Does your situation not allow a plugin ev? You don’t need to rely on a charging station. There’s a good video about people’s “range anxiety” and breaks down why home charging is adequate for nearly everyone

So they’d go the MAD route?

My sibling and their friend group have gotten into Japanese horse racing because of the game and now are following the irl horses’ careers

Doesn’t it?? It’s adorable and definitely conveys my feelings at times

Glad I could straighten out the confusion

Well. I am on Android. I’m using the Summit lemmy app

But the emoji is great and I love it

It’s this guy:

🫪 omg I didn’t realize that was an official emoji

Haha thanks for using it. I’ll be inflicting it upon everyone now

That’s awesome; I like the descriptor! They are made by boiling the dough briefly then baking

I might have to use that from now on. What’s your language if you wouldn’t mind sharing?

When pizza’s on a bagel, you can eat pizza anytime!

Thank you for writing that out. I never understood the beginning of that 2nd part and it’s plagued me for… decades really. So now I can sing that shit in full, and not fill in “pizza during crack time” because I knew that wasn’t right

Holy shit, someone who knows psychostick!! 🤘

Could you address the booping context?

Hey I’ll use this comment; I totally wondered if it was a reference to CBB but there wasn’t really a chance to ask without derailing

It’s close enough to the gag that I caught it. You did well

Are the two events related?

Damn really? I was just thinking about it the other day and thought they were all gone. By Macy’s, do you mean a standalone store? Or do they have a small section in a mall store?

There was also that one where he rhymed “things” with “things”

Time to have a rewatch

My partner showed me this a couple years ago. Now, we’ll be talking or I have a thought and the conclusion is “America” to which the follow-up is “want to put it on?”

It hits me harder each time I watch it especially how things have further eroded since then

Edit: I was curious and checked out the comments. They were surprisingly wholesome but I didn’t scroll too far. However one sent me down a bit of a rabbit hole and I found something that made me do a double take:

The text from that image reads

THE TWO PLATFORMS

Every RADICAL in Congress VOTED for NEGRO SUFFRAGE. Every RADICAL in the Pennsylvania Senate VOTED for NEGRO SUFFRAGE. STEVENS, FORNEY & CAMERON are for NEGRO SUFFRAGE; they are all Candidates for the UNITED STATES SENATE. NO RADICAL NEWSPAPER OPPOSES NEGRO SUFFRAGE GEARY said in a Speech, at Barrisburg, 11th of Angust, 1866-“THERE CAN BE NO POSSIBLE OBJECTION TO NEGRO SUFFRAGE”

It’s the writing style. If that is the type of material that one reads in their formative years it makes sense that it’s emerging again in the twilight years

Ps. I’m sorry I spent so much time on this it just struck me and I had to explore. Made me sick at some points. To be clear, I support everyone’s right to vote but the above quoted message was demonizing that sentiment. Also to be clear, Geary was a white man and won that election

I had the absolute fortune to make my way through there at the end of last year. It was so bizarre to me that for the most part people are left alone to follow the rules with no oversight

And for the most part I saw everyone behaving well and not doing anything stupid; except the group of people trying to take pictures of a bison who was clearly unhappy about how close they were getting. He was grazing and would walk away a couple steps and they would follow. The boi was swishing his tail and showing what I saw were “leave me the fuck alone” signs and I had to at least shout to the people to leave him alone and they were fucking idiots. I was HOPING that they got charged and had some sense knocked into them

My partner and I had had discussions previously about what we’d do if something like that was about to happen and the kiddo in the car. If it’s just us adults then we’ll stay and watch the carnage but we’ll take off if they’re with us

It’s the same sentiment with The Onion and Black Mirror. Having to take a step back because reality is too absurd

Bigger yes, dumber no. It’s like saying dogs are dumber than cats. They’re just different and “smart” at different things. I don’t see packs of tracking cats going out on search and rescue missions

Awww I loved that! The horse was weirded out but mostly ok. His body language was calm and he followed her when she walked away, which is a sign it respects you and sees you as someone to trust and follow
