  • Guys, I know we all mean well, but no amount of activism and voting is going to make a difference anymore. They will suspend the Constitution and ensure we never have elections again. The Democratic experiment is over and we can't keep thinking that we'll be able to vote it out.

    If you want to help, try and do it tangibly. Organize underground support networks for your queer and minority friends, seek or create covert resistance orgs, and have a realistic plan for pogroms.

  • I went to a Hotel Furniture liquidator for some new furniture. Saw a good looking office chair and they only wanted $20 for it.

    Brought that bad boy home and only then did I find out that they had sold me a new Herman Miller Aeron for only $20. Completely insane.

  • I used to work in an Engineering role in the Detroit auto industry. I think this is a good thing. The big three have been stagnantly focused on building their cars to be as cheap and shitty as possible for decades. Over bloated and perpetually behind the curve.

    Maybe this will light a fire under their asses and motivate them to invest in EVs properly and improve their quality.

    Probably not though.

  • Make sure to loop a lock through the frame and both wheels. I use an ABUS frame lock on my rear wheel (never has to be removed) and a kryptonite chain lock for the front wheels and frame.

    If you want to get really secure, replace fasteners with tamper resistant versions.

    Nothing is ever theft proof, but there's lots of ways to make your bike very theft resistant.

  • Pirate a CAD program, learn how to use it, then pay for the certification test.

    After passing, you apply for CAD designer jobs or do Freelance CAD. You'll have a leg up on everyone else if you have that certification. Many of these jobs are remote and don't require college.

    CAD programs may seem daunting at first, but they are actually pretty straightforward. If you can do basic math and play video games, you can do CAD.

  • I just started skipping the middleman entirely and now sprinkle lead chips directly onto my food. Saves tons of time and gives it that sweet sweet lead flavor. Mmmmmmm

    Really puts me in touch with my roman era ancestors. 😊

  • This is what happens when any organization is run by an endless cascade of conspiracy theorist nutjobs. People who are unable to conceive or accept reality are also unable to manage reality including finances. Their strategy for everything is to gaslight and throw blame. There's not even a shred of critical thinking about how they're actually going to manage or solve the problem.

    Gaslighting a bank will not work as well as gaslighting voters.

  • Definitely watch Capaldi. His Doctor is right up there with Tenant in my book.

    Be advised though, if you continue watching, Jodie Whittaker's seasons are... different...

    It's not Jodie. They changed writers and directors after Capaldi and I was not a fan.
