I wish I hadnt made it past 20, who the fuck wants to live past 50?

I find a random 3 hour youtube video and put it on.

If its something I’m interested in I’m gonna watch it instead of falling asleep.

Its a small convection oven, that works more efficiency because the heating element is like an inch above the food, and heating a very tightly confined area, so intense temperatures can be more concentrated and easily achieved.

THe law and orders always show the cops mistreating suspects, and always being justified in the end because even though they didnt have an ounce of evidence when they beat the shit out of him… they manage to asspull evidence at the end of the show to justify everything.

Thus normalizing police brutality, and creating the image in the public at large that if you got brutalized by the police then you deserved it, and if theres no evidence of you commiting a crime then you’re not innocent, just a sneaky bastard that got away with it.

Also the court case should be tied up in a nice bow and over with in a couple hours. They are totally not thing that can take weeks to go through.

Yep. 24 hour news cycle is desperate for content to fill the void.

So anytime anything happens, they just hammer on it for days.

Which is also why they get so weirdly excited/gleeful when something tragic happens like a mass shooting or whatever, because they have days, even weeks of coverage without having to scrape the bottom of the barrel.

Many countries have HoA’s.

Why America has them is, simply put, racism. HoA’s got started after WW2, specifically to keep non-white people from moving into white neighborhoods.

and a lot of them are still used for this purpose to this day. just not as overtly

I’d rather have a shit neighbor with an overgrown yard than some wannabe dictator who alienated their children and takes out their hatred on the neighborhood with bullshit fines and harassment.

in America, at least… Racism.

Thats literally it.

HoA’s became a major thing after WW2, in large part, to keep black and hispanic people from moving into white neighborhoods… with rare exceptions for “servants”.

literally the first words out of my mouth. seeing a news headline about TiVo feels like i’m back in 2001

Just ban the sales of pervert glasses, period.

It’ll accomplish the same thing, but be a lot easier legally.

Uh… I think wires are crossed here.

I’m talking about coins minted by the US mint. I’m not talking about every chudware coin thats churned out for “collectable” markets by private non-currency coin shaped item makers

They’ve always been called memorial coins. They memorialize an event. Like, in 1921 Alabama had a Memorial half dollar celebrating its 100 years as a state, and it had the first and the current living governor at the time on the coin together, and while technically a currency coin, it was also a memorial coin for the 100 years so thats why it had a still living person on it.

No, it wouldnt be legal, because it’d still be in violation of the general law of putting living people on currency.

Its just there is extra special DONT PUT LIVING FUCKING PRESIDENTS ON 1 DOLLAR COINS law on top of it.

Those were “memorial” coins, which generally arent curency and have lax regulation.

This current one is a 1 dollar for circulation as currency coin, and there is explicit law against putting a living president on a 1 dollar coin.

go one step further and open it up and unplug the wifi antennas, just to curtail it even further.

To answer the title question… many years ago I experienced a polar vortex that caused about a 100 degree temperature drop in less than 24 hours, that was pretty fun.

To address the body of OP, I would start taking important things out of the house and storing them somewhere safe… but I would think more storms = more damage = more likely the insurance cant deny you.

always do this to at least two tires.

Most cars have 1 spare on board, not 2.

the only criticism I have with this, is that I would say to add a quality used car. nothing fancy, nothing flashy, just something with rock steady reliability and low long term maintenance costs.

theres plenty of republicans that pretend to be democrats. Hell, some of them even got elected and helped get us to where we are now.

This is also why the powers that be drug their heels and took 10 years to implement the 15 dollar minimum wage.

because they knew that by the time they did, it would solve nothing due to inflation and cost of living rises.

So they got the brownie points for passing it, but still have the desperate, manipulable base thats one bad month away from losing everything.

and they’d also get to go “God, we just gave you the 15 dollar minimum wage, and now you want 25? Stop being greedy and live within your means!”

Which is why he loves himself more than anyone else.
