Triumph

Oh I wasn’t trying to be argumentative with you at all. Just talking.

I bought an old pachislo machine from a garage sale because … I’m not real sure, but I have one of those now.

There’s a reason I used the word “ideally”. While there are absolutely worse prison systems in the world, the US prison system cannot be described as “ideal”.

I mean … yeah. If it’s a thing you must have, then it should not be for profit. Staple foods definitely qualify.

To be perfectly clear, when I say “not for profit” I mean that the costs of plant and equipment, administration, materials, logistics, labor, etc. are all paid for out of revenue - and a small fixed percentage to go into a fund to ward against variations in revenue, so that the business and its employees can continue to provide the public good and earn a living even in lean times.

Necessary public services should not be for profit. Yes, I know that framing prisons as “necessary public services” is a bit weird, but ideally, that’s what it is.

If.

I can diagnose and fix a whole lot of things, probably better than most people. Working on the drivetrain of an RV is an order of magnitude more a pain in the ass than a regular car or truck. Certain parts can be hard to come by on older vehicles. Having the additional pressure of “You have to get this working so you can move before the RV park gets pissed off” makes it worse. And an old RV is likely to have horrible livability without having been recently rehabbed. Brakes - arguably the easiest thing to work on - are even going to more difficult, because they’re going to be big truck brakes.

Older vehicles are not more reliable than newer ones. Don’t get me wrong; I love carburetors and points and drum brakes, but for not having to put a wrench on anything, give me electronic ignition and fuel injection all day long. All those sensors and variable valve timing bits pay you back in fuel economy.

I wonder if it’s related to the reason that he voted to make October 14th a special day for Charlie Kirk.

If it’s a travel trailer, that’s probably easy enough for most people to repair as necessary, and if you can’t, at least you can disconnect your tow vehicle. A proper driving Breaking Bad RV is a whole other story; many more complicated ways that can leave you stranded, and having to get an RV towed is gonna cost you. And if you have an RV that’s reliable enough to not have to worry about that so much … you already have plenty of money and don’t need to live in it.

… in the name of your religion or ethnicity, …

I wonder if they pay you if you support Palestine Inaction.

Por que no los dos

A .30-06 round at 150 yards didn’t exit his body. Right.

You’re not gonna believe this but … I fucking knew it. That is exactly the one that first came to mind, and I am ashamed that I didn’t just blurt it out before.

I’ve had a whole lot of different scotches and whiskies, and Balvenie is hands down the best. Dalwhinnie is another good one along those lines, if you’re looking to compare.

If I was hit by a .30-06 round at 150 yards, why wasn’t there crazy amounts of blood spatter on the mostly white backdrop behind me? Curious.

They’re on those untrackable military planes to Africa, I guarantee it.

Whatever you think about Israel and Palestine, this is wrong. Erasing people in the name of your religion or ethnicity is wrong.

Britain? The place that makes recognizing Palestine a jailable offense?

Investigate yo self

Sounds quite similar to CB radio.

I thought it was a birth control pill box.
