I got yelled at for this just last week! We had been sitting on the runway for 2 hours which was less than the scheduled flight time and I had to pee when I sat down. It was the bathroom or the seat.

You do know that we give handouts to oil and fossil fuel companies, right? Those aren’t going anywhere.

Ha! Which district do you represent?

I will have my popcorn handy. The folks who are currently applauding the death of the e-vehicle tax credit because ‘the market can’t make the business case for hybrids’ will be there stating that the oil industry needs to be propped up with my tax dollars to ‘preserve quality jobs’ and ‘maintain national security.’

Because oil’s death spiral won’t be caused by the world running out of it. It’ll be because we don’t want it.

Smdh... half of you equate authoritarian, pure socialism with having *any* socialist systems, like healthcare, of which we already have many, many of which work better than the prior systems. They say you get the politicians you deserve... I’m gonna take it a step farther and say not only have we got the dysfunctional…

Maduro is in charge now, Chavez died a few years ago.

What most idiots posting on here will scream is “socialism!”. The reality is that this is a case of economic nationalism and populism; vs sticking to free trade and sound economic principles.

I’ll take oversimplification for 1000 please.

Hell yeah!

Hmm. Are you sick of winning yet?

It may not be the Death Star just yet, but we took down a Super Star Destroyer.

But I just signed a 22 year loan on my 2017 Ford Megazord with the whale penis laser sword package, and I only work one day a week as a contracted honeybee de-winger. There’s no way I’ll be able to make the payments and still get bi-weekly goat yoga-puncture if gas goes up to $3.00 a gallon.

It’s all the government…

There’s definitely a certain romanticism to the whole #vanlife thing, but the realities are pretty far from instagram. First of all, nice VW vans (especially on the west coast) are pretty unobtainable for most people unless you’re talking some POS high-mileage Vanagon DL from the early 80's. They’re way overinflated…

You’re going to have plenty of time to make these shitposts when you’re living IN A VAN down by THE RIVER.

Neither Jalopnik nor any other Gizmodo site claim to be free from corporate bullshit or advocate such a lifestyle. The irony here is that these van-living hippies are claiming to be happier living this new anti-materialistic lifestyle, free from concerns about name recognition, but then working ads into their…

Who the fuck is Corey.

Now that I’m thinking about it. Living in a van is the opposite of simple. Not only can you not shit or shower, but you have to be a professional packer. Do you know what is really simple? Having a walk in closet with enough clothes to not regularly needing to do laundry. Real beds are simple. So are apartments…

So they basically have a low-paying, ad-hoc, no-benefits job then. That’s what this is - a job. I wouldn’t mind touring the continent in a camper van with a fuck buddy for grubby sponsorship money, either, but the idea that this is “freedom” is nuts. It’s creating an illusion to sell to people on social media, most of…

I’m starting to think that all the people that insert talk about Bernie Bros., etc. into the comments of every single article are just conservative shills trying to undermine Democratic unity. Anybody else getting that feeling?
