I drove a beater with no note for like twenty years and just rented for car trips.

Having two or three car payments a year is cheaper than twelve.

It's unconventional, but plenty of people do it.

Well, I thought it was funny.

Our backs hurt and our knees aren't what they used to be.

It's the second paragraph on the post.

What exactly is quantum computing? Like can someone eli5?

Good grief. Canada prices are high.

In the States I think .22 is like 5-10 CPR

If you want semi cheap ammo 9mm & 5.56/.223 are good ways to go if you're target shooting.

.22 is the absolute cheapest though.

This checks out.

US agriculture is shockingly self regulated.

I've got one of the older models. I love it. What do you mean when you say the magnet?

WHOOOOOAA WHOA I'm halfway there!

An expanse tear runs down my cheek.

Let's pump up the flyover real estate market?

What we really need now is a nice World War one.

A nice large draft to cull the world's population and make sure the working class appreciates how good they have it to not be in a muddy trench.

Talking faster is one of the more helpful hints I ever got.

But never try to get your car to play phonk, it'll just play you some funk. Which is cool too, but not what I was going for.

I'm not sure which is worse.

I'm pretty sure they deep fry them to dehydrated them too

CDs don't last that long. I had a buddy that worked for a radio program tell me that the tapes lasted a lot longer. This was mid 2000s and he was already seeing failures. I think they were fairly early adopters, but still it couldn't have been that long.

I think this must have happened before my time.

A sonar pulse can literally boil a person in the water.

Operation Paperclip is calling from inside the house.

That's only because a glass of milk is kind of gross.

100%

Russian trolling is pretty well documented at this point. They overthrew several Baltic nations and bought a lot of breathing room during the 2016 election.

It's been all over the news and stuff.

“There’s too much identity tied up in one’s work, so that is lost [after retirement]. And then there’s the cultural script of what maleness means in in our culture, so men just won’t admit or won’t receive care for depression because of that sense that it’s somehow not what a man does.”

What use is a cog that can't cog anymore? Caring for elders is not built into our value system and not protected by our economic system.

Hell, it may be the only way to retire in a few more years.

Less talk, more folding.

I think Skyrim is a pretty cool guy. He kills dragons and doesn't afraid of anything

I that that's him in the window

I believe a fairly wealthy landowner heir as well.

I think this is the first time that I realized it's not the same little girl in this meme.

If police and proud boys have them...

I do use mine for target practice though. I shot competitively when I was younger and really appreciate the skill aspect. I have fond memories of my grandpa teaching me how to shoot, but hunting has never been on my radar.

January sixth, probably played a pretty big role in me actually "pulling the trigger" tbh. That and a PB demonstration down the street from me.

If I was honest, it's basically a super dangerous bowling ball to me.

There castle

I mean, when you break it down like that, I guess I don't see how I missed it before. Lol

How would that even work?

I must not be up on my pop culture.

It's crazy to think how much damage law enforcement had on the black community's moral leadership of the sixties and seventies. I guess I'd never really thought about the leadership of the generation immediately following.

Tupac absolutely had a lot of charisma and a moral authority. Shit, his name is still known around the world. It is kind of wild to think how he could have matured into that role, especially considering the influence that hip hop has been able to muster socially.

I don't mean to throw shade at anyone, but imagine the impact a prominent hip hop voice could have today with a message that went against the socioeconomic grain and sort of harkened back to some of the voices of the civil rights movement driving real progress.

All Americans, not just the black community that was hit the hardest and most violently, lost a lot to cointelpro and the state behind it.

Well, they move fast and break things well...

I think they want to invade Mexico and build a Canadian border wall too.

They sound like meth heads.

Long term it's probably decaying public trust, short term: no matter the asshole they've got people that voted for them.

I'm not too sure that America is even thinking about it's future anymore and we've got a ton of momentum.

I don't see a good reason for originalism. It seems stupid to me.

I don't see why they don't just ask their parents for money?

It's like people don't even know how to take care of themselves.

This got a snort out of me.
