People and their entitlements when it comes to dogs is getting out of hand. Went grocery shopping this weekend with the wife, and while we were at the local store, I saw 6 different people walking through the aisles with dogs on leashes. None of them had any indication that were “Service Animals”. (Vests or anything

If one has a life-supporting medical procedure scheduled, one does not go on vacation on the other side of the country right before it.

As a cancer survivor I would like to say fuck this bullshit, if you’ve gone through this stuff you’ve likely seen the graphs of remission and recurrence rates for your special beast out to 5 years or so at least. You know there is always a chance and if Stage IV those odds tend to not be as much in your favor. It

One of the things that’s most telling about Verstappen is that when he was winning, his team was content to just soak up his bullshit and his rants and bullying. And now that he’s not, they seem to have ZERO patience for him. I think he legitimately forgot that what goes up can also come down.

Posted the other day. Accomplishments of a democratic administration:

You’re blaming Presidents for the failures of Congress.  Odd take.

Sure sure sure. Vote for the guy who’s going to dismantle the EPA to protect the jobs of American coal miners line the pockets of his rich oil exec buddies.

Pump and dump. Pump and dump.

Humanoid robots seem incredibly dumb to me. Our bodies not perfect for all things, and actually quite unfit for most. Want to go fast on smooth ground? Add wheels. Need to reach into a crazy spot? Make 10 foot, triple-articulated arms with swivel clamps on the ends.

I just KNOW this time he will be right!

The robot wasn’t actually folding laundry, it was being tele-controlled by a human folding laundry, it was just doing what the human was doing.

And it’ll pilot their flying robotaxi, no doubt.

And you believe him???

You think US car manufacturers don’t get subsidies from the government. This is being a little bit naive.

I mean... Do you know how much the US (and states) subsidizes the manufacturers???
