GOP readies fight against new fuel economy standards

They are worried about it adding cost to the car? That's hilarious. Just think of all the money you'll save in gas over the course of ownership. It'll be cheaper in the long run.

This has nothing to do with anything rather than the GOP just automatically putting something down that is for the good because it doesn't make big oil money, and of course the left supports it.

People of Lemmy who have either "reinvented themselves" or gone through a mid/quarter-life crisis, where did you start off and where did you end up?

I went from an in debt jobless alcoholic that really did not want to live, to being pretty much debt free (car loan) and having a six figure job that I'm really doing well in.

The turning point was meeting my best friend/soul mate and not accepting who I had turned into. I got a job and really worked my ass off to catch up, quit drinking, then quit smoking, and then things just started turning around. I'd really like to say it was from all the hard work, and maybe it was, but I can't help but feel I just got lucky.

Hawaii cannot ban guns on beaches, US judge rules

My dad said the same thing. He carried a 357 on him. A man, he wasn't scared.. Well, that's what he said, but in the end he was a racist baby that was afraid a poc was going to car jack him in his fucking chevy equinox. I don't need a gun to defend myself, it's getting there though with cult45, that's a scary bunch of halfwits.

After $700 Million U.S. Bailout, Trucking Firm Is Shutting Down

That's boomer talk there. Always worried about everyone else rather than themselves. "you shouldn't have a good life because I worked my ass of for 6 hours a day in a factory job that afforded me a nice a house and two car payments with money to spare on steak everyday. The same job now that you'd need a roommate to live in a one bedroom apartment and ride a bike to work while eating shit food. Get over yourself.
