That probably does something to it as well, but ok then change it to “I can’t believe that he was actually elected”.

That just goes to show how bad the US is at electing leaders. Just terrible, even when good options do exist, to the point that I still don’t fully believe Mamdani is the New York Mayor.

Used to work with structural engineers. Ohhhh buddy the senior people were wild for that kinda crap.

We never teach these skills and then we threaten people with job loss for imperfection so most people are unequipped for the job and terrified of the consequences. Combine that with refusal to pay people in “lower” positions more than managers means that good people are promoted out of their area of expertise and into management which is just such a huge problem.

Society is fucking dumb.

I’m sorry, so besides not wanting to pay a person to drive the vehicle, the fuck does this service actually provide again?

That isn’t what they were saying at all. The first person said they hoped that the bad shit would be undone by the next adminstration and the person you responded to mentioned past examples where new administrations did not do a lot, if anything, to undo awful policy. They didn’t say that the Democrats were just as bad but they rightly pointed out that said party doesn’t really put a lot of effort into fixing what was broken.

You are using subpar metals, brother. And the intricacy of their carvings will be delicate, nearly flat, so as not to disrupt functionality.

Hahahahahahahaha

And then if there are, they don’t really get enforced.

My mom drove my BRZ to the store once since it was the last car in the driveway. She walked out into the parking lot after with my sister and was like “oh fuck, I just lost his new car”.

It was behind a small sedan, like a Corolla or something haha

It’s wild how clean that road looks beside the completely fucked sidewalk.

That’s not really the gotcha you think it is. Yea, the US weny from fighting with guns for labour rights to letting the gig-economy chew them up and sometimes they protest until they get tired and go home.
