Love it when that Friday paycheck hits!

So is this the REAL reason they're forced to sell off Teslas from the White House driveway now?

That was just to keep the self-parody skills sharp. You know before this is all over they'll be torching each other's cars for free (and claiming the insurance).

Not that i would want to own one but you're right its one way to get rid of them. Resale is pretty pitiful

I'm starting to feel like an alarming number of people think that one poem goes,

"First they came for the Communists.
Then they were satisfied.
And everyone lived happily ever after"

That first pic is a really interesting juxtaposition (sp?) between what was the standard mode of transport (Chevy pickup), and... whatever that is.

They really are ugly (and huge) in person. And considering its workload rating, etc. -- it really is a 'useless eater', in its own right. Or a compensation device (a la, Corvette). Take your pick.

Welp. Here I am, playing with these various 18650s, thanks to this new ... er, hobby.

Testing them in a good light (Convoy S21E), had it standing on its tailcap.

Noticed it's actually a pretty good way to see if there vapor left on something that's about beat. Thin vapor is very hard to see, to me, though it medicates, I guess. Exhale in the direction of the beam and it lets you know.

Technique on these things has to be learned; I was plagued with thin vapor in one machine, I about gave up. Anyways, try a flashlight.

I heard an idea that some Democrat should sponsor the "1776 Bill" raising the Federal minimum wage to $17.76 and dare Republicans to be against it.

"Why does JD Vance hate 1776?"

"Ted Cruz doesn't believe 1776 should be honored from sea to shining sea!"

elon: verb.
To shove more cash up someone's ass than they can physically tolerate. "Brad Schimel got elonned in Wisconsin yesterday and it wasn't pretty!"

What a special planet we live on where its small moon is at just the right distance to cover its sun. I find it really fascinating.
