My family is certainly lib, but i can put forward critical topics like "the Washington Post carries weight for political opinions barely of the left of Hitler because it is manipulated by a megalomanical billionaire" and get a positive response. They're really just awful when it comes to US foreign policy. In a vacuum, they're not prejudice, but any mention of Palestinians and suddenly the situation is "complicated" agony.

I forgot who said it here, but it was something along the lines of "they can never condemn the root causes of school shootings because they fundamentally agree with them".

I had a shitbox with a piece of pipe I welded on after the exhaust fell off once (it was fully legal and passed state inspection). I got pulled for driving the speed limit and the cop told me I was breaking noise ordinance. I ask which ordinance and all they did was fume at me that they can't "name it off the top of their head". I'm sure the cop never pulled over someone in a giant diesel truck or a 100k sports car for making noise.

Cars get hot and break in the summer all of the time, but just WAIT until these things see their first winter. Salt, potholes, snow, ice, and cold.

Bones

The first 3-4 seasons are really good. Lots of sets, lots of live action, lots of really good practical effects, and based pretty well in real(ish) science. Season 1 in particular has a ton of Bones beating people up which i personally love and wish theyd kept throughout the series. It's a Bush era show aired on Fox, so there's cop worship and "gotta defend the homeland" brainworms, but I like that the message universally is that the cops are too dumb to solve crimes and they need the smart people in a lab to figure it out for them.

Show drops off immensely after season 4. The stakes feel lower, the writing isn't as witty, they got a toyota sponsorship so once an episode a character will all but straight up look in the camera and say "but a toyota you pathetic worm". Less on location shots, more CGI. Just disappointing after seeing what they could do. It was probably the only network TV crime drama I liked.

That's been a conservative talking point for years. That if it weren't for [insert generic bad person here] you'd have a million dollars and a boat and 6 houses.

I'm amazed how many people still fall into it.

As far as I know there's no added features since the musk takeover. Paying for a blue check doesn't count as a feature.
