(E. Jean Carroll court case.) "I did not rape that woman. She's not my type." Trump college: Getting the women of your desires 101.

"Kamala's crazy, watch her laugh, you can tell a lot about how someone laughs, she's crazy." Trump. FFS that man talks garbage and his cult followers suck it up. They wouldn't wear covid masks because they'd look stupid. But not as stupid as their ear bandages now to mimic DT's!

Piastri seemed quite subdued post race. His analytical self probably knew he blew it when he ran off the track at turn 11. Just grateful team orders prevailed. Had he not run off his leading margin was enough to pit and re-enter still leading. His nature is being very self-critical and to learn for next time.

The USA has a sick code of violence. I can think of a number of situations where people have been killed due to US politics, the assasination attempt, Jan 6th, the fanatical gunman who attacked the FBI offices in Ohio. There are lots more once you start sifting who's been murdered due to politics in the US over the past 8 years. Reuters has a lot to say: https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/usa-politics-violence/ Trump said it was incredible that an assassination attempt was made in US. So what does he really think of all that country's tragic mass shootings? They're NOT INCREDIBLE?

For my Aussie mates. After being banged on the head a few times I found gas struts at Bunnings for $20 each. Goliath 502mm 450nm are the same specs as Stabilus, much cheaper and readily available. I had to swap the ball ends on the hatch. Lots of WD-40 and slowly working them out, backwards and forwards, did the trick.

No. Without knowing what's broken and could be churning about in the box I wouldn't. You could try a Renault specialist for the box rebuild.

I did wonder where it got to. Used to see it regularly. I'm in CH. There's a guy, Ian, in GH who's took his box apart and rebuilt it. He's got the GTO c/r kit. I've dismantled a few but haven't done a full rebuild yet. Just collecting parts including a Quaife torsen and hopefully a c/r gear set down the track. Rebuilt quite a few other boxes though. Are you a "hands on" guy? They're not a complicated box.

I might have spares. Got a number of UN1 and 369 boxes. You in WPH?

You off Aitken Rd WPH?

Many would agree with this: Jabba the Hutt of privilege... The best description of Donald Trump was done by Nate White a British columnist: “A few things spring to mind; Trump lacks certain qualities which the British traditionally esteem. For instance, he has no class, no charm, no coolness, no credibility, no compassion, no wit, no warmth, no wisdom, no subtlety, no sensitivity, no self-awareness, no humility, no honour and no grace – all qualities, funnily enough, with which his predecessor Mr. Obama was generously blessed. So for us, the stark contrast does rather throw Trump’s limitations into embarrassingly sharp relief. Plus, we like a laugh. And while Trump may be laughable, he has never once said anything wry, witty or even faintly amusing – not once, ever. I don’t say that rhetorically, I mean it quite literally: not once, not ever. And that fact is particularly disturbing to the British sensibility – for us, to lack humour is almost inhuman. But with Trump, it’s a fact. He doesn’t even seem to understand what a joke is – his idea of a joke is a crass comment, an illiterate insult, a casual act of cruelty. Trump is a troll. And like all trolls, he is never funny and he never laughs; he only crows or jeers. And scarily, he doesn’t just talk in crude, witless insults – he actually thinks in them. His mind is a simple bot-like algorithm of petty prejudices and knee-jerk nastiness. There is never any under-layer of irony, complexity, nuance or depth. It’s all surface. Some Americans might see this as refreshingly upfront. Well, we don’t. We see it as having no inner world, no soul. And in Britain we traditionally side with David, not Goliath. All our heroes are plucky underdogs: Robin Hood, Dick Whittington, Oliver Twist. Trump is neither plucky, nor an underdog. He is the exact opposite of that. He’s not even a spoiled rich-boy, or a greedy fat-cat. He’s more a fat white slug. A Jabba the Hutt of privilege. And worse, he is that most unforgivable of all things to the British: a bully. That is, except when he is among bullies; then he suddenly transforms into a snivelling sidekick instead. There are unspoken rules to this stuff – the Queensberry rules of basic decency – and he breaks them all. He punches downwards – which a gentleman should, would, could never do – and every blow he aims is below the belt. He particularly likes to kick the vulnerable or voiceless – and he kicks them when they are down. So the fact that a significant minority – perhaps a third – of Americans look at what he does, listen to what he says, and then think ‘Yeah, he seems like my kind of guy’ is a matter of some confusion and no little distress to British people, given that: Americans are supposed to be nicer than us, and mostly are. You don’t need a particularly keen eye for detail to spot a few flaws in the man. This last point is what especially confuses and dismays British people, and many other people too; his faults seem pretty bloody hard to miss. After all, it’s impossible to read a single tweet, or hear him speak a sentence or two, without staring deep into the abyss. He turns being artless into an art form; he is a Picasso of pettiness; a Shakespeare of shit. His faults are fractal: even his flaws have flaws, and so on ad infinitum. God knows there have always been stupid people in the world, and plenty of nasty people too. But rarely has stupidity been so nasty, or nastiness so stupid. He makes Nixon look trustworthy and George W. look smart. In fact, if Frankenstein decided to make a monster assembled entirely from human flaws – he would make a Trump. And a remorseful Doctor Frankenstein would clutch out big clumpfuls of hair and scream in anguish: ‘My God… what… have… I… created?’ If being a twat was a TV show, Trump would be the boxed set.” Thank you Nate White, 501K views View 9,820 upvotes View 276 shares All reactions

Hey Michael, do some checks of squatting vs sitting when defecating. The jury's still out on hemorroids but generally positive about being easier and faster. (Seen those no squatting on the toilet seat signs at airports?)

DOH, meant .7kg.

A litre of petrol weighs a little over 7kgs.

Found you one. At this boost level they become insane. But if properly mapped can be docile enough to give your grandmother. https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/2004-mazda-mx-5-se-nb-series-4-manual/SSE-AD-13688793/?Cr=0
