk to electricians and technicians.
All hat, no cattle. Too much truck, not enough dick. Just like jacked up stupid trucks, it’s suburban men cosplaying. They’re imitating a culture they aren’t a part of and don’t understand.
Yup. There’s also McDoodles, Booger King, Taco Hell…
Alfonso Ribeiro will always be FADDER!
SPEAK UP, WE CAN’T HEAR YOU.
Memory unlocked.
I learned that furries were a thing in 2000. Was acquaintances with a guy that hung out at Wiffle Horse late at night.
Friend of a friend social group stuff. He was always in a booth sketching.
We were all on so much drugs.
My mind was blown that he was selling pictures of cartoon rabbits in football gear and that he was doing it over the internet. His stuff was totally queer. I remember him explaining yiff and how hard we all laughed that he was actually making fat stacks on it.
Thanks for reminding me of that!
It’s been a long time since I read the book, but I remeber it being medicore late golden era. Hubbard had no understanding of radiation and his characters tended to be good or evil without a lot of nuance.

Yes, but I would recommend being fucked up and in the company of others.
Don’t go there alone or you will only find sadness and anger.
Yeah, drunk or stoned with a group of SF nerds shit talking it would be a fun party, actually.
It’s a terrible movie. Verges on so bad it’s good. Uses more dutch angles than a crooked windmill.
Book was mediocre with a Mary Sue main that had Goodboy for a last name.
What about invasive vs naturalized?
