The giant ones in the trucks track me up. Keep bitching about gas prices but sure, willingly decrease your mpg so.

I’m a woman w

She may be going to more places but that’s the only one she mentioned specifically.

Is that the church in the salt mine? That’s the only place she’s mentioned so far, but I don’t recall the name or if she even said it, really. She may have just read about it and not known how it was pronounced.

That’s really funny - my very Catholic mom is going to Poland next year with some church group and the priest, lol…I apologize for her in advance!

I’ve always wanted to visit Poland and still hope I can, one day. But no weird Catholic shit!

Don’t make life choices based on the opinion of white supremacists.

Imagine that someone has that job. They make and present that chart in meetings. That person exists and is why we can’t have nice things.

You seem nice. Anyway, a crumple zone is assumed to be designed in such a way that it protects the occupants of the vehicle.

No one said it didn’t “crumple” on impact. The problem is that it doesn’t sufficiently crumple in such a way that it dissipates the energy effectively.

In this case, the vehicle’s occupants are still traveling at a decent rate of speed and the material of the vehicle is thick enough so they could potentially sustain head injuries. Other vehicles do not have a similar concern.

Hope your day gets better. Cheers.

This makes a lot of sense and helps me to make sense of it all. Thank you.

The only surprising thing is that it took this long.

I have a question about this and I hope I’m able to ask it correctly the way it’s sitting in my head.

I know throughout history there have been strongmen who come to power, promise the world, and don’t deliver.

I also know about propaganda and its role in the above scenario.

My question is - if these images are seen by enough people who truly believe what they say - and they’re poor, maybe older, not in a great place overall, etc, and they voted Trump because they believe this…shit….what happens when they don’t deliver?

If they’re expecting homes and help and a magic, simple solution to all of their problems that never delivers, what happens not only to them psychologically, but also what bigger impact will their reactions have on the country as a whole?

In the US, I’m not so optimistic we’ll have that moment given the past 8 or so years. There will never be a realization that the Emperor has no clothes but the help will still never arrive. How long can that be sustained, and what happens when it can’t?

I hope that made sense and I apologize if it doesn’t.

I bet Trump didn’t even ask…Elon just let him do it.
