That submarine was trailing the Russian ships the whole time, the Russian ships had no idea, and there are more submarines in the waters nearby. The whole purpose was to show the Russian ships that they are sitting ducks.

I argued like a couple having a fight with a psychiatrist about me being autistic when I was hospitalized once. We had a literal antagonized fight over me being autistic in front of two other doctors. She raised her voice at and wouldn’t believe me even though I told her I had been diagnosed by a psychologist that administered the ADOS, have seen said psychologist for months, my friends that are psychologists are confident I’m autistic, and that I was in special ed classes since 4th grade. I was seeking absolutely nothing related to it; I just happened to mention it in passing when I said I didn’t like sleeping at the hospital and missed my bed.

Warning: sarcastic vent session

what even is the point of a Supreme Court Justice reporting if it will have no consequence?

The fuel savings translate into about $600 less in gas costs over the life of a new vehicle, NHTSA projects.

I don’t understand this. Let’s be extra safe and say I currently drive a car that gets 30 mpg 15k miles per year and the average fuel price was $3.60. If I switched to a vehicle that got 50 mpg, my savings per year alone would be $720.

15,000 mi / 30 mi/g x $3.60/gal = $1,800

15,000 mi / 50 mi/g x $3.60/gal = $1,080

$1,800/yr - $1,080/yr = $720/yr

Still being extra safe, let’s assume the car only makes it 100k miles, that’s a savings of ~$4,800 for the life of the vehicle.

100,000 mi / 15,000 mi/yr = 6.67 yr

6.67 yr x $720/yr = $4,802.40

$4,800 > $600

Again, this is being safe with a car that is fuel efficient, a person that travels a relatively short amount, and with low fuel prices. What am I misunderstanding??

I visited Colorado ~4 years ago. I remember thinking the people in Denver were impressively nice, especially us being from Florida. But, once we got to our Airbnb a few miles outside of the city, things were different. The Airbnb owner, while still nice enough to meet with and welcome us to his property, just had to talk about politics. It was that victim complex where he was being told what to do by the liberals and blah blah blah… One of the ways he was getting back at them was by encouraging all visitors to feed the wild deer, something that was allegedly made illegal by liberals to control him. Maybe he thought we would care about his politics and even agree with him because we were light-skinned from Florida, I was in the military, and my traveling partner was a cop, but we had far left political views and never asked him to begin with. It made us not want to talk to him anymore.

Quick! Someone start a non-profit selling Pride flags to cash in in the latest conservative dipshit movement.

What community was that? I want to check the mod log to confirm and then possibly block the community. I don’t want to subject myself to a news feed that prevents people from sharing straight facts.

After watching Narcos on Netflix and seeing how bad it is in Mexico, I cant even imagine a practical solution. The narco seeps thru all of society.

I DECLARE BANKRUPTCY!!

Serious question: who was a more progressive POTUS since FDR?

• Maybe LBJ with civil rights, Medicare and Medicaid, but Vietnam.
• Maybe Jimmothy Carter, but he is commonly regarded as a bit unsuccessful as a president

I’m under the impression that it’s pretty evident that Israel is doing a land grab. They’ve been doing it since 1967.

I can’t remember where I’ve seen it, but several high-level American military leaders, like generals and planners, have stated that war with China is inevitable within something like the next ~3-6 years. There was even a leaked internal memo on it. It’s not just them or me talking shit. The US Navy and Marine Corps has even started restructuring and practicing for it. They’ve started switching their doctrines to using smaller spread out units and the Marine Corps even got rid of tanks entirely. There’s also been a political efforts to move chip manufacturing from Taiwan to the continental US and establishing general manufacturing in Mexico to develop economic independence from China.

I just got up, so I’m too lazy to post links, but do an internet search. It seems pretty real.

that will hit the limit of your body’s ability to cool itself. a person could die by just being in that weather long enough.

Anyone know who this dude at 11:26 in the speech and what his stance is? He looks like he’s upset at the speaker.

What a dumb headline. “We’re just thinking about it. We’re also thinking about going to the beach on Sunday. 🫳🤜”

I was in the US Marine Corps and deployed with the front lines for the 2003 Invasion of Iraq. I never once even considered putting my M-16 on burst. I also had a 240G, which we’re taught to fire in little burts, about the time it takes to yell, “Run, fuzzy bunny, run!” Firing full auto is terrible practice. That Rambo style is for movies. Aiming is nearly impossible because of the tendency for the recoil to push the muzzle up, you’re wasting rounds, and you can also overheat the muzzle, potentially melting it to the point of making the firearm inoperable. Additionally, full auto on a magazine-fed firearm means you’ll have to reload in mere seconds, so the only way that would be helpful for maximum death is with one of those drums, which makes the rifle heavy as shit. Basically, full auto is pointless unless you’re using a firearm specifically designed for that, fighting a military force, have logistics to support your amm needs, and are using a “machine gun” starting with at least a M249 SAW. Even then, anything beyond that would likely require a second person to help.

Vigooooooo 👻

I hear war drums

I can see the Multipla being uglier than the Cybertruck because it looks like two differently-sized cars spliced together. However, there is no way I agree the PT Cruiser, Chevy SSR, and Aztec are uglier than the Cybertruck. Look at the Cybertruck again. It looks like a 10 year-old drew a truck on MS Paint using a mouse.
