  • We live under a fascist regime. Now what?

  • Yeah. All of Becky Chambers’ books are like that. Very warm, sweet sci-fi. No cruel people, no negativity. Just comfort and compassion. Her “Wayfarer” series (starting with “The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet”) is also worth reading.

  • I think they’re some of them pokey-mans or beyblades that the kids all go crazy for nowadays.

  • I LOVE 80s low budget sci fi movies!

  • Granted. Rack that up to “too many issues” as I said. The Cybertruck can still have the clean (less rounded) edges without being sharp enough to cause harm. There are other cars with “angular” designs which don’t cause bodily harm.

  • Unpopular opinion - I like the look & the idea of the Cybertruck. I think it’s a cool looking vehicle. I like the design and the concept of an edgy light-duty electric pickup truck.

    I’d never buy one - they’re too expensive, have way too many issues, and Musk is a fucking chode. But I take issue with people who call it “ugly.”

    Personally, I think most “traditional” pickup trucks are ugly. The F150, Ram, Silverado? Those are at the very best - boring. They’re definitely not attractive. At least the Cybertruck is a fresh concept for a pickup.

    I recently bought a Hyundai Ioniq 5. It shares a couple design elements of the Cybertruck- simple polygons, angular, sharp edges. Obviously not nearly as extreme, but if a more reliable & less shithead-led company released a wildly / surreally designed vehicle similar to the Cybertruck, I’d consider it.

  • Supreme Court rules once again that American citizens have no right to privacy.

  • Not to mention the entire series of “Scorcher” movies, starring the famous Tugg Speedman.

  • I heard it was a sick ostrich.

  • Pot, meet Kettle. You two have so much in common.
