    US Elections (& Politics) :)

    ...except that's a lie. Nobody is trying to BAN books unilaterally. There are some who rightfully want to not allow children to see material that is not age-appropriate. If you can't see the difference, you're part of the problem.

    Holy Crap

    This same thing happened to my uncle a number of years ago... He was the one who had the full arrest with his foot on the pedal.

    Stupid people deserve their own thread....

    The Democrats will be on it shortly... In an effort to stem the use of illicit drugs, they will soon be putting waiting periods on prescriptions picked up from pharmacies, as well as background checks and banning more than a 30-day supply, because nobody needs 90 days of a medication. These...

    Progressive Liberal Hypocrisy

    Good. Now all corporations, sports, etc. should follow suit. The best "position" to take on this virtue-signalling nonsense is to just not take one. Don't say a thing.

    Progressive Liberal Hypocrisy

    Exactly. The proper normalizing factor is percent of criminals of a certain race, not percent of general population. The same is true for number of injuries caused by cops-- normalize it to the racial makeup of the department. And regarding the latter point, if 49% of injuries were "caused"...

    A man can dream, can't he?

    What I learned in EVOC (emergency vehicle operations) is that deadly force is warranted when a cop is shot at, no matter what the form it comes in. Running down the suspect is a 100% valid tactic.

    What a bunch of idiots, thinking that we are a bunch of idiots. No, inflation is NOT at the lowest level. The rate of change of inflation is at a lower level, but the overall effect of inflation is cumulative.

    Funny / Satire

    It would be nice if they could spell, however... It's "wiener", as in Wien (Vienna) sausage. Pronounced in German, that would be "big fat whiners".

    By today's standards, JFK would be a right-wing conservative. Yes, the left has shifted that far to the left.

    In this case, I view it more as leveling the field between the fuel taxes paid on gasoline and the lack of any taxes paid by electric vehicles. Roads don't repair themselves (nor do states like California, but I digress), and it is a legitimate function of government to collect taxes to pay for...

    bidens incredible transition to electric cars

    Check the news. The unelected nazis at CARB (appointed by the idiot leftists elected in this dump) have now banned diesel train locomotives older than 23 years old, as well as adding a host of other restrictions/regulations. The only glimmer of hope is that this must be approved by the Feds...

    dumping tires

    It's a term meaning "illegal dumping," usually done under cover of night.

    Bernie Sanders is like the crazy uncle that you feel compelled to invite to Thanksgiving dinner, but don't really want there. He's a babbling idiot spewing nonsense.

    The elevators where I work are different... you choose the floor outside the elevator, and the console points you to the one of the three that will be going to your floor. Makes me feel like an idiot when I go into a "regular" elevator these days, since I stand there and don't press a button...

    A local was telling me that a friend of his went to college with her, and said that, without a doubt, she was the smartest person he ever met. I laughed in his face, and asked if "went to college" was code for something, because she's a f-ing moron.

    Cat detected as Bird Codeproject AI

    My cats get labeled as dogs. They have threatened to kill me in my sleep over this. So far, I'm still alive, but a bit sleep-deprived lately.

    For what it's worth, after about a week without receiving SMS alerts on my phone (Xfinity Wireless, more or less the same as Verizon), I started getting the backlog of messages as of last night. As others have done, I have configured pushover notifications and will be paying the $5 for the...
