I wish all people would ditch their cars for trains, subways, trams, buses and bikes.

While it might be great for certain people in certain areas, it’s not even close to possible in many other places or situations. If you live in an even moderately suburban or exurban location…good luck ditching your car. Doubly so for rural areas.

And for a typical family, they will typically need two cars.

This is the way.

Christ.

Seriously, how are any of these actions any different than what Putin would order if he could?

Especially if they fashion some fake trinket to award him at a fake ceremony.

It’d be really hilarious if something like this were to be done to rank best Presidents, Obama - or some other living President - were to actually win , and then re-gift that award to Donvict, and of course the pathetic loser Donvict would accept that prize being re-gifted to him.

It’s more like the title should be “confirms” instead of “feeds”.

A little over twenty years ago I switched. I think it used to be there were many upsides to manual, including better mileage. I think that has since flipped, or at least been largely mooted.

I still preferred manual for driving in snow, but I think even there if you have an automatic that shifts up/down, the advantages are mostly just a placebo, I think.

A gay black man, committing acts of journalism!

Yeah, I guess when you combine the helpful Murc’s Law Media that is there to capture the vibey narrative for the low-info and the people that are paying the least bit of attention, along with the conspiracy theory/Epstein Class media that is there to capture the people on the far margins, I could see how these kinds of numbers happen.

As a for instance, the thing about Biden smelling hair - I still see the right wing talking about that, even right now, as their AG is sitting there and covering up for the Epstein Class. That kind of thing, along with Hunter Biden’s hard drive, oops, I mean “laptop”, and nonsense narratives like Pizzagate/Qanon seemingly has completely captured approximately 30-35% of the country, also known as the Sarah Palin Floor of the population. That set of people has been trained to feel Biden and Obama (and Clinton) were the worst thing to ever happen to America.

From the article it seems they do have vested interests in coal.

Which VPN may I ask? Is it outside one of the Five Eyes countries?

How in the hell does Donvict rank higher than Biden?

Even as he craters this country and the place is tipping into authoritarianism, people still think this asshole is better than Biden?

/facepalm

I wonder how many people fear to give an accurate answer even on a survey?

The idea that the United States/the world should be run by businessmen is one of those ideas that is so pervasive and yet so very dangerous (and stupid). I’ve hated that notion every since I first ran across it.

I cannot tell you how cloying it was to keep hearing the chattering classes praising W as the “CEO President”. Donvict likes the notion, too, which is completely unsurprising for a narcissist that wants to rain down revenge on anyone that criticizes him.

The idea that the President, who should absolutely have to answer to us should be treated like a CEO only naturally has the implication that we all suddenly become at-will employees that report to him, and the country becomes patterned after a top-down corporate hierarchy(corporations are rightfully called private tyrannies).

That is a terrible idea if you have any interest in freedom and autonomy. People should remember they have no freedom and no autonomy within a corporate structure.

I’d like to see them locked up myself.

Came here to say this - the Squeaker of the House. I’ve never seen a man who know so little about so many important topics of the day.

This motherfucker is one of the ones I most want to see in prison. Easily in the top 10.

Just what do the Republicans have on Lindsey? It has to be more than just the fact that he’s gay.

Donvict really is running a crime family.

If this stupid asshole fucks up our awesome voting system (mail-in, thank you very fucking much) in Colorado, he’s going to be even more hated than he is already.

I’m just saying that I seem to remember the cons claiming that Obama was so “divisive” all through both of his terms. If you’d ask them what that actually meant, they really could offer nothing cogent as to what they meant.

Meanwhile characters like Newt and Rush had laid the groundwork in the 90s to really create a lot of polarization.
