Found out this morning that my supervisor can’t afford to drive to work. He has a big truck and a long drive but… It’s already happening.

I’m from Oklahoma and I’ve only got the five per hand. Please don’t send Inigo Montoya after me.

I don’t think the tick marks are on the actual tram.

Have to add the chair-catching woman to the level.

I want $15. Let’s price everyone out of commuting.

Ok, so, what is your suggestion? The people who are directly perpetrating this war are hiding behind armed guards. Have you noticed that no rightwing politician in the US has done an interview outside since September 10th of last year?

It’s easy to sit at your keyboard and suggest people on the other side of the ocean fight and die for your conscience. It’s harder and more time consuming to build parallel systems to support those who are against the regime.

You probably think the media is telling you what’s happening over here, don’t you?

Silly question for the lemmy brain trust: what happens when most people are priced out of commuting?

Seems like that would inadvertently bring about a general strike.

You can have fun with this.

I used to own a Geo Metro. For those who aren’t familiar with cars sold in the US 30+ years ago, the Metro was a tiny little car with a 55 horsepower, 1.0 liter engine.

The most frustrating part about driving the car wasn’t that it was slow, it’s that it was never slow enough. I was always stuck behind someone’s Twin Turbo GT something or other that was going 10 under the limit. And then you’d pass them, and they would drop their cellphone to make sure I knew their car, which cost considerably more than mine did, was faster. It was crazy. It didn’t matter if I was going the speed limit or even if I was going too fast.

The worst part is I started to weaponize it. I’d see some goofball in a big lifted truck down the road from a known speed trap, and I’d pass them… They would immediately jump to the defense of their frangible masculinity, and they would inevitably fly by a speed trap at 70 on a residential street while showing me how cool they were.

I tried that, but I froze my lips because the school buses nearby run on LPG.

$2.99 this morning in northeast OK. It was $2.39 on March 1st, and jumped to $2.99 on the 2nd. I was surprised it didn’t go up this morning… But I’m sure it has gone up since I drove to work.

Soooo glad I have a silly little fuel efficient car.

I don’t know, I installed Mint last year and it’s been great.

I like it. “Which do you feel safer around, a cop or a crackhead?” Should upset the wife beaters.

All wrapped up in an easy-to-roll package

It does have some very nice solar panels on it, though.

Slut.

Mostly because of my selfish perverted wife who won’t share me. But also because I have only enough room in my head for one romantic partner at a time.

The only thing better than having a perverted girlfriend is having a pervert for a wife.

I see you haven’t experienced pibble farts.

To be fair, she could not. She could only look better.

My wife caught me looking at porn just once. Her response was “You know, we’re married and we could just do that.”

Porn was more a habit at that point than I realized.

Nuclear power is really cool, but my biggest problem with building new reactors isn’t even the money issues you pointed out, it’s the fact that I live in the US and I don’t trust any regulatory agency to build a new nuclear power plant correctly/safely.

Solar panels and wind turbines are monumentally cheaper AND they don’t potentially cause ten thousand year contamination problems.
