Was that tractor a Tonka? That’s exactly what I had in the 70s, and it was awesome. A lever for the functional backhoe, and a working steering wheel for the front rubber tires.

Than gasoline or diesel? No, they don’t. Wikipedia has a large chart on their article for energy density of various sources. Some things are harder to directly compare with each other, but diesel has 38 MJ/L, with jet fuel/kerosene and gasoline at 36/35. Adding ethanol dilutes the energy output some, while pure ethanol is 24. It’s still a potent source (but with its own costs and effects that need to be included in the net equation). Chemically petroleum simply has more bonds to break and get energy from.

Single payer insurance of any type pulls from a far larger pool than any company could have, lowering the individual cost and allowing a bigger risk coverage. But… what about all those insurance companies (of all types), as well as other industries that rely on the increased costs? How will they survive? /s

I’m sure Republicans will honor their promises. Oh, look at the price of this bridge…

I didn’t fuck the chassis up. That’s all I’m saying.

Dear lord I do not want to hear the music playing.

I mean, they’ll try. The one scene that comes to mind is Superman in handcuffs, then breaking them to prove he’s there of his own free will.

Gondor calls for aid!

Yeah, I’m sure they noticed a difference. /s

Rat anuses would be more appropriate.

That’s a decent application of the technology. It’s still prone to make mistakes, but at least it’s being used for language.

And green is “well, there were some good things about WWII Germany”.

I swear I read the headline and figured this was in the US. Come on, Canada don’t be like us.

I guess mine didn’t get the message to sign up for the sharing.

Of course they would adapt to changing times. Who goes around opening chests anymore?

Now I want to see an evolutionary tree of mimic adaptation.

Rights are actually privileges given by a society. They aren’t a right if they can be taken away. (-Carlin)

It’s clean air and water, not just air/water. Unless you’re in space or on the Moon.

Or children. Or anything where another sentient being is dependent in some way. Maybe not even some house plants.

Andor >>>>>>> rest of Star Wars

Have a new orange. Can attest it’s true. But only part of the time, he’s a sweet boy sometimes too. Dear lord there’s no brains involved, I don’t know where the one cell idea comes from. Zero.

I don’t even have sympathy for people who put themselves in situations in the wild and get attacked, but for an animal that’s been abused for someone’s profit and enjoyment, I’m totally on the animal’s side. Their life is ruined - they probably can’t go back into the wild, and an attack like this will result in their death. So suffer or die? Hell of a way to live.
