    The Fake News Depot

    Not when the Terms of Service (and Community Guidelines) are crafted so that whatever liberals do falls within the rules, and whatever conservatives do violate the rules. Twitter's Jack Dorsey got owned huge on that one on a Joe Rogan podcast by Tim Pool a while back, and finally had to admit...

    The Fake News Depot

    White men can't jump. Black men can't swim. The Left can't meme. Memes inspire libertarian thought, freedom of thought. That's a very dangerous thing to the Left. Instagram just purged 30 of the most popular meme accounts, all of them right-leaning, with a total of more than 40 million...

    Trucker pets!

    Lots of people out here with pets. A few shippers that won't allow you in with pets, but not that many. Craziest one I've ever seen is a guy in a Ford E-350 cargo van with 5 cats. The inside of the van looked like a cross between the inside of a cat lady's house, and the inside of a gypsy...

    The Trump Card...

    Remember when one of Trump's campaign promises was to not be politically correct? Promise kept.

    The Trump Card...

    A different judge, an Obama appointee in San Fran, issued a neener neener ruling in opposition to the DC judge. So the asylum rules are on hold. In any case, the Democrats are getting pretty sick and tired of all the Trump winning. Remember way back, a long time ago, when Trump said the...

    Apollo 11

    One of my 5 all-time favorite movies. The movie is remarkably faithful to the book, but I still recommend reading the book. It might have been The Right Stuff, but I think it was Carrying the Fire (been a while since I've read either), where a funny story was related from flight testing, and...

    Apollo 11

    I was born 21 days before Sputnik, so I really don't remember a time without space travel. I was transfixed by Mercury, Gemini and Apollo. I cannot recommend too highly Carrying the Fire, by Michael Collins.

    Indiana Closing 6 rest areas

    That creates a new problem. You now have to spend a really lot of money to give revenues to state governments that now goes to local governments, in order to cannibalize your exit location for the rest area location, and you have to staff and manage a second location. The relevant clause of...

    Indiana Closing 6 rest areas

    Makes sense to me, but the business owners at the exits pitch a fit.

    July 1 in Ohio the tax went up.

    Offsetting the cost of #VanLife

    Something else that should be mentioned... If the Gross Combined Weight Rating of the van and the trailer is more than 10,000 pounds, you're a Commercial Motor Vehicle. That means logging, scaling, medical card, the whole bit.

    Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

    There's a lot to unpack here. Oh, my goodness.

    The Trump Card...

    At least Biden a taking credit for the economy. :mask: I almost feel sorry for whenever succeeds Trump. They're gonna be boring. If it wasn't for Trump, almost none of the current Dem candidates would be boring, but all of them are.

    The Trump Card...

    I laughed when he said it. Figured he read "all ports" as" airports."

    The Trump Card...

    Trump tweeted a big thanks to Phantom Fireworks and that other guy in Youngstown for donating a bunch of fireworks for the big DC 4th of July celebration. Within a few minutes of the Tweet, someone called in a bomb threat to... the fireworks company. Yes, someone called in a bomb threat to...

    Betsy Ross Flag is Racist Now

    This has been the norm for a lot of years. Presidential Inaugurations. In the center of the current 50-stars flag. Next to it on either side is the version of the American flag when the president's home state was accepted into the Union. And on either far end is the flag made by that...

    June Load 1

    My uncle took going to jail really badly. He refused all offers of food and drink, spat and swore at anyone who came near him, and smeared the walls with his own feces. After that, we never played Monopoly with him again.
