My fianceé is dead of metastatic cancer. I don't know what to say. I will never be the same again. I will never love again. I'm ready to go myself. Rest in peace, my love.

Water is enough to kill an engine dead dead dead, it'll fuck up all the metal in there (liquid can't be compressed, and water can't combust to turn into "a gas", so stuff starts going crazy), so I'm really not convinced that it's any better to add sugar to water

You know, you're kind of trying to start it when I already said like 3 times I'm not gonna start it
And yes I said I "can" start it. And I still can. But I'm not. So let it go.
Everyone else told me not to, but I have strong opinions that are not very favorable to pit bulls so I'm gonna leave it there
Too much water in your gas will completely destroy your engine. It's called hydrolocking and if you've ever seen those Jeeps with the snorkels up above the roof, it's the same idea - keep air going into the air intake and then into the engine, rather than water. See liquids don't really compress but in an engine it's okay because gasoline combusts with a spark - so it kinda disappears right? Gets converted to a gaseous state, aka exhaust.
Water (or any other combination of liquid which isn't flammable enough) does not combust with a spark. There's nowhere for the liquid to go, pressure builds, metal goes flying into all kinds of places it shouldn't be. It is, as far as I know, always cheaper to find a replacement engine than to fix the damage from hydrolocking. It's REALLY bad.
The worst case for sugar in the tank - which honestly isn't even that likely - is that it totally clogs up the fuel filter and cuts the flow to the engine. This can be diagnosed in about 10 minutes by any mechanic with the customer saying "it sputtered out and died", and they'll see that there is no fuel getting to the engine and ping pang poom, they're gonna drop the tank, look at the filter and see a big wet pile of sugar in there.
Well I very much don't like pit bulls and it's not forced. But fine
Every car made in the past, oh I dunno, 95 years or so has a fuel filter. Its literal job is to filter particulate solids, like sugar. What I'm saying is that don't work. Worst case, they have to drop the fuel tank, clean it out, and get a new filter. Back on the road for a couple hundred bucks, and they'll know someone put sugar in it.
If you REALLY wanna fuck up a car, bring a 5 gallon gas can filled with water. It also helps the story if you happen to come across a "witness". Unless that tank is slap full I give it 5 to 1 odds that thing ain't making it too far before it is "compromised to a permanent end". And sometimes the tanks at gas stations do get contaminated with water (but it's usually not a big problem), so that sends them on a wild goose chase.
We ever done a pit bull struggle session on here? If not, I can start it.
Obviously the NYT take on it is fucking garbage but barring some kind of sci-fi technology that can recapture carbon and all that, we're not fucking stopping climate change. It's just not happening. This is the reality we are going to face and I think it's probably best to get that through as many people's head as possible, as soon as possible.
And yes, I know c/doomer is over there.
Solidarity Forever - BUT SPECIFICALLY, the Leonard Cohen version at the University of Wisconsin Fieldhouse with what sounds like a music student on the piano and, idk, a bunch of old church choir ladies?
"Okay, can you... can you give me an introduction?" In the musical sense, not like ladies and gentlemen here's Leonard Cohen.
I'm legit thinking of moving to "the Chicago area" (ok, I'm old, not so much into the daily city life anymore, so probably the suburbs), I talked to an old friend who lives in the loop and he was just like "idk lol", so can you come up with some compelling reasons why I should NOT do that? I really don't need the sales pitch on why to go, it seems pretty self evident to me (huge city with all the amenities and a reasonable cost of living, pretty much)
I'm okay with the weather, btw, so that's not really a con for me - just something to live with.
if this person is german, yes, I think I will keep slandering them
can't forget trump really entered the political world on the back of "obama is a secret kenyan and is not eligible to be president"
you know at one job I had there was a lady who was definitely well into the 50s who was really just starting to transition and was the sweetest and everyone loved her, and you know, I guess what I'm trying to get at is that it's never too late, "best time and second best time to plant a tree" and all that, but you're really.... respectfully, it's kind of too young to have regrets about things you didn't do (idk how to say that and mean no disrespect, hopefully you get what I'm saying), but don't have regrets later about not doing things before
you're too young to drink and you are talking about stuff you never got to do? make like nike and just do it, maybe have a drink first or something, might get your courage up
I think they look pretty damn good, it's the actual fact of knowing what little debbie makes and knowing that their treats suck that makes it feel that way
you take one of these and do a nice stylized food photo without the logo in it, I'd probably be tempted
there is a delicious little morsel of irony in watching all the people who said 3 weeks ago that student loan forgiveness is some kind of a hugely unpopular handout to the wealthy, and now they're all on their jokerfied dark brandon shit because he actually did it
these people stand for absolutely nothing, it's a fucking team sport to them
