Service companies in that industry are generally super neurotic about safety because many contracts included injury ratios that need to be met. Depending on a few factors, a company can lose a contract for having too many incidents, even if they aren’t at fault for them.

Doesn’t this all get negated by the entire comic book to movie genre that has been doing the same characters for decades with hugely varied levels of success? Almost like the end result is a matter of the film maker’s collective abilities instead of whether the source material is easily transferable.

3rd: I’m certain the company that made almost $100 billion in revenue last year learned their lesson with that $1.5 million fine. I bet the lawyers got a really bad cramp while laughing off that check. 

I think 300 is just the magic number of range for the public. Just like getting in the lower 30s MPGs can sound much better than upper 20s. 

One of my favorite mergers of cars, physics, & engineering is watching slow motion videos or stills of drag car tires warping under the torque during take-off. IDK why, maybe it’s because I’ve physically handled tires to know how stiff they are, and we all see them support entire cars on a daily basis. But it’s just…

I make regular trips to border towns for work and my MAGA relatives are always highly concerned about my safety while I’m always excited for the awesome tacos and neat architecture of the different towns.

I’ve been through probably 5 or 6 times the last few years. Not once did things go smooth. The huge security area barely having any lanes open. Gates have been changed multiple times. 

Dallas-Love is what came to mind for me. I generally like the smaller airports and Southwest flights to them for most cities. I know they aren’t the nicest things, so my expectations are pretty low to being with, but Love Field always feels like utter chaos, despite being a small airport (relative to DWF).

Midway is jam for Chicago flights. It’s exactly what you expect out of the cheaper airport, so that managed expectations is probably a big part of it. I only used O’Hare a few times, but every time it was a full of problems, so I just have no interest in paying more money for more issues.

Even as a GM hater, it is a shockingly good rental. I prefer them over any Toyota or the array of compact SUVs out there. The Fusion was the same deal too. 

The Compass & Renegade are almost identical in exterior dimensions (Compass a bit longer), but the interiors feel wildly different. I owned a Renegade and got the Compass a few times as a rental and it was always annoying how much smaller the Compass feels on the inside. 

I’ve heard the joke many times that a black man becoming president made Rs lose their minds. However, I have a bunch of family who has been saying all the current MAGA stuff my entire life, so hating gay people or blaming crime on non-white people has been the norm for a long time in that crowd. The core tangible…

I imagine it will get treated a lot like current pro sports, where they just don’t test for opiates so that they can dose anyone until their numb to keep them on the field. The drug testing is required to get recognized by various sports organizations and I’m sure a lot of PR about legitimacy/family values/etc, but I…

The size would be a plus, if they want it as backup a family of 5. 

As Bradley noted, it’s $10 less per hour relative to UAW wages. That said, the South has long been the worst-case scenario in just about every big metric. Poverty, education, health care, reliance on federal funding, etc. The worst outcomes are pretty much always found in Alabama, Mississippi, or Louisianna and the…

Rev up your engines! 

and it has all the electronic bells and whistles you could ask for

The people who fight against divorce always like to leave out the biggest reasons rates spiked a while back was simply because laws came in that required women be allowed to ask for a divorce and have a bank account. It’s terrifying to think of what would happen to domestic violence rates by going back to that.

Don’t forget that they also want to go after divorce.
