One of the later signs of dementia is a belief that one is in a younger age. Where older, stronger memory connections hang on after more recently formed ones have been lost.

You’d be surprised. They’re less common in urban areas, but you can find multiple in any parking lot in more rural areas.
You want a carbureted small block Chevy or Ford.
Nope.
Pre 1990 mechanically fuel injected, naturally aspirated diesels. 7.3 or 6.9 IDI, 6.2 Detroit, most Cummins industrial engines.
Diesel lasts significantly longer in storage (2+ years) than volatile gasoline (6mo max). I’ve even seen some non-mixed diesel last 10+ years when stored right.
But the biggest deal is that compression ignition engines can basically run on literally any vaguely flammable liquid substance. You can make biodiesel from a ton of stuff ranging from oil bearing crops to animal fat. They run way longer on oil changes because they don’t dump as much thin gas into their oil. And there are no real consumables like spark plugs, distributor caps/rotors/points.
In a post-society situation real fossil fuels or petroleum lubricants or parts will not be available.
There’s multiple tiny Mexican restaurants in my town that I 100% know are run by the cartel. Like,I know the manager didn’t buy a $100k dodge Durango hellcat selling burritos and tacos in a farm town.
I don’t fucking care though, the tacos are good.
Here comes the suspiciously narrow EO that provides marginal benefits to traditional manufacturers but a massive, market-changing benefit to Tesla.
Autism and Disability in Nazi Vienna
People with mental and physical disabilities were among the first targets of the Nazi regime. Several years before the Nazis devised a “final solution” for Europe’s Jews, they had already begun sorting their citizens by ability and claiming the Reich had no place for people who were different. Nazi doctors and psychiatrists led the charge, endeavoring to mold certain “autistic” children into productive citizens while sending others to be murdered at Special Children’s Wards throughout the Reich.
Right on fucking schedule!
Man who just ran Titanic into iceberg blames engine room mechanic for delaying the voyage
Feel like I’ve seen this one before
They don’t even subsidize farmers directly, its commodity priced inputs. It mostly goes to the middleman companies that turn everything into processed preserved shit.
I can’t help but wonder how long it will be before Trump deportation flights start landing in Russia instead of El Salvador.
44% approve. Only dropped to 44%? Insanity.
Marshals are an arm of the DoJ. They are compromised and not useful anymore.
Very bold of them to assume that corporations won’t immediately use force to bust these unions and make any participants homeless and unrentable as an example.
Cool, call up the army to start enforcing shit or piss the fuck off
Title had me in the first half not gonna lie
You can’t hardly even buy computer monitors without them anymore either. Every one of the higher end Samsung or LG monitors is starting to include “smart” bullshit.
And guess who canada used to sell oil to? The US… Who typically has a thirst for Canada’s nice heavy crude oils to help balance out the light, sweet crude made by most American oil fields.
Sourcing heavy crude from other suppliers who have to bring it in via tanker, because Chinese buyers can outbid the tarriffed American buyers… Tankers are significantly more expensive than local pipelines, is going to drive the cost of middle distillates up a bunch on top of the tarriffs.
Vulcans befriending humans immediately has the same energy as when the crazy crackhead couple moves in next door and you’re really kind of concerned for them, but make an effort to be nice and socialize with them anyway just so they don’t see you as a threat
And that’s how the humans went from world war to interstellar warp in 100 years when the vulcans took 1500.
Well, you shouldn’t. The FCC wants its fine powers back so it can put any anti-Trump media completely out of business, or at least force them to toe the party line.
