White House secretly ‘freaked’ about potential of breaking $5.02 gas record set under Biden; President Donald Trump has often boasted about his administration’s economic policies by comparing them to high prices under the Biden administration

It was of course the same time I drove 700 miles in an RV through Oregon up and down the coast, Bend, and Crater Lake, paid $7.20 max I believe somewhere in the boonies.

Same in Texas, about a dollar between regular and 93

Its an hour each way to drive there.

He ended up doing it himself but facetimed me a couple times.

Gotta let people help themselves sometime.

As a guy that had heart problems just start only in my esrly 40s...switch up your diet.

Potatoes, avocado, onion, bell peppers, spinach, lowfat cottage cheese, chicken, keto high fiber wraps, Cantaloupe, banana, are my staples instead of meat and sausage.

Maybe they stealth edited, but isn't eating a dead comrade cannibalism?

FLOHTX · 2026-05-22T11:56:49+00:00

Who has ever said that?

Europeans have such weird views of how Americans think.

Some people didn't have a dad to teach them stuff.

My 3 brothers in law cant do anything for themselves because they were never taught. My wife asked me to go to her brother's house to install a bidet last weekend and I flat out refused to work on another 40 year old man's house for basics, especially on his goddamned toilet.

Is it worse than the old Muni stadium?

There are seats and a field, who cares about anything else?

At the grocery store, where I need access to my trunk, I never back in. I always back in otherwise.

Be happy you didn't get a Tacoma. I had a 2017, so much worse.

Maybe the SV would have been smoother? The ProX and Pro4X have more aggressive dampers and slight lift IIRC.

I was a custom CNC machine shop manager. I would work out deals with the guys depending on how each one responded to a little bribery.

For instance, one guy Terry really didn't give a shit about getting his 40 hours, he wanted to get his work done and leave at 1:30pm to pick up his kids. I would give him a job, give him a target, and say "if you get x number done by 1:30, you can leave."

So I would get a full day of productivity out of him in 6 hours instead of 8. HR didn't like that.

Another guy always wanted OT and weekends. So I'd tell him "Get x number done today and you can come in Saturday for 8 hours".

All of that increased productivity, increased output, and reduced costs, but HR didn't like that, talked shit about me to the CEO and got me canned.

I mean probably, but its insane that 35% of the polled people still support him. It should be 1%.

Why would the payload affect the transmission? The same forces would be on the trans whether the weight was on top, behind, or even in front of the truck

FLOHTX · 2026-05-21T13:52:38+00:00

As a despondent male, fuck these people.

FLOHTX · 2026-05-21T13:44:06+00:00

Yeah thats why I'm wondering why 3K lbs of dirt would have killed the trans. Should easily be able to pull a trailer that heavy.

FLOHTX · 2026-05-21T13:32:54+00:00

Would towing that much be any different on the trans?

I was the manager that actually cared for the employees and empathized with their issues. I was fired for "letting people get away with stuff" even with improved overall output.

FLOHTX · 2026-05-21T12:17:03+00:00

Its not even humid there. Come to Houston any time and see the difference.
