That’s because the goal isn’t to sell you a car, it’s to saddle you with a $50K debt obligation they get to sell off.

If you don’t give me what I want, I’ll make the American people pay me more to buy your stuff.

OK.

Trump is willing to resort to force and violence to get the things he wants. I wonder why he was friends with Jeffrey Epstien.

Obviously Jississippi.

The US needs Greenland to defend it from Russia and China.

Greenland is in NATO, allowing the US to defend it from Russia and China.

The left is exhausted. Democratic leadership is uninterested in fighting, and the electorate is angry, but has been angry for so long they’re disconnecting to stay sane.

I don’t know. It depends on how you classify informed. I’d bet they, on average, spend more time glued to a “news” source, so they’re being informed, 24/7, just not with truth.

Not really what you’re asking, but Lego: The Hobbit.

My wife and I used to love playing Lego games after a couple drinks. Being a bit drunk makes them very fun.

But with that one, Smaug flies out to go burn Laketown, and the credits roll. Apparently, the 3rd movie did so badly that they decided not to finish the game and just released it as is. It’s missing 1/3 of the game.

Because Maduro was a pariah, same as Gaddafi and Saddam Hussein. Obviously, it’s not about liberating the Venezuelan people. The US isn’t even pretending this time. It’s about oil and getting rich.

If you shoot a rat with a shotgun, yeah, maybe don’t do that, but thanks for killing the rat. If you shoot a dog with a shotgun, that’s pretty monstrous. As long as Trump takes out the worst folks, he’ll get away with it.

Chinese government controls Chinese companies. American companies control American government.

I don’t know, it makes a lot of sense, in an asinine way. Many people are self-centered and incredibly selfish. Of course we all benefit from living in a world where children are happy, fed, cared for, and well adjusted. But for folks without kids, it’s usually indirect, rather than direct benefits, making it harder to quantify.

But, their property taxes that fund schools are easy to quantify, so the selfish get grumpy about it.

It’s like not wanting your tax dollars to fund cancer research, because you don’t have cancer. It makes no sense, until you remember the person talking is a selfish dunce.

Literal Disney prince makes hardtack. Excellent channel.

Some answers here are close.

It depends on what type of person you are.

If you’re the kind of person who has a neat, clean kitchen who does all their dishes after every meal, go cast iron.

If you’re the kind of person who has a messy kitchen and you really only do dishes once or twice a week, go primarily with stainless, a nonstick pan for eggs, and a 10-12 inch cast iron pan for occasional use, like that rib roast.

Guys, I’ve cracked it.

First.

I fully understand that it’s correlation, not causation, but I believe some inanimate objects want to work well, and others want to work poorly. In that same vein, there are people that inanimate objects respect and work well for, and there are people that inanimate objects dislike or enjoy aggravating.

Some kid 50 years from now is going to write a paper on the moral dilemma of calling ICE on a scam center.

I’ve lived in the southern USA almost my whole life. I am accustomed to racism, unfortunately, but Asian racism hits different. It’s wild.

I feel like accidentally commenting there is a Lemmy right of passage. It got me, and continues to almost get me. They generally have good discussion.

There is a difference between giving some a gift you know they don’t like and giving someone a gift that they don’t like. It’s literally the thought that counts, and as someone who has been married a long time, it’s important to place the thought first and the gift a distant second.

If (when) I get another tie for Father’s Day, I won’t necessarily like, want, or need it, but I will still cherish and appreciate it. It’s nice to get things you like, but it’s much nicer to be loved and appreciated.
