Edit: The fact that this joke is believable enough to get you guys bent out of shape really goes to show how fucked up things are with the police in this country. Y'all are like "Get the pitchforks, the police didn't shoot the baby this time!". It's hilarious and depressing at the same time. I'll be sure to add the /s next time.

Can we get the first names of officers Perkinson and Becerra? They should be publically shamed for murdering someone for being brown.
Also, never ever ever call the fucking police to check on your loved one! How many times do they have to kill someone during a wellfare check for people to wake the fuck up? ACAB
One of the greatest moments in my life was when I was a young adult and realized I could just ignore someone at my door and leave them standing there. I didn't invite your ass to just show up so fuck right off.
Phone calls too. You better ask via text or something first if you expect me to stop what I'm doing to listen to your bullshit. Voicemail? Oh no, I never completed the setup so you can't leave a message. So sorry!
I'm cool with paying for quality, ad-free service but I feel like they're giving way too little for what they're asking. 300 searches a month? What is this AOL?
A 21-year-old Florida man was sentenced Monday to three and a half years in prison for firebombing a Southern California Planned Parenthood clinic in 2022, federal prosecutors said. ...
I think the backlash they got is terrible but I can also understand why a business wouldn't waste time selling products in a market that doesn't want said products. That's valuable floor space and other resources that could be used for something that will sell there. Target is not the bad guy here.
I recall reading years ago that Siberia has enough methane under its ice to cause a feedback loop that would kill everyone if it escaped. So there's that I guess.
You can stop right there. This relationship is already pretty well doomed without going further. All that other drama is just more nails in the coffin. Walk away.

I don't think you're listening. Small vehicles are not sold in America anymore. When was the last time you saw a new two door car?
Americans are buying larger vehicles because that's the only option.
That's the only option because the fuel economy rules in this country are broken.
This is where I'm at as well. I've accepted that the world is fucked and billions will likely die during my lifetime. But there's nothing I can personally do about it. So I'm just making the best of what life I have.

There is a huge difference between the mainland cities and the places that attract tourists. I enjoy places like Cozumel but I'd never step foot in Mexico City or even Tijuana.

To be fair, that said tactic is used by just about every legal team backed by millions. Just drag shit out forever while the other side bleeds money. It's why small businesses and individuals are fucked when up against the rich. It doesn't matter who's right or wrong in our justice system when big money is involved.
I'm upvoting you for adding to the conversation even though we have different opinions.
Sadly, people don't understand how the moderation system is supposed to work.
I have no idea why you’re being downvoted. The fishing industry is possibly the biggest monster in the world and people are just fine with what they can not see. I used to own a sailboat. I can tell say first hand it can be disgusting out there. Ya’ll need to watch some documentaries. Thousands of marine animals are being slaughtered right now while you’re reading this.
It’s a one time incident. This is like when everyone lost their minds when a single turtle got a straw stuck in its nose. I’m not saying that wasn’t a bad thing. Just like I never said someone shooting a dolphin isn’t horrible.
But why offer a 20K reward for this while completely ignoring the mass slaughter taking place every day? Talk about unproductive.
I feel like they should be doing battery swaps or something. Switching cars isn’t going to drive the industry forward. I’m happy Formula E exists though. It’s a good start.
“It wasn’t that long ago that I was part of the community,” said Gutowski, sitting at a picnic table in a park about a mile from her old house. “But the more I’m out here, the more angry I get. … They’re not trying to make things better for us, or help us have another shelter, or keep us safe — or help us even...
