Minus the rape and raping because of being raped.

Well hate speech is free speech too. Schools don’t want to foster that behavior and so they can make and enforce policies to create the learning environment that they want. Also your argument works for bringing guns into schools too. The second amendment is above those school policies too.

Yeah, me knowing model names is more a product of the system we live in rather than my interest in cars. I’m more interested in the mechanics and engineering behind cars than cars themselves. But that could be said for a lot of things.

I’m not into cars, I just read things and start associating their names to the objects. Not fucking hard. You assuming that I like something just because I can read and name it is very ignorant. Or is that just something you do, avoid reading and learning what things are called just because you don’t like them.

Maybe if you weren’t such a condescending asshole you’d realize that we share the same disinterest in “random husks of metal” that are major impacts to global warming and micro plastics.

Maybe pay attention to the world around you. It’s literally readily available information that you can see with your own eyes. I’m not a car guy but I can remember reading things I see. Congratulations, you’re the asshole!

Hur dur, I can read. It’s called walking by parked cars. I read it then and remember it when I’m driving. It’s really not hard. You guys being so ignorant comes off as asshole behavior.

Yeah, sounds like something a draft dodger would say.

And one of them lived after jumping on the grenade.

The 2nd amendment says “a well regulated militia” and we do not have that. So maybe it’s fuck the politicians that keep our guns poorly regulated. That is what is doing more harm than good. The second amendment is designed to allow citizens to defend themselves from government tyranny not to have guns just for shits and giggles.

That would still be processed food. Ultra processed foods have additives like preservatives, coloring, and flavoring that you can’t typically buy off the shelf on their own. Frying is just another way to cook food, doesn’t make it organic or healthy.

The actual term is ultra processed. Anything that requires industrial level machinery to make or industrial ingredients are ultra processed.

This podcast episode goes into great detail about the subject. https://youtu.be/eNOi66OclA4?si=XDtfu-NhhfYLlThx

This doesn’t make much sense. How are they supposed to have probable cause? I don’t know how you can have a “reasonable amount of suspicion” from just utility data. They would then have to do more investigating, which makes me think they’ll just have “civilians” check out or just casually walk by places the utility company suspects.

Probably depends on state. I went to high school in Washington state, just about a decade ago, and we were taught SI units in most science classes. Unit conversion was almost always one of the first lessons we had. Chemistry specifically made us learn sig figs, which is much easier to use with SI units, and made me wish we used them everywhere.

Except that it has been replaced, or is not the preferred unit for trade and commerce. The SI has been the “preferred system of weights and measures for United States trade and commerce” since 1975 according to United States law. Too bad most other Americans are too scared of change to use it everywhere else.

No, it’s not fucking federally owned. ONLY THE 750 MILES IS FEDERALLY OWNED. Again reading comprehension. I never said amtrack has any less motivation to have limited regulations. You are constantly shoving words down my throat that I never said, somehow coming to conclusions that are not even close to what I am saying. I’m just going to block you so I don’t have to deal with the mental capacity of a brick.

Holy fucking shit. The rail companies own the rail. Two federal agencies regulate rail and cargo on rail. The private companies that own the rail have an incentive to keep costs low. They do this by maintaining the rail as cheaply as they can. They also lobby the government to keep regulations relaxed so they don’t have to maintain as much. The government doesn’t care one single bit about the cost to maintain rail, their only incentive is taking the lobby money. Like maybe you should figure out how to connect the dots. And again reading comprehension is not your strong suit.

Ahhh, yes I see. I’m too used to doing that part in my head and just slapped a percent on the end when I didn’t actually do that here. When I saw your last comment I instinctively went that’s like 50% how did they mess that up?

I just can’t even. Like I explain how something like 23,000 miles of rail gets some public funding and you say that’s the entire 160,000 miles of rail. The only federal rail is the rail owned by amtrack, which is 750 miles.

I’m done. You’re too fucking dense, with the reading comprehension of a fucking brick. I literally answered all of that in my last comment.

No. 750/160000 = 0.0047

Yeah, turns out letting companies run critical infrastructure incentivizes them to pay as little as possible to keep it running.
