bogleech: One of these is a magnificent machine designed for utility, towing, and all around blue collar work. The other is a useless status symbol. SAME BED SIZE. (Below is an image of a Kei Japanese imported truck that looks well-used next to a pristine Z-something midsized Chevy truck). Saw this Truck Discourse on Facebook and I'm not part of that world but yea that one on the left is delightful and I really had noidea just how wasteful and pointless the other kind is until this comparison. fucking-what: Image of a work truck with listed attributes Downward sloping hood. Advantages: - More aerodynamic, letting you go faster & spend less on gas. - Better road visibility for seeing children and obstacles - Less deadly if you hit someone - Lower lights don't impede other drivers' vision And an image of a modern pickup GMC on the right, labeled High front hood. Advantages: Lets you feel really tough, like a big boy. Below is another photo with the caption 20 Years of pickup truck design progress in one photo. The images is of an older, smaller pickup truck next to a much larger, more modern pickup truck. crevicedwelling: it's so sad that they've been selectively bred for size and aesthetics over their health. look at that pushed-in muzzle - there's no way the one on the right can breathe properly

Reminded me of this gem LMAO

WATCH: “An extraordinary betrayal of the American people.”

@krystalball.bsky.social lays out how Stephen Miller & Trump blatantly lied about being anti-war and said Kamala would do exactly what they’re doing now.

a graph of seattle link light rail ridership, shown as a rolling 12M average

US transit data is out today, and Seattle's Link remains one of the fastest-growing rail systems in the nation, with ridership up 9% in the wake of the extension to Federal Way

Ridership should increase even further at the end of this month when the 1 & 2 lines are connected🧵

Portland’s light rail system hasn’t expanded in ten years, has no plans to do so in the future btw

But don’t worry we’ve got billions lined up to spend on continued freeway expansions!

I was never going to take another job outside DOE in this administration but on the occasions folks tried to convince me to jump over to DOD, I made it very clear to them I would not willingly subject myself to this man.

i disagree with Tanner Greer on a lot, but he's right

Oh.

“We have agreed” — how nice of them! Surely they’re doing this work pro bono right?

So this post broke containment and lost a little of the context when it did but Bikini Kill are the ones donating to TCP, not Bandcamp. We generally choose a different org or mutual aid fund to support on Bandcamp Fridays and this is what we chose this month.

It was very satisfying to watch Ray delete the freeways in this video.

Condi Rice was W Bush's asset who studied Iran extensively, and she thinks that all Muslims must die so that Jesus and cheap gasoline can return

If it bothers you to see a Black person online say white people are racist, here's what you can do instead of attempting to refute them in their mentions. End racism.

Bumping this for the daytime crowd, as I'd like to get a heating-oil order in tomorrow if I can. 🙂

I watched an Australian cooking show last night. The host made a meringue, and the audience cheered.

How odd.

Australians usually boo meringue.

I knew this would do numbers on Reddit.

ICE arrested an Oregon shop owner who had her green card in her pocket: ‘They didn’t care’ Juanita Avila later helped expose ICE’s ‘arrest first, justify later’ tactics in a lawsuit that won a major victory for immigrants’ rights

NEW: ICE tackled + arrested Juanita Avila, an Oregon shop owner who is a legal permanent resident and had her green card in her pocket.

When she asked through sobs why they didn't believe her, one masked agent replied: “Because they lie all the time.”

Video + interview with her and her daughter:

D.C. Police Commander Who Shot Man At Wharf Is Known For Aggressive Tactics | DCist A 23-year-old man was shot by an off-duty MPD officer at the Wharf.

featuring a DC cop whose prior bad behavior was only ever covered by a local outlet (RIP and follow @51st.news!) dcist.com/story/22/07/...

So let me get this straight ...

1. US bombs Iran
2. Oil price goes up a bit, benefitting Russia's petrostate
3. Russia gives Iran targeting info
4. Oil price shoots WAY up
5. US unsanctions Russian oil

the world's wealthiest and most powerful democracy, *the* global leader for a century and close enough to its 250th birthday to order the cake, teeters on the precipice thanks to two or three hundred of the stupidest, laziest, most transparently corrupt and malignant people imaginable

And it's not like emergency shelters are any less restrictive over movement etc. for people seeking help there

So if you get off on thinking about homeless being ill-treated in the county lockup, good news?
