  • Yup. In MO we've seen not far off of $100mil in state tax revenue and it's only been legal since Feb 2023. At least one city near me was pushed into a surplus because of the extra revenue (admittedly, they were running at a very, very small deficit previously, but still).

  • Tornadoes suck, but they're not even close to on the same level as hurricanes. I say that as someone from tornado alley and saw what happened to Joplin in 2011.

  • The town, as in 20% of the residents of Newbern are whire.

  • I'm pretty sure the main reason people hate Jobs is because by all accounts he was an absolute ass and was objectively a wackadoodle when it came to that homeopathic healing shit and not showering.

  • Oh man I had forgotten about scratch. So much time spent there in middle school and high school classes. Still kinda surprised I wasn't a CS major.

  • The Deep, is that you?

  • Or more likely, they knew nut didn't care, because they did all the same tbings.

  • I'm aware, and I'm more than happy to trade my car for my neck in any situation.

    The issue is the proliferation of big fuckoff trucks. Had it been another reasonably sized car, it likely would have been a simple bumper replacement for both cars. Instead, I'm out a car for a significant period of time in an area where doing anything without a car is essentially just not a thing.

  • The thumbnail kbin decided to pull for this is funny. "A message to space", what's the message? A giant S.O.S.? Feels like it should be.

  • Ah yes, because something you know ahead of time is a comedy/tragegy/what have you is totally the same as randoms on the internet

  • It's honestly ridiculous. My sedan was totaled last year after being rear ended at a red light at maybe 5mph by a big fuck off truck. Minor cosmetic damage to their bumper, completely crushed the rear frame of my cat.

    Thankfully, no one was hurt beyond bruising, which is the most important part.

  • I've got a pretty decent stomach for horrible stuff. Having unfettered internet access from a very young age tends to desensitize you to a lot of things.

    I damn near couldn't finish it, and honestly I wish I didn't. It's just so, so awful.

  • "Yeah Trump is openly talking about being a dictator, but at least he not Biden"

    What a fucking dipshit.

  • Of course he did. He's a good little fascist lapdog

  • I believe they changed it to just Max (because heaven forbid they keep the same name for more than 18 months)

  • "Anyone who runs is a VC. Anyone who stands still is a well-disciplined VC."

  • To be fair, a record low is still record engagement

  • Chrome almost got a monopoly because for a time, it was legitimately better than most the competition. Now you have consumer inertia, and the things that make chrome dogshit are unfortunately not things that the average person cares out.

  • Maybe it's just a case of hindsight being 20/20, but it in some ways really feels like they were borderline asking to get sued.
