When you read, verbatim, what Trump actually says, it really highlights how dim he is

Rarely finishing a sentence/train of thought

Musk is the same

I wonder if he knew he'd say that before he heard himself saying it?

Since I'm no longer going to NYC in November (after doing in my ankle last week, I'm not convinced I'll be able to walk around well enough), I can finally post in this thread without fear of immigration not letting me in.

What a fucking shitshow. Trumps' approval rating was down at -39 yesterday ...

It's just a constant string of crazy isn't it

Saw that he's apparently mulling over knocking down the Kennedy Center?

"If I can't play in taking my ball and going home"

With all the tech and simulation that can be done now, how can it take until race weekend before people realise there's no overtaking opportunities?!

I've not tried Saga yet, good call, they didn't figure in the results from CTM so maybe they just don't play that game

I wondered about contacting Admiral (although the automated website "Is your quote too expensive" thing says that calling won't help as a person has no more discretion)

And the ...

It's that time again, and Admiral is quoting me £650 (basically the same as last year)

Compare the Market is showing the AA as £360 though!

I've checked cover, legal, courtesy car, excess etc and the AA is a match or better for my current policy with Admiral

Am I missing something?!

How come the ...

Here's an excellent article I read about the 17 minutes between the first and second planes striking the World Trade Centre. The forgotten period where we didn't yet understand what was happening and what would be the consequences.

This. And he somehow still has a 38% approval. More than a third of the country looks at all this stuff and goes “yep, top bloke, nice work”


The bit that's hard for us to get our heads round is just *how* much some of the relative moderates *hate* the democrats/government in general. Fox News ...

For balance though, it's not just Trump

From the same BBC article..

For instance, Democrats in Georgia promised $2,000 relief payments if their party took control of the Senate at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Yes, very cool to see Vettel screaming around monza in a Ferrari.

Race was exciting, but still feels like the cars are running over the boost arrows on the track like Mario kart rather than absolute skill.

Other than Antonelli who surely has to take the title this year unless Merc totally ...

Never mind that, no photos on a trip like that?

Funnily enough, I didn't take any photos of the car on this trip - I was having too much fun driving

We did our third roadtrip through France (in as many years) in the Boxster in August

This time down to the Alps (little place called Les Gets where my sister used to live c1998-2001)

Overnight ferry from Newhaven to Dieppe then a one-hit drive down to the Alps - a long drive, but on quiet roads ...

This

A Cybercab has a 123kwh battery pack

A quick Google search indicates that a domestic battery of that capacity could cost between $100-200k

Can someone just shoot the cunt please?

She ain't nobody's fool

I hadn’t appreciated that the BBC aren’t allowed to settle legal matters out of court…. hence Mr Trumps usual tactics can’t work - he either drops the case, or it needs to be tried.



Kind of...

The out-of-court settlement was a five-figure sum and was paid by BBC Studios, meaning the funds ...
