They visit each others mansions so they can make sure they are still keeping up with the other billionaires.

I’ve seen so many HVAC repair trucks on the roads this week.

This drives me nuts with the news cycle. “The US won’t get involved in X”. The media shows how awful fighting/revolt/etc are in X. “Why won’t the US do something about the horror in X!?” The US gets involved and, of course, some civilians die. This is guaranteed in war. The media then goes “The US is awful for killing civilians in X!” The US pulls out of X. The media goes “Why has the US abandoned X!?”

After WW2 the US became addicted to being the world police and many other countries were happy to have the US cover the cost of their defense or income from hosting US bases. Selling arms is also big business and the DOD justifies it by saying that it keeps personnel and manufacturing lines for weapons running.

He is the white trash of presidents

Wait until they get kidney stones from being chronically dehydrated

Send in Newman, he can make a room full of muffin stumps disappear.

NC here and I haven’t found one this didn’t work on. Maybe the button is broken from people rage pushing it? :D

The 2nd button down on the right side of the screen mutes it. I always hit it when pumping gas.

It never stays pristine but the worst of it took decades to accumulate. We found over a dozen tires, a safe, a beer keg, a beaten up rowboat, tons of old clothes piled up at an old campsite and of course the ever present cans and plastic bottles. We also worked on removing invasives. As time went on most of the trash was what got carried by the streams feeding it from drains. There was one time I found a car had been dumped off of the bike path and set on fire.

Thanks for cleaning things up. It is very satisfying if a bit frustrating too. It is one of the few things in life where the result is obvious and clearly positive. I’m always picking trash up on hikes. Maybe the owner of the land would be willing to assist you by providing a place you can deposit the bags of trash and they could truck it out weekly or so. We did something similar with the state (it was public land) and had a storage shed with tools a local business let us use.

I worked on regular cleanups of a wetlands near my old apt and the bike path that ran by. We’d pull literally tons of crap out of there but over time it got less and less.

I remember the 70s-80s and the trash but that doesn’t excuse littering even less now.

If. Old bottles, pizza boxes, etc aren’t going to identify you.

What you do when no one is looking is your true character.

And you just know the second someone got hurt they’d turn around and sue you because you didn’t tell them not to do that. Even people who know better will cut corners “Ehhhh, I don’t need to find my safety glasses. I’m just grinding this part for a second…”

Then there are the situations where you think “Why the hell do I need a hard hat? I’m jut walking around with a clip board.” That is the day Steve loses his hammer off of the roof and it makes a 1 in a million bounce directly onto your skull and now you are in the hospital getting a hematoma drained off of your brain.

They also need to be reviewed on a regular basis. If the reason for the regulation is gone it should be dropped. I think every law and regulation should have a nonbinding statement describing the motivation behind it.

And lawsuits

Saw dust was also added to flour. Various heavy metals would be added to food to enhance their color.

Old saying “Fire and flight regulations are written in blood.” Food regulations are likely written in various excretions?

Size 3? You have peg legs.

I used to work with a guy from Syria who had US/Canadian citizenship. He said every time he crossed the border he budgeted in 3 extra hours while he was detained.
