I’ve gotten a lot of responses, mostly by people who want to pontificate and tell me what I should do with my vote. I’ve spoken to you in the past, and I respect you, so I’m responding to you: I live in a hard blue district. There is no way that my vote matters at all. I’m not being childish, I’m being factual: my…

I am hardly young anymore, but my god the very conceit you have. What is the source? Why do you think young people don’t deserve your respect? Do you understand that most of the things you point out don’t exist in most states? Not every single person lives your life, nor are they your children.

I wonder sometimes what people inside the democratic party machine think when I point out that my vote doesn’t actually matter, locally.

No.

Infocom was legendary. If you haven’t read it,

The useful thing about british scifi (and Douglas Adams was a writer on Doctor Who before writing the Hitchhiker’s Guide) is that they realized early on that nobody actually sees the ship they’re on from the outside.

Would the “fuck it, that’ll do” category be 7?  I can think of several ships that are more built for structure than aesthetics.  Rama comes to mind.

A dinner theater version of Dante’s Inferno? How do can you serve food and properly depict the circle of shit?

Communism ideally won’t make this difficult. It’ll just be that the only people who can drive cars like this will be motor journalists. It makes sense if you think about it.

I was lucky to find a room in Brooklyn for less than 700/mo, and that was fucking fifteen years ago.

that is disgusting, but i assume he actually pissed or something. People do use bathroom time to check their phones for various things that don’t require others.

I just want to point out that when spanfeller, the ruling jackass, shuts this all down, we will all have lost things like this.

Probably, they didn’t think they could copyright the name itself, and just used it.  I mean, you can’t copyright Mercury or Jupiter.

I actually saved up money and hoped i could go to school out there so i could be with her, but she was from SF, so we broke up and i moved to nyc instead because it was cheaper.

My first kiss was with my internet girlfriend, back when that was actually a thing. I was at a BART station in and she ran up on me and it was a both a surprise and quite literally assault, because we were both teens and she was extremely dtf.

14 in every recommendation I’ve seen, incubation period plus asymptomatic-but-contagious.

I thought the point of chopping up an old F430 was to use the guts, i.e. the engine too? Why do they need to buy crate engines for a car they’re not actually manufacturing?

I don’t think MAT is nearly big enough to buy design and tooling. For as much of a bin fire as BL was, they were a big conglomerate. MAT is a lark by a bunch of rich investors and hasn’t actually produced a car that they debuted like a decade ago, which is itself just a mutilated old Ferrari that drives like shit.

The F430 was the last Ferrari to feature a proper manual.  People have spent years adapting the F430 manual to fit to 458s and 488s.  (It fits, but my god will it cost you money)

May have just been that the engineer was building a Stratofortress model and suggested Stratos, might not literally be the model name.
