Bill Packets

彼がどこの国の何者か知らない。 大皿いっぱいの豚肉の角煮に、唐辛子のソースを大量にぶっかけ、野っぱらで一人むさぼり食っている。 風貌からして多分彼にも妻や子がいるかもしれない。しかしそれらは放ったらかしにして、好きなだけ好きなように唐辛子に火の息を吐きつつ豚肉を食っている。 当然辛いだろう。しかし彼は陶然として唐辛子の刺激に酔いつつ、ひたすらに肉にかぶりつく。酒も必要ないらしい。 蛮勇である。何万年もの間、男たちが思い描いてきた素朴な夢の一つを彼は今実現している。唐辛子の前は胡椒や岩塩であったろう。 なぜ我々は大皿いっぱいの豚肉を、幼児のように独り占めして貪り食っていないのだろう。やろうと思えば今日にもできる。小賢しい理屈をつけてやらないのだ。 この男になりたい。

Whenever the stock market reacts in a way that does not make sense, I come back and read this

@ADFeralThirst still convinced adam driver brought this shirt on set and they used it in this scene

HE'S SO FUNNY I HATE HIM

@dartinguphill and i was happy to pay it!

you don't wanna know what i just paid for a conestoga from the southeast to the pacific northwest...

@dartinguphill uh...that is a little over half of what i paid

@BillPackets $7,500?

@GoDuckYourself idk how long it will last...covered another to the northeast for a not crazy rate. i had multiple carriers offering like...not quite 20k on this, but like, within a few thousand of 20k. legal load

@BillPackets Damn! That’s great news. Holy moly last time I paid 5 figures was to Alaska!

@GoDuckYourself i am not sure what the OB OR market is like for open decks but 7k feels tight...not impossible but also pretty tight. some broker would take it tho and the board is hot...numerous loads posted 5 figures, 9k is a gimme right now

@BillPackets I’m lying in bed on vacation I’m just curious we rarely get a driver up here usually only on high paying stuff. Company is HQ is in Atlanta I quoted a 7000 for a 132in wide load to Indiana outbound out of Oregon last week will most likely broker that one

@GoDuckYourself actually...not close. check the postings on DAT from NC/SC into OR/WA for flats/conestogas

@BillPackets 8000

@Molson_Hart that is what LTL is, how they make money is by nickel and diming...the places they say are "limited delivery" or "residential" is...kind of insane

Everyone on this website (and on podcasts) celebrates XPO and its founder like their geniuses of logistics It's a private equity roll-up based in Greenwich, CT (the real finance capital of the US). There isn't even a truck terminal next to their HQ on "American Lane". PS we just used them to ship a pallet and they jacked up the price after delivery for "California surcharge" and "Residential surcharge" — we told you that the pickup was in California and the address BEFORE you gave us the lower price, which you jacked up! So tired of this fake "capitalism" that is celebrated like it creates any real value. It's extractive.

Everything Trump has done in the past year can simply be distilled into this

Bedtime talk 5 year old: "When you die, I will hug you one last time before they bury you." 2.5 year old: "When I grow up, maybe I will be a bat. Maybe I am growing into a bat right now."

Sometimes you look up from your phone and realize that the highway you’re driving on is quite beautiful

At a weed store you can say, " I want something to help me sleep that won't make me wonder if my back door is unlocked," and they will take you seriously, think hard about it, and then say something like, "have you tried Ooga Booga Skywalker cake?"

emergency vet be like give us three million dollars right now or your cat gets the firing squad

Seeing a video of Houthis overtaking a cargo boat and celebrating by holding up a package from Grailed with my name and address clearly printed on the shipping label. They open it to find a vintage Ohio State university sweatshirt and all take turns wearing it
