Call me old school, but I want manual transmissions to make a comeback. Anyone who can drive a stick shift uphill without stalling is made for greatness.

A nice dark roast after dinner is really one of the finer things in life

Some of the boomer slop from Facebook is actually pretty good, honestly. The "wistful boomer veteran" genre of posts in particular. They hit like existentialist meditations from the Dark Side of Margaritaville.

25 years ago PRIDE would have had this guy debut against prime Fedor. They'd make a 5 minute video package questioning if Fedor could submit "The man with no neck." he'd lose in 12 seconds and then immediately end up in commercials for a Japanese turtleneck company.

Can you rt this? Maybe we can make a difference

@Jelly_Bear06 @fendigaid @DukeHerndon Hell, I graduated in 2014 and none of my friends looked like this. Those guys look like freshmen

@fendigaid @DukeHerndon This is actually the result of androgen disruption. The boys should not (and did not) look this childlike, on average, even 30 years ago. Significant age gaps have not been the norm in western culture.

For anyone still fighting the idea of an age gap relationship, note the difference between these graduating seniors. She is fully-formed. These boys are still doughy lumps of clay.

The USDA has kept raccoon rabies out of the central United States for over 30 years by air-dropping fish-flavored ravioli from helicopters. Each one is a small packet coated in fishmeal with an oral rabies vaccine inside. Raccoons, foxes, coyotes, and skunks find them by smell, bite through, and swallow. Many animals that consume the bait develop immunity, helping build a protective barrier across populations. The bait is generally considered safe for pets and tested in many non-target species. The USDA's Wildlife Services has been running this since 1995. Without the bait program, raccoon rabies very likely would have spread much further west. A federal program you've probably never heard of is protecting your pets and your kids by feeding wild animals ravioli from a helicopter.

@collapsedskull A good idea.

what the fuck is this

The heat is nature's ozempic. You're not hungry when you are in hot weather. But once you step into air conditioning, your hunger returns quickly

@BigGulpAmerikan Yeah, thats why he said it was a bar. Bars in NY are required by law to have food to serve, most just have snacks and burgers and use paper plates if theyre not a dedicated restaurant. Pickled eggs are a classic food they keep around, lasts forever

Have never seen a “restaurant” serve on paper plates or crackers as a side (without soup). Must be an insane world out there. Befuddlement and incredulity waiting around every corner.

@TamTamTammy3 We just walk on the street. Everyone drives <30mph in these neighborhoods and the roads are wide. Drivers are used to pedestrians walking on the side of the road, so theyre usually cautious.

It's so crazy to me that America has so many places without sidewalks. Are you just trapped if you don't have a car?

“Techron” is the additive Chevron puts in their gas. Top-teir gas stations utilize additives to keep customers fuel systems clean. While its not bad to buy cheapo gas every once in a while, it’s guaranteed to build up sludge and increase carbon deposits at a faster rate than top-tier.

Californians, if you’re hitting the road this holiday weekend, be sure to AVOID Chevron. Pro tip: unbranded gas comes from the same refineries, storage tanks, and pipelines, and it meets the same state standards to keep your engine running clean, even if it doesn’t have a fancy name like ‘Techron.’  Big Oil is already making billions off Trump’s Iran War; don’t let them rip you off even more by overpaying for the brand name.

@KurtSchlichter I saw Mickey Dolenz live when I was younger. Fuck, that guy is talented

I want to defend to the death idea that the Monkees are an incredible band and totally underrated and should be part of the rock ‘n roll Hall of Fame

@uncledoomer @BanePiller1352 I know this is semi-ironic, but it is outright hilarious to me how the “thanks Obama” joke, which was made by liberals to mock boomercons blaming everything on Obama, actually turned out to be a pretty good heuristic for understanding the decline of American life.

*zoomer Rodney Dangerfield* I told my hb it’s problematic that he’s 20 and dating a high schooler. He said “No cap?” Yea, no gown either!

This should be implemented in every city in America

@BENZOTOOIE “This car climbed Mt. Washington” vibes

Calling taking Ozempic a “weight loss journey” is like bragging that you did a 5K in your car.

Nothing makes me disrespect a public figure more than turning off comments on social media. Like, why bother being in the public eye if you cant take the heat?
