You don’t think he checked out Vances before choosing him?

It was definitely part racism.
The Three-fifths Compromise was an agreement reached during the 1787 United States Constitutional Convention over the inclusion of slavesin a state's total population. This count would determine: the number of seatsin the House of Representatives; the number of electoral votes each state would be allocated; and how much money the states would pay in taxes. Slave holding states wanted their entire population to be counted to determine the number of Representatives those states could elect and send to Congress. Free states wanted to exclude the counting of slave populations in slave states, since those slaves had no voting rights. A compromise was struck to resolve this impasse.
Emphasis mine, but the electoral college was originally disproportionate for more than one reason.

Yeah I thought it was corporate raiding and massive leverage that killed them. Like most success name brands that made it to the 80s.
Bain Capital was well known for that kind of bullshit.

I would thing the plastic lining in that container would probably be high on the bonding list, but I haven’t taken a chemistry class in 24 years.

Also wouldn’t be surprised if a standard DGI drone would be perceived as military grade compared to their equipment.

It’s been really nice weather for a bike ride this fall where I live. Would be even better to get paid while doing it. Just stop for a few moments and cruise slowly by each house between neighborhood rides.

My ballot has one checkbox for Trump AND Vance. And another checkbox for Harris and Walz.
It would appear to be a vote for a joint ticket, and probably realistically mean a vote for Trump would elect him, then they would inaugurate the little shitstain VP as the president. Since votes would be for both candidates (P & VP).
I like the wishful thinking though.

It doesn’t smell like pee. It makes your pee smell like sulfur. But it either doesn’t for some people, or they can’t smell it when it does.

My attitude has definitely evolved and imo improved in the decades between 20s and 40s.
Lots of events and just time can contribute to it. But if you’ve joined a community that’s telling you it can’t get better, you might not be able to work on making it better, or even end up in situations that might change you for the better.

Chives grow like weeds and whenever you need some just go out in the yard with scissors and give them a haircut. They grow back in a week or two, unless they’re under a foot or two of snow 6 months of the year. Which is where my farming desires end.

Saudi Arabia? That’s where most of them came from.
I agree that the West fucked up the Middle East ( though the Soviets didn’t help either).

A specific event in 2001 first triggered the growth, then a couple of jackass presidents made it worse.

That’s all hand painted, no vinyl wraps here!
Still not sure why it was right hand drive though. Side rear view in comments.
“Testarossa” vent sticker detail in comments. Never liked the 3 spoke wheels at the time, but kinda fun to see nowadays.
Had the perfect vanity plate too! I’ll post a couple more pics in comments.
It’s a 1991 VW Multivan so it came with a poptop, and a cabinet in the back (so it has a weird L shaped downstairs bed), but no kitchen, just seating for 8 with two backwards facing jump seats. It is very much 1980s technology (especially the convoluted ignition and injection system that still managed to act like a carburetor on cold starts). Everyone who approaches it at gas stations and parking lots always asks what year it is, then they look confused when it starts with a 9.
