Goddamn Alberta. You’re taking away all the wrong lessons from US politics

My addition to your driving comment is to make sure you have the right tires on your vehicle and if you have a rear wheel drive vehicle, get rid of it and get an AWD one. And before someone jumps in and comments about how their Mustang does just fine in the snow, let me remind you that OP has no experience driving in snow, so no, a RWD car is crap for snow/ice compared to FWD or AWD.

As for the tires, I realize studded tires have their issues, but they are still the best winter tire for both snow and ice. Blizzaks and the like are good, but on glare ice with a thin layer of water on top, they just don’t cut it the way studded tires do.

The sticking only happens due to moisture on your skin. If your skin is dry enough it won’t stick. That’s why the tongue is the go-to dare for playground kids. Lots of moisture. If your skin is clammy from sweat or snow melt and the metal is cold enough then the moisture freezes to the metal and grips your skin

I almost added that part, but didn’t want some Musk stans to jump down my throat

I can almost guarantee there was at least one engineer who tried to explain why ditching LIDAR was a bad idea, and he ignored them.

The other side of this coin which drives me nuts is when the GOP representatives who vote against things like the Infrastructure Act then claim credit for the money and projects being done in their districts. Bitch, you can’t vote against something then take credit for it when it benefits you! Two faced fuckers, every single one of them

As someone from Alaska, I can say with absolute certainty that this is bullshit if we’re talking about the physical attractiveness of the residents. No way we should be this close to the top.

Skellige is nice, but I prefer Toussaint:

AC(and DAs)AB

He was white.

Whoosh

Some pundit had a catchy phrase for this. Trump can be lawless, but Kamala has to be flawless

Bear in mind, a lot of those houses with Trump or local GOP candidate signs are put there by the husband and while many wives will follow their husband’s political leanings, at least publicly, many more will vote for the candidate who supports women’s rights.

It’s simple math: Jewish voting block > Muslim voting block

Any excuse to impose their Christo fascist agenda and put their orange fuerer on the throne

When I was younger I’ve definitely made fun of friends who order “girly” drinks, and have in turn been made fun of when I do it. It’s pretty standard among males in my generation (X) and older. Usually happens when everyone else in your group is ordering “manly” drinks like beer or hard liquor.

It doesn’t even have to be something like a cosmopolitan, it could be a gin & tonic, or rum and coke. If they’re all drinking bourbon on the rocks and you order something even slightly less strong, you’re going to hear about it.

Then there’s the times where the first guy orders a beer, then the next guy has to trump him with a run and coke, then the next guy gets a whiskey on the rocks, so then it gets one upped with a whiskey neat. Next thing you know we’re smoking crack in the alley. Just kidding about that last one, but you get the idea. We thought we were being macho, but we were idiots in our early 20s, so shrug
