I’m glad that this particular high-profile auction of a natural history specimen was stopped and I look forward to rich people who have a fondness for dinosaurs choosing to invest in actual research instead of these auctions.

Cuffing season refers to a period of time where single people begin looking for short term partnerships to pass the colder months of the year. Cuffing season usually begins in October and lasts until just after Valentines Day.(Merriam-Webster)

Gen X hot take - Thanksgiving is overrated and over celebrated. The food generally sucks, you feel like garbage, and celebrating manifest destiny is all sorts of fucked up. And the fact that schools get the whole week off now is bizarre to me. Classes just started a few weeks prior, so why not just bank that week and e…

True, although that still means in the 7 years of his NFL career, he spent something like $14M

He certainly had the chance to set himself up for life off his NFL earnings.

Update: I was bored. Turns out you’re right, his net worth is just over a million dollars. He probably could have saved more.

A little harsh to call someone a rube because they’re surprised something is allowed in O’Hare that isn’t allowed in the majority of other airports. 

I doubt there's much value in buying it out. I would guess a bankrupt Tesla might be taken over by China and relaunched as the first global Chinese brand. With their own EV pipelines building, what value would Tesla really add? 

Just need to do two things - limit the tax deduction that allows heavy luxo -barges to be classed as “work” vehicles and extend the GGT to all vehicles (I think somebody mentioned it here but IIRC if the Raptor-R was subject to the GGT it would add over 7k to the cost of the truck). It’s patently silly that people get…

Yeah, the suggestion that he’s retiring off of his Pokemon collection is ridiculous. Even if he’s down to $20M from his NFL career, he could spend $800,000 every year (4%) and still have $20M.

The implication that Blake is retiring from the NFL because of the money he’s making selling Pokémon cards seems a little baseless. He has over $25M in career earnings from playing in the NFL.

Fucking THIS ^^^^

It makes no difference if they know of the satellite’s existence. Rules exist to ensure the safety of the nation. If you are unwilling to follow you are showing you are unfit to protect the nation. When safety requires protecting secrets you protect them large or small.

Of course, but there were articles written about this photo a while back (this is an old story), and it said that normally the US lowers the resolution to cover up just how good their satellite technology is. And while every other country knows that, they didn’t know by how much until now.

This is not a good thing for…

Lol there is also the fact that people complaining about gas prices A. often dont believe in climate change, and B. are too stupid to understand how gas prices are set (hint:nothing to do with Biden) 

“Also EPA is a load of crap for the most part, I constantly get over what the epa gets. As long as you don’t floor it every chance you get, you can at least increase the hwy mpg by 5 points. ”

I mean, if you believe in made up worlds and fairy tails why would you care if the “current” planet is destroyed? You’ve been promised a utopia in the afterlife. It’s really very convenient.

Actually, it’s about what I expected, considering that more of those people praying for the earth are not willing to do anything more about it than praying.

Love the image. Instead of pulling wood on wheels why not help lift some actual wood and help your neighbors? 

Wait, so worshipers of the magical sky man disregard climate science?
