Technofrood , 3 hours ago in RFK Jr faces call for investigation into claim he chainsawed whale’s head off

I know the meme is Ted Cruz being the Zodiac killer, but are we sure it isn’t actually RFK Jr?

FlyingSquid , 2 hours ago

Wrong coast. But considering the family said that he likes to “study” things like whale skulls, I wouldn’t exactly be shocked if he had a human skull or two in his collection.

He likes to play among rotting carcasses… behind the bastards had a really interesting podcast about him.

This is exactly it. Reading that article is basically Republicans saying they know their views on abortion are unpopular, they just don’t care because they think everybody’s just wrong.

Fuck them.

We don’t pick our judges here in America, and they’re plenty partisan as it is. How much experience did ACB or Cannon have?

Something tells me this is just the complaints of rich people being mad that they might not be able to pick the judges themselves.

NebGilum , 1 hour ago in Drivers Hate The Tech In Their Cars

All 4runners still reigning supreme with chonky ass thicc boi buttons and dials. Give me Android auto capabilities on a small screen, backup camera, and rear parking sensors. That’s it.

My wife drives a 2023 loaded Kia Sportage. The thing is basically a smartphone on wheels. Giant dash screen with all the car controls buried in it, touch screen climate controls that double as touch screen audio/volume controls. If I want to change the AC temp I have to take my eyes off the road for a few seconds. Also a subscription service if you want to use any of the actual useful functions like remote start, remote climate control, remote door lock/unlock, sentry mode, etc. I hate where cars are at today.

Jakeroxs , 37 minutes ago

I have a Kia Niro and have a similarish gripe about the switching ac/media controls, but the media controls are also on the wheel so it’s not that bad if you leave it on the temp control mode mostly.

originalucifer , 1 hour ago in US Justice Department says Kentucky may be violating federal law for lack of mental health services

i feel so bad for these people in rural areas like the state of kentucky. under constant control via propaganda to their own detriment. against healthcare, against mental healthcare, against any modern job training. anything that would benefit them as human beings seems to be obfuscated into something to be voted against.

those poor people. slaves to conservatives.
