My dog hates getting brushed and any sort of grooming. We always put this song on when its time just to mess with him

This one is pretty easy. The system is crushing people. Healthcare CEOs have directly chosen to kill people and their loved ones.

Class war has been raging for at least the last 50 years and the working class hasn’t even realized a punch has been thrown.

We have more empty homes than homeless people in the US.

We spend far more on healthcare per person than any other country yet our life expectancy is significantly worse

Every aspect of your existence is monetized by some billionaire or another. Life is hollow and empty and that’s only about to get a lot worse.

Peaceful protest by itself has rarely led to change. Peaceful protest is ALWAYS the better approach though.

Fuel costs certainly offset that FAST

I think most people wouldn't wear out a cassette nearly as quickly as you imagine (besides, overhauling a drive train (new chain, new cassette, new chainrings) can be done with decent parts for $50-70)

I have 3,000 miles on my chainring and about 2,000 miles on my chain and cog these components are still good and probably have another 2,000 miles available easily

Tires do wear out and I spend about $200 a year on those (I could spend 80 if I got cheaper tires)... but I spend between $600-800 every two years for tires on my EV

I've been pretty into riding my bike around my city and working on bikes for the last few years. Most bicycle repairs start at $20 and top out at $100 where as most repair jobs on cars start at $300-500

I don't think there have been any major public allegations other than Not Like Us which is mainly leaning on the issues of a grown man hanging around young teenage girls... WHICH... if we are being fair is not a great look even when everything is above board.

I like the idea of plant based meat.

The issues it has are

  1. Cost

  2. Processing

  3. Market

The first problem is solved with more companies making more meat and competition so we can ignore that as it's inevitable to come down.

Processing though is hard to ignore. 1 pound of ground beef is MORE HEALTHY for you than 1 pound of impossible burger. Just looking at fats and sodiums.

The final problem is market! Who is this for? Do you really think that something marketed as "just like meat in every way" has an appeal to a vegetarian or vegan that has been with their diet for 2+ years?? So meat eaters, are expected to make the LESS healthy and more expensive choice

ME was the worst. DOS based windows 9x in a world with Win2k and XP launched only 1 year later

ME Was DOA even if it had been a "flawless" continuation of 98SE

Either he was buying votes via an Illegal Lottery...

OR

He was rigging a lottery that was NOT an attempt to buy votes.

Each of those things is illegal and he has to have done at least one of them.

For the record he realistically did both buying votes and rigging his lottery.

BUT let's not pretend he will face consequences.

Billionaires following the law of the land is un American /s

It is 5 second scenes with jump cuts. If you pause any particular scene the AI shows itself really fast. (The fast jumps are a good cover though)

In emulation if you are using retroachievements rewinding / save stating gives you a 'lesser' achievement so the precedent is there from the groups that already invented such a thing

I believe that Harris had indicated her policy on Biden would’ve been different but I wasn’t entirely sure how.

She could’ve probably said something like “October 7th WAS a terrorist attack and Israel has a right to defend itself. However, there is a difference between defense and suppression” and likely not pissed any sensible people on any side off too much.

That said; My opinion matters very little as I do t have a meaningful connection to the conflict other than hating to see un necessary suffering.
