He should be like Jimmy Carter and start building them homes himself, by hand. /s

RCS stands for Rich Communications Suite. Its a standard developed by google to make texting more feature rich like dedicated messaging apps like WhatsApp or Telegram. Pretty much any stock android app uses it these days. If you want to know more here's a pretty good explanation of it. https://www.androidcentral.com/what-rcs-and-why-it-important-android

You could have answered them in the time it took you to write that comment.

Just... why? It's like you want to be an asshole.

Public service announcement that this poster is a literal Nazi.

Not really, even if you put aside the big orange idiot, our country is quite fucked.

Sadly they are not, the people that do it are the worst kind of asshole. They generally like to "roll coal" while passing electric or hybrid cars, covering them with soot. The spend thousands of dollars to be as obnoxious and wasteful as possible, all to spite "the liberals".

I really enjoyed this little tidbit "Pelham paced outside, holding a gun and yelling at police. He eventually went back inside and fired the gun several times. For their own safety, police left the property that night, and let Pelham sleep off his drinking." He shoots at police and they "let him sleep it off", any POC would be dead as a doornail if they so much as thought of the word gun in the presence of cops. But a white male insurrectionist can just sleep it off. This country is truly fucked.

NASAs budget in 2021 was $25b, but their economic output was $71.2b. NASA actually puts more into the economy than it takes to run. Between providing nearly 340,000 jobs and leasing patents on materials and technology developed in house, NASA more than pays their own way. Not to mention all the advancements in material science, medical technology, and engineering that they provide. NASA is well worth the investment we put into it, and IMO deserves much more.

About time Ford is held accountable for their dogshit engines, although investigations should have started in the early 2000s. The Ford triton v8s of the late 90s and 00s were prone to blowing sparkplugs out of their cylinder heads (taking all the threads with them) so often that parts stores advertised the repair kits prominently. Ford never recalled a single engine for the problem and faced no repercussions.

Why do they need to use fresh water to fill the locks? I get that pumping salt water may come with a bit more maintenance but it just seems like a waste to use all that fresh water.

I'm honestly surprised that he lasted this long

As little sympathy as I normally hold for any Jan 6 rioters, it is downright cruel to house her in a male prison. From what I've been able to suss out, she has been transitioned since at least 2004 when she did her legal name change. This is a person who has fully transitioned and been living as a woman for nearly 2 decades. Even though she is a traitorous piece of crap she deserves fair punishment under the law. To me, being a woman put into a male prison population should be considered cruel and unusual.
