We’ll get more slideshows on Jalopnik despite the entire website begging not to.

I don’t think most civilians would take the time to spit on a passing General, but I do think that most people probably do have a whole lot more active respect for the soldiers (or airmen) than they do the brass. There’s a pretty widespread understanding that the top levels of the military are basically quasi…

“The surprising lack of criticism about the militarism on display here was pretty surprising.”

Failing to fly on Southwest is only slightly worse than successfully flying on Southwest.

It is honestly a miracle Southwest hasn’t effed up this bad up until this point, as anyone who has been penalized with a flight on Southwest can attest. 

Given the content of the article, the headline would seem almost libellously inaccurate.

“Russian components, American components, all made in Taiwan!”

Tesla is supposed to be a far more mature company than any of those you compared them to. For example, Rivian’s net income last quarter was -$1.7B. Tesla’s was +$3.3B.

The fact that the CEO is trying to sell these things that start with 6 tons of dead weight relative to diesels, with zero current charging infrastructure in place, to individual contract truckers by telling them they’re “badass” is a perfect example of why TSLA will continue to shed market cap.

And actually some of us.... MANY of us don’t have any idea about the other “from” in that “from-from” scenario. I’m from NY. That’s all i know.
I can, and might someday, spend the MONEY doing one of those ancestry searches, but leave us not forget that many of our ancestors were brought here in chains from “over in…

You keep running around with the goalposts on your questions

Maybe he wouldn’t have been so bored if he actually did any acting in Divergent.

Because it controls the lights & the roomba (and for me it also controls some of the TVs, a few sets of blinds, and a few other odds & ends, composes my 6 room audio setup & seamlessly plays spotify, apple music, podcasts, and audiobooks).

If you want to come and do all of those things for me - go ahead & record me.…

So, let’s break this down...fully clothed children in non sexual poses holding stuffed animals in leather gear, (also not neccessarily sexual) are an outrage, but dead school children in classrooms get thoughts and prayers. 

Hey Letitia, your antivax stance helped influence people’s decision to not get protection, and many literally died because of it. Your apology didn’t’ retract any of these views and amounted to yet another case of, “I’m sorry if you were offended” which everyone knows is total bullshit. Maybe if you don’t want to get…

There are times where it is beneficial to be a “good teammate” though, and this was certainly one of those times. I agree with your general gist that teammates are competitors first and foremost, but let’s not ignore the benefits to helping your teammate.

It was offensive, in the right way. The line ‘when it’s black it’s a gang, and when it’s italians, it’s the mob, and when it’s jews, it’s a coincidence’ is brilliant in it’s structure. That’s not saying you have to agree OR be offended. But he couches it in counterexamples that puts the critic in the position of…

TSA has a 95% failure rate. NINTY FIVE!

For the handful of documented hijackings of US planes between the implementation of airport screening and the establishment of the TSA, there are maybe a couple that could have been prevented by current standards. Some did not originate in the US. Most of the rest involved no actual weapons. The TSA can’t do anything…
