That one was my favorite because I don’t think many knew it was there, the section was always empty, and in the years they had it, the thing kept working unlike all the other stores…

Sears is the one I remember using the most. My parents would let me hang out in the all but abandoned video game section while they bought a lawnmower, some pants or maybe a frying pan.

Bingo. At this point I don’t care if he had a direct role in it or not, it’s still a total failure of leadership. The man has no ability to lead, just slogan (and really badly at that).

Well said. One last point, the fucks in charge right now are just itching for violence and are scratching as hard as they can to open a wound.

There are lines though and it can get blurry. As an example, my family accuses me of virtue signaling because I refuse to engage in their racism. That I refuse to judge people by the color of their skin or their religion, I am called every name in the book.

Now, this is clearly not my problem, and I am not virtue signaling, but it’s a semi-loaded term these days, used CONSTANTLY by reactionaries.

Maybe the article is a bit, I’ll give you that. However, I can’t condemn her for her lines, no skin off my nose. I’m not upset by virtue signalling, if anything it’s good information on how to treat and interact with those people. The virtues my family signals for example, have been quite valuable to how I interact with them (as little as possible).

Tough choice but I’m reluctantly picking World. It’s probably because as a kid I had a NES, but never a SNES, so all my SMW play was at friends or the demo kiosk at the store.

Not until I was a 20something when I traded a used motherboard for an old SNES and played the shit out of it.

Whelp, guess I’m now waiting for a call from my dad where he calls me a terrorist.

I’m pretty sure they will bring kimbal and then put up a “no musks club” sign.

Don’t get me wrong, not defending rfk either, this will lead to all kinds of problems as people even eat politically these days. My own family is on the animal fat train, after being on the coconut oil train, after being on the avocado oil train…

Maybe instead of one fad after another, you just moderate and enjoy (clearly projecting here).

The problem, as with everything, is that people insist on seeing everything as black and white, true and false, zero sum.

Some saturated fats aren’t going to kill you, and some things that are healthy in the aggregate, also have negatives (I love spinach, and it’s healthy, but it’s got a lot of oxalic acid).

But people will never, ever understand nuance and moderation so it’s just going to be this stupid back and forth forever, until we die of too much or too little anyway.

I’m pretty sure we’ve crossed that rubicon, the last election was just that. Cross your fingers if you must, but I don’t believe for one second that votes matter anymore in the “united” states.

Been to the grocery store? I’d say it’s ramping up right on schedule.

Because he’s just the personality in front of this shit, this has been brewing for decades. He has no clue what he’s doing, but they let him because it works as a distraction while the millers and voughts dismantle things.

It’s not wrong, it’s a lie. He does absolutely know how tariffs work, but he also knows that most Americans don’t, I can promise you, if you ask a dozen random strangers who pays the tariffs, you will end up hearing the presidents words.

I’m convinced this place is designed to kill people. I mean, they defunded noaa, cancelled FEMA, and built a hastily constructed, non-storm rated facility and dropped it in hurricane alley. It’s already flooded once.

My god cat with disturbingly human lips, the internet is back.

Seriously, I love it. Correct amount of humor and functionality. I’m on the road but I’ll be signing up for sure.

No shit, that’s back?

I loved it when I watched it in my youth. The theme song still pops up on my playlist once in a while. I did try to rewatch it like 5-10 years ago but it didn’t connect like it did when I was young. Still, lots of fond memories from it and how much it inspired me.

I’ve been wondering when it would come around again.

I’m on year 9 of my 10 year car plan. Current vehicle is supposed to become the kidmobile and I planned on a new one.

I won’t buy a new car though. If I do replace mine, it will be a used, unconnected car. I am so tired of iPads on wheels.

I will admit, when the first mentions of it came out, and it was going to be this cheap, capable, all-electric futuremachine, I was tempted to put down a deposit. At first I thought the design was functional, to keep manufacturing cheap and have a durable, Midwest-proof vehicle between the stainless and aluminum.

It turned out to be 100% the opposite of what I had imagined, so thankfully figured I’d wait. Decided keep my 10 year old car until it NEEDS replacement (which it does not).

Nothing is wrong with reverse parking, just like nothing is wrong with front parking.

Personally I front park because I feel it’s safer pulling in, so I can ensure I have the space I need to back out. It’s the routine I have, that works for me. I know lots of people who have their backing in routine and it works for them.

We’re all wired differently, we might get there on a different path, but we’re all headed in the same direction.
