I think those short bed trucks are the absolute worst. If you genuinely need a truck, get one with a proper bed so you can use it for it's utilitarian purpose. If you've got a short ass bed, you don't need a truck.

Man, even the Trump "I did this" stickers will be too expensive

That is correct. The state legislatures generally (if not always) picked the senators, but due to huge state corruption, it was almost always political qui pro quo, and some states even going full terms without selecting sla sentaor. This led to the 17th amendment (which you'll here rednecks and/or white supremacists asposing, because states' rights.)

Edit to add: Wikipedia knows it better than I do.

I grew up I a predominantly white neighborhood in a very segregated city, and I heard people harping on riots and unrest in the blacker areas and how that was bad for their neighborhoods. It wasn't until I was older that I heard the argument that the buildings they were looting or burning weren't part of their community. If a large company put a store in their neighborhood and it got looted, it wasn't bad for their community became none of the success of that company was shared by the company - they were essentially just extracting wealth from the area. Some areas having already been flipping the board. We're just getting to the point that more are ready to say "fuck boardwalk!"

DonOLD Trump. I saw it once on here a few weeks ago and I can't not think of it every time.

Dumb or horribly self-loathing. Unfortunately, there are plenty parts of America that help instill that feeling.

I wouldn't imagine it'd play a role in reproducing though. It may help ones ability to live longer, but they have probably procreated long before tooth loss has become a major issue of well being or mortality.

Actually kinda really successful 👍 All 33 engines were firing, the hot staging was successful. On both the first and second stages, it looks like the automatic FTS (flight termination system) was triggered. That would happen if it veered too far off of it's approved flight path (don't need it coming down over a populated region.) The only thing that didn't happen that I was hopeful for was atmospheric re-entry - we really need to see how that heat shield works in practice.
