I guess you forgot what Biden said literally on the very first news conference he gave once the war started where he specifically said that Israel should take heed from what we as Americans did in the aftermath of 9/11 in other words- don’t make the same mistake of getting involved in two utterly useless and deadly…

Maybe I misstated what I was trying to get at. The way I see it now is that the media is giving him a free pass. Everything this man has done is truly awful. He should be in prison by now. He is out there saying some absolute batshit insane things these days. Somehow we really don’t see that being exposed in any of…

2nd gear:
Can we not? I am so sick and tired of seeing one article after another going on as if Trump’s already gotten the election all tied up. The man is a terrible person who is actively quoting Hitler and proclaiming himself dictator. The majority of us see this and will obviously not be voting for that piece of…

What I was getting at was that being younger and healthier isn’t a guarantee from getting potentially very sick.

The people doing things like this clearly don’t care that in many cases families have spent years building a business to support themselves only for it to be ruined by their idiotic, immature bullshit.

Fuck Putin

Not really....  Keep in mind we are both in our 40's. Both physically fit. Eat healthy. All of those things. The issue is that the way people are affected by Covid varies greatly from person to person and does so regardless of their health. On one hand my 89 year old Uncle got it early on in the pandemic and only…

Except you will have issues if you live in a state that requires smogging. None of these will pass.

My wife had two days of having difficulty breathing. She also became a bit delirious and wasn’t making a lot of sense. She ordered some Paxlovid but it came two days late. As soon as she started taking it the symptoms dramatically improved. I went ahead and ordered some in case I get it . What I don’t get is how I…

I absolutely hate wearing masks. But I figure its not really a big deal to wear one during the 15 minutes I’m in the grocery store. I hate shopping anyway so its not like it makes it any worse. Same with airports. We are flying to LA in a few weeks. Its only a 45 min flight so big whoop.

We both got the latest boosters. My wife caught Covid from a co-worker and it was pretty bad. Many people forget its still very much out there and you can still get very sick, boosted or not. We thought we were going to have to go to the emergency room for a bit. Needless to say We are back to masking in the stores…

Don’t really have one. But I realized my Tacoma that I bought the year I graduated high school will turn 20 in 2 more years. So I hope it will make it. Just because.

I grew up in the deep, rural south surrounded by very poor people. We didn’t have a ton of money but mom was a school teacher so that came with healthcare and now she gets a pension. Most of the people in the area had very little schooling. The kid across the street from me was the first in his family to graduate high…

Fair enough and I apologize for the nasty things I said. That was really rude.

These days I am VERY much concerned where we seem to be heading. I’ve studied the time period from the 1920's-early 30's in Germany heavily and whats happening with the GOP and what is more than clearly a cult of personality in the form of…

I saw that too. WTF? 

Really? I was not at all aware that the stuff was being sent over to India. I too have nothing against India, but even my friend from India agrees that when the tech companies we work for send work to India, there’s at least a 50% chance that we’re going to have to redo the work. Sending stuff there to “ Save money”…

Its because a lot of people who don’t make much money will in turn try to convince others that they do by buying something expensive to show off. Personally I think these trucks look stupid as fuck and almost feel embarrassed for them. Yet I am still driving a 27 year old Tacoma. 

Americans by and large are pretty stupid. The fact that we have a coin toss between Biden and a guy who is out there literally making Hitler quotes is irrefutable proof in addition to buying overpriced small-penis compensating trucks

1st gear:
No shit. Seems like both automakers and dealers decided that the artificially inflated prices caused by the pandemic should remain permanent. And they do so at their own peril since as articles here indicate that people are simply keeping their cars longer as a result. I make a 6-figure income but I scoff at…

First of all, how do you assume I’m a “Leftist”? These days I associate myself as being an anti-Nazi. Because the other party is more or less a modern day reincarnation of the Nazi party with their own spray-tanned Hitler wannabe, out on the campaign trail literally repeating verbatim quotes from Mein Kempf. And since…
