Steel toolboxes work even better, plus you can cosplay as a repair tech and wear a hard hat and reflective vest. Don’t forget your clip board and osha gloves!

I love how this blames a group of people for inaction while also itself being another form of inaction.

Embargo the shit out of us, stop buying our gas and oil, pirate our movies and software.

We want them out of power too, but most of us are so vulnerable to job loss, home loss, healthcare loss and food instability that there isn’t much we can do until we are properly organized across 50 states, 100 million people spread across 3.12million square miles (8,081,000 million square km). That’s the scale of the situation.

Also we know national politics aren’t democratic. The senate is intentionally disproportionate representation, but the house isn’t really any better, because the minimum is 1 representatives per state, even when one of the states has 1.5% of the population of another. So Wyoming has 1 rep per 500,000 people, while California has 1 rep per 750,000 people. And in the senate it’s roughly one senator for 250,000 in WY and 1 for 19,000,000 in CA. That means people in densely populated cities (who tend to be higher educated left leaning voters) are way under represented.

Thank you for your prescience or at least sacrifice.

Maybe watching ads is the unthinkable. It sure is for me, but I block them instead of paying.

Reader mode hid the ads and gave the full article btw!

And drug abuse

Sounds like another step in our descent into President Camacho territory.

He had nothing left to lose, but he still had the means to armor and fuel his bulldozer and by a bunch of ammo to go on his drive.

Most people with nothing left to lose don’t have those.

It’s more like protection payments, they are afraid of getting primaried by the next douchbag who accepts backing by APAIC.

Not nearly as many elementary school kids were watching it live on TV though.

Columbia was also a preventable tragedy though. And yeah worse for the astronauts, who probably had more awareness of it happening.

Unless you like burgers medium-rare.

Ground beef is good medium-rare (if it’s good beef to begin with sausage is usually pork based and needs to be fully cooked to kill tape worms I think.

And kids on heelies swerving all over.

They never let a private citizen repair public infrastructure that they broke, I’m pretty sure paying to fix it means the company is paying the city or transit authority to do the repairs.

They want those kids for at least 2 different disgusting reasons.

Can we have them here in the US too?

Fuck those things (and I say this as a car enthusiast who occasionally needs to tow old classic cars for restoration or salvage and recycling).

Glorious sausage would end up undercooked then the burgers were right, or the burger would be overcooked when the sausage was done.

Isn’t Bezos behind Slate though?

I know there were multiple kickstarter type funding schemes for Aptera, but it’s not like the influence a couple billionaires exert. The main problem with Aptera though is all the other vehicles on the road. We need legislation to start shrinking trucks and SUVs and stop killing us all so easily before smaller lighter cars can happen. Maybe someday.

Damn

Close Quarters Combat if any other normies were wondering.
