Okay, that’s a very fair point. Perhaps we are not giving enough acknowledgement to the fact that we are living in a place that historically has been extremely fire-prone and that if we had bothered to ask the native tribes living here when we arrived, they probably would have warned us that settling in this area with buildings meant to last is probably not the best idea.
Reminder that California pays the highest federal taxes in the country and has never once complained about the cost of rebuilding in Florida despite annual devastating hurricanes or rebuilding in “tornado alley” despite frequent devastating tornadoes. People keep rebuilding their houses there and we never say shit.
Californians did not build their houses in wildfire country, they built them in areas that were previously safe and have now become tinderboxes thanks to climate change. It’s not our fault that we are stuck holding the bag, but at least have the common courtesy of extending us the exact same aid money we send out to other high risk areas.
Judge Merchan is a fucking coward.
My last picture in my saved images folder is a snip of my screen. My prompt got featured on Prequel Comic! Finally, after like, 10 years of submitting commands and I just happened to check for updates and saw my name at the top.
I kind of regret that specific prompt getting picked now though, because I thought the spider character was on an elevator traveling downwards, but I went back a page and realized that it was a camera/animation trick and they weren’t actually moving down. And yet, the artist still picked me for some reason anyway. Whatever, I’ll take it!
Surely placating the fascist wannabe dictator is the right move this time, right?
It (the car) cost $700, so the driver is unconcerned about damage as a result of an accident while merging. Lots of people on the road have this weird bully complex and actively prevent people from merging into their lane because they have faith that all the other drivers on the road care enough about their cars to not want to risk damaging them in a game of chicken. That really only applies to people who paid a lot of money for their cars and are hoping to retain some of that value for when they go to resell it.
Basically, the bumper sticker is warning people that if he starts to merge, he doesn’t care if you speed up to close the gap in traffic, he’s going to keep going and you’ll probably the the one who loses money on the repair bill.
That no longer matters, because the President is immune to civil suits. Since they seem so reluctant to throw him in jail, I’d be shocked if he even bothers to show up to the hearing.
Yeah, the American people fucked up big time if they thought that there were any remaining guardrails keeping Trump accountable. We just made him a king, and if you disagree he could publicly order you to be murdered and suffer zero consequences because the courts and congress are incapable of holding him accountable.
Right next to the cast iron pan! 😌
The only time I would ever wash a chicken is if I’m going to brine it in something. Otherwise it cooks just fine.
On 4chan, if you reply to a post it puts the > in for you. He just deleted what was there and typed in something else.
At least I think that’s how it works. I could be wrong, since I haven’t set foot in 4chan in like a decade.
It’s incredible that this guy has signaled that he’s not going to punish Trump at all - no fine, no jail time, not even a slap on the wrist. AND STILL Trump is railing on the guy. Is he really that stupid to tempt fate?
Angel hair is probably my most disliked. It just tastes terrible and gets overcooked so easily. I also dislike ditalini but not nearly as much since that usually only goes in like minestrone soup and it might just be that I’m not a fan of minestrone.
For the best pasta shapes, look no further than Buccatini (the objectively better spaghetti), cellentani (idk it’s just fun), and gemelli (perfect texture for lightly sauced dishes).
I used to hate farfalle, but I’m okay with that one now. We’ve made our peace. It’s another example of a pasta shape that I only had in one particular dish that I didn’t care for and I formed a negative association as a result.
Yes. Apparently a tesla caught on fire and exploded outside of Trump Tower in Vegas. Not sure if it was intentional or just an unfortunate accident, I only saw one article about it earlier today.
Please God let him die under mysterious circumstances. I’ll take the fucking W when I see it.
You see, that was before Musk bought him.
“You first.”
Have they tried not taking handouts and pulling themselves up by their bootstraps?
Based on what, exactly?
In the entire time I used Honey, I never once got a valid coupon code for literally anything. Pretty sure they scraped a ton of my browsing data though.
I understand the desire of people who don’t want to see accusations like this be used as a political weapon, but the pendulum is swinging too far in the opposite direction here. Trump is using his status as a political candidate and now president-elect to sidestep the judicial process entirely.
It’s one thing to say you can be president even from a prison cell if the electorate so wills it. It’s another to say that because he was voted to be president, we can’t even put him up for a trial to determine guilt or innocence by a jury of his peers.
And now we’ll probably never know the answer to that.
