Politicians will never save us. The democrats won’t; the republicans won’t. Anywhere. Ever. Period.
Damn, that’s just tariffble.
I do not idolize a single person. I find that when folks follow someone endlessly for years, they become incapable of recognizing the flaws and issues with anything they say. They’ve allowed themselves to be compromised and their judgment clouded by obsessing over a figure.
Yeah, my dad was a carpenter and always picked a van over a truck any day.
They sell 2 types of covers for the back that solve this. It really depends on what you’re doing. People that are camping or constantly working on projects need that kind of open setup.

The streets are gonna burn if they execute him.
That’s the first question I asked when I saw this.
It’s not any different. There are tons that copy AirPods because they have all the specs and materials. This is merely one of them. The problem is that people are fixated on brands and consumerism nonsense.
It reminds me of how people hated on “defund the police” messaging. I got into an argument with someone that focused on the phrase alone and was completely uninterested in a genuine discussion about what it means. Like what do they expect? An entire novel written on a poster or a tweet to appease them? The point is to kick the conversation off, not spoon-feed you.
Its final form.
Quoting myself from another reply:
I have a friend that has been buying them for years after his actual AirPods died. They get recognized as AirPods on iOS and macOS, and the ANC is the exact same. He’s bought multiple pairs and says they function, look, and feel exactly the same.
Adding on, I’ve had other friends purchase these or different ones from another factory in the same area of China, and they behaved, felt, and functioned identical.

Similarly, if you want AirPods but you don’t want to pay AirPods pricing: https://jenny.airreps.info/
The factories in China have all of the specs and info because they make the actual AirPods, so they sell tons of knockoff versions that are identical.
Americans are a captive audience for US companies to ripoff constantly and for our entire lives. We’re like livestock. Once you start to see how massively overpriced everything has been for years due to greedy western middlemen, it changes your perspective on what to buy and what you’re willing to pay.
I want to build a small website that provides alternative sources for anything people can think of. Maybe categorized into buckets. Tech, clothing, home goods, etc.
Pretty sad state of affairs when our choices are human rights violation 1 or human rights violation 2.
Now we need to figure out a handheld consumer version.
Yikes, don’t ever wank in front of your TV.

Can’t wait to get deported because I didn’t sign the paper that says I support Israel when I go to vote.

I was super bummed when it reached EOL. I wish they would let folks host their own servers for it.

Henry Ruleins
A meme that shows an image of Jordan Peterson on the left, and Henry Rollins on the right. The title at the top reads:
Why listen to glorified motivational speaker Jordan Peterson when you can just listen to Henry Rollins
The left column below Peterson reads:
- Thinks there is a "crisis in masculinity"
- Insists that the "hero's journey" is a long, strenuous process
- Never collaborated with Tool
- Zero scene cred
- Writes self-help books
The right column below Rollins reads:
- Never belittles or puts you down for your inner turmoil
- "Hero time starts. Right. Now."
- Provided a visceral monologue on Tool's debut album
- Well respected in the music scene
- Writes about his travels and interacting with foreign cultures

My current setup
Powerslide Next 100s on unrockered PS Katana frames and PS Spinner 110 wheels. They’re not in the picture but I’ve since added 2nd Skin liners. The stock liners were way too thick.
With all of the X talk today, this was funny to see in my GTA V replay
What’s one of your favorite game soundtracks?
I recently started playing GTAV again and sometimes I’ll get in my car and let the radio stations play while I do house stuff. Favorite stations are the 80s one with Kenny Loggins, and West Coast Classics and Rock Radio.

He’s been doing this ever since we got him and I hope he never stops. Bonus thumbs!
