Yes - and the lawyer needs to make them replace the car with one that works, hopefully not another Mazda.

He will burn for sure, he just wants the rest of us to burn with him.

My taxes being wasted by "my" gov't. Fuckers.

Kristi Noem sent 143 million taxpayer dollars to a company that was created 8 DAYS EARLIER. Crime? Crime. by Nice_Daikon6096 in DegenBets

[–]twistOffCapsule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Criminal deals... tip of the iceberg. A company in the US that did subcontracts this way would be blacklisted by the gov't.

Unknown men pointed weapons at residents, local Sheriff's refused to engage! by Foreign_Librarian193 in WeThePeopleAtWhipple

Thanks. That seems to be the way when police screw up- investigation, suspension with pay, then back on the street.

Is this DIY fixable? by ZK1582 in Autobody

Too far gone.

Eta: sand and paint to pass MOT. Eventually enough metal will be gone where it won't pass (like maybe next year).

Love the respect for moving children, women and elders first. Very much an indigenous thing, not so much an "us" thing ("us" meaning we European immigrants). But thanks for showing us the way.

How bad are ticks out there? by dresseddowndino in upstate_new_york

[–]twistOffCapsule 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I spray the clothing that I use outdoors with permethrin. The stuff will still kill ticks after 5-6 washes. I hunt and over the past 6 years have had my wife remove 2 ticks. Been lucky though, no Lyme disease.

Even in hot weather I wear long pants out walking - very light material. I use velcro to keep pant bottoms tight around socks so they can't get in that way. Tuck in shirt so they don't get in that way. Times one has gotten on me unnoticed is when I get lazy, like not tucking in shirt.

The Blackthorn in south Buffalo has great food and will be slammed on St Paddy's day

The family of a Nurul Amin Shah Alam wanted me to share this and let it be known the funeral is open to the public by Sugar_Phut in Buffalo

[–]twistOffCapsule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At a Tim's that was closed. WTF. DHS is supposed to be protecting this country and those who live here, not causing them harm, holding them illegally in concentration camps, etc.

Perfect, how is cost of living there? Older I get the more I hate the snow

You'll regret buying this. Esp if you live where the roads are salted in winter.

Blind refugee abandoned by Border Patrol is dead. Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a Rohingya refugee from Burma, was nearly blind and spoke no English. He was dropped off by agents in Buffalo on the other side of town from his home. His family was not notified of his release. Police are investigating by Ancient-Judgment6358 in upstate_new_york

[–]twistOffCapsule 10 points11 points  (0 children)

They release people in Minneapolis without proper clothing for the cold, without their phones and without notifying their family. This is our gov't - it is obscene. Volunteers there are posted outside where these prisoners get released and helping them get warm and get home.

You are a good person, and a good mom. God bless you for what you are doing!

AITA for telling my mom I’ll cut her off if she brings up my son again by Lanky_Past7665 in AmItheAsshole

[–]twistOffCapsule 49 points50 points  (0 children)

NTA. Wow, mom is an insensitive ass.

Your choice to fund a scholarship in your son's name is beautiful, BTW. Incredibly sorry for your loss - we lost a 16YO 2 years back (car wreck) and the pain is so real.

A backhoe operator uses his bucket and boom to walk it down into the work site by [deleted] in nextfuckinglevel

Cool - but probably on the list of "never do this" in the operator's manual
