I put wheels on my car which are a cheap copy of a very popular wheel because they were $500 not $2000 and I dont race. Every car meet someone has to comment that Im running “fakes” and try to give me a hard time about it. Yeah, Ive got a mortgage and a kid. Fuck off with your Supreme snapback ass hypebeast bullshit. I’m building the car I can afford.

People are toxic, even communities who preach peace and love as their doctrine have people who will whip out the moral-cock ruler and start shit over who is more peaceful and loving.

Google “Knee sleeves” literally designed for the purpose.

A local zoo has a “taxidermy department” and noteworthy animals are preserved or skinned and the skins sold to friends of the zoo.

Its kept very secret because it would be publicly unpopular. A friends dad has a mountain lion skin because he is a contractor who does a lot of work for the zoo and did a few jobs for them that NEEDED to be done basically for cost when they were suffering some financial troubles. They gave him the pelt as a Xmas present.

This is what bugs me about Tyson the most.

He has almost a meme celebrity status, he is in the hangover,he appears in rap videos, he was on comedy central roasts… and he is a rapist.

Now if he wanted to stick to boxing and boxing related things, where he was an undisputed legend I’d be fine with it. Its not like he has marketable skills beyond that.

Ding Ding Ding.

I lost count of the amount of times I got downvoted to oblivion for saying “He isnt an idiot manchild, he is up to something. Yall are assuming he is playing checkers badly, he is playing chess and whupping your ass”

You dont get to be the richest man in the world by being an absolute fucking idiot.

Also Urdli in the Secrets Of Power trilogy was very much an Australian mage.

Because given what I know about how Native Americans were treated his thoughts were “Well, dont want to rape that…”

Because when its good, and I mean everything is correct… its fucking amazing.

Last time I got Kentucky it was all perfect. The bun was fresh, the lettuce was fresh, just the right amount of mayo, the chicken was hot and crunchy. The chips were hot, fresh and had just too much enough salt and the pepsi was just a shade away from being frozen. It was the best chicken burger I’ve had in recent memory.

Now, this was an isolated incident. Normally I wind up slightly disappointed in something. But when its right…

Its also necessary. Americans made this shitstorm of a litigious society themselves.

They paid for their insurance, why wouldnt they use it and protect themselves?

This makes perfect sense. The city will have insurance for accidents. They bill him, he sues, the city refers it to their insurer and the insurance pays the suit and costs.

It only sounds ridiculous on the surface.

Hate to break it to you, we’re still near the top of the heap.

Honestly him getting re-elected is the first time in my life where I felt the absolute gravity of “Oh, THIS is white privilege” like theres no fuckin nuance to this. I’m straight, white and middle aged. If I say the right things I’ll probably be fine, not much is going to change for me.

I cant say the same for a lot of other people.

This is probably the most showerthought showerthought I have seen in a long time.

I think if he loses theres a good chance that the people behind him will knock him off.

You know what works better than a hero? A martyr.

Agreed, I think the diehards have gotten much louder and the people who saw him as a catalyst for change have gotten a whole lot quieter.

I admit that I very much didnt think it was a good thing when he got elected but I did think “Maybe he will piss off a few people who need pissing off, upset some apple carts and generally upset the status quo and MAYBE be a catalyst for change some of which for the good.” Yeah… it wasnt.

I like the styling too, its got a wicked 80s cyberpunk/Delorian/Tron vibe. I dislike… everything else. I get why a lot of people wouldnt like it, its a love it or hate it deal.

But now that Musk is such a polarising figure and the truck is such a polarising design I think a lot of people cant or wont separate the two.

Its not as bad as the overpriced clothing store “Bazaar Boutique Emporium”

Which is basically all white linen clothing.

Theres a hairdressers near me that is “Bespoke hair artistry” or some other pretentious bullshit.

I sometimes say “I could care less, but not by much”

Getting windmill dunked on by 50 Cent.

I write parody lyrics all the time, they are childish and incredibly vulgar.

Like the time I off the top of my head changed the lyrics to “I want to break free” to “I want to fuck Steve” and serenaded my buddy Steven. I made it through most of the song with it being pretty close.

I said “I need to write that down” and Steve was like “Nah, spontaneously that shit was funny. Writing it down would just make it weird” I was inclined to agree.
