Crazy. I have hiked hundreds of miles in the thin hiking socks, and while they weren't nearly as durable as the midweights, they still outperformed every other sock I have tried. Smartwool, rei, carhartt, typical cotton socks etc. I guess as with most things, YMMV

Well, that sucks that your experience was poor, especially at their price point. I would be a bit frustrated with the brand as well.

I do indeed. Most of mine are the midweight quarter high hikers.

So does every republican get their balls returned to them upon retirement? It's like they sign an NDA to be associated with the party.

That's like, what, a banana maybe?

One of the only brands I would ever promote, Darn Tough socks.

Wear em out, ship them back, order a free pair. It's that easy and they are the most comfortable, durable socks I have ever worn. Won't ever buy another brand.

Damn Alex, that's a sore-dick deal if I have ever heard one. Carpe fuckin diem, comrade!

Maybe he's full of it. Maybe it's Maybelline.

They will take advantage of Ukraine's extensive supercharger network. That's a good idea. He should send all cybertrucks there.

She just wants him to remember to put the eyeliner back where he found it or buy his own.

Dang. I didn't realize how bad Sync is at rendering posts. It's a giant unformatted mess for me as well. That screenshot is a far more tolerable presentation.

There is a time and a place for n-parties in this crappy political environment we are subject to, but this election is simply not it. Voting green or indie in this election dramatically increases the chances of there being only a single viable party for all future "elections" from here on out.

It's easy to get jaded, but it's best to push Republicans out of the picture and foster a more progressive green party in future elections.

Nothing sustainably good happens quickly in politics, but conversely, our actions in this election can have abrupt, and irreversible consequences.

I'm not telling to to sit this one out or whatever - you do you, but I do ask you to think of what party you are actively trying to cannibalize and then consider the fallout that may be blowing our way.

Oh, and for conversations sake, I don't care about this shame game they are playing right now. This is trivial nit-picking and neither newsworthy nor thread-worthy. Both sides, sure, whatever. There are greater topics like democracy, human rights, voter rights, labor rights etc that are on the table and this "both sides' nonsense doesn't not hold up.

I live in Southern Oregon and it's gotten to the point that I'm actually a little surprised when I don't see them side by side on pickups or flagpoles. On the way through Camas Valley or somewhere between the 5 and the coast, IIRC, there is a flagpole that has those, a thin green line flag and a Trump flag, just to really confuse everyone.

It's truly baffling. Perhaps not that they don't seem to understand, at the most fundamental levels, what they are so passionate about, but that they are so eager to let everyone know.
