As long as there is substance to the reasons for pride, yes...

Yeah, and the problem isn't the trains, it's the politics, and ultimately the voters.

The train would make things better, and we could build it, but the will to do so isn't there.

Yeah, it's not extinct yet, but free worksite coffee is endangered where it was thriving 3 decades ago

I think it might get a lot of people who don't like what's happening but accept it to cross over into not accepting it.

I'm not super hopeful that it would matter legislatively or judicially, but I might be the kick in the pants the population needs to go on a general strike, or take other actions.

I have my doubts that we did it twice. 2024 looks fishy. I'm glad it's finally starting to get talked about

Only assholes use two seats when more than half the seats are full.

People who claim more than their share of a limited resource are the reason society isn't nicer.

In the US most employers used to provide coffee and some kind of creamer free for employees.

About 25-30 years ago the capitalists realized their employees wouldn't quit over not having free coffee, so they stopped providing free coffee.

Maybe you got the custom from them, but they have decivilized while y'all have maintained?

I don't like violence.

But some people need to get punched in the mouth

Some brave patriot needs to test it and demand a jury trial

Assuming the election wasn't hacked, yeah...

I have my doubts about the election (and I'm a big data engineer with a cyber security cert)

It's really sad that we practically have to forgive them if we want to progress as a society. Because I agree with your sentiment...

But

We can't exterminate them. They are gonna live here on the other side of this, whatever that looks like. Those who have a genuine change and see not just that trump was wrong, but that they were either wrong or very very gullible should be forgiven and accepted as allies. We're gonna need all the people we can get on our side through what's coming.

"We tried to warn you. Welcome to the resistance."

There are a lot of people who wear the label catholic because they always have, not because they identify with other catholics or believe that the pope is the earthly voice of god.

JD Vance is a fascist white supremacist who happens to be catholic. The fascism and white supremacy being more important to him than the catholicism...

The bit about calling sam out and down with lies makes it pretty clear that he views it as a counter attack

Currently unavailable on amazon, but this is where I bought it:

I have this drying rack, and... I LOVE it!

But the knife holder is the biggest problem. All the bits are modular so you can set it up with the knife holder not having something right above it, but my favorite knife is too long to sit in the knife holder without stabbing the countertop. I solved the problem by getting one of those magnetic knife holders and mounting it to the side of the rack.

Also, when people who come over to my place for dinner or hanging out, about half of them make a comment about how awesome the drying rack is.

(I'm 47 and I got this rack about 5 years ago)

I would argue that the deployment orders for the 2003 Iraq war were illegal, but the people who refused to follow them are the ones who got in trouble.

I really hope you're right

Are you a helicopter pilot? I thought you rotated with power out, just not as fast as you would without the tail rotor. I could be wrong... I only worked on the engines and used them as a passenger. I've only flown sail planes...

I mean, you do have some control during autorotation descent, but it's at best an extremely hard landing if your pilot is really skilled. They build crumple zones into the seat mounts for them.

It's a pretty cool technique. You adjust your rotor pitch to let you fall faster which let you put/keep angular momentum into your rotor, then at the last minute before slamming into the ground you pull hard on the collective and turn all that angular momentum in your rotor into lift to make it so that you don't slam the ground at full speed. You can manipulate the cyclic control (direction controls) during autorotation, but you're spinning the whole time, so it's very hard to guide an autorotation to a specific landing area.

I'm polyamorous. I won't even date someone who dates cops.
