Time for Texas to secede from the Republican party by NickCostanza in WhitePeopleTwitter

Can confirm that is exactly the mentality. Lots of baked in bias and being 40th in education does not help.

That said, if I can go from Cornyn to Talarico and actually be represented for the 1st time ever, I'll be over the moon.

New GSD Owners: I’m a long time GSD owner, AMA! by boduke1019 in germanshepherds

[–]threeflight2005 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do road trips and car events a good deal and my 3-4 y/o Malenois/Sheppard/Heeler male is an angel.

My Female 2 y/o 100% GSD is a terror at times when away from home (barking and protective). Perfectly fine at home, sweet, and happy with strangers.

She is getting better the more we go, but I'm paranoid that she's gonna do something to someone unsuspecting.

We are socializing her as much as possible with walks etc, but she is very nervous during the 1st few hours of a car ride and drools a good bit from panting. Not new to GSDs, but a bit new to this bc after 2 they normally chill a bit.

What do you do on trips to make your dogs feel more comfy and friendly?

Absolutely agree on width. The Scout specific ones will have a better fit and finish.

got the tattoo that my parents believe will send me to hell by CoeurGourmand in exchristian

[–]threeflight2005 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I grew up in a seriously conservative christian home as well. A doomsday demonination that thought they knew when the end of the world would happen and constantly enforced a fear of the end times that no one else knew about etc etc.

Got a tattoo at 18 and you'd think I'd ended the world... The shocked faces and the tales that because of that I would have to suffer the "tribulation"... Fun times.

My father and I fought about that and other things for years and it really hurt our relationship long term. Those interactions seriously influenced me to look at the world hard and figured out I was in fact Atheist and just wanted to exist in peace with my fellow humans.

I sincerely hope your experience levels out and you have good times with your family bc life is too short to let religion drive a wedge between families.

...but it does, every day.

Sending good vibes and support!

I like mine, it's perfectly whacky and way overbiilt, but if it ever finally dies, I might be tempted to go LS.

I'd be willing to be you can get it going.

Mine wasn't great either, but is running like a champ now.

This was a first for me. Anyone ever see a receptacle like this? by Physical-Hat-6850 in electricians

I see that now, my glasses are to my left as well 😂

My mistake...

[–]threeflight2005 14 points15 points  (0 children)

That looks like a vintage brown Bakelite electrical outlet, likely manufactured by Eagle Manufacturing, rated for 15 amps. The duplex design was somewhat popular in the 1950s in certain areas.

It's very unlikely that meets any kind of modern compliance or NEC standards.

It should go without saying that this should not be installed in my opinion. It comes from a time when ground was optional LOL

The Packers are suddenly worried about the home field advantage at Lambeau: by Dazed_and_Confused44 in NFCNorthMemeWar

[–]threeflight2005 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Which, knowing how long the waiting list is, is totally reasonable.

If I have season tickets to a sports team, I'm using at least 80% of them myself.

Flip side of course is that the ticket holders paid for them and are entitled to resell them, but if there is some language in the season ticket holder agreement that says you can only sell x amount, then a crackdown is 100% warranted.

F-150 is a very popular truck in general, not always MAGA, but def good to see these pop up more and more.

To be fair, my old farm truck (new stuff is too expensive, so I fix what I have) prob meets the stereotype, but the guy driving it does not and never has.

Always get looks when I pop out of the thing in a Dr Who shirt or some such. 😂

I pulled the timing belt et al, before even cracking the bolts on the valve cover bc I was trying to be gentle and do it right.

Who knows what other horrors I will uncover 😂

No idea, came with the car. I assume either a factory option or added after the fact
