- Comment on Insuranace is a joke 6 hours ago:
You are probably too late as you have likely signed an agreement to take the money, but you could have sent those comparison vehicles to the insurance company as proof of value. Insurance companies hire appraisers (like Mitchell) to put a value on your car when it is a total loss … they work for the insurance company.
Also, you can (could have) attempt to dispute the total loss or having your car “totalled” and force a repair instead. The insurance company looks at a cost benefit analysis when it determines that it is cheaper to total your car. So they look at their own appraisal of your vehicle to determine if they should repair it or total it.
Every state in the US gas laws regarding this cost benefit analysis, you DO NOT legally have to take a “low ball” offer … but the whole system is rigged on the “neutral” total loss appraiser keeping the numbers low and also making sure appraisal numbers fall in line with KBB and the like.
Solution: Get your own local comparison vehicles and ask to see theirs. Request a specialty appraisal if they didn’t pull comp vehicles. Make sure the comps are LOCAL, if the use comps from other states they can find abberant vehicle prices.
- Comment on Why does the GOP think “ANTIFA” is bad? 1 day ago:
There isn’t any trolling. Anyone with half a brain knows that the MAGA cult leaders pick a target scapegoat … be it “Antifa”, transgenders, or Hispanics, and then sounds the War cry to keep the idiots marching the way they want. There is no way someone with a minimum of a two year degree doesnt realize this.

No, they are a server now. If an ex history teacher has to ask this then server was likely a good career move.

It really should have been. The “conservatives” are not religious or conservative, they are disgusting. The “conservative” republican party is way WAY too liberal for my tastes. We should start calling republicans the “libs”, because they are.

Not real, but not exactly “fake”.

- Comment on Google is blocking AI searches for Trump and dementia 1 week ago:
Fucking confirmed.
It will not even autofill the last letter of “Trump dementia” in the search bar.
This is next level dystopian.

The weird ass dictator countries let you wear the medals of your ancestors … all of them.
Did great grandpa get a medal for genocide? Awesome, pin it on.
This is why they have medals going down their pants legs.

You are the construct of a million cells, an evolutionary “trick” that allows all the pieces to act as one. Your task is to percieve your environment and survive in it.

You would put twice the carbon into the atmosphere by burning the fuel to get it there.
Ok, probably not twice … but you get the idea.

Wait until OP hears about the evils of cardboard recycling, I drive by daily and see the towering eternal flame of methane. Sadly methane is sneaky and not all of it gets burned.

Go play CoH … the EMU is a perfect retail copy of the game.
- Comment on facebook ai 2 weeks ago:
Ok. Every accusation is a confession with the Republicans. Here me out. They scream about gays and then get caught in an airport bathroom being gay. They scream about Democratic child trafficking rings … then there is Trump and Epstien island. The Republicans have a nearly perfect history of accusing the other side of doing things that they get caught doing.
So when they say “they” (the democrats) are eating babies …

Quit being dumb. It didn’t enter widespread usage until the 1950s.
People from the 1800s and late 1900s had heroine cough syrup and cocaine Coca Cola. Paracetamol and phenacetin had extremely limited usage … something about destroying body organs.
Bots are gonna bot.
- Comment on YSK the basic techniques for "deprogramming" people who you think are in a cult 2 weeks ago:
Fuck that. Call them stupid as fuck and tell them to get a grip on reality. Obsessive dipshits are going to obsess … make sure they know that’s what they are doing.
If they are too stupid to snap out of it then write them off. I have had three red hat cultist relatives. One switched completely, one left politics, and one no longer really matters in my mind.

Tylenol was invented after autism was discovered. This is fucking stupid.

Greed has been allowed as common practice in our moral system for quite some time, but they doubled down on that “sin” to see what they could get away with. They could get away with a lot, so they went for lust to be made commonplace. As long as it was man-woman (or the occasional under aged girl if you were a friend of Epstien) that was no problem for US morals.
I consider myself a liberal, but Im not liberal enough for the disgusting shit the “conservative” party allows. It’s only going to get worse.
