I've had so much luck with used appliances, the trick is to go to appliance shops that are able to do repairs.

We've gotten two different sets from two different used appliance stores. The first set lasted about 9 years and survived several moves. When they finally died we found another (refurbished) matching set, $400 at a used appliance store, they even took our old set away (which I'm sure and hope they refurb'd and sold again). We used them for about 4 months, when the washer suddenly stopped working. We called the place we got it from and they actually came out and repaired it for free due to a 6 month warranty we didn't even know about, they were super apologetic. It was a pretty positive experience.

We've been pretty lucky I guess. You might have to shop around a bit but you can definitely save a ton of money if you're willing to forgo bells and whistles.

So the reaction would be the same as when a piece of shit healthcare CEO got blue shelled?

A quiet murmur of approval and understanding, then silence?

For food, they said they would take money from your possessions to buy McDonald’s. No choice of what food, no choice of better food, no choice of when.

This is hilarious, I feel like there are better ways to show kids the horrors of imprisonment than telling them "you don't get to pick your value meal."

"Everything is fine!" they say as they stockpile supplies and build secret locations to hide.

People are getting used to the idea of Vehicles as A Service and it's a terrible fucking idea.

It's ruining cell phones and it'll ruin auto ownership.

That's the problem when people are born on 3rd base. They get to walk it in and think they hit a home run when really they just did what any normal person would've done. Someone else would probably even do it better.

Exactly this, I would've bought one eventually if he'd just shut up, a lot of would.

But why would I support an openly racist, fascist, fuckhead trying to buy his way into power? Toyota, Honda, Kia, and all the other corpos are plenty evil and have the manufacturing and support experience an auto maker needs.

The idea of a generic parts "libreauto" is cool. A frame/chassis designed to accept drop-in parts from other established manufacturers so you could part out wrecked cars and assemble them into your own frankencar.

The way the military straight up prey on HS kids naivete is pretty wild.

What a fucking jerkoff, billions of dollars at his disposal, he's probably got designers and renowned artists on speed dial...

...and the most creative he can get is "a shirt, but in a fun print!"

Any time someone says "I was banned for no reason!" there always turns out to be a reason.

Sure mods can be dicks but have you met most users?

So he hasn't confessed and you just believe what law enforcement and the media says?

Nah fuck that he's innocent.
