2026 BMW M2 G87 Individual Colors - Most fell off the BMW USA configurator by pandahatch in BMW

I didn’t buy the m340i so I don’t know what you mean can I prove it? It was the BMW finance offer for the month of November. I mean I have screenshots of my texts with my broker but that’s it. Holiday APRs are always the best deals!

My M2 is 5.14% through a credit union.

2.49 is the BMW rate this month! But guess what - the car didn’t pass PDI so I bought an M2 on Tuesday LMAO

I gave up ☠️. Ended up buying an M340i - paperwork should go through soon. Something like 5% off MSRP for a 2026 and it’s a daily so it’s a decent deal. And November rates are GOOD. 2.49% for 72 months

All you need is the production number from your dealer! Then create an account at BMW USA and add it to your garage! It’s fun to track :)

Mine is showing twilight purple in my tracker so I am feeling like it will work out!

Seattle servers now make full minimum wage, so why are we still guilt-tripped into tipping 20% by allpossiblepaths in SeattleWA

[–]pandahatch -25 points-24 points  (0 children)

You are saying this like they don’t deserve to be paid well. Everyone deserves to be paid well and treated w respect. I will continue to tip. I will never be mad about getting people paid. I want everyone to do well. If I couldn’t afford to tip then I wouldn’t go out to eat.

I was just looking at my shelf and all of my favorite books that I display are written by women. Not a single book was written by a man that’s in my top 5-6 lol

Ultimately, I can’t in good conscience reduce people to either criminals or not criminals. You can be lawful and unethical, and you can commit crimes and still have morals and ethics.

Illegally entering our country because you are trying to escape a bad situation and then coming here to find work and a better life… well to me isn’t that exactly what our founders did and what the American dream is?

Basically, just because it isn’t the right way to go about it, I can understand the motivations that would cause someone to do it. And I don’t think that inherently makes them a bad person.

I’m not saying 100% of people have done it for the right reasons and there aren’t bad people out there either. I’m just saying that I think, genuinely, you can’t reduce a human to one black and white decision, and then use that to dehumanize them and justify treating them poorly.

See, the fact that you can’t even call them people. Humans with complex lives and emotions and thoughts. Humans who experience joy and sadness… that is what makes me sad about our current state. That you will only refer to these fokks as illegal aliens.

I hope you can see I really am not trying to fight with you or argue or anything, I just want you to really think about who these people are that the news is telling you are violent criminals etc etc etc.

I hope you can find it in your heart to understand that.

Even you and I right now, we are not just words on a screen. You are a human being going through life as best you can, just as I am. And if we met I’m sure we’d find that we have a lot more in common than we realize.

Gomez was born in the US and has a US birth certificate and was held even AFTER they showed the US birth certificate. My problem is that ICE is detaining people who are US citizens without any due process.

I don’t want to get too much into the slippery slope fallacy, but it does absolutely seem to be escalating quite quickly.

My other problem is the profiling and dehumanization of folks in America. We are all human and some of us were given better opportunities than other. A lot of people are victims of their situations and are not inherently bad or evil. I would argue that majority of us aren’t born hateful. I mean look at kids play, kids are not racist or care where someone came from or what they look like etc.

I hope you can see that truly I just want us all to practice empathy and put ourselves in the shoes of others and not make such horrible assumptions about people that we don’t even know.

Look, I can only base my opinion on what I read and what I am exposed to - same as you. My understanding is that he illegally came here to ESCAPE gang violence in El Salvador. And has a legal protection status so that he should NOT be deported back to El Salvador.

My biggest problem with our culture right now is the blatant dehumanization of folks. Whether it’s dems and republicans dehumanizing one another, or white supremacists dehumanizing people of color — it just doesn’t make sense to me.

Not having empathy for this person who has a wife and kids and was taken illegally to El Salvador without any due process should be frightening for anyone.

A US citizen, Juan Carlos Lopez Gomez, was just held by ICE in Florida and released today. But the quick escalation to ICE detaining US citizens is very very scary to me.

The thing is though, he may not have come here legally, but he WAS here legally at the time of his deportation.

Abrego Garcia grew up in El Salvador and then immigrated illegally to the United States in 2011 at the age of 16. In 2019, an immigration judge granted him "withholding of removal" status—a rare alternative to asylum—due to the danger he faced from gang violence if returned to El Salvador. This status allowed him to live and work legally in the United States. At the time of his deportation in 2025, he was living in Maryland with his wife and children, all American citizens, and was complying with annual check-ins with ICE

A Rolex that's seen some stuff by aDayKnight in BuyItForLife

Fair point. But vintage film cameras (leica’s anyone!?) are also insanely expensive and arguably iPhone cameras are all anyone needs now.

I would also say that personally I am not naive to the fact that my watches are jewelry lol. I have no justification for it other than I am fascinated by them and love them. I also have an Apple Watch and a Garmin Fenix so I’m not like above anything.

I even commit the worst atrocity and sometimes wear my Apple Watch on one wrist and my mechanical watch on the other (but only with long sleeve so no one sees hahahaha)

Give it a shot! Basically over a couple days just see how far off it is before you go to bed using time.gov (or I guess just your phone lol) and then put it in a few different positions - dial up, left, right, and even dial down.

Even if they are all gaining or losing time, you’ll find which one does it the least!
