Univision has had a 40% stake in the Onion since January 2016.

They would rather have a high volume of reposted content from other sites to allow a greater content of Amazon ads than fewer good stories. It’s safe to say the AV Club, even the diminished version of the last couple years, is dead.

I thought that was very weird too. Literally half of a week.

Turns out, that’s a 1929 Mercedes-Benz SSK/Gazelle replica.

And, ESPN will hire him for commentary and pay him all the money they aren’t paying the people they let go. And shoe money too.

We should have unions for whole classes of worker, not just factory work. Wages have stagnated for 40 years for a reason. Workers should get a greater share of the pie they’re making.

That is because the American industrial boom which created the middle class was also accompanied by strong union representation. It is not just a Mexican problem either. The industrial plants moving into the Red States are not generating large amounts of wealth or middle class either, because there are no unions to…

Shep Smith has often stood out as the closest thing FOX news has to a decent human being. I often ask how it is that he hasn’t been let go by the network, and the answer I always get is that he knows where a significant number of bodies are buried.

I’m tired of reading about Alamo Drafthouse news because every time I read it I think “Oh it’s a bar” but then my brain corrects me and I remember it’s a movie theater chain. THEN I remember there’s not one remotely near me and news about it doesn’t affect me and I go get a beer because I was just thinking about beer.…

The lights were actually neon lamps and the stylist had their leads wrapped around the spark plug wire to act as an inductive pickup. It’s also an old time trick used by mechanics to see if a spark plug wire and spark plug was firing. You can do the same with an NE-2 neon lamp on an older car that has accessible…

I wouldn’t mind ventiports that lit up with the ignition timing. Would be perfect to find a non firing coil and looks cool at night :)

She misses her husband and the cars remind her of him.

If you understand that the cars hold sentimental value, then there’s nothing else to get. Never underestimate sentimentality. Especially when connected to cars.

You’re describing basically every job, though, in every industry. Unless you’re in an industry where they have to pay you overtime and so they try to limit your hours.

During the strike, my dealer only did oil changes; performed by the management.

In most cases stupid rules like these are unevenly enforced and primarily used as a cudgel to be wielded by spiteful, shitty people.

When we first moved to Northfield Township in 1990 (closer to 23 on Territorial), it was a haven from the urban sprawl of Ann Arbor and the Western Suburbs. You couldn’t build a house on less than 5 acres, there were 3 police cars in the local fleet, and Nixon Road was dirt and prevented hoards of traffic from…

Probably just more proof that there’s something profoundly wrong with me that it’s 9/11, the country’s going to shit, we’re under threat of nuclear annihilation—By our own President —and yet, seeing these wrecked arcade games has got me the most upset I’ve been today... (　´_ゝ`)
