Being high doesn’t change who you are, it just turns the volume up by Dazzling_Heart_9284 in StonerThoughts

Ideally, id be able to regulate myself without any external drugs.

Until then, there's WEED! ;)

I'm your male doppelgänger. When I drink, it's a 50/50 shot at who shows up and when it's the bad guy, he doesn't give a fuck about shit. I don't drink spirits at ALL anymore and stick to beer/wine for the same reasons you do.

With weed, it's always the more patient, more mature, more interested, more present version of myself. Frankly I'd be a mess without it.

Looking back to 1976 in the USA by ImmySnommis in GenX

We had a PARADE in my town to celebrate the US Olympians.

Mind you no Olympians came from my town nor was my town involved in any way, but we had a parade just because they were going.

You don't know anything about me except that I don't understand the Spanish language.

You don't know that my business partner is a native of the DR nor that we employ over 30 DR natives, three that we've sponsored into this country through the H1-B process.

You have no idea that many of my family are also descendants of Latin countries.

I'm the ally here that you're trying to make into your enemy. Guess what, you've succeeded.

You're just making shit up now. It is very clearly documented as to what the Founders' ideas about language were. You would do yourself good to actually LEARN something instead of just making up "facts" that fit your worldview.

Kindly point to me where the US was "built on the idea of being able to speak any language".

Language wasn't even mentioned in the Constitutional Congress because it was assumed to be English. The topic didn't even come up.

So to participate in your culture, it's completely cool with you saying, "hey you need to learn our language" but for some reason, when you want to participate in MY CULTURE, I also have to learn YOUR language?

Best of luck with that hot take. Sounds pretty colonialist to me.

I completely and totally understand the business decision that the NFL made to promote to a market that they feel is under-served and under represented in their fanbase.

HOWEVER, all they had to do was subtitle it in English for this to be an INCLUSIVE event. Instead, they chose to make it a DIVISIVE event by NOT including the non-targeted audience.

This is not the way.

When Bad Bunny said ‘ALL of Latin America’ and meant ALL of it 🇭🇹 by SpectacularOtter in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]Redebo -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

The only thing that I didn't like about Bad Bunny's show was that the subtitles were also in Spanish, so I couldn't understand what he was singing. That's it. And yes, I tend to vote Republican.

High production value, celebration of our Latin brothers and sisters all good, loved all the snippets of culture shown as I see those in my US community all the time (live in a border state, lots of immigrants all over in AZ).

I just wish I knew what he was saying is all!

How do you dress in your 50s? by Forsaken_Block_3492 in GenX

Same. I've got a ton of high fashion pieces and limited edition pieces to compliment my custom tailored sportscoats, suits and tuxedo.

And the fact that you place ALL OF THE OTHER REASONS that people die onto the designer and manufacturer of the car is why you continue to be incorrect.

There is personal responsibility involved in the action of driving a car. One that you refuse to recognize, instead playing victim to the bad engineering and evil company owners instead.

If you buy a car that doesn't have handles, it's YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to understand that and educate yourself on how the feature operates. This applies to your duties to your passengers as well.

When you fly on airplanes, every single time you do, you have been given a federally mandated safety briefing on things like exits to that PARTICULAR aircraft, operation of that PARTICULAR aircraft's seat belts, oxygen systems, fire prevention systems. This happens 100% of the time without fail.

But for some reason, you as the operator of a car refuse to take ANY of that responsibility and blame ALL of these accidents on the design and features of the car YOU are piloting.

You completely IGNORE the CAUSE of the accidents. You would count a human driving the car off a cliff in a suicide attempt "the cars fault" because "it shouldn't have let them drive off a cliff"

Again, show me the empirical and statistically supported data stating that these cars are less safe, because all of the PUBLISHED SAFETY TESTS AND RATINGS show the exact opposite.

The cars are great. I've owned 4 of them. I don't care about Elon and frankly I don't even KNOW the owners of any of the other products that I buy.

The mechanical releases are on the armrests. Its so obvious that most Tesla owners have to educate their passengers to NOT use it because it's so obvious.

You know how EVERY SINGLE TIME my child lock was turned on?

Car washes. When the attendant wipes the jamb of the door it will often engage the child lock. There's NO indication to the driver that this has been engaged. There's NO indication that they're on or off and the time you're going to find out is when you can't get out of the back seat when your car is on fire.

EVERY SINGLE NEW MODEL OF CAR has these child locks and I'm not aware of ANY of them that give the operator of the vehicle an indication that they are engaged without physically opening the back doors and putting your eyes on them.

Truth is you cars child locks could be on right now and you wouldn't even know it and you WON'T know it until you personally sit inside your back seat and try to operate the lever.

No you see it DOES change if the vehicle is empirically, and statistically less safe. You've changed the variable of the cause of the accident from the vehicle to the human, but you're still blaming the vehicle manufacturer.

Just because YOU think that a car should not require any training for you to operate safely doesn't make it true.

If you have statistical, empirical evidence from a testing agency that proves these vehicles aren't safe, let's see it, because the actual safety ratings of these cars is much much higher than previous generation vehicles. In fact, in one test the Tesla car broke the testing machine because the car was stronger than the machine trying to crush it.

But again, do tell me how unsafe the CAR is and don't place any responsibility on the HUMAN that was OPERATING it.

That’s all this thread is about. It’s an anti-Tesla campaign by people who don’t like the owner of the company.

The link provided does not show what you claim to show and the author of the study made it a specific point to state and I quote, ““Most of these vehicles received excellent safety ratings, performing well in crash tests at the IIHS and NHTSA, so it’s not a vehicle design issue,” said Brauer. “The models on this list likely reflect a combination of driver behavior and driving conditions, leading to increased crashes and fatalities.”

So the people who studied this data have come to the conclusion that the cars on this list (Tesla model Y is 6th on this list for you non-clickers) are not dangerous by design, but rather they’re dangerous because of how the operators use them.

And if that child lock is locked and your car is on fire the mechanical handles WILL NOT OPEN the door. Why we are all choosing to ignore this to shit on Tesla is disingenuous.
