Not as good as just staying on standard time forever but better than flip-flopping all the time

Yeah, as one of the apparent neckbeards/weebs mentioned elsewhere in this thread I’m 100% speaking from experience there.

I’m thinking I may acquire a nice ruana for when I’m driving…

Nuclear war. 80s kid here, so past the nuclear close calls and “duck and cover” of the 60s but the Cold War and nuclear arms race were pretty scary to me.

It’s never gone away and Putin’s current saber-rattling have not helped, but it calmed down in the 1990s and 2000s.

Cars (and seatbelts) are the biggest reason I see. Cloaks:

  • get caught in the door,
  • take up a lot of space,
  • get tangled in seatbelts,
  • limit seatbelt effectiveness by padding the wearer with the excess cloth

They’re great for pedestrians but not so much for motorists, cyclists, and motorcyclists.

Because genocide plus fascism is worse than genocide alone. Is this even a real question or are you just trolling?

Taking a screenshot and cropping it is absolutely trivial on iOS, as long as you know the screenshot button combo.

Yeah but would the headline have mentioned the make in that case?

To be fair, money is a magic coupon too. So they just didn’t pay with the right magic coupon.

I think it’s something about how if you write your name in all caps that counts as a different legal entity because magic words. So business as usual for these folks.
