Soup

Right? And moving in a truck sucks. A minivan or full-sized van are way better. My grandma used to have a GMC Safari and that shit was awesome for moving. It could actually take an amount of stuff, was clean inside, AND it could be used easily while it was raining(and locked).

Another old coworker had a racebike and he literally made parts for MotoGP race teams and he had a Mercedes Metris van. Nice and low and easy to get bikes in and out of. Two other coworkers went to the track once and sold their Mazda 3 hatch and whatever Sedan to buy F150s and it was so funny watching them try to get a Ninja 250 out of the super high bed one day.

And then another coworker at my last job was all proud of hauling some dirt but my dad’s STi can do that just fine so…

Oh that’s fuckin’ clever.

Well, carbs are ass but they had fuel-injected 6cyl Rangers and Mazda B2500s. Those were solid trucks and for jobs where having a bed you could just toss shit into is actually important they worked great. Plus you could reach into the bed unlike these new giant fucking things and that’s coming from a dude who’s 6’-5”.

The biggest thing is that if they actually had any braincells and truly bought the vehicle for practical reasons they’d probably all own GMC Savannas and stuff but it’s all about the image so…

“I’ll have you know that I use this truck once a year to pull something a sturdy station wagon could handle just fine! And what if you need a really shitty version of a U-Haul? Then who are you gunna call?!? I saved $200 moving that one time and all it cost me was an extra $35k and a gas bill with numbers mathematicians are still trying to describe properly.”

Trucks: If you don’t have a fifth wheel RV then you may just be a complete dipshit.

At some point it’s not Donald Trump doing the damage, though. The worst things he can really do to someone in that position is expose bad things about those people during a petty temper tantrum(fine be me, let ‘em all burn together) or not pay them(which should be expected, that’s par for the course for him).

Rudy didn’t see a good thing that turned out to be a lie and was tricked into doing bad things. He willingly jumped into a dumpster fire to support an unashamedly disgusting person. He wanted exactly what he got and how Trump treats him is just a really fucking obvious consequence of his numerous dogshit decisions.

So as it that pertains to the article I stand by saying that she’s struggling to reconcile with the fact that her dad is just, at his core, a massive, stupid piece of shit.

Looking at it more I think they did it that way so when you put a regular cord in the plug is protected and the extra spaces on top and bottom are the get your fingers in to unplug it.

TL;DR: She’s pretty solid, doesn’t hold back any punches against Trump and even uses some more casual and direct language to call him the scum he is. Despite her privilege she would have definitely voted democrat either way, which is refreshing.

She understands that her father isn’t exactly the best of people but is definitely struggling with calling him out for what were, ultimately, his decisions and his decisions alone. For that, and given the context of the rest of what she wrote, I think we can give her a pass as she is related to him however the dude’s pretty top-tier garbage so I hope she comes to accept how much of this was just as much his own fault.

“Our houses were more expensive because you see the interest was really high and-“

“We didn’t spend our money on things that didn’t exist yet and are now required to live! Don’t look at our wasteful lawns, large vehicles, or houses in the objectively worst kind of developments imaginable that we attach our entire self-worth to!”

“My parents had it hard when I was a kid and I’m far too out of touch to understand that you actually have very similar problems!”

It should be a Sly Mini Cooper. Would have been perfect.

It’s a votes to seats thing, I believe. Like how in the federal election the NDP got 25 seats and the Liberals got 150+ but the NDP recieved well over half the votes the Liberals got. By that metric they should have gotten over 80 seats yet instead have to make do with less than a third of that.

Incorrect! They might not be right but absolutely they’re gunna blame everyone else. When you’re a whiny selfish asshole the world is your oyster and everyone else is fair game(but if they get mad at you you’re a special innocent victim).

This work will have lots of applications in the future. I personally stay as far away from it as I can because I just have zero need for it to write souless birthday card messages for me but to act like the work is doing nothing is kinda stupid.

Every stage it’s been at people would say “oh this can’t even do X” and then it could and they’d so “oh it can’t do Y” and then it could and they’d say…do I really need to go on?

The biggest issue with it all right, for me anyway, now is that we’re trying to use it for the absolute dumbest shit imaginable and investors are throwing tonnes of money, that could solve real problems we don’t need AI for, into the grinder while poverty and climate change run rampant around us.
