Imagine the self-loathing required to be an ATC at Ronald Reagan Airport. 

This comment was par fucking excellence. TIL. 

I love the false concern about “won’t someone think of the birds!” from the same people who love to “roll coal”. 

I like Alex Garland movies, typically. I may actually venture out to a theater for this one.

I always lose my valve caps.”

I actually prefer the MB-Tex over leather. That stuff is great. 

You can’t just transport precious metals around without the government getting their cut! That’s immoral!

You can get a very clean low mileage BMW 440 with the twin turbo I6 for 25K.

Laughs in house realllllllly far back from road. I’m not some MAGA-humping J6'er, but the Patriot Act - and all its resultant metastases - still chap my hide to this day.

I was thinking it looks like an older Volkswagen offering. Buy yeah, bland.

This was quite the ride.

Incentivizing moving away from fossil fuels has a long-term net benefit not just to our society, but the entire world. I’d rather my tax dollars go towards paying for an EV than yet another bomb to shuffle rocks around in yet another middle east resource war.

I think Volvo is making some incredibly good-looking sedans and wagons.

Oooh, oooh, I know this one!

I would argue he still does as GOTG3 was one of the few post-Endgame films that feels solid. It was a great end to the trilogy from a character perspective. 

We are currently calling out the SCOTUS for their clearly biased rulings, but if you look at the history of the SCOTUS in regards to the labor struggles since the beginning of the country, SCOTUS rarely decides in favor of the working class. This country is by the rich, for the rich, since its inception. 

Stewart proves himself uncorruptable. And that’s why he’s the ubermensch. 

The Battle of Blair Mountain. The largest battle on US soil since the Civil War. 10,000 miners went to war with the coal barons over trying to unionize.

I have been reading old sci-fi on a lark for the past few months and went into Alfred Bester’s “The Stars my Destination” knowing nothing about it. It had to have been the equivalent of The Matrix in it’s day. It has a lot of 50s chauvinism baked into it, but damn, if it isn’t the most Cyberpunk thing I’ve ever read.
