The confederate flag is a racist symbol.

I went to St. Martin on my honeymoon in March 2017. At that point the craziness of the campaign, the first idiotic Sean Spicer pressers, and the Muslim ban were all anyone knew of Trump. 

I was talking about the difference between Acela and regular Amtrak trains. The benefits vs flying you mentioned are still there for a regular Amtrak train. The little bit shorter trip on Acela isn’t worth it to me vs a much-cheaper regular Amtrak train.

The bigger problem with Amazon warehouse is their ruthless pursuit of efficiency above all else. The metrics for things like number of items picked in an hour are so high as to be inhumane. Amazon workers are literally pissing in empty soda bottles rather than go to the bathroom, all to keep up with the numbers they…

You’re right, it doesn’t work for me. The old one was, to me, the best front end treatment Mercedes has done in a long time. It was a great modern take on classic Mercedes styling themes.

I personally am not a fan of Mercedes grafting the AMG GT’s upside down grille and squinty headlights onto the rest of the lineup. It just...doesn’t work.

I live just outside of DC. We have very few full-size pickups here but many, many, many Wranglers. Lots of them are stock, but basically every single brodozer around here is a Wrangler, with an occasional 4Runner mixed in. I assume the dozerbros around here choose Wranglers over pickups because they’re easier to park…

I hate inadvertent rear fog light use on euro cars AND these stupid GM reverse lights.

I’m a total lefty but I legit will go to the mat for Larry Hogan. My man personally negotiated with South Korea through his Korean wife to fly in a 777 full of covid tests. It sucks that due to total Cheeto incompetency this was necessary but he's been fantastic.

For the record, I’m all for punching Nazis. Yes this *could* be a deliberate dog whistle to white supremacists. There's a lot of literal Nazis out there and they get into specific nitpicky shit like this.

These pissant fuckers are refusing to wear masks, and their pissant red state politicians are declining to enforce mask-wearing, for one simple reason: right-wingers in the USA care more about abstract concepts like unlimited individual liberty, than they do about solving real-world problems.

I was very nice to the cashier and even complimented her gold Timex T80 watch. When I got home I sent the store a message through facebook, calmly explaining what no-mask lady did. No reply yet...

It’s been especially disappointing to me, if not altogether surprising, that there’s been such an outpouring of vile, racist shit in response to George Floyd and all the necessary conversations his killing has precipitated.

I say this in all seriousness as a Maryland resident: Maryland governor Larry Hogan. I voted against his ass but damn if he hasn’t been thoroughly competent during covid and in general never has engaged in anything that resembles the batshit mutation of the GOP we’ve found ourselves with.

I’m honestly both completely baffled and yet a little unsurprised that somehow being told to wear a mask in public is some grievous violation of individual liberty. REALLY? Covering your fucking face in a pandemic, in the 21st century, like we literally are in the future and the science people say put this shit on…

🤣

Rozier’s face when he learned those people he sees wearing Jordans and Beats paid for them with money they earned from jobs:

I went down this rabbit hole when I encountered someone else questioning the racist past of Cream of Wheat. That HOLY SHIT THAT’S RACIST ad is but one of many.

Allow me to comfort you, as an extremely fit vegan and occasional consumer of heavily customized Taco Bell items, which upon reading that statement, you might think I’m your worst drive thru nightmare, but actually I’m not!

The GOP hasn’t twisted itself into a pretzel at all. It’s a coalition of 4 distinct groups of ideological puritans who are more interested in maintaining the purity of their ideals than they are in any solutions to real-world problems: fundamentalist christian chastity belters; lowercase-L libertarians who don’t want…
