    You should feel even worse than you do about your former political affiliations. And your inner neocon tendencies that you have been unable to shake. They are deep rooted, I understand. But don't project your lack of ability to conceive of a rational foreign policy on me. Keep supporting the endless neocon war game, shape shifting between D and R affiliations. Because we all really know that there is no difference when it comes to our foreign policy posture.  

    Man, I think people would have a modicum of respect for you if you would simply state your opinion on a topic instead of just flinging shit. Outside of "bombing brown people is bad" (which i obviously agree with) wtf would you do about anything?

    You're a worthless "both sides" buffoon.

    Nope, throw the book at him. That said, it seems like the 2A "enforce the existing laws" crew should want drug testing before all gun purchases, which I am sure you are down with, right?

    If his last name was anything other than Biden, none of you would have a problem with locking him up and throwing away the key.

    I think that you should start a campaign to lobby legislators on this topic and report back with your notes on how that goes. 

    I am confused by your dizzying intellect, so I have a follow-up question for you to not answer directly - is it important that drug users not buy guns? If the form is that important, that's the goal, correct?

    This is the part where some of the posters that want more gun laws find ways to contort themselves into not wanting to enforce them. Because reasons.

    Marcel Dareus and Colt’s shoulder can funally be consigned to the dust heap of history. Is this a similar watershed? Time will tell. Sark sez, “Veni, vidi, vici, motherfuckers!”  My crimson ball cap’s off to you denizens of Surly. Peace out while I kick my wounds. Wallow in all the success, Horns. You have earned it and richly deserve it. 

    Ah yes, how sweet the wine...

  6. From the link above that Rex wouldn't click:

    • Ferrari confirms plans for first electric car
    • Electric supercar set to arrive before 2026
    • Could come with four electric motors
    • More than 1,000hp possible
    • Could be the most powerful Ferrari ever

    Other notes:

    • Tesla now has a tool in their app to throttle car charging to only use solar power (assuming you have panels) so you would theoretically not be consuming fossil fuels to charge the car. It's a little unwieldy currently, so I haven't played with it too much. They will fix that
    • I'm a little surprised more isn't made of the power (particularly acceleration) of EVs, outside of the Plaid. My M3P does 0-60 in 3.1 seconds, but more importantly, it accelerates that fast from 60-90, which is helpful in real-world traffic situations
    • I don't know that EVs will reduce fossil fuel usage, but why on earth should we add them (along with robust solar usage) to the mix. If all of the big warehouses/parking lots had solar panels above them, it would have a stabilizing influence overall

    The O/G people who rail against EVs and renewable energy are a real beating and they are missing the opportunities available in the space.

    I don’t follow politics much. I know I’d never vote for trump. He’s a shitbag and just about as old & senile as Biden. But it’s pretty easy to see that trump will wipe the floor with Biden in the 2024 election, and will probably win the popular vote outright even. People say Biden has been very effectual… what exactly has he done? The only thing most people know him for is massively failing with the student debt relief he promised.

    As a reminder, this poster was adamant (during the counting after the election) that Trump was going to win. Despite everyone in the world telling him how the math/ballot counting worked, he could not be swayed.

    In short, he's a fucking idiot.

    EV drivers do a significant amount support the natural gas industry in texas.  generally, 40-50% texas grid is fed by natural gas.  when people plug their ev's in, the charge received by the car does not arrive by magic.

  9. I signed up through verified fan and got Wednesday tickets in FW. The site had a bit of a meltdown at 10, but I got tickets. I've had great luck with PJ tickets since you had to call a random number back in the 90s when they were fighting with Ticketmaster.
