  • Are they saying that getting eel and putting bbq on it is wrong ?

    because i don't see how it adds up different.

  • I am a dipshitted 20th century racist.

    I spend 30 or 32 years being a leftist and thinking that because I could point out everyone else's racism I must not be racist.

    Well fuck me when I finally had a very brave black acquaintance say no PEB you are a ignorant racist and you don't even know it. Microaggressions for the loss.

    I spent a few more years denying it. Then one day it came to me that yeah ... I have a ton of racist baggage that I don't know how to address. I have spent about 20 years since then reading, watching, listening, writing, and speaking and fighting it out with my stupidity and when I could talk to people about it.

    Some of the needle moved from my intellectual efforts, but I'm still so nervous around black people that I'm scared of doing some microaggression and pushing someone into beating the shit out of me that I act super too nice which is just another fucking microaggression.

    And then when I'm hurt or vulnerable it all falls apart and all my efforts fail and I end up experiencing feelings of racism yet again.

    I hate it about me. But yeah if me this dipshit leftist can struggle to come to understand that I am still racist ... I don't know. I'm pretty dumb so I see myself as below average intelligence with a big mouth.

    But maybe everyone else here has this figured out, and Kagan is writing to me specifically about the stupid racism.

    I don't think so, but maybe.

  • Internal Combustion Engines certainly have higher maintenance requirements and have way more parts that can break than in EVs.

    And Internal Combustion Engines require lots more fluids. So yeah as anyone that had owned an ICE vehicle and now owns an EV will tell you that EVs are just simpler to own.

  • new kind of maths: that is a pair-of-bollock curve

  • They should quit July 4th but stopping is stopping.

  • This speaks to part of me very deeply. Dairy VP-ly.

  • Hannah Arendt: The Origins of Totalitarianism Expanded Edition (LOA #389). Library of America, 22 Apr. 2025, pp. 634–35.

  • 300w panels are like $200.

  • BMW has that tied up with "subscription needed heated seats"

  • Buy a used EV. They all drop in price dramatically.

  • It is not just Mayor Mamdani doing that, and I am glad to see a politician make waves.

  • This is gonna be a "we are starting the Make America Even Greater Again party and here are our hats", isn't it ?

  • I want to revisit this topic after the election. Until then FETTERMAN

  • "Do you know how to use microfiche ?" is my generational secret handshake

  • Every day Bender seems more and more realistic.

  • Cheese is stuff that comes in flat orange squares in small packages of plastic. It is called Canadian cheese in Canadian.

  • Fundamentally, cheese is a concentrated source of fat and protein derived from a liquid base, structured into a semi-solid or solid form through a process called coagulation.

    That is exactly what someone trying to sell you a cheese made out of cashews would say.

  • It all had to funnel through their lazer tag empire.
