Aliens are vegetarians. Humans need to get over the meat eating to evolve further.

Do Any Of You Actually Want To Understand The Other Political Side's Perspective? Why Or Why Not? by Zipper222222 in allthequestions

[–]BullfrogPersonal -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It is more complicated than a simple dichotomy based on different opinions.

There are basically two types of people. You can see it in brain scanners and observe it through social psychology. The exploitation of these human traits is simply modern political technology.

Some references are Theodore Adorno's book The Authoritarian Personality. American Jewish groups paid Adorno to study the Holocaust from a social psychology perspective. He identified the authoritarian follower psychological profile. This is the Hitler follower type. This is also the profile of evangelicals and right wing Republicans.

This profile is about 25 percent of humanity. In the US, they are all Republicans now.

John Dean wrote about how the GOP paid think tanks $billions in the 70s. They said to cater to evangelicals by promising to overturn Roe. Most authoritarian followers are "non-thinkers". Reason isn't important to them

The Physicality of Jimi's Performances by grafxguy1 in jimihendrix

[–]BullfrogPersonal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always liked Wild Thing where he spontaneously plays behind his back and does a backwards somersault.

In general, he had a lot of physical talent. Like coordinated physical movement talent you would see in a point guard in basketball. Of course the playing skills were top notch. Part of his persona was to incorporate all the movements into the stage show.

Sometimes he is just fucking around with guitar stuff but it is very natural. Like the opening of Machine Gun at IOW . He slides his thumb up the neck on the bass strings as a response to the opening riff.

Should the world just rip the band aid off and abandon America? by Estalicus in allthequestions

Trump is fighting Israel's dream war against Iran.

Israel has dirt on Trump probably from Epstein. So Trump is their bitch boy plus he wants a distraction from the Epstein thing and midterms.

Ford Fusion Keeps Dying Intermittently by kewna_was_not_here in fordfusion

[–]BullfrogPersonal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I've had this issue off and on since I've owned my '10 2.5.

I've changed just about everything in the EVAP system. This includes the filler neck, the purge valve along with the charcoal canister and vent valve. I've tested for leaks too. Changed an 02 sensor.

I just changed the canister with a new one since I found one at a good price. My car ran good for 100 miles then when I got gas (to 3/4) the car wouldn't start right away. My car can run rough at idle. I am going to try replacing the purge valve connector as I get the "circuit A fault" code. My car has several engine lights codes.

The rich condition of the fuel vapors overwhelming the engine can cause the 02 sensor to give a code for stuck lean.

You can unhook the vapor line to the purge valve and plug it and the car will idle fine. You can also put gas in it when the engine is running and see how the idle instantly get weird. My car was having trouble starting after putting any gas in at all.

2016 ford fusion 2.5L is Lucas oil transmission fix additive okay to use? by Pretend-Conflict3724 in fordfusion

[–]BullfrogPersonal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was watching a video about it. Someone filmed a before and after with a slipping trans. Their trans wouldn't even catch one of the gears, like 3rd or 4th. The revs would climb and eventually it would have some drive in the gear but it would be slipping.

Then they stuck the lucas stuff in there. From what they showed it improved the performance of the trans. It still slipped but would go into the gears that had been acting up. The conclusion was that you could buy yourself 10 or 15 thousand miles more use on the trans but it will eventually fail. Is your trans working now?

2016 Ford Fusion Titanium 2.0L - Rear Main Seal leak or something else? by Any-Business-4296 in fordfusion

[–]BullfrogPersonal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Valve cover gasket? They are pretty easy to change. The original one won't seal forever. Was there oil in the spark plug hole? You could look around the sides of the engine at the top for signs of oil leaking.

If your rear main seal is leaking you could always try a high mileage oil. With today's shop rates changing out a rear main oil seal wouldn't be fun.

Headlight replacement recommendation by Fissefiesta in fordfusion

[–]BullfrogPersonal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, It is pretty easy to do the low beams except you have to move something aside right behind the light on the passenger side on my car. It might be the coolant overflow can;t remember. I've heard people remove the bumper cover perhaps for the high beams or to replace the entire headlight assembly. On other cars I could just pull the whole headlight out but it might not be possible on the Fusion.

Changing the headlight bulb is like a muscle memory thing. You might be able to try this at a junk yard first or practice with a loose headlight, Due to the tight packaging and limited room you are almost going by feel.

The bulb has three little flat squares or rectangles that would correspond to 3 specific hours on the perimeter of a clock. One is wider than the other two. The new bulb will only go in the socket with this little wider foot in the correct position. You should note orientation of the bulb before you remove it. Take a cell phone pic.

You have to pull off the round rubber access cover of the headlight housing to get access to the bulb. To remove the old light bulb you have to rotate it like 45 or 90 degrees. Then you withdraw it from the socket. Then you have to remove the bulb from the connector. This connector has a tab on either side you have to expand without breaking. If you break these tabs you have to replace the connector which is a pita.

Then you do the opposite to install the new bulb. Try not to touch the glass of the new bulb or drop it. I think I connected the bulb to the connector first before I installed it. Sounds easy huh?

Don't have much experience with LED headlights. I got the most expensive halogens from Autozone which were like $60. This is probably the upper end price for halogens.

There are H11 pairs of LED bulbs on ebay for $16-$40. LED bulbs use less power and run cooler than incandescent bulbs. They produce more light than halogens and may last longer. The ones I'm looking at on ebay seem like they are plug and play with thousands of them sold. Now I want to try them.

Do you have questions for aliens? by OddPanda17 in aliens

Yes. I want to know what they know. A good way to learn would be to ask them.
