Do they powder coat bike frames?  I’d probably run to my local powder coater to strip and coat the fame.  PC is exceptionally durable too. Resists most chemicals as well. 

Neither the author nor you actually think the author implied that.

This is the fault of voters.

Stock price aside, if you report profit, you should pay taxes. Period. Especially 7.2 BILLION with a B in profit. Not revenue... PROFIT. If they claim that $7.35B in profit came from overseas, wonderful. But you can’t repatriate that money without paying taxes. Did they pay taxes in the territories that they claim

One clip that sticks in my mind that’s actually one of the less gory ones (not sure which specific film it was from or how it was bracketed, I saw it in a documentary on these whose title I can’t remember) showed a 1957 Ford that was recognizable as such due to an almost-undamaged headlight/grille/bumper area even

It’s a great way to get people used to the idea that tens of thousands of people dying in traffic accidents is “normal” and should just be accepted, from an early age. Would be nice if we had the cultural/governmental maturity for a strong contingent of people to say, “this is disgusting, and we should give people

Let’s be real: this is the fault of our elected officials. Dems had all three branches under Obama and did fuck all about stuff like this. Biden will do fuck all about this. Until we have campaign finance reform no politician will do anything about this. Yet....every election we vote for these people because they’re

I’m giving my age away, but I saw Signal 30 at Fort Ord during my advanced training in 1966. They intentionally showed it prior to a holiday weekend when a lot of G.I.s were going off post. It did give us pause, but as the article states, there were no long term safety benefits from that type of documentary. The film

These went on longer than you think, I got my license in 2010 and still had to watch one of these films. It was part of a series called Red Asphalt and we had to get parental permission to watch it, although we couldn’t complete our classroom credit without it.

Little known hidden feature in the Resolute Desk.  Queen Victoria installed it herself before she gifted it to President Hayes.  Sure, coal and whale oil were all the rage in 1880, but ol’ Queen Vicky knew oil would dominate.  She learned it from her lover on the down-low, Standard Oil President and founder, JD

he’d be praised by all the teslastans for the world’s most perfect solution to winter deep freezes....

On May 6, 2020, the USPS Board of Governors, all selected by Trump and confirmed by the Senate, announced DeJoy’s appointment as Postmaster General and CEO, despite concerns about conflicts of interest

USPS should also be able to raise prices, manage their own scheduling and make pension funding decisions on their own but, oops, those all take acts of Congress.

I know some GQP people that would think that is true. 

DeJoy also has $70 million invested in USPS competitors.

Someone shared like some 2 hour long video on bascially the history of cryptos and NFTs. I sat through the entire thing and yeah, it’s a ponzi scheme at best and scam at worse.

And it’d be called a hit piece by a segment of the commentariat.

I took a trip to my local hardware store’s Crime Aisle and picked up some drain opener crystals. This is crystalized lye, aka sodium hydroxide, aka NaOH. Lye is nasty stuff

There’s some more context required. The post office is over 99% self funded. But it does receive an extremely small amount of federal funding.
