Yeah and again, the people responsible for deciding if they are attending Eurovision aren't responsible for any of that. They arent 1 people. The relevance of their defense spending vs their attendance to a music competition is nada. I'd rather there being mild hypocrisy vs 100% complicity.

Its ok. You dont have to agree with the truth. I didn't expect you would. ๐Ÿ˜„ The comment isn't to convince you. Its about you.

A government isn't a monolith. Nor are its people. I wager the people making this decision dont buy weapons at all. Its silly to act like the Netherlands are 1 person that you can call a hypocrite. So silly it borders on propaganda.

I was blown away when I heard what my mother-in-law was charged for curtains 5 years ago. It was thousands of dollars. When I bought some myself I was shocked to see a long straight sheet was expensive.

Well they arent a trans lobbying group. They're a gun ownership and gun rights lobbying group.

Or you just still own your old car because it runs. Its not a rich people thing just because the guy in the article is rich. When I stumble upon classic car shows, the vibe is "long term project cars" and not "affluent collectors".

My father in law maintains a Triumph Race car with the machine shop in his garage. It'll never legitimately pass smog, but its also driven once or twice a month and he's owned it for like 50+ years.

I was gonna say, I dont think thats right. I haven't watched any long format content from him besides his recent interview with Hasan Minhaj. Everything else ive seen is short clips because I dont really like the format of streamers just reacting/reading/responding to chat for like 3 hours.

I know there are people that got mad at him for voicing that America has some responsibility for 9/11, but I think there are always gonna be people that dont want to understand a nuanced take.

Its the language set for your client UI I wager.

Huh, I think that just wrong. The character of Deadpool is still him, which would be strange to change, but I think alot of it was unexplored before and an interesting contribution to the Loki storyverse. Also Hugh Jackman did a great job reprising the role of wolverine.

Deadpool is a meta character, but despite that (or because of it?) I think it's a fresh take on the state of the MCU each time, taking pot shots at the existing formula from within it.

Yeah. I think my car has a pretty decent build overall but the (I shit you not) 14 recalls ive had to bring it in for ranging from door handle replacements, firmware updates, back hatch issues makes me raise an eyebrow to it. I let a few stack up before I bring it in because I never notice any issue before or after, but better to get the free service than not.

Evidence strongly counters my own feelings on the matter.

Sounds like a good reason to skip buying any car warranty going forward since I'll be attempting to void that shit almost immediately.

Bad business decisions all around.

 

I've noticed that every product I've bought in the past year with a zip-lock seal is destroyed with common use. I actually think the zip-lock itself has gotten stronger. The bag rips before the seal opens on half the bags now and whenever I try to opens bags I had no issues with before, I find myself stretching/warping the plastic before the seal eventually opens.

It's pretty frustrating and I am seeing it across many products. Cheese bags, storage bags, snacks etc...
