I think there is more than meets the eye here.

It’s 2022, leave it. It actually has character (gasp!), unlike the awful soulless “gray cabinet/gray floor, white wall, with copy-paste mid-modern mass market instagram aesthetic furniture and fixtures” trash that flippers and tract home builders crank out these days.

Not Guilty.

You don’t become a billionaire by caring about things like “the planet we all live on”.

Ah yes the deep lasting cultural and social impact of Let’s Build a Zoo on Switch. Cmon.

That’s the publishers problem, not mine. This is entertainment media we are talking about, not food or shelter. The world would be just fine without it at all.

Yeah, i wanted more time with some of the chars for sure. Would have made some of the machinations this season far more impactful if we had the same connection to them that we had in Thrones, including the light hearted and humanizing moments that were seemingly absent. I do get that whats coming is... a lot of content…

It’s a thread. I didnt want to dump an insanely long picture in a G/O comment box, and thought their Twitter integration might actually work. Apparently that was stupid of me!

Kinja being its normal self, i guess. Lets see if it embeds this time:

The dude that wrote that article has been writing completely incorrect dogshit takes about high speed rail for the LA Times for a decade+. He has literally spent his life trying to discourage people from supporting rail, and has danced every possible dance he can think of to try to support his bad arguments. He isn’t…

I’m not sure if I care if a list of US poll workers was stored on a cloud server in China? I would likely come down on the side that the list should be public... already? Also everyone’s tax returns, while we are at it.

That’s not the point. The point is that drivers make the roads dangerous, both for other drivers and all other road users, not the pedestrians.

That protection didn’t stop 24,333 people from dying in 2020 alone.

The real reason, as has been covered hundreds of times is: “Because you’ll pay it.”

Every angle that Cowboy Cosplay posers believe in their broken little hearts that people will picture when they roll buy in these $80k+ luxury brodozers, specifically built for doughy suburban “never, never, never” losers. Vehicles that endanger their passengers, drivers, neighbors, wallets, and our collective…

The plan is to divert them far enough away that its composition is less relevant. A tiny push far away is better than a big push close in. Larger problem is that we still aren’t very good at actually detecting them in the first place.

Seems like a lot of extra things I’m gonna have to go into powershell to turn off. 

Yes. It was. Glad you agree!

The series used to be at least tangentially interested in racing and competition, and not solely on dividing stacks of cash and making things as unfun, stodgy, and exclusionary as humanly possible. This lead to fun upstart teams with wild, often bad plans. 1989 had 21 teams (really 20, as 1 never showed up) and 30…

Gawker (ahem, G/O) used to at least have the chutzpah to mention the option that literally millions of Americans will use: piracy. Its easy, its free, wowee!
