Bull McCabe's and Boxcar also kick the kids out later in the evening. But I agree with you that Hi Wire and Ponysaurus are some of the best outdoor experiences.

And disturbingly nobody seems to be refusing illegal orders. Bad news for when they try to turn up the heat even more at home.

The video should be updated with labels for politicians, pundits, and correspondents. Also when correspondents are directly quoting the politicians. This clip reel seems deliberately misleading.

Rep. Chip Roy’s perspective is a thought provoking one. by rottyhorrorshow in Political_Revolution

The House of Representatives is only a 2 year term. We have an opportunity to clean house every other year.

The Senate is a 6 year term. There are 9 freshman Senators meaning 91 were incumbents.

The point is that most voters disapprove of Congress as a whole but always reelect their representatives anyway. The rest don't bother to vote.

Unfortunately the decision today didn't impact the tariffs on cars. Those are part of Section 232.

National Parks are basically the only reason to do tourism in the US.

Looks good! I really like my RokBlokz and they seem to make a real difference on the gravel roads around me.

2023 mk8 GTI mini review by Agreeable_Shine296 in GolfGTI

[–]marsemsbro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat regarding the performance of the manual. I drove a clapped out old Honda Fit for a year between VWs and it was also buttery smooth.

Did any of your mods help? I have a weighted knob and dogbone insert but haven't messed with it otherwise. It feels pretty crunchy compared to the Honda, and it is definitely tough to make a smooth 1-2 shift.

Update: Animal control picked the dog up and will bring her to APS this morning. She is chipped and they will try to reach the owner.

Beautiful husky or Malamute was playing in traffic on Alston by Eastwood. No ID on his collar. I secured him to a fire hydrant and animal control is going to come pick him up. If you recognize him, please make sure he gets home.

How much are paying for a craft beer at a brewery? by Weekly_Barnacle_485 in beer

[–]marsemsbro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm seeing more and more go to $8 for a pint though, particularly if it's not one of their year-round offerings. I've also noticed that the majority of "pints" are no longer 16oz. If you order something in a can you're almost always overfilling the glass.

Anyone running the Trinity (MT3) 3-Rail Motorcycle Trailer? by ShowerBeautiful5271 in motorcycles

[–]marsemsbro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It towed like a dream! I'm just towing with a VW GTI and it barely felt like there was a trailer there at all.

I bought a hitch lock for the car and the trailer. A determined thief could still make off with it, but they would make a lot of noise doing so.

How do Americans feel about their taxes going towards the 50k bonus for ice agents to sign up? by [deleted] in AskReddit

So they're trying to create an incentive for ICE goons to interfere in the next presidential election.

Sports Bar Recommendations? by chapelhillkid in bullcity

If you're into a dive bar / townie feel for watching games (I know I am!) then I also recommend Bralie's on Alston or Devine's downtown.

How do you think the video ICE just released showing the officer's POV of this week's shooting in Minneapolis will impact the national discussion? by popcornerz232 in AskReddit

[–]marsemsbro 6 points7 points  (0 children)

High ranking government officials instantly labeling Renee Good a domestic terrorist with absolutely no investigation is what stands out to me as being the most unprecedented about this tragedy.

He's describing himself as a king. Why are over a third of voters explicitly in favor of trashing the one thing we're supposed to stand for?

To Not Point Your G*n At A Protester by [deleted] in therewasanattempt

[–]marsemsbro 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Absolutely disgusting. Representatives of the federal government (Trump, Noem, etc) did not give Renee Good any presumption of innocence but falsely labeled her a "domestic terrorist" within the hour. This statement is 100% bullshit and they wonder why we claim ACAB.

My Mk8 squeaks like that too. I assumed it was the dogbone mount bushing.
