Huh. Until right now, I thought rabbit and hare were synonyms.
When I saw my first European Hare, I noted how not-cute and cuddly it looked… and thought to call them “hares” to denote to myself that they were not the cute rabbits I was familiar with. But now I feel dumb because that’s literally what it is.

I was truly shocked at how important they are to the prairies as a keystone species.

Yeah, he’s a felon now but that didn’t have any consequence.
The Democrats, if they wanted, could organize something large like when Jon Stewart and Colbert led that restore sanity rally. Ultimately didn’t do anything but at least it would be an actual fucking display of political action. And I know that this isn’t what actually needs to be done, but feels like a “realistic” goal for the Democrats.

The concept is cool. The choreography I feel could have been better, comparing with other halftime shows. Still a better than usual show, given it’s Kendrick and not some country singer.

Alpha-Tycoons is actually his son’s name
I’m a bit confused how people actually feel about Michael Hudson. Can’t tell if he’s loved or hated. He has made undeniable contributions, though.
All parties involved engaged in free association, pursuant to the terms and conditions visible in fine print on the back of their tickets. As free individuals, they chose to violate said terms. Fuck around and find out!
Capitalism replaces direct, personal exploitation with indirect, impersonal exploitation. It transfers all wrongs into an abstract structural logic. It is at once the most obfuscated and difficult to understand, yet the most efficient at supporting a non working minority class at the expense of everyone else.
The only way out of this is to organize a society upon non-exploitative relations of production. A non-vile system of government can only result from that real basis, not the other way around.
quarrk [he/him]@hexbear.netto news@hexbear.net•A study says the Cybertruck is 17x more dangerous than the Pinto which was a firetrap. [See body text]English8·3 months agogas tank behind the rear bumper, so getting rear-ended badly enough could cause a fireball
The 1993-2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee had the same issue, with higher fatality rate per fire crash
On October 2, 2009, the Center for Auto Safety filed a safety defect petition for the recall of all 1993–04 Jeep Grand Cherokees with the fuel tank located behind the rear axle. At the time of the petition, CAS had identified 172 fatal fire crashes with 254 fatalities in the FARS file from calendar year 1992 through 2008. CAS identified 44 fire crashes with 64 deaths where fire was the most harmful event. In comparison, NHTSA reported a total of 38 fire crashes with 26 fatalities when it recalled the Ford Pinto.
I believe the recall fix was to install a trailer hitch that would deform the tank in such a way that it was less likely to cause a fire.
Yea, I just open the comment in browser if I need to. Easier than googling the image and pasting it in.
