  1. turned off. we seem to do better when i don’t watch anyway
  2. this is honest to god frightening. hopefully it forces the republican party to purge the Q/trump fuck heads. but who am i kidding?
  3. i’m disgusted anyone would make fun of someone falling especially someone his age i actually give him major props for this. first, most people that age can’t even ride a bike. those that do would probably break something if they fell. people need to realize the other side is still human. you might not like his politics but by all accounts he is a patriot who is doing what the thinks is best for the county. same can’t be said for others.
  4. they really fucked up by not dropping their pants to get Texas / OU + hanger ons a decade or so ago. major powers in the central time zone is the only thing that could have saved them.
  5. i’m going to become legit depressed if this bungling inflation/ economy leads to a new trump / trump lite. especially since he would have most likely handled it even worse. hell, he did.
  6. dumb question. can’t impeach trump, but they impeach fellow congressmen?
  7. refineries have shut down. shell closed one or two in louisiana and lyondell is closing a huge one in houston the the equipment is getting old and outdated. no one wants to spend the money required to update since demand is only going to go down long term. talked to a high up at the lyondellbasell facility recently a number of factors went into play: they don’t have a direct source oil production like the big players (exxon, chevron, etc) so they can only buy the “leftover” crude, which is not only generally shitty, but the grade of oil fluctuates. makes it hard to plan things out. they were banking on keystone XL to change that by supplying low cost crude at a set grade. we know what happened there the refinery itself is very old with out of date equipment. The facility is generally at the end of life and they are not willing to invest in new equipment for two reasons.. lack of long term growth due to the changing market. lack a steady supply of “good” crude (see my earlier keystone comment) ironically they are making more money now than ever. so they plan on riding this one last wave before leveling the facility. the land is very valuable due to being on the port of houston
  8. love it, but the instantaneous travel does bother me. vader to the planet in like 10 mins 3rd sister teleport through tunnel past everyone and on the other spectrom. vader not able to keep track of a slow ass droid dragging old ben about a foot ever 30 seconds.
  9. y’all are dumb. Louisiana is awesome. nice people and fun culture/ traditions. living there would drive me insane, but i’ve never met a Louisianan who was boring.
  10. i thought this was widely known. so not sure why this is making the rounds now (heard it on npr earlier today as well) also not sure why it is a surprise. country paid tribute to not be invaded by stronger power. pretty common thing until relatively recently
  11. deferred maintenance due to supply chain issues and staff shortages. shit is being run way past where it should and breaking. seeing it in the chemical plants and refineries as well
  12. built some cool buildings and inspired some beautiful art. besides that, religion is pretty dumb
  13. they claim 24 mpg, but you know how manufacturers always lie about that shit. To be honest, i picked it over the standard ecoboost due to the built in 7.2 kw generator. don’t trust ercot to keep the lights on. plus it’s quick as shit for a truck. 0-60 5.3 seconds that said, i’ll update y’all in a month or so. i do about 60 to 80 miles a day, so i’ll get a pretty decent idea fast.
  14. getting a hybrid f150 platinum due in next week. somehow talked them into 3.5k off msrp. still in shock.
