Padme: So they're going to cancel his defense contract, right?

I use a Kaweco Sport as my daily driver.

Bonus: Nobody ever "borrows" it at work because it confuses and terrifies them.

Maybe Canada, but the US is ruining them too

The legal problems he brought upon himself? By actively and blatantly criming? Boy that must suck for him.

OMG well that kills my dumb little joke then. I'm not deleting it, so hopefully other people who didn't know about this will find your reply.

I'm not sure if it's more awful because it's innately horrible or because it's that fn believable.

You know she watched the debate. And got more pleasure from that than anything he ever did, second only to getting a hush money check from him.

Can dimly remember what he looks like. Apparently he looks like someone's creepy uncle who was always doing sleight of hand tricks to wow the little kids

A badly done line cartoon that might look like Vin Diesel if you bought him on Temu

Kind of a fire hazard to have that many straw men in one place.

Against who? 24 year old registered Republicans who were never taught how to cope with the harsh reality of life?

Local/regional chains seem to stay more reasonable, but honestly, local restaurants in my area are almost cheaper than fast food. A typical combo meal seems to run around $10-15, and you can find lunch specials and weekly specials for $8-12.

The food is way better as well.

I could go to Arby's for a combo (roast beef sandwich, soda, and fries) and spend around $14. Or I can go to the sushi place half a mile away and pay $11 for their made-to-order bento box: teriyaki salmon filet, small salad, 3 gyoza, 4-piece Cali roll, and tasty rice. I haven't been to Arby's in years.

Electronic parts. There used to be several local shops and a Radio Shack where you could go in and just buy basic electronic components (capacitors, resistors, photocells, transistors, breadboards, potentiometers, you name it). They phased all of that out in favour of toys and trinkets before just folding.

Now I have to order on Mouser or Digikey and wait. Sure there's WAY more variety, but I miss being able to just run & grab something I might have forgotten (or, let's be honest, fried somehow).
