Depends on what he is parodying. If he’s parodying the American Girl brand/store, then, yes, he is protected. However, you lose a lot of that protection if you use someone else’s copyrighted/trademarked material to parodying something else, such as the concept of “Karen.”

If I might make an attempt at nuance here, the idea that many psychiatrists are too quick to throw pills at something and call it a day is both true and a big problem. I speak from personal experience - I struggled for years futilely against clinical depression with a series of RXs that never much helped until I…
It was a winner when it was introduced, and it goes out the same way, gracefully, and in great style.
“Kimberly Guilfoyle... tested positive for COVID-19.”
A small reminder that he once “joked” that he should have his face added to Rushmore a couple of years back.
You forgot to mention that since 2009 the park has been closed to fireworks due to dangers of fire and to show respect for the tribes.
Not so much a “mechanic’s” story, and not video worthy, but it does involve working in the industry, mechanics, and a call from the FBI... So I’ll just post it here...
The red warning light would be only slightly less visible under a red dome than in its’ stock condition. The green one would all but disappear, depending on how saturated the red coloring of the dome is/originally was, since the red and green lenses between them would filter out almost all the bulb’s emitted light.
That fluid was not to structurally reinforce the helmet, it is was to allow the diver to dive down to a deeper depth in a more stable fashion.
I own and maintain a BMW 850, everything else needs to go unsaid
Lifelong power plant operator and pilot. Analog. I’ve preached and preached to electrical engineers and techies who always want to “upgrade” instruments to digital. I can glance at an analog control board and my brain will intake several instruments at the same time. Rate of change is also comprehensible in a very…
I reject the notion that making a digital cluster resemble an analogue gauge is purely skeuomorphic.
Most vehicles haven’t had true analogue gauges in a long time as far as I’m aware. Just because it has a needle doesn’t mean it won’t die when the electrical system goes to shit. Most modern vehicles just pull all the needle information off the data bus and then represent it on the needles. If the electrical system…
Corvairs were the beginning of the GM cycle of, design a technically ambitious car - beancount it into halfassery - slowly improve it year over year until it’s what it should’ve been all along - that’s the last model year because sales already tanked and the damage is done. GM did that repeatedly until they lost the…
Indeed. Facts are that in terms of safety, the Corvair was no worse than most cars of the time. Maintenance and upkeep were a factor when considering crashes. If people monitored and maintained proper tire pressures, the handling would never have been an issue. At least GM had the reasonably proper tire pressures…
Is this how Beer Brat are made?
Ah, the Lost Cause myth rears its ugly head again about the War of Southern Sedition.
If only the people who actually decided to seced from the US had left behind some sort of documentation of these complex reason for their decision...oh wait, they did!
