If this weren’t nottheonion I wouldn’t believe it

“Oh wait you’re serious let me laugh harder” - Zelenskyy, pribably

Not with my exhaust

My car is either lugging along in 2nd gear or doing like 3500 rpm in first at 30 kph, so mine wouldn’t be any quieter.

I’ve been blocking ads for like 30 years. I see so little advertising I feel like an alien.

There are places in the US that, instead of banning giant trucks, are banning Kei trucks.

I hate this country.

I guess I’m really lamenting the death of the shitbox econo car.

If it were a democracy Satan would still end up in hell.

My parents had an original Prius and it was a weedy little car that made those two hippies really happy. If that was his only experience with electric cars I can see why he’d think that.

But the new ones are fucking rockets. I just don’t understand why they need all that. Can they make a cheaper one that’s got 300 horsepower?

I usually play as Victoria so I like to do themes. Like if there are a lot of other woman leaders I’ll do a Girl Power game and form alliances with them and kill all the men.

Or if there are a lot of colonizer countries I’ll do a reverse colonization playthrough and conquer them with the help of colonized nations.

Then there’s the genocides I’ve waged for the most sacred resource to the English: Tea.

Except I play Civ all the time but avoid power and responsibility like the plague.

Speaking of plague, adding a disease mechanic would be cool

I’d rather spend three days on a train than three hours in a plane.

Air travel can be cheap and terrible.

Whenever I exfoliate my feet I mutter “forbidden Parmesan” and chuckle to myself

I was thinking more

I would take a team of moderately-skilled, emotionally intelligent people over a team of expert jerks who like the smell of their own farts.

I wouldn’t want to work with a low-skilled team of anyone.

She talks to the customers so the engineers don’t have to.

She has people skills. She is good at dealing with people.

I also vaguely remember the quote you’re referencing and I think you got the gist of it.

The best programmers, sysadmins, and other techies I’ve worked with had humanities degrees. Being a STEMlord who can’t be nice or express yourself well in words will put you at a disadvantage in even the nerdiest of jobs.

Which is also a vector. Speed is a scalar.
