They aren’t for safety…they are totally for revenue.

With regards to school zones, specifically, if they cared about safety, they would be putting in mechanisms to slow traffic naturally. Raised crosswalks. Rotaries. Narrower lanes. Crossing guards.

They don’t put any of those in.

A couple towns over from me, they just put a brand new highschool right on the intersection of two major state highways, about 1/4 mile from the interstate. If they cared about the kids, they’ve put the school in a less busy area to begin with.

But instead, they demo’d an old pedestrian bridge that was keeping kids off the road for crossing, and set up a speed cam and issuing tickets in the spring before the school even opened.

And of course the school zone creates a bottleneck for people exiting the highway in rush hour, with ripple effects well down the freeway.

Fucking assholes.

But at least Theil gets paid. Most of the money doesn’t even go back to the city. What a ducking ripoff.

HaVe YoU sEeN tHe DoW?!?!

There was this shady used car dealer near me, not long ago…had an A-Frame sign out in front. It read “Your Approved!”

I always thought that was funny, and I feel like they may have been called out on it, because after a couple of months they replaced it with a new sign, which read “Everyones Approved!”

Mind you, these were printed signs. They paid money for this.

What is this? A wilipedia for ants? How can we be expected to teach children to learn how to read… if they can’t even see the text? The font has to be at least… three times bigger than this!

I’ve had a taillight out for months but every time I drive past a cop I just gun it and gtfo. Sometimes they chase but damnit I don’t have time to be messing around with a taillight.

They should do a continuation of the first two films, where Kevin is the dad who forgets his kids.

And gets arrested as soon as their plane touches the ground.

Seriously how the fuck do you get on a plane without your kid?

Vyvanse (for ADHD and BED) plus Wegovy (for weight loss).

I no longer eat and I have laser focus.

Man I would be so impatient and shifty. Like c’mon, let’s get a move on, we don’t have all day!

Or Uranus.

How old are your girls?

Mine are just turning two and it’s my first flock…I’d gotten some soft-shell eggs lately (which are surprisingly durable), but that’s about it.

Game respects game. They can spot a poser a mile away.

Every time I do, it makes me laugh.

This cartoon reminds me of Terry from Pixar’s Soul and I don’t know why.

The ai that drew this needs to touch grass.

I thought all Germans were Dutch but not all Dutch were Germans. Was I way off?

Ok now I’m more confused about what’s Dutch vs. what’s German than I was about what’s British vs. what’s English. Or even what’s a turtle, if most languages call them tortoises.

I read this while I’m sitting, hunched over, on an ice pack, at physical therapy for sciatica.

Thank you for the reminder.

Pulled up my phone and seriously thought this was a picture of me from like 15 years ago. Then I realized how common the look is among this industry.

Reminds me of a time a couple years ago when I took a brewery tour around Boston. Every. Single. Guy. Including myself and the driver/tourguide…looked exactly like this guy, with a beer gut and a plaid shirt.

I think (and IANA astrophysicist) that they are saying because of the density of the sun, the forces of gravity are so strong at the core, that time dilation occurs, making time at the core pass more slowly than time at the surface. Over billions of years of existence, that adds up.
