09.08.2025 18:13 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Just put some fuckin medians with trees on em in the middle and narrow the lanes. Maybe make the lanes zig zag a little bit instead of being perfectly straight.

09.08.2025 18:09 โ ๐ 2 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Just start narrowing the roads/putting obstacles closer to the roadway.
People *will* slow down.
You can even have the obstacles be things like trees that give shade!
If you adjust the road to what you want the limit to be, itโs far more effective than trying to adjust the car.
Also for the record, the couple didnโt start having sex until like 15 minutes after my coworker and I started talking outside. So they knew we were there ๐

โOkay I have to go home because if I stay here any longer Iโm gonna wait for them to finishโ
I hope sheโs doing well, she was a rad coworker ๐
Lmao this reminds me of a time when I was talking to a coworker outside after work.
It was a nice warm summer night (meaning peopleโs windows were open) and we heard some people having clearly great sex in a house.
Water has two critical attributes
1: itโs not flammable (duh)
2: itโs not compressible. Engines are basically big air pumps. They work by compressing a mixture of fuel and air and then igniting it.
What happens when you try to compress a non compressible liquid
Hydro-lock.
Fuel pumps have a big filter on the bottom of them specifically so that any sediment or anything DOESNT get sucked up into your fuel lines and clog them!
You wanna know what you can put into a gas tank to make the vehicle not run?
Water. Just water.
Saw a post today claiming you could disable an ICE vehicle by putting a ping pong ball in the gas tank.
Now look, I donโt expect everyone to be an expert in everything.
But I swear to Christ people gotta stop parroting useless info.
Hell yeah

The text reads โwait, itโs all 924s?โ, implying all of those cars have the same design language as the Porsche 924
Cars of -era- have always all looked the same. You just liked the design language of -era- more than todayโs.

(I am aware he had more roles than Chernobyl and Mad Men)
Heโs not doing well. I see the cracks starting to widen all across the Republican Party and at least some of their base.

I spend most of my day driving alone in a truck that I can air out and clean first, I spend at most 30 minutes with customers, outside and myself wearing a kn95, then itโs back into the truck.
Hell yeah nice.
07.08.2025 06:51 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0The NRR has a sort of suspension seat but itโs not an air seat, and 100psi tires really do beat you up.
Plus like, I have to do the truck speed limit, so Iโm 5-10 under the posted car speed limit so any long drive takes longer.
I drove 7+ hours today for work. It was a pretty good day but I do not have enough ass for the seat in the Isuzu NRR

I know following the OSINT grifters on Twitter made my anxiety about the Russia Ukraine war way worse at the start of it.
