“Man, what are you talking about? Me in chains?” O.G. Epictetus

I still love you Gizmodo, don’t you listen to them.

You are right, 6' diameter is a big ass stump. Out of curiosity, I googled up https://www.monumentaltrees.com/en/trees/malusdomestica/records/ ...So, no, not that big. What were we talking about? Oh yeah, Trump is a big, dumb stump.

I mean, a simple solution to this federal/state tit-for-tat would simply be California outlawing new combustion engine sales, period. The rest of the country gets their V8 6.1 L power, California gets sleek Teslas, Bolts, and Leafs. Might cause a bit of pain for new car buyers, and existing vehicles would have to…

It’ll take 20 years for those apple trees to grow big enough for a 3 month stump removal.

Because they buy all the politicians.

Had to spend some time there while flying in and out of Iraq and Afghanistan as a contractor. Dubai never struck me as a place to visit for itself. If you have a long layover, worth it to get a cab around town and check out the architecture. The Gold Souk was interesting, but they have those in other major Middle East…

IDK, Trump seems incompetent enough that he wouldn’t be able to directly cause a nuclear war. Now maybe if he hits on Kim’s favorite concubine at the summit in May, that could set something off. What was the old Vulcan proverb? “Only Nixon could go to China”. It would be so funny to watch folks boil at Trump bumbling…

IDK, my daughter is pretty pro-chicken death after being accosted by one of our roosters. That one she helped pluck and cook.

I have a funny feeling that those truckers heard what was going down on their own radios and blocked the highway intentionally...

Oh, it is generally a very safe procedure, the kid with the botched one/infection just had some rotten luck. Just wanted to chime in my anecdote that it does happen. And as with all genital injuries, it can be devastating to the individual’s psyche.

They do have those tacticool handgun mounted flashlights that the cops use.

Knew a kid(dated my high school girlfriend before I did) who got made fun of for his foreskin in locker rooms, made his parents get him a circumcision...then had an infection from the procedure that apparently caused some serious damage to his unit. That dude is traumatized both physically and mentally about it.

Spent just shy of two years there contracting there. Were we lied to to go there? Yes. Were some good things done, despite that? Yes. Was it worth the cost, in lives and money? No.

Electric eels are freshwater fish. You’d just wind up with a bunch of dead eels.

Sorry, I am Russian Bot, can I has potato now? I am pissed off with the “If you voted for Trump(I didn’t) you are a Racist” rhetoric, because it sounds suspiciously like “If you’re not with us, you’re against us”.

See, I am just imagining this conversation from a Clinton canvasser at a doorstoop with some of the farmers I’ve known,

1. Unfortunately, every comment she did make about strengthening gun control comes off to rural folk in such manner.  

I think white folks who voted for Obama in 2008 and 2012 in places that went to Trump in 2016 didn’t care one way or the other about the racist comments. They heard Hillary talk about takin’ der gunz, that whole “deplorable” comment out of context, getting their carbon taxed on diesel...oh, and they never saw her in…

I agree, I don’t think any of Clinton’s policies would have negatively effected our rural areas, any worse than the stranglehold the banks and trade policies have on farmers already. However, she did not effectively campaign in any effective fashion in rural areas, or even speak to rural residents in a manner as if…
