Ok but he did do that “guy who’s really into Walther Pistols and BMW’s for no particular reason -ASMR” campaign video

Wishing these guys a fun time traveling only to countries that didn’t sign the Rome Statute for the rest of their lives

I do think what they’re actually describing here is being lower middle class, which is something we stopped depicting on TV a long time ago.

Eh even if your cars (plural, this is America) are fully depreciated it’s not hard to get to $7k /year on gas, insurance and pretty basic maintenance. If one of them starts going downhill and needs a transmission or something you could spend that in a year

FSD enthusiasts looking for a third row I guess?

I really don’t get the people buying new Y’s. This is the most competitive EV segment and even the Tesla fans were unimpressed with the refresh

But my old colleagues (Engineers) don’t seem to have particularly different material lives than me (house, two cars, actually better holidays) and have way more security

That’s also relative to richer parts of Europe, Im not sure that holds if you’re Spanish, Italian or British

My experience is there’s a real tipping point here (I’d probably place it around $150k household income) where inequality starts working to your favor in the US, so like if you’re a doctor you’d be crazy to move to Europe but if you’re on the other side of that line you probably shouldn’t move to US

Im kind of half convinced that this is downstream of American tolerance for scammy churches and gives us a leg up in Tech

So the only thing saving Ukraine from just getting all aid cut off is that Obama got a peace prize, right ?

My “not planning to flee to Algeria” outfit is raising a lot of questions already answered by my outfit

Bezos didn’t buy Wapo to make money. He bought it because it has elite influence and its import then to actually know what they’re saying to that audience.

Screenshots also work

I just don’t get the ethical stance that shares X screenshots but not WaPo screenshots
