Can’t we make him send up one “advanced Hubble telescope” for every thousand starlinks? Seems like a decent trade off. This way we can see much further into space and get full global internet connection at the same time. That internet connection could be useful to watch the live feeds from the fleet of new space…

I’ll be shocked if electric cars aren’t soon the dominant form of Pikes Peak racer. No power loss at altitude is just too huge of an advantage now that batteries have the necessary duration.

That said, I just... don’t care as much about Pikes Peak since it’s been fully paved. I’m sure it’s safer, it’s definitely…

Whenever I see a new Porsche’s headlights in my rearview mirror:

I think those are LED lights behind diffusers. Because those fins are behind glass or plastic. Meaning either one of two things: This is the inside of the doorsill, or this is the back tailgate.

I mean... she has a #1 Billboard hit, so that’s only showing your own lack of cultural awareness instead of your intended message of “why should I care about these insignificant people”.

What a fucked up world we live in that a woman can’t call the cops on the guy who shot her for fear the cops would execute innocent bystanders.

This.  Dad always told me, 4 little patches of rubber are all that is holding you to the road; make them the best you can.

My students say they prefer the connection of face to face (even though I’m teaching them from behind a mask and face shield. I’m teaching a class that’s online and in person at the same time.  Students have to sign up for in person seats as our auditorium can only hold 1/3 of them at a time with the social distancing…

Because, by and large, college students just aren’t that bright. I saw some being interviewed on TV yesterday and they were all saying ‘Yeah I’m gonna go to parties and not wear a mask, I’m young and a virus can’t hurt me!’

I’m a good distance removed from college at this point, and I realize there’s a business component to the colleges wanting students on campus, but why the hell would students be going back on campus right now?

I love the made-in-Slovakia “Matador” tires on this van.

Palate cleanser

Thanks for your response (sincerely - I wasn’t expecting a non-snarky response, and am very pleasantly surprised by the time and thought you put into it). We may just end up disagreeing on this point, but it seems to me like you’re conflating minstrel and vaudeville, which overlap but are not the same thing. A…

I know this is Gawker-lite, so this is a big ask, but instead of being snarky, can you give me an actual explanation as to how throwing your arms out to the side while on your knees - a more or less universal pose to end dance routines - is racist imagery?  Is it because it was sometimes done to end racist…

The universe started with and still has all the hydrogen it will ever have. It can’t go bad, as it doesn’t degrade into anything as it’s the most basic element in the universe. Now, it can combine with things like oxygen (water) or sulfur (rotten egg smell), but it’s pretty inert and doesn’t do so willingly.

I hate when dudes rap about how much they like fucking. I see nothing wrong with applying that same standard to Cardi and Meg. That doesn’t mean mocking them, it just means ignoring some of their content and snickering when writers act like this routine is ground breaking and revelatory. Foxy Brown, Eve, Li’l Kim off…

Tab? You can’t have you a tab unless you order something!

I think you have managed to choose two vehicles which combined definitely outstrip my C5 Allroad 6mt in maintenance and reliability issues while both being not as punchy or comfortable on road.

your fly is open

Still don’t know why the solution to the racist police state is to change voice actors for PoC characters.
