This fucks me off sooooooooo much; in NZ there are a lot of (a fuck of a lot) of roads that don’t have overtaking zones for a long way.
Getting an opportunity to overtake the slow prick you have been following for 20 minutes, just to have them speed up…forcing me to go faster than I’m comfortable with, then being in front and have them sitting on your arse for the next 10km, even though you are going faster than before you overtook them…FUCK OFF!!!
This is the only correct answer
And socks…
That is exactly the same for your kids, it is not until their world expands a bit when they are 3-5YO; before that you are literally everything to them.
Another take:
The happy rider, is a conspiracy theory enjoyer. Happy in the “knowledge” that someone (anyone) is at the controls of the world, it gives comfort in a perverse way. Even though they know that the “controllers” are doing bad things.
The sad rider, is a realist. Can see that they are stuck on a trolley that is currently plowing through people, their personal actions mean nothing in the aggregate of all other actions in the world. They saw that the person at the leaver chose to keep themselves pure, rather than reduce the suffering in the world and taint themselves in the process.
Even though it is an Australian movie The Castle is pretty good
You have to remember these are just simple farmers.
These are people of the land.
The common clay of the new west.

I have been unduly interested in US politics since 2016.
The last Trump presidency emboldened crazies and the right wing here in NZ. Our current government is acting far more right wing than any in the past 30 years. 30 years ago, there were other reasons for the moves that were made…this time it seems to be because FUCK YOU if you are not already rich.
I really wish that US politics wasn’t so important for the rest of the world…but it really is. It sucks!
If Trump wins again, then I see a further strengthening of the global right. As it is, it is going to take a generation to reverse some of the issues currently being created.
There was a really big popular movie last year, I think it was called “The Barbie Movie”
That is Donald Glover, singer and comedian…they are the same person
That doesn’t make much sense.
How, specifically, would he be destroyed. He’s literally the most wealthy person in the world (sometimes second). What does Tucker think that Harris (the US govt) have on Musk…that they wouldn’t have already used?
If he is such a giant criminal; why would the government not already be prosecuting this case?
Stupid dates…initial thought was 11th of June…
Well if it makes you feel better (probably not); the right wing government here is tanking the economy…for reasons.
It seems to be hell bent on giving tax cuts to the already wealthy; but usually when they have done this in the past, the kept the rest of the economy relatively stable. But this time it is one terrible decision after another, and rather then the “soft landing” we were on target for when they were elected, is looking like a full recession that didn’t need to happen.
How would that make him a non-billionare?
He paid $44B for Twitter, even if it completely failed and he could realize no value from any of the assets. $44B is a small portion of his wealth.
You could have most people in a relatively small area with the rest for farming.
There would be little need for the equivalent of roads, almost all travel would be walk or bike. The longest distance between two points is less than 34km. If the main settlement is in a ring around the middle of the cylinder, it is less than 17km to any point.
If we can do B, A doesn’t provide many benefits.
A 1km diameter, 30km cylinder would provide enough area to feed ~140k people. 95km^2 of space.
That is assuming no imported food etc, based on 7000m^2 per person which is almost 2 acres each.
140k people is a small city.
While that is an interesting take, it is possible to do both!
Moldering: “to crumble into dust, to rot”
All the definitions of molding I can find, are about shaping something.
Literally nothing.
Give him a high five and tell him to keep doing what he is doing. Since we invent the time machine, I wouldn’t want to fuck that up. Really I wouldn’t even visit.
I would however be expecting a visit from my future self, to get the details on how to solve global warming and a bunch of other issues.
Unfortunately a union after the fact does nothing to help the workers.
Unions are great for ensuring that the profit from their labour; is fairly distributed.
If the company is unprofitable; forming a union to squeeze blood from a stone is not helpful. It will just hasten the demise. These tariffs, as others have pointed out are probably making their fixed term contracts into money losers…We don’t have all the data, but it is quite likely.
And from a personal point of view, smaller companies tend to care more than big ones…I’ve worked in both. Being 1 of 5 is great, being 1 of 15,000 not so much.
