Hell yeah

It always brightens my day to see a train

Only if you’re posting about Karl InterUrban

I’m going to start Локомотив posting here as a bit

Ugh I dunno if I just noticed it but the spread of “only x small payments!” financing for the smallest purchases can’t be a good sign

I’m okay with owning a car for recreation but only if they’re restricted to designated race tracks and have to be stored at said race tracks, although at that point it might make more sense to form racer clubs that own the cars communally with each enthusiast pitching in for maintenance/other costs

Any bike that has these also has truck nuts

Brics is based while NATO is cringe?

Edit: didn’t see Ireland there, I have no idea then

We cannot allow a research gap!

And the opposite of this, if the menu is plain text and pictures of food that were taken with a digital camera from 2009 then its going to be fantastic

Besides the obvious like surplus labour value being stolen by my boss I’ve been stolen from a couple of times. I had my car broken into once (I accidentally left it unlocked since I had a family emergency to get to), they stole my jacket and some change out of the cup holder. I didn’t really care since I had more tragic matters to deal with at the time and if they needed to steal my jacket they needed it more than me. I was/am lucky enough to have a spare so I really didn’t think much about it. They did leave a half carton of coffee creamer behind though, I was a little confused about that

Funny, because as I understand it the idea that property can be assumed guilty until proven innocent is already enshrined in American law under civil asset forfeiture or whatever it’s called when cops can legally rob you

Edit: just read this took place in kkklanada, disregard me

But if we don’t build new nukes we might not be able to end life as we know it! What kind of world would it be without the threat of atomic hellfire backing American foreign policy‽ The president must be able to move the doomsday clock closer to midnight even as he can’t draw it!

Shit ok I do really need to get back on that horse after falling into a depressive episode. I’m working late but tomorrow I’ll get back into it

All Whalers Are Bastards. Idgaf if it’s their “way of life” and they’ve “done it for hundreds of years”. N*rdics love murdering whales and claiming heritage

Either the worsening wildfire smoke blankets (do these have a name aside from just saying its smoky af?), one of the heat domes from recent years, or one of the bouts of terrible snow storms/deep freezes

The pointless pier that doesn’t solve a problem caused by Isntreal doesn’t work?

Makes me really thankful I was raised with christianity that was more in line with this thinking than most strains of christianity. Shit like prosperity gospel is unironic heresy

Oh absolutely. I can’t imagine how many people were buried under collapsed buildings or just blown to smithereens.

Also a tangent but it made me think of how back in October the CBC was publishing a graph of Palestinian deaths vs Israeli deaths for the first few weeks, then they suddenly stopped including the graph when Palestinian deaths rose to 3 or 4 times the Israeli deaths.

Thank you, life is a fuck sometimes but I take inspiration from the Marxist philosophers in Chumbawamba and their 1997 work Tubthumping

I get knocked down, but I get up again
You’re never going to keep me down

I’ll be ok so long as I keep getting back up

Hell yea, that’s the plan! Thanks for the encouragement, I think posting here has really made a difference in my commitment this time around!
