It's not clear at all that that's what happened. It is completely plausible that someone would shoot a firearm at a candidate in a hotly contested presidential election. Let wait for evidence to roll in yeah?

You're right. Wouldn't surprise me one bit. But I still hold all parties to a standard of honest discourse.

At what point does it become prudent to actually add brakes to the trailer like a truck would have? 300kgs (plus trailer, rider, etc) is a lot of weight for two bike wheels to stop.

I wonder what that would look like from a bike builders perspective.

Where can this 10 hour midwest emo Playlist be found?

I can't speak for all of them, but the I5 border station near the Oregon border hasn't even been manned in several years. This gal is so full of shit.

If someone made half a million a year I'd say they were rich... half a million in total assets would just mean you own a home and might have something saved for retirement.

I'm not saying that it's poor, and I know that there's a good chunk of America that's "worth" less than like 10k, and probably a good number of people who are in the negative, but half a million isn't fabulously rich.

Half a million is within reach for people who didn't start out dirt poor, got an education, and a professional gig. I say this as someone who would be worth less than 10k if I didn't inherit my home. A lot of people's Net Worth Includes things that they can essentially never turn into actual money, but it still acts as a money saving asset.

Okay but for real, they have actually produced music together. There's an album that Virgo Mortensen produced with this weird fucker called buckethead, who just wears a KFC bucket on his head, and a white mask, and just.... is really good at guitar. There are a few appearances of frodo, merry, and Pippin in that album. No Sam tho.... :( The music isnt really my speed, but I can definitely respect it.

First, check your oil and coolant levels. Only when you're sure it's not going to damage itself further by running without fluids, run it in neutral and Rev it up to the engine speed that make it make funny noises and try to isolate what's making noise.

I don't think your radiator is making noise. If the noise is coming from the radiator, it's the fan. Otherwise, I would suspect that something in the engines top end isn't being lubricated properly (if I'm imagining the right kind of noise).

Congress just confirmed a guy that's gonna take away their power to act as a check on the executive?

The flag is just an object. The only ones bound to treat it with respect by any laws are those who work for the government. the flag code does not apply to civilians. The flag should be treated with the same respect that our government treats us with.

Someone who just wants someone who is easy to manipulate and control. Some high school grads can be incredibly brilliant in technical fields, but what's much less likely is to be ethically experienced and world-wise.

I live in a fairly blue state which tends to lean into highlighting the atrocities of the south during the Civil War (and all other eras to be frank) and I never learned about John brown until after high school

Depends on the round. A lot of factors come into play on gunshot wounds, including velocity, mass, resistance, angle. There is even some possibility that the round just barely missed, but the displacement of air is actually what broke skin.

I definitely did growing up in elementary school. Every morning, during the school wide announcements, the principle or whoever was talking on the PA system would recite the pledge and students were pretty much expected to stand and put one hand on their chest and at least listen if not recite it.

It seemed to taper off in my middle school years, and basically only ever happened at football games once I was in high-school.

This is all in a fairly blue area of a generally pretty blue state.

I get that you probably didn't mean much by it but don't let if be "a balm to your soul" let it inspire you to action and speaking up against this regime.

In a win for unionizing sex work (albeit in a different form than prostitution), a group of strippers in a Portland Oregon strip club have unionized!

I checked out phyphox and it's so cool. Gonna show this to my wife who is a high school science teacher. Young students love running experiments like these. When you give a curious mind a tool to measure the world with, and set them loose, good things happen. Thanks!

Oh and the album is called "Pandemoniumfromamerica"

Wow. What a throwback. He ranted about those movie titles on harmontown how many years ago? That had to have been close to a decade ago.

There's an area in the cascade range (western US, specifically oregon) that is a giant field of knapped obsidian, that was used as a training ground for young knappers, as well as a trading ground to trade knapped obsidian that has been found all over the western US. Not just miles, but many many miles. I'll see if I can go find a link.
