I'm not sure about that but my uncle always said a car should be at least 1/4 full at all times, if you run a car on fumes it's far more likely to have issues with dirt getting into the fuel system or some other issues.

If your fuel filter is working dirt won't be an issue. With fuel pumps being in the gas tank now, they're cooled by gas. They usually need 1/4 of a tank to be optimally cooled

I love how people are basically thanking her for calling them stupid what a world

It is a bad quote when taken out of context and people will likely not check the context. Please don't add to the misinformation

They were hell for me for the first week. After that it was fine but 22 hours a day is a lot. My lower canine teeth didn't want to turn and the attachments didn't want to stay on my crowns so it was interesting.

Of course out of my two brothers and me I'm the only one who had to pay for my own braces I'm the only one who kept up with my retainers. Now my oldest brother has braces again

I don't get why a bunch of 30 yr. old CEmen are weighing in like their take matters. They're not gomna be the target audience of this propaganda lol.

Hopefully the target audience looks up the context and sees it's a nothingburger

When I was at Howard University and we were in college, we were 18 through 24, and you know what we were called? College kids. But when you turn 18 and you're in the system, you are considered an adult, period.

Nice out of context snippet though

Apparently Democrats need to do some major work in swing state cities. I guess I figured this would have been of the first steps, informing swing state city voters what Project 2025 aims to do and encouraging them to tell their family members around the state.

I'm not sure how they could. People have forgotten what Trump did and there are many who believe we were better off four years ago. I base a lot of my predictions off a group of undecided voters in my area. They seem to generally vote the same way the majority of the state does. They liked Trump in 2016, became never Trumpers in 2018 and then stayed that way all the way up until the recent debate. Now they think Trump was a decent president and they're voting for him. Time has really softened the perception

Ok it maybe took me a minute, but I think what he's saying is that people write off Project 2025 as a hoax-like document crafted by the Biden administration to make Republicans look bad. And with Trump so much in denial of knowing what Project 2025 is, that misperception is easier to digest in knowing how people are being misled.

This is the case. I've been flooded with really bad takes on what Project 2025 is all week in a swing state by the demographic most likely to vote. It's been difficult to tell what is true and what isn't. And then to see the same thing on nextdoor from people in my city, which is one of the two blue strongholds in the state is just disheartening. Just feels like the disinformation is winning this election cycle

Holy shit is this infuriating how much misinformation has been able control the collective mindset of America... Please tell me you live in some town out in the middle of nowhere in Arkansas or something. I'm in St. Louis, a blue city with a moderate surrounding county in a rather red leaning state as of lately, and most people I personally talked to in my circles are seeming pretty aware of what Project 2025 is, but it still isn't a common conversation topic off of facebook.

I live in Wisconsin. I've been in a deep red part of the state for a week hearing how they view things and my only connection to my very liberal city has been nextdoor, which is very conservative. Both places have the same opinion. It's been difficult to avoid spiraling even more into despair

After his handling of Israel..not good at all, god forbid if Ukraine is lost.

He didn't handle Israel any different than any other US president would have. It's just how we've handled Israel for the past 70 years

I'm predicting that Trump will lose the popular vote but will win the electoral college. He will barely win states like Wisconsin and them claim he wanted to win like this since it's harder to do

Honestly he's probably going to be forgotten. Most of our presidents have been forgotten by those who aren't historians who study US presidents. If he is remembered it will be because his presidency had the first woman as vice president

If my week with highly educated family members (lowest degree is masters, whereas I only have a bachelors) has taught me anything, it's Teflon Don. Nothing can change their minds about him being the second coming of Jesus. They will follow whatever their fellow church members post (and they are part of a comparatively liberal church)

Not a Trump supporter, but this feels like it's missing a ton of context that would help this make more sense even if it wouldn't make total sense

Expand the supreme court. It's the only option we have.

He doesn't have the votes to confirm any judge. He would need at least one Republican vote to get Manchin to vote to confirm in the name of bipartisanship. No Republican will vote to confirm

If I was a Trump Advisor?

Show up, talk over her constantly, don't let her get any momentum or make any points. Just keep your bullshit rhetoric and project, interrupt, lie lie lie lie lie.

The latter.

Right now the consensus (mostly from people who didn't watch it) is that Trump "won" the first debate and Bidens performance was so bad that's why he ran away in fear of Trump.

Trump doesn't want to risk losing that image by being slapped around.

The thing is, Trump supporters don't care. They're gonna vote Trump either way. But the "They're both as bad as each other" crowd of idiots who could vote either way will see Trump no showing the second debate as being afraid of Harris.

