Finished installing a 3.5" lift on my truck - it goes in for an alignment Tuesday, and then it’ll be ready to drive!

This has freed me to start working on my car again - I had pulled the transmission to replace the clutch, upgrade the synchros, and install a limited-slip front differential. That’s going back in, and I also installed upgraded coilovers. Probably have at least a few more weekends of work there to get the car back on the road, but I’m super excited to have two working vehicles on the horizon. The car has been down since around Christmas.

“Hey Strongbad - check out my creepy pants!”

DELETED / DELORTED

Just because modern ‘conservatism’ is practically defined by its incompetence, doesn’t mean it hasn’t been racking up win after win after win. They are relentless, fueled by fanatical religious views, a sense of entitlement to take any step necessary to achieve their goals, and pure hatred of anyone that attempts to stand in their way or even moderate their views.

Their hatred is infectious, and there are unending waves of fools ready to sacrifice themselves for what they see as a holy war. Don’t think for a second that Project 2025 isn’t incredibly dangerous, even if Project Heritage has understated offices.

Also US, and largely agree, but I would move Hardee’s/ Carl’s Jr. Down to bottom tier. That’s also where I’d put Jack in the Box. I’d put both In-n-Out and Whataburger as mid tier - I think both are VASTLY overrated.

Though In-n-Out is owned by a Christian Nationalist that’s hell-bent on turning America into (more of) a fascist oligarchy and openly using their wealth to destroy democracy, so they’re on my boycott list, along with Chick-fil-A.

There’s no karma to be had here, this is the end game. The Republicans have been working to dismantle the government for decades. Every piece that can be sold off to private enterprise will, regulation will be gutted, and consequences be damned.

The fall of the US is now inevitable. There is no future for anyone here that isn’t already rich. Leave if you can.

But 90% tax means that $10MM becomes $1MM.
