You sound like every Trumpster for the last ten years.

Basically yeah. With Biden they cried they can’t afford to live because of inflation... even though inflation returned to normal and wages had started to outpace inflation.

They’ll suffer, but it’ll be subtle signs, like having to skip getting a new pair of truck nuts this year, or only being able to afford a 24 pack of Natural Light instead of a 30 pack of Coors, or the wife not being able to afford the good makeup that really hides the bruises.

Both Houses of Congress are controlled by Republicans, and you know they’re not going to stop Drumpf. What exactly are the Democrats supposed to do from the minority seats? They can file lawsuits, but Republicans also control the SCOTUS, so there’s no guarantee that logic or rational thought are going to win there,…

Is there anyone actually in Congress? Like with the Power of the Purse? You know, that thing spelled out in the Constitution? Or are the five thousand “We The People” ugly ass rear window truck stickers I se every morning on my commute only referencing a narrow, and completely incorrect reading of the second…

the idea would be to contain the carnage and protect the innocent.  if you just have one police officer follow him around nobody is stopping him from doing god knows what. 

7 is more than a few hours. Along with the fact that this started because he tried to ram a pedestrian. Just let him keep cruising! Are you serious?

Had one as a rental last week, nearly new K4. Had 3500 miles on it, so new enough. Was a solid car, zippy, but a bit interesting getting in and out of as I felt I was on the ground. Held the two large suitcases and the smaller carry-ons in the truck without a lot of issue. The steering wheel was flat on the top &…

Great (Airplane) reference.... Please take your star!!

So normally I would come on here and call conservatives a bunch of pejoratives, but I’ve had a number of social media interactions that make me think perhaps people legitimately don’t understand how economics and government budgets work. So this is going to be a rare, good-faith attempt from me to explain this stuff…

Given how insane everything is right now... How can you be sure you actually quit?!

Don’t get this twisted: Trump’s scattershot tariffs have absolutely nothing to do with world trade. That’s the misdirection play. Trump’s tariffs make no sense in terms of international trade because that’s not the purpose of them.

“It’s welcome news for folks who see the average price of a new car – $49,740 – and shutter.”

I picked a hell of a day to quit sniffin glue.

2nd: At some point automakers are gonna have to start thinking about reducing the complexity of their cars and actually giving a damn about making them easier to repair.  It’s unsustainable both economically and environmentally to make cars increasingly more expensive and difficult to repair every year.

It’s an often used picture and I’m going to guess some tweaking was done with the coloring to really bring out the color differences, like a photo of the northern lights versus how they look to the naked eye, but even so, it wouldn’t be possible if that blotchy makeup wasn’t there to begin with. 

Still, ATC did not make a mistake. This was most likely down to the UH-60 pilot looking at the wrong aircraft.

This SPECIFIC incident has nothing to do with Trump. Not even things he did the first time around, except insofar as ALL recent presidents have underfunded the FAA and ATC.

Came here to write this. The implications in the headlines are absurd. Yes, his actions will probably make an ATC staffing crisis worse, but be honest, and don’t try to connect a dot that isn’t there. This is peak clickbait trolling.

This is a nonsense article. Trump fired an advisory committee which has absolutely nothing to do with the day-to-day operations of the air traffic controllers. And the air traffic control system has been understaffed, due to an inability to find a sufficient number of new employees (like a great number of other…
