I came SOOO close to putting that idiom in my response because I could see it a mile away. But what I, and the protestors themselves are saying, is that a electric cyber truck isn't even "good".

This is an odd argument to make for a vegan. Because both of those farms need dismantling. Just like electric AND gas cars need to be phased out. While I can agree all these things do inequal damage, it's STILL damage. Electric cars are a step but absolutely NOT a solution to climate change. Removing gas from the situation is well enough, but we need mass transit and rebuilt infrastructures to support it.

It's wise to protest the placebo so people start seeking the cure. Especially when the placebo comes in a oversized impractical truck for.

when I'm about to have them hundreds of dollars getting my busted-ass, POS car fixed?

As someone who has only ever driven broken down POS, I feel for you OP. Focus on getting it running, not making it perfect. Wishing you well and hoping it's cheap! <3

The Cybertruck weighs almost three tons, so its enormous weight means it consumes an absurdly high amount of energy. Senseless waste that we as a society cannot afford. Add to that the sharp-edged construction: a safety disaster. The truck perfectly illustrates where the anti-social policies of the last few decades have led us: a few rich people drive well-armored into the disaster – and take everyone with them.

The Republican District Attorney in Butler County, PA, should immediately file charges against Joseph R. Biden for inciting an assassination.

Why? Supreme court very explicitly said that it would be legal.

Prison officials tell ABC15 that if temperatures exceed 85 degrees, then ice is free.

How generous...

Hi there!

I believe the old mods of vegancirclejerk were inactive, I was just recently promoted and hoping to change that perception! I agree, WAY too much unironic carnism is posted there.

Because I used an iPhone for most of my life and then realized what a walled isolated island it was. Android offers infinitely more freedom and I would never go back. The mere fact that you can't entirely customize an iPhone hoke screen is still shocking to me.

I had a girlfriends father insist on taking the whole family to the gun range as a "fun day out thing". Not my thing, but why say no to new experience? Besides her dad had always openly carried so it was clearly something HE was into, so being invited to family time with him felt like a kindness

But oh joy, was I thankful that a gun instructor was there, literally everything her dad said was corrected. From hand placement, to how to load to how to stand. The guy nearly kicked dad off the range at one point for having a loaded gun facing his kid.

Thankfully I never had to suffer his company since we broke up later, but it was a very eye opening experince. Being INTO guns definitely does not correlate with safe usage.
