Xaris posted:lol i was just about to post this. sad state of the left when fragile flying turbines have to do your dirty work for you and they aren't even class aware It's not dirty work so much as their own decadent, indulgent lifestyles catching up to them in a way that cannot be bought off or threatened like usual. Like when street racers end up slamming into a wall. It's not the same as if I were out there with a spike strip or a paintball gun at 2am waiting for them, the wall is just a wall, the racers own lifestyle catching up with him in a way pointing guns or getting their friends to intimidate people can't fix.

Av-Gas doesn't have to have lead in it, but the FAA hasn't mandated a change so it always will and apparently this is all fine. quote:FAA agreed to begin the search for an alternative fuel, although the agency acknowledged a hurdle to the process. “No market-driven reason exists to move to a replacement fuel due to the limited size of the avgas market, diminishing demand, the specialty nature of avgas, [and the] safety, liability and the investment expense involved in a comprehensive approval and deployment process.” Sorry, the rich people hobby, for rich people, is just too expensive to change, plus it'll take a long time, so why even bother?

SKULL.GIF posted:yet another reason to hate cars https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2020/dec/03/coho-salmon-pollution-car-tires-die-off quote:Samples taken from urban streams around Puget Sound, near Seattle, and subsequent laboratory work identified a substance called 6PPD, which is used as a preservative for car tires, as the toxic chemical responsible for killing the salmon. It’s currently unclear how it kills the fish but McIntyre said it was likely to be an “acute cardio-respiratory problem”.

Fewer cars? No, more death!quote:This summer, federal authorities gave permission for a cull of hundreds of sea lions along the Columbia River basin in a desperate attempt to save declining numbers of Chinook and sockeye salmon.

If you get stuck in a situation like that, don't forgot to keep your exhaust pipe clear of snow - you wouldn't want to be breathing the toxic fumes your car is producing!

https://twitter.com/mayonnaise_soup/status/1478334148808953875 thats right  same to you tim kaine, gently caress off you voted for cuts to infrastructure and rail and ur bitching about getting stuck in traffic miraculously for once in your life that barely passes as your only kind of accountability but you won't be self aware enough for it hope you suffer long and hard because the hours people have had to use to commute in perilous conditions doesn't even come close to your 1 day bitchfest

Ie if a kid was in that zone the driver wouldn't even know to brake. They would probably just hear a small thump.
