Common convulsive movements for patients diagnosed with Boneitis.
Who says he actually goes to a real doctor? Probably sees some crystal therapy guru or something like that.
Not that the subreddit was enormously active, but would love to see more folks over here instead of reddit. Unfortunately I think a lot of that crowd is still stuck on Facebook too, so there’s that.
If this one got more activity, I could stop using Instagram completely (already dumped FB and Reddit).
Or - profits stay the same and products are just more expensive (way more likely scenario).
I dumped Adobe completely several years ago, and found that Pixelmator has been an excellent Photoshop replacement. It even now does vector images - used to use an app called Graphic for that (for an Illustrator replacement), but should now be able to do all of that from Pixelmator.
Is that Dr Ted Cruz, the real human doctor?

Yep - I was liking the F150 Lightning for several reasons but decided against it for 2 reasons:
- way too expensive (obviously)
- it’s huge - the F150 didn’t used to be that big but go sit in one and you’ll see what a behemoth it is. Didn’t want to drive something that massive.
Love to see it! Good time to post my recent Tesla story: family member passed away a year ago and I got their car - older Tesla Model S that was in mint condition and had free charging for life. So I had a free car and could essentially drive it for free (ignoring insurance). Lot of nice features on it, but was clear that Tesla doesn't do the basics of car building very well. Bit noisy, a rattle here and there, exterior trim pieces that are a little loose, and window seals that drip when you go through the car wash. Not even going to go into their software, which is pretty shitty. Basically a lot of things that look nice at first glance, but kinda janky when you look more closely. Nuts that that was a $100k car when purchased new - doesn't seem to fit with reality. Anywho, I listed it for a while on Craigslist because I wanted off of the Tesla rollercoaster (for loads of reasons - Elmo, future stability of Tesla which is unknown, and having the weight around my neck of a car that I might not ever be able to get rid of in the future). Played the Craigslist game for a little while and then decided because of the tariffs coming to just go the trade-in route. Went in and traded it for a Mach E, which so far, I'm liking. Seems like a better-made car all around, is just as fast as the Tesla, and has more bells and whistles for half the price. The Ford dealership was starting to look like a Tesla dealership - the salesman said that loads of people were doing the same thing I was, including him - he had one but still had a loan to pay off but he wanted to swap his as well. He said he didn't want my car but was willing to take the trade in to make the sale, so worked out for me. What was also great is that the Hands Off protest was happening the same day right in front of the dealership (Tesla was a block up), so we listened to the sweet sounds of shouts and car horns while we did paperwork. Good stuff.
Should also note that with the exception of the Cyberdumpster owners (probably beyond help), just remember that there are lots of Teslas on the road and each of those drivers have a different story. I'm all for civil disobedience (it's definitely needed right now), but many of those owners just aren't in a position to sell/burn/destroy/dump their Tesla. Cars are expensive, and now more than ever, we're probably going to need to drive them as long as possible to get our money's worth out of them. I was in a lucky situation with mine so I could get rid of it, but just have compassion for those who can't.
Which miles will the protests be stationed on?
How many times has he bragged about his attendance numbers? I believe by my count that would be zero.
