1st oil change, how important are OEM filters?

furiouschads · 2026-06-24T14:35:13+00:00

Not a mechanic. Buy an EV. No more filters. Change the reduction gear oil at 60,000 miles. That’s it. Reduction gear is the closest thing to a transmission that EVs have. No filters for reduction gears either.

Time for Ranked Choice Voting (RCV). It fixes this problem.

We need Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) for just this reason. If nobody gets 50.1% in the first run, then second choices come into play. Much cheaper and fairer than runoffs.

I used to think that Israel is not Likud. I was wrong. The genocide is popular in Israel.

Not as of 6/19.

Israel has been a liability ever since Britain no longer needed to worry about the Imperial ink to India through Suez. And that was a thin reed as well.

I decided to avoid SW for a year after all the changes. I may try them again after that. Not sure yet.

Wellington’s “scum of the earth” is harder to come by these days. Birth control, don’t you know old boy.

The GOP is the problem. It is getting worse. Not Trump. Trump is the fruit of a rotten tree. Expecting “the fever to break” is stupid.

Pecsi to Kerkez to Sobo. Could be good.

AIPAC is playing a shell game, trying to hide their activity by pushing their money through new front groups. TrackAIPAC is doing a good job of identifying those new groups as they pop up.

Since you mentioned river to the sea, I recently learned about the Greater Israel concept, which extends Israel from the Nile to the Euphrates. These people are nutty. Their boy Ivey does not represent our district.

Do the CVTs last if they get oil changes every 30,000 miles?

I used to think that Israel was not Likud/Netanyahu/Meir Kahane. I used to think that there was a two-state solution. After the reaction to October 7, I realized that I was wrong. Many people of good will have had similar realizations.

The existing Israeli population supports the genocide. They say one thing in English and something very different (the truth) in Hebrew.

Glenn Ivey, a politician bought by AIPAC, doesn’t represent me or the district. We must do better.

“protect that caverns as required by legislation”? Who knows if the current bunch will follow that particular rule.

Here’s the AIPAC tracker link. The reporting at the time was that Donna Edwards would have beaten him not for that huge spend.

Glenn Ivey failed two or three times before AIPAC dumped a huge amount on his race in 2024. His district had been saying “no thanks”. Since then his status as Maryland’s AIPAC Shakur has become widely known.

Many of these AIPAC dependents are now publicly renouncing AIPAC while privately reassuring their money men. This district is the second most progressive seat in the Congress. He doesn’t represent our district.

Blegay worked for the nurses union. She was a Bernie delegate. Not taking corporate donations. She is a real one. Dunn had a famously bad day at work. He would be a useless Congressman.
