How soon? The guidelines for renewal are a year before it expires, but I think they might have still counted mine as a year when it was like, 1 year and 350 days or something like that. Rounding down, basically.

Note: dogs only! Permethrin is toxic to cats.

It’s definitely an understandable way to feel after a bad accident. It’s really fortunate nobody was hurt! You’re a young and inexperienced driver, there’s a reason as a group y’all cost more to insure, lol. So it’s definitely something that’s common, and plenty more people (like me) have only avoided similar accidents through dumb luck.

Is giving up a car completely something that’s feasible for your location and lifestyle? Will you be able to get to work, meet with friends, and engage with your hobbies while relying on public transit, a bike, etc? If you can answer yes to all those questions, then giving up driving regularly might be feasible for you. If you can’t, then unfortunately you will have to either drive or rely on other people to drive you.

If it’s not practical to give up driving, I would really encourage you to take a defensive driving class. It will help you internalize the things you can be doing to avoid accidents before they happen. And if you do give up driving, keep your license renewed! It’s a total pain in the ass to get a license a second time, and there are times it’s practical to have one.

Personally I would not want to go to the leftist protest when a dude assassinating politicians is being hunted by the cops. If they’re killing Democrats, killing protestors probably is not even a leap in their mind.

If not wanting to be gunned down in public by some brain poisoned spree shooter that’s targeting Democrats makes me a fake leftist or whatever I’ll take it.

I didn’t say I agreed with either of those groups of trans people. They just exist, and flattening trans people as a whole into a one dimensional caricature to frame yourself as a victim is crass any time, doubly so during Pride month.

If you’re going to make broad generalizations about every trans person like that, I mean, maybe. There are trans people that read HP and trans people that don’t GAF.

If you mean this about any Christmas, seasonal, 4th of July, Halloween, Easter, etc events… sure. But taking out just the Pride event is targeted.

I think a lot of body language analysis is vibes based BS, but sometimes the vibes sure are vibin’.

It’s like water sanitation. Mixing 100 liters of tainted water with 1 liter of clean water doesn’t give you 101 liters of clean water. It doesn’t even give you 100 liters of dirty water and 1 liter of clean water, it gives you 101 liters of dirty water. That’s why ACAB.

I thought this had to be an onion headline at first, but didn’t he also do this during his first presidency? I seem to remember something about him tearing up a garden.

Must love the flavor of earwax 😂

Get a couple of analog meat thermometers, you don’t want the worms in them bad boys.

May every raid these fucks try to do be in the afternoon heat in full gear, with a raging hangover.

If they’re high quality editors who consistently put out a lot of edits then yeah, it is meaningful and insightful. Wikipedia exists because of them and only them. If most feel like they do and stop doing all this maintenance for free, then Wikipedia becomes a graffiti wall/ad space and not an encyclopedia.

Thinking the immediate disgust of the people doing all the work for you for free is meaningless is the best way to nose dive.

Also, you literally had to scroll past a very long and insightful comment to get to that.

It also demonstrates how much AI companies mislead the public on what their products can do. If a guy is selling lawnmowers that actually just generate grass clippings without mowing the lawn, you’re not an idiot for thinking it was going to mow grass.

Man, I’m tired of reliving the Dubya years.

Something about seeing some of the beautiful blooming jacaranda trees that are everywhere in LA in this picture really got me :(

I’ve at least gotten better at not knocking the whole damn glass everywhere.

I can’t qwhite put my finger on what the difference is 🤔

California is full of people who are Mexican immigrants and people who have lived here since it was Mexico. ‘Stop waving Mexican flags after Mexican Americans and Latinos in general were kidnapped off the street’ is stupid and every minute spent focusing on making protestors protest in a way which will satisfy everyone—which, what do you know, just happens to be a fool’s errand that will result in support from nobody—is a minute you could have been telling ICE and the LAPD to fuck off instead.
