Can I say how much I appreciate the take on these news stories - you’re not trying to be “objective” or “non-political” because no one can afford to be at this point. Keep calling out the bullshit, and don’t let the idiots off easy.

Squeeky rear brakes on the Mazda CX-5.  I put them on within the last 3 years and the pads and rotors have plenty of life.  Also replaced the Driver’s side caliper.  The issue is the hardware which is a known problem at Mazda to the point that they updated the clips and changed the PN.  Basically once the pad are worn…

This is the first time I’ve woken up as an American and genuinely not felt safe. And to all the people who chose this? Fuck you and I hope they come for your family first.

I mean, why not just give the people what they want:

For whatever reason, the US press was really really good at hiding how truly bad Covid was here. Some nurse friends, one traveling, had horror stories the entire time. Many many hospitals had to fight to get refrigerated trucks to store the bodies before funeral homes could pick them up.
I personally know of a friend…

I mean, I’m shocked the article doesn’t say this, but

DEI programs of any kind are “unconstitutional and unlawful”

It’s going to be tragic hilarious when all the aging boomers suddenly find that DEI includes hiring protections for the elderly, workplace accommodations for the elderly and communication accommodations for the elderly (diversity, equity and inclusion is most often for age, not race). Oh, sorry, you’re too old. You…

Never mind all the electric vehicle selling points, these appear to be just well-made cars. Hope they make it past the hump.

1986 Ford Escort... purchased in 1997-ish. It was perfectly fine for driving around town, but absolutely terrifying on the 401. Even then it was one of the smallest vehicles on the road. Paid $900. It lasted maybe a year, then got $300 in trade for a Cavalier.

Rougher than napkin math but my rule of thumb has always been, for every 10 degrees down, you lose 1psi. So if your garage is 60 and it’s 20 outside, you’ll lose 4psi. Not a huge deal if your tires are at 30. If you’re at 20, though, that’s a 20% drop. Especially if you drive a BMW.

Sorry, I had to.

You’ll need a place to store it. Does your uncle have a country place that no-one knows about? Was it a farm that existed before the motor law?

On the other hand, I’ve had ‘Tom Sawyer’ stuck in my head for the past two weeks...

a nominee for FBI chief whom Musk vocally supported and who has repeatedly vowed to pursue Trump’s enemies, one current and three former DOJ officials said.

Trump ran for president to avoid jail time, so it only makes sense he’d bring along other people looking to avoid punishments.

More like times Infinite

This X 5 billion.

tRump and musk are pieces of shit.  Fuck them and their idiot deplorables.

I really hope democracy can survive our impending kleptocracy.
