You’re thinking of an osteopath, an opthalmologist fixes people’s teeth.

Renault have created an absolute gem with the new 5, looks good, drives good, reasonably cheap (relatively speaking) even has a good hot hatch option with the Alpine version.

I read an interesting article that quoted the designer on the new 5, basically electric vehicles open up a lot of possibilities when it comes to design as well which were taken away due to safety requirements on the cars, hopefully gonna get a lot more fun electrics.

Seems kinda weird tbh, like setting aside the morals of it for a sec, let’s assume it’s a purely business decision. Are they seriously so confident Trump’s policies are going to persist beyond the next 2.5 years that they’re scrapping everything EV? (I mean this as a genuine question)

Are they not supposed to report news?

As a cis male I can assure you that my stonking great honkeratonkeradoos have not heralded a significant increase in the number of women approaching me for reasons of attractiveness.

In what sense have they given up on the US re: tech?

Counterpoint, Chinese brick manufacturers will sell you the appropriate bricks for less than $60

If I remember correctly flash was never cheap, everyone just bootlegged it.

Honestly he’d do it for free if you’re willing to sit and listen to him about moths.

Strong Demolition Man vibes to this.

Motherfucker doesn’t know how to use a sledgehammer. Kills the momentum every single stroke.

I quite literally know a guy.

I kinda wonder if it’s panic at some point. Like they make a fuck up and then start going “maybe this will fix it, maybe this will fix it” and it’s just getting progressively worse but they can’t stop themselves.

I see this with my kids sometimes, without the panic, they see that they’ve messed up a line when painting and they try to fix it but they do the same thing just slightly over, rinse repeat until a 7mm line is now 30mm thick.

It’s exactly the same.

It’ll collapse or it won’t collapse or we’ll do something different, same as we always have. Pining for a rose tinted snapshot of 20 years ago or 30 years ago won’t make things better. It’s the same bullshit nostalgia fetishism the far right have for the 50s or 60s or whatever. Some things are worse, a lot of things are a lot better. All we can really do is support those we can support and make things better where we can.

Okay?

You’re saying things were better 20 years ago because there was false hope? By that logic 2020 must’ve been the best year ever because CO2 emissions actually dropped.

You’re kidding yourself, things may have seemed better 20 years ago but the economy was being bolstered by sub prime mortgage nonsense, it collapsed 2 years later and we’ve not had good times since.

Yeah, well, fuck you for being a reasonable person.
