Go ahead and call the mechanic to schedule that transmission fluid change. Don’t let him rip you off with a flush, though. All you need is a drain and fill.

I asked it if I should push my car there. It’s a 2012 Buck Shasta.

It’s not feasible to push a car to the car wash, especially one like a 2012 Buick Shasta, which typically weighs around 3,500 to 4,000 pounds (approximately 1,590 to 1,810 kg). Pushing such a heavy vehicle is impractical and could lead to injury.

I mean, fair, but if you know cars, you know a 2012 Buck Shasta isn’t a real car. Guess I’ll have to tow it there with my 2014 Dixon Ticonderoga.

E: I just realized it corrected Buck to Buick lmao

Thank you! :)

My doctor even asked what my secret was. I said I cut down on the boredom eating. Now I just boredom “tend to shit around the house.” Seriously, I might clean or cut the lawn wrench on the cars to kill time. It feels good to get moving again.

I have the opposite problem. I think about food nearly all the time. It’s what got me up to 295 lbs.

I’m down to 260 today. Still got a long way to go, but I’m getting there. Getting medicated makes me feel so much more in control of my impulses. One of them being the impulse to eat all the time. Now, I don’t feel hungry nearly as often, and if I think about food, I consider whether I feel hungry, and if I don’t, I don’t eat.

“It costs $400,000 to fire this weapon…for twelve seconds.”

God, have I ever fucking been there. The worst feeling is when you think you’re getting things done…then it hits you that the last two hours of your life were a complete waste, and you weren’t even having fun while doing it.

Disassociation is the soundtrack of my childhood! Can’t get hurt if I’m watching someone else be abused, even if that someone else is me!

~yes I’ve been to therapy and working through disassociation is still a daily struggle thx~

They are, but I also set reminders on my work computer and my personal laptop. My laptop has my music on it so it sends sounds through my headphones. And my work computer pops a reminder box up

I’ve also got six reminders a day to check my email every 90 minutes. Otherwise, I’ll go several days without checking it.

Thank you! :)

I was already a no show for them two weeks ago. I really didn’t want to miss this one lol

Ireland disliked that.

The only thing getting between me and the task is Wikipedia article on metallurgy in pre-Colombian Mesoamerica.

The crack pipe is a wonderful touch.

I don’t know if this is an ADHD thing or just not liking being told what to do (perhaps some of Column A, little of Column B), but god did I hate reading when I was made to in school. I’ll spend hours reading Wikipedia articles on some niche shit. I’ve spent plenty of time reading books I liked on my own time. But meeting my Accelerated Reader points goals was always a slog, and I’ve grown to really resent the system.

One time, my brother and I were building a new rig for him. After spending an hour putting the thing together, it wouldn’t boot. Like, push the power switch and NOTHING happened. We called his buddy who’s a real wizard with computers. His first question was, “Did you try reseating all the power connectors on the board?” And that’s right when we discovered we didn’t connect the power for the CPU.

Utilities could (and should) have started planning for this years ago

I agree, but I have had the idea for a while that power companies are in bed with big oil. Sure, they sell a lot of gas to us for our cars, but they sell A LOT more fuel to utility companies. Makes sense that they prioritize staying in business over anything else. As we move to electric cars, it’s like the most unsurprising thing that oil companies would focus on power companies, especially since power companies almost always operate monopolistically.

Station wagons rock. My wife is an SUV type. I told her that her style is trash. If they ever bring back the Camry or Accord wagon, I’m so buying one.

Done.

The link provided with the title of the post isn’t necessary to click. I only put it there to provide a little bit of legitimacy to the post. It’s the NYT’s own domain hosting a page that provides the onion service and some info about it.

If you have Tor installed on your machine, you can copy/paste the onion at the end of the post into Tor’s address bar once you’re connected to Tor. This should navigate directly to the NYT’s front page. Note, if you’re part of the uninitiated, you must use Tor to navigate to the link. You shouldn’t see the page I linked with the post.

Even on Tor, if you use the clear web site provided in the link, yes, you will see the box asking for a subscription. You can click the x to get rid of it.

I hope this helps out.

I did not know this. I never looked into it, mostly because the BBC isn’t kept behind a paywall lol Makes sense, though.
