That noise you’re hearing is the sound of every NRA exec finally achieving an erection, having finally found an actual “good guy with a gun” story to crow about.

The Red-Hats are about to learn how much easier and faster it is to squander the good-will of strangers than it is to earn said good-will in the first place.

I can’t wait for companies like Ferrari and Lamborghini to use these data to justify NOT building EVs.

What we need to do here is some misdirection. We can probably harness his ire for anything bearing the prefix trans into doing some real good for people. Just slap that prefix on actual problems, even if it doesn’t make sense.  Start the Orange Idiot talking about trans-fats and see what we can do for people’s diets.

Thankfully our government is worried about immigrants and trans people, so we can lose our shit to China in yet another technology race.

When in doubt, go with the Holy Trinity

When "safety" becomes a for-profit business, we all suffer.

However, where you’re... ahem... going...

When “Safety” becomes a for-profit business, we’re all fucked.

they will be. it’ll be used as a means of making this about privatization.

This is the way. 

But non-political government agencies like the FAA definitely need to have their budgets cut, right?

Volkswagen needs to pull a page out of Foxconn’s playbook. Make like you’re going to build a plant somewhere, but you just need to find the “right place.” That’ll convince the Dipshit in Chief that you’re going to give him what he wants, so he’ll back off of the tariff threats. 

I have several friends who work for the EPA.  This very question looms large for them, unfortunately.

Okay, fine, I’ll bite. While, hybrids are slightly more expensive than their equivalent non-hybrid trims... Both hybrid and non-hybrid trims of the models listed are less expensive than the average new car. But if we are being technical and splitting hairs, as you seem to insist upon, I must again make a few things…

Hear me out, if they didn’t have to work in the office and worked from home, they wouldn’t have to worry so much about the price of gas. BOOM!

They are objectively below mean and median new car prices. So... yes, those “efficient” cars are cheaper than the “average” car.

The irony of the Fascism-Curious suddenly caring about hate crimes is delicious.

As far as we know, the first recorded “National FAFO Situation” in human history was Sumer-Elam War. The Elamites got uppity with the Sumerians, so Enembaragesi, the king of Kish, led the Sumerian army right the hell into the larger Elamite empire and fuckin’ wrecked their shit.

When is?