Exactly this. Trump can talk so much that Harris barely gets to be heard and if she does have a moment to respond she can't possibly address all of the arguments. Doesn't even matter if the arguments were good or not. The Gish Gallop works. There is no way to defeat it when talking to a large audience that isn't familiar with the tactic

He will not do a debate.

And his base will not see it as a cowardly move.

"She's not a legitimate candidate! I should be running against Sleepy Joe! The Dems are trying to cheat again! All she'll do it tell nasty lies! NASTY WOMAN!"

And they'll buy it.

And don't forget the questions about her citizenship /s. But really it would be smart of him to debate because no one seems to listen to what he says. Just that he talks a lot and is loud

I am not voting for Trump but I believe he can easily win the audience over (even if he loses the debate) by being louder than her and using the Gish Gallop. Tons of people don't recognize it and tend to notice that the opponent cannot adequately defend against it

Anyone who is voting for Trump for specifically this never voted for Biden to begin with.

Trumps answer had him expressing support for Israel as well. So you have to go through a gymnastics to convince yourself that Trump likes Palestinians.

People forget a lot over time, so it's not hard to imagine why they should cat a protest vote for Trump

Arcanine2009 posted...

Just watched that.. That was really dissapointing, but I'm also not surprised at the bias towards Israel.

I don't know what shocked me more.. Biden sounding like he memorized the lines (I'm sure the questions were given ahead of time), and he seemed really out of it...

Or trump saying he's a "Palestinian. " I didn't think Trump would be so candidly anti-Palestinian. He doesn't care if they were wiped from the face of the Earth.

And there are people who voted for Biden in 2020 who will be voting for Trump this year because of Biden's support for Israel

I usually do canned peas. The added salt makes it a lot better

Wouldn't a non-biased study include more Biden 2020 voters in their sample because Biden got more votes in 2020? Sure you have the electoral college to account for but for popular vote I see no issue

My dream was I couldn't sleep so I occasionally looked at my alarm clock and saw it was 2:05 am and then 3:12 am. I was definitely asleep though since I work up with sore hips from sleeping on my side. One of the few dreams that was really difficult to tell from reality

Like other people have said here, I don't hear him say anything about reinstating forgiven student loan debt. Does anyone have a clip of him actually saying that? I'm not a fan of Trump, but the assertion made by the tweet has nothing to do with what was said in the clip

I was really excited for this game. Now certain people in this topic are making me think that no matter what, they will complain that this game is too woke due to having a female character that can be played

Nothing looks exciting anymore.

Kind of this. Mainstream games have kind of lost imagination. They go with safe ideas. There are plenty of fun indie genres, but those can be difficult to find.

Other than that it's hard to find time to even play games with work and other responsibilities

Does that include taxes or is the price because of all the overpriced addons?

It's a 2025 Toyota Camry XLE (first one that arrived at the dealership) with the premium package, all weather mats, and charging cables. So yes it's in part because of the add-ons. I wanted the premium package but that's about it. Taxes will make it more, but the financed amount isn't all that bad. I'll have it paid off within a year.

At least I can still say no to the deal since I haven't even tried it yet

If the files are too big, complain to DToast until you are allowed to post 25MB photos /s

I get fleeced on Monday to the tune of $41,000 MSRP for a Toyota Camry XLE...

If you don't want to hear shit about racism then don't be racist. My immediate neighbors don't speak English and we don't seem to have any problem communicating even though I don't speak their language either. There are real-time translator apps that can break down language barriers

I'm buying a Toyota this week. They're pretty much trying to follow Tesla's lead regarding how they sell and their price transparency. Even knowing the final out the door price and not paying any markups nor fees other than a relatively small doc fee, and getting a much better trade in value than other dealerships were offering, it still feels like I'm getting a bad deal due to my previous experiences with dealerships.

I am in Wisconsin, which does have quite a few people whose families are from the Netherlands. Most of the time I do feel pretty short though. I'm the tallest male on my dad's side but the shortest on my mother's side. When I'm out in public I'm usually a good 3-4" shorter than most other guys

Paramount+ doesnt have nearly enough content worth their subscription price. And I love South Park. Cant wait for their contract with Matt and Trey to end.

It has all the shows that I used to watch as a kid. That kept my interest for a weekend

Did you signal? They might have assumed you were going straight

I did signal. He flipped me off the moment I started moving into the intersection (but before I started turning).

Reflecting on it more it seems pretty typical behavior of a shirtless sports car driver

Heavy_D_Forever posted...

According to your visual if you did in fact pull up to the intersection before number 4 then it was your turn to go.

Fuck that person.

I was stopped before 1 went through (but they stopped before I did)

The guy seemed to want to fight me. For visual reference, I was 3rd and the guy who thought I was wrong was 4th. 1 and then 2 went before he flipped me off.
