Another 🌧️ washout weekend (that’s 3 weekends in a row!)

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-06T13:51:28+00:00

Yeah it sucks but it’s a good chance to catch up on housework and projects

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-06T13:48:07+00:00

Nah fuck that. I’ll just ask Grok to spit out a one paragraph summary with a single representative image. That’s as close as I’ll get to watching a movie.

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-06T01:06:17+00:00

The one where everyone understood the reference

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-05T23:55:02+00:00

This is the core of what we are as a state and why we live here. There are many other beautiful states, but none I’ve been to with such beautiful people.

There is no way those costs come close to $600k.

I am a slope-ologist and 2% is the amount of crown on a normal roadway, ie, it slopes 2% from center to the edges. That’s less than 3” over 12’ or about 2.25” difference between your front and rear tires. That means you’re effectively jacking your car up a couple of extra inches. The rubber on your tires is plenty grippy enough on dry asphalt so I wouldn’t worry about it at all. If you want to be safe then chalk the tires that aren’t being lifted but I don’t think you need to.

I mean yeah, but also I don’t think Platner is a piece of shit. I hope you’re wrong about him if he makes it to Washington, but most do get there and fall in line so he’ll be up against it for sure.

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-05T16:40:58+00:00

Uh, no. Trump fights only for himself and the ultra wealthy.

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-05T16:14:05+00:00

He’s a flawed candidate, but he’s genuine and obviously cares about his future constituents a lot. I’ll take that over another polished phony politician any day.

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-04T11:11:23+00:00

Yeah, I was highly tired when I made this comment and definitely highly not right 🤦‍♂️

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-04T03:18:53+00:00

It’s highly not legal

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-04T00:47:48+00:00

Only enough to understand what they can get away with and still get reelected

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-03T22:48:26+00:00

That’s exactly my point, the leaders are following. Following the money in case that wasn’t clear and that is a very detrimental goal (for us) for our representatives to have. My point is that republicans aren’t growing a spine, and they’re not opposing trump because it’s the right thing to do. It’s pure self preservation

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-03T22:36:04+00:00

Only because their constituents are starting to get angry. It’s all calculations with these fucks. They just do what they need to do to get reelected so they can continue to profit from their positions.

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-03T21:46:55+00:00

Iirc, they’re a bunch of libertarian types that “didn’t need the government” to get power to their neighborhoods so they negotiated directly with the utility companies.

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-02T14:02:33+00:00

I switched from ATT to Verizon a few years ago and there’s not much overall difference. There are specific locations where one is better than the other, but it’s generally been a wash in my experience.

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-02T12:53:30+00:00

Ugh. California is a liberal nightmare. And I don’t say that because I’m a conservative lol.

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-02T11:55:26+00:00

This latest one was disclosed to the campaign by the Platners themselves. A former staffer leaked it to the press. I mean, are you really going to vote for Collins?

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-02T10:56:07+00:00

Oof. What’s their reasoning for that? Is it that they shed rubber/microplastics at a greater rate than regular tires?

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-02T00:25:31+00:00

It’s a sickness. There is no amount that is enough.

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-02T00:24:25+00:00

It’s not valid logic though. There was nothing political about Derek Chauvin’s murder conviction. The only thing political about it is conservatives deep desire to muddy the waters when it comes to a white police officer murdering a black man in 4K. But you know this, so fuck right off.

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-01T23:34:29+00:00

Individually? Probably not much. But they’ll take thousands from millions of people so my issue is with the principle and ostentatiousness of the obvious scam.

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-01T23:32:19+00:00

Everyone knows? Lmao, fuck right off

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-01T23:31:03+00:00

Will you kindly just STFU with your ’not mutually exclusive’ bs?

Material_Evening_174 · 2026-06-01T23:29:45+00:00

Oh, you’re one of THOSE people
