I hear you, and I’ve got nothing against Target, we also shop there occasionally. Based on my personal experiences with Kirkland brand diapers, I am a huge fan. We used them until my son was fully potty-trained, and in the early days I did a cost-analysis spreadsheet because I am a huge nerd and analyzing data is my…

But even with that marker, it’s more expensive to be poor.

This is pure gold.

A 1970 Ford F-100. I wasn’t embarrassed of the truck, I was embarrassed by my lack of funds to maintenance it like it deserved. I bought the thing for $500 cash in hand in 1998, that classic Mill Valley Green still showing through the rust and lichen. That $500 and the cleaning supplies to make it habitable broke my…

I haven’t even visited NYC in decades, but I thought this sort of thing was reasonably common? As people renovate spaces within century-old buildings and apartments change hands, some spaces get forgotten and fall through the cracks. I had a college friend who got an extra bathroom like this. She framed out a full…

I’m too old to appreciate CodeMiko the character or the Twitch channel, but what I do applaud is the Technician’s skillset and determination to break into the industry. She’s smart, she studied hard to get the skills she has, she works hard, and she invested in the hardware and software up front. She’s a true…

what she described as a “scary” late-night car ride during which Cawthorn drove her to the “middle of nowhere,”

May I also suggest LG’s 32" FHD 165Hz HDR10 Monitor at Costco for just $229? I’d link it, but Kinja is engaging in fuckery with embedded links right now.

Is it terribly cynical of me to suspect that he was somehow in on the attempted dognapping and things got more violent than he expected? I hope I am wrong. I hope he’s an innocent victim and makes a full recovery. I’m glad the fur babies were recovered unharmed.

What a great and sensitive answer to the question.

Excellent read, thank you. When McLachlan’s second album, Solace, came out in 1991 I was 21 years old living in Seattle and riding the emotional summer wave of the awesome music scene. Tori Amos’ Little Earthquakes came out soon afterwards. Both albums made huge impacts on me and got a lot of playtime in my headphones…

Please don’t misinterpret my concern over structural integrity for a concern about crash safety. With a basic mechanical engineering background it’s easy to see that the tendency of the walls of the box to collapse laterally is held in check by the tension of the crossbeams running across the roof. Remove that support,…

I’m talking about chopping up these structural frames, which reduce twisting of the box:

I just expect that to completely fall off at any speed or on any roadway bumpier than tarmac.

Every time I see an interesting bus/box truck/Sprinter modification I wonder how much attention was paid to the structural integrity of the vehicle. They have reinforcements and crossmembers running through the bulkheads and overhead, and when someone cuts those away to make way for a cool window, or a new door, or…

This article really spoke to me, thank you. My Dad passed on many years ago, but he was also a very intelligent and cerebral man who bought into right-wing propaganda from Nixon to Cheney. I spent a good portion of my life trying to make sense out of the cognitive dissonance, or trying to impress him despite the fact…

Bear in mind also that Springsteen had been very publicly anti-Trump throughout the summer and fall of 2020, and that officers on the force in Monmouth County, N.J. are almost certainly overwhelmingly pro-Trump. It’s possible one of them saw an opportunity to embarrass this Springsteen for their orange overlord.

LA is jam packed with the worst mannered drivers(also Motorcycle lane splitters)

Speaking only from personal experience, if you want an Android tablet (and I have nothing against them, I’ve owned a few), do not bother with a Fire at all. Just get a Samsung Galaxy Tab in any recent model. Yes, these prices above are insane. Also insane are the proprietary restrictions on a Fire tablet when you try…
