SARGE

A doll house where there's an even smaller doll house inside, where the tiny TV in the living room plays episodes of the show Dollhouse.

I know someone who did something like this.

They bought a huge garage/warehouse on an empty plot of land, and built essentially two floors of a house right next to each other inside it. Didn't make it look fancy though, just enough to keep the insulation in and hold everything solidly together.

His reasoning? "it's got to be cheaper to heat and easier to maintain if it's inside a cheaper building"

He's lived there for over a decade and has since gotten married and had a kid, so it's still working for him.

Slander is Spoken

Libel is Literary

It's definitely because of his work in The Fifth Element.

I mean, the rest of his extensive filmography is nice I guess, but Fifth Element was his Magnum Opus.

Nobody wears tilted hair like Sir Gary Oldman.

I'll be honest, I don't believe that Israel waited for a "green light" from the US for a second. I don't believe they even bothered to check in the first place.

It doesn't matter because republicans will green light anything Israel wants to do as long as it doesn't hurt their bank account. They gave carte Blanche a long time ago.

All of this is a distraction, from both the US and Israel, for different things. Don't get distracted in trying to point fingers and play the blame game. All players here suck ass for different reasons, with the ones attacking and backing being top of the list.

Nobody asked or gave permission because the answer was always going to be "do whatever you want"

Having been in the US military, I honestly think it would be about an even split between people who agree/don't agree but will go along with orders vs disagree/undecided but unwilling to murder civilians.

Of course it would never have been "all or nothing" but I think people would be surprised at where the split is and for what reasons people picked their side.

And I'm being completely serious here: I fully believe members of the US military would carry out a nuclear strike on US soil, as long as it was one of "the woke states", in order to make a point of "oppose us and we will kill all of you even if we die too"

There's a spot in Ohio that has like 20 lanes, and an overpass over itself so that people in the far left lanes don't miss an exit. It basically just shifts two left lanes 6 lanes to the right by picking them up, shoving all the others over, and dropping it back down.

The first time I noticed it I thought for sure I was mistaken.

Surely another lane might solve the congestion issues making that necessary?

Well I sure hope it does!

It would be pretty weird it if floated on cedar trees.

10/10 you can see little spider webs with moisture beads

Might restart it

Or don't give them money, and go sailing instead.

And I’m not trying to imply that there is no reason to need a truck or no reason to need an SUV.

I didn't mean to imply that's what you were saying.

There are exceptions, but yeah 99% of trucks and SUVs on the road simply don't need to be there.

I'd love electric van, honestly. Most of the stuff I use my truck for doesn't need the open space up top or the ability to drop a load from above/the side, and the few times I have needed that I could have spent an hour hand loading things. Plus I'd prefer the extra security of having an enclosed cargo space. Vans are better than trucks in all but a small set of circumstances

Most days I don't need a truck. Most days I don't want a truck.

But that's what I've got and I can't exactly just buy a new vehicle, or simply change jobs to one I can cycle to.

I'm a minority though, for most people it's compensation for insecurity or attempted status symbol. Around here we call them "pavement princesses" because they never touch dirt and likely couldn't navigate a back yard with its current driver.

My in-laws have a van that can out-pull my pickup. Partly due to my trucks age and how heavily it has been used over the years, but their van isn't exactly a pushover.

And they have their own pickup that is only a few years old and it can't tow their camper very well. They use their van whenever they can.
