Lol wisdom indeed

She must have traded one eye for wisdom.

Oh that's just the surface. First they'll sell off all their equipment to their douchy frat bros, then lease said equipment back at exorbitant rates. Then they'll load the company with debt to pay massive bonuses to themselves. Then they'll blame it on the stewardess.

If you think about it though it all seems fair and just. How dare the hourly wagies want fair pay for honest work!? Peasants just aren't what they used to be. Fucking capitalism is just tedious...

When I first got my last kitty, she disappeared on me. I was frantic. I was canvassing the neighborhood, showing apathetic delivery drivers kitty pics. Just a solid 3 hours of panic. She had burrowed into a load of laundry that just came out of the dryer. Just looking content af in her warm cloths nest. Fuckin cat....

Fair play*

"Penguins are mammals" said to me as an offhand comment by a friend's older brother. I didn't question it till embarrassingly late in life.

"It's ok we (white people) took the land from the Indians because we make better use of it, and can sustain a much larger population on it." Said by my teacher to the third grade class.

"You'll become more conservative as you get older" heard this one quite a bit from people who didn't wanna face facts about the world.

"Global warming is a myth" oh if only that were true. We're so fucked

See first answer. Seriously, they're obviously birds!

It could be. You mean like Wednesday from the adams family? Not the direction I was thinking. But I don't hate it.

A couple of times a century you get the bell-bottoms

All days, just with a Wednesday kinda vibe

I've been a welder. It's a big field with lots of variety. It all mostly sucks. Super hard on the body. Lots of bad fumes and dust.

If you're actually looking to get into it, learn to weld pipe. Best pay and job opportunities.

Season 2 of The Lowdown

A neo noir type thing set in Oklahoma. Really enjoyed season 1, 2 is off to a great start

The best set up I came across was a pump that mounted on your waist, it pumped in filtered air and kept a positive pressure under the mask. I snaked the tube up under my leathers between my shoulders. Wasn't too cumbersome.

I've seen the one you're talking about. I thought it was too much weight to be carrying on my neck all day.

But unless you're prepared to go full hazmat you're getting exposed to foul air.

Lol isn't it just?

Just get me a liter'o'cola or there will be hell to pay!

You know shits getting real when the cops will shoot at a blonde white girl.

Former trucker. If it's hot or cold AF it sucks not having a or heat. If it's a hot day, it's way hotter on blacktop surrounded by hot engines.

It can be a pain to turn it on and off a bunch of times per day, I know it sounds minor, but when you're trying to keep track of a bunch of things, making sure the right cargo comes off or on in the right order in the right way, hitting multiple docks or stops in quick succession. Trying to claim the space you need and trip plan (a lot of people don't realize how difficult it can be to get a truck through a city, especially East Coast cities).

Then you get somewhere and hop out of your truck to check in, thinking it will take 30 seconds. Talk to whomever you may need to, clear obstacles and eyeball the space you need to get your trailer into. You'll run into clueless, apathetic and just all around useless fucks at every corner. The sort of people that make glaciers seem on point. 30 seconds can turn into 30 minutes real quick.

It's a tough gig, and having an army of mercenary profit driven people out there looking to make a buck off the guy delivering literally everything you need to survive that's not air (and sometimes even that too) is kinda bullshit.

Edit: I'm not endorsing excessive idling, just trying to give some perspective on why a driver may fail to turn it off.

And also that a policy that pays anyone to report it is suspect at best. Where are we drawing the line on that? Jaywalking? What about immigration? Who's to say I can't start a company that surveils and informs for profit? It's a slippery damn slope with nothing nice at the bottom. Enforcement should be done with paid public servants, full stop.

I'm blinded with rage by the comma he ended his post with,

Lol that's a good one, I might steal it.

My emotional support boar

That's a shit lesson to take from 33. My takeaway is don't let the brown shirts win. I'm not running from my country with my tail between my legs.

Fascists can fuck off, in fact 70 7 millions just assembled to say just that.

Edit: I didn't think staying in my country of birth and fighting for freedom and decency would be such a hot button issue.

To all of you who felt the need to be condescending I'd just say tighten up and show some backbone. Real disappointing. So you may be shot and sent to a gulag. You wouldn't be the first, probably not the last. Try not to let fear and righteousness dictate your feelings.
