I once donated $50.

It’s not much, but I’ve definitely got my money’s worth and then some over the years.

I have had managers send me emails telling me to ignore warehouse safety standards set by OSHA, regardless of what the warehouse personnel tell me when I’m there for the day.

Also had managers that recorded themselves breaking company safety rules and post to social media.

I’ve even had one manager that straight up pointed a gun at me in front of 3 cameras thinking it was a funny joking thing.

Never assume management has a single brain cell, let alone enough to realize when something probably shouldn’t be done or said.

The prosecution used the presence of the first aid kit they carried

Insane bullshit.

I have a kit with me every day of my life, and I’ve had to refill it many times due to using it on others.

It would be pure coincidence that I happen to be carrying a first aid kit on any given day, and if I’m going to a peaceful protest I’m bringing my trauma kit because the entire fucking world knows how cops treat protesters.

And what country are you from where racism is not an issue?

No really, where, because a non-racist place to live sounds fantastic, especially nowadays.

I mean, you’re the weirdo accepting random liquids from someone.

… Okay no really, who ever in their right mind considered us a “liberal democracy”?

Calm down there, Shiro Ishii.

This is my only issue with having three dogs.

I only have two hands.

So if I come home and they all want attention, I have to split pets between all of them in short intervals or they start pushing each other (and me) around trying to get attention. Or rather, the biggest one pushes in and the smaller two have to climb over themselves to get to my other hand.

Hell yeah. I’ve actually used the S10 as an example of the max size I want a truck to be. Stretch the cab forward to the unnecessary engine bay and make it a crew cab with no nose.

At this point I’d take a modern truck if it was offered, but I’d be looking to trade for something smaller immediately. Modern trucks are just too grossly oversized, and I, as an adult, often can barely see over the hood of modern trucks. And tons of trucks around here have lift kits installed, making them even less safe for pedestrians

my child.

I heard about them a few weeks back, messed around on their site building a couple different trucks, from the one I would actually buy, to the one I’d get if I had all the money and time to go out to the middle of nowhere for a week long camping trip.

It’s neat!

I’ve been wanting an EV since the day I got my license at 27ish. Up to then I had been cycling everywhere, and didn’t really need long distance or cargo capacity beyond what I could carry in a pack and saddlebags.

Ideally I wouldn’t need a car, and public transit would provide the majority of non-bike travel, but that’s not the country I live in. We’d rather elect officials that dump money into fossil fuels.

Currently I need a small form electric truck with at least 2ft of ground clearance and preferably no giant nose on the front that small children can hide behind, with at least 100mi of travel on one charge and the ability to go 300mi in one day with full size charging stations.

Of course like many people, my biggest hurdle isn’t finding one that I like, it’s finding one that is even remotely affordable. And assuring me the used market of shitty half-dead cars that will require many thousands more in mechanic costs due to the simple fact that if something breaks on it, I can’t fix it as simply as a gasoline engine vehicle.

3/4 of Americans can’t even afford an EV.

On the one hand, I have about $1400 saved

On the other hand, I got fired yesterday…

So uh… Yay?

My parents have no savings at all and my mother got fired from her job 2 weeks ago, they’re both a few years from retirement age but definitely won’t be able to.

It’s been a fun year.

As progressive as star trek was for its time, it still has its moments that make reasonable people shift uncomfortably in their seat.

Obligatory Fuck Rick Fucking Berman

This hand-crafted, gold necklace with diamond, ruby sapphire, and emeralds adorning the intricately carved centerpiece?

5 gold pieces.

That moldy slice of bread you picked up accidentally from a barrel in the bottom of a 1500 year old shipwreck?

… I’ll give you 3 gold.

Well, it’ll be taught, just not as official curriculum.

I learned about a man from Nantucket at school.

And the United States government, whose nuclear launch systems for decades had a default “0000000” password on systems so old they figured nobody would know how to hack them in person anymore, and they’re incompatible with the internet.

It’s disturbing to me that my high school hobby of fixing and operating old computers meant I could have launched nukes.

The misfits in question: you wanna take on “The Man” but your mom says you have to be back inside by 5:30 so you can go get a pair of JNCO jeans at the mall.

It’s less that we “send each other videos we know the other doesn’t like” and more “when we’re relaxing and watching videos, we will show each other a funny video or two but eventually neither of us really cares about the videos as much as the other but neither of us dislikes them enough to stop it because it’s not about the videos it’s about spending time with each other”
