Would totally pee out the window just saying
The castle is on the very edge of a terrible precipice. A stone falling from the window would fall a thousand feet without touching anything! As far as the eye can reach is a sea of green tree tops, with occasionally a deep rift where there is a chasm.
-Jonathan Harker, May 8
Now, remember that the Count was originally meant to be Austrian, and his castle to be in Styria, Austria.
Here's what the most famous castle in the region looks like:
I’m not the Devils advocate, but I do live next to the guy. His living situation is very toxic. Kind of explains his behavior tbh
You see silly weftest, by using a smaller car you’re putting yourself in an unsafe situation. It makes it safer for “people” outside of your car but have you considered: 1) they don’t matter 2) it’s morally reprehensible to care about others. By making it safer for them you are making it unsafe for yourself, an inherently unsafe dynamic. Therefore, the only truly safe thing is to make it deliriously unsafe outside of your car. To keep you safe.
What Do US Vehicle Regulators Have Against Tiny Cars?
Super-small urban vehicles have found a place in European and Asian cities. But in the US, federal and state rulemakers seem determined to keep minicars at bay.
it bears repeating that the cars Americans drive are the product of a very strict regulatory regime, there has not been a free market for road vehicles in our lifetimes.
in decent quality too!

You youngsters don’t remember a time when the onion was printed and offered free of charge in sidewalk kiosks. Those were the good ‘ol days. When you could feel the joke between your fingers. When you could roll up the joke into a little horn and go toot into your friends ear. We lived like barbarians, and by gum, we loved it.
*Puffs pipe. Sets self on fire*
Getting a print version of the Onion is a decision I'll never regret
Every one of the 12 "ads" in this version is insulting Musk
Obama and his stolen sand

Rightwing idiots when I tell them they don’t deserve to die in the gutter:
you have to be able to defend people who are receiving unjust treatment even if they annoy you even if you personally find them extremely annoying you still have to be able to stand up and say "well thats fucked up"

The old school tv show The Avengers (BBC not MCU) did this well. The main characters were a male/female duo. The guy was a fopish but brilliant spy and his bodyguard was an asskicking race car driver. And who played this asskicking super bitch?
hate when people think the only archetype possible for a male sidekick to a female protagonist is a soft boi and/or himbo. like the implication there is that the only reason a man would ever defer to a woman’s authority is if he was a bumbling idiot. love male supporting characters who are smart and strong and confident and can step up when necessary but still kind and humble enough to let someone else take the lead most of the time
Look how tiny its wheels are🥹. So very pedestrian friendly
40 years ago the future looked like this Nissan Com Com Concept, 1985. A design study for a "connected" delivery van using the best communications technology the mid-80s had to offer, presented at the 26th Tokyo Motor Show. There was a satellite navigation system and car phone as well as an on-board computer. the off-side front door slid forward to open though the driver's door was conventionally hinged. The idea was that deliveries could be centrally controlled with instructions sent to the driver while they were on the move, much like Amazon etc have been doing since the turn of the century
BLUE !!
Trump is now polling underwater on every single issue, including the economy and immigration. Do not let him claim he has a mandate or is all powerful. We are the majority — not Trump.
“I’m going princess mode” I say before becoming super needy of praise and adoration
I too took this at face value. Then I looked up Byzantium Security. It’s a fake company. This is likely a promotional shot for a tvshow/movie.
Youre unwittingly a shill for some corporate bullshit, fyi.
The 40’s gangster films have tons of great classics:
- pushing up daisies
- ventilated
- taking a trip to the bone yard
I personally like technical sounding language
Things you can stay instead of "k1lled", "murked" or "unalived":
involuntarily converted to room temperature
cancelled on a corporeal level
successfully transitioned into fertiliser
rendered permanently horizontal

Pet peeve: BUGS ARENT GONNA GET BIGGER JUST CAUSE OF GENES!
bugs don’t have lungs. The oxygen in the atmosphere permeates their tissue by means of holes in their body. It’s a passive system that is dependent on diffuse oxygen in the air. During the age of giant bugs there was more oxygen in the atmosphere. Simply put: More oxygen in the air —> more oxygen in the tissues—> larger bugs.
