K but somehow seems less important than the fact that Donald Trump raped and trafficked children and the Republican Party is protecting him.
With that said, sucks it’s going to cost so much to light him on fire after dumping gasoline on him, but it’s worth it. Think of the children.
You meant “more important”, right?
No? I think the fact a child rapist has been allowed to be President is of greater concern than rising gas prices. That between the two gas prices are less important than the fact the child rapist hasn’t been excised from office and preferably killed in such a way as to set an example to the rest of the Epstein Class.
Unless I fucked up that sentiment somehow in my previous post?
I agree that the stuff about trump is more important than gas prices therefore i wanted to correct your first sentence. You meant it seems that people care more about gas prices than the child rapist in power. So you should have written “more”, not “less”, if you meant it the way you just explained.
Okay no, you partially misunderstood/misread my comment. It was written more as a tongue in cheek reply to the Title. Another way to put the first of my original sentence is “K but (Gas Prices) somehow seems less important than…”
I wrote it exactly how I meant it. If I replaced it with more not less it would read out “K but (Gas Prices) somehow seems more important than…” in which case I would be saying the exact opposite of what I mean.
The Original version is correct.
Got it
Ah, yes. Then yes, you did. Explanation tracks with your sentiment, but @[email protected] 's correction is what you want. Fully written out text you can spot which part of the comparison you took by mistake: somehow the gas prices seem more important news, while they should be less important than the child raping.
Ahh, I see my tongue in cheek tone didn’t make it through in the first part of the sentence. Welp, it happens.
Oh dear, poor USians, higher fuel prices… that’s just as bad as dropping your daughter off at school and then 5 minutes later hearing foreign planes just blew the whole place to shit… so much sympathy.
Especially when you consider that their fuel is actually pretty cheap
Man do I wish billionaires actually had to pay for things.
they will likely flee the country when people finally come for thier heads.
Well yes but they’re also spiteful; if I recall history correctly, the disenfranchised elite in France during the Revolution sought refuge in neighboring territories and then hired mercenaries and private armies to try to return and recapture their villas.
So it’s not like “they just flee”, their egos are too damn large to remain in quiet wealthy exile.
When fuel prices increase, everything else does too. Just wait for the next food and healthcare increases. Thank the idiots who voted for the Orange Russian Pedo agent.
healthcare increased when the extended subsidies ended from covid, that was removed when SCHUMER ended the shutdown early. almost immediately, from the insurance subs in our area, they reported a drastic increase in premiums for ACA plans.
Obligatory fuck Schumer. Coming from a lifelong Dem voter.
Thanks Obama! – 50% of the voters because propaganda
I am fortunate in that I don’t have to buy gas for my car all that often because I don’t drive a ton, but I’ll have to this week and I am not looking forward to it.
The good news is that it’ll be months/years before it ever gets back down to where it was two months ago 🫠
I drive 30,000+ miles a year because of a shitty commute and driving a couple hundred miles out of town most weekends to help my parents.
And since I rent I really can’t go electric.
Is the public charging network in the US that bad? Should be half the cost per mile on public AC versus petrol - so maybe worth it at 30,000 miles. I appreciate that this is entirely dependent on having chargers close to where you normally leave your vehicle, but worth checking if you haven’t already. Also, if your parents have a driveway then you might be able to trickle charge while there.
It’s also worth considering the maintenance savings at the distance you’re driving. In the UK it’s estimated at 4p per mile (so I’d guess 4c per mile.) So even if you are relying heavily on motorway DC charging, there’s still savings to be made.
You’re not immune. Don’t forget, the machines that farm, process and deliver everything into your mouthhole all need to pay for fuel also.
I paid 6.49 for premium today in Ann Arbor.
Real question, no shade at all, just ignorance - why premium? What sort of vehicle is that ideal for, and what is the advantage?
Yeah I could Google but I’m more interested in a human’s thoughts
I have a tune that requires 93. The thing that was interesting is when I put gas in last week I paid 4.79.
Initially regular spiked while premium didn’t move much, it seems like premium has caught up.
Its kinda a weird naming thing, premium doesn’t mean better it’s just the rating and you should always use what grade is recommended for your engine
Any vehicle with a performance motor needs premium fuel to avoid damaging the engine.
These engines run at a higher compression in order to get more power, and the premium fuel prevents engine knock or pinging, the result of premature combustion from less stable fuel in lower octane ratings.
A vehicle with a performance motor doesn’t need to be some luxury line BMW or supercar, either. More common, reasonably priced sports cars also fall into this category.
okay but those are all still toys. is it used for anything practical?
Many people drive reasonably priced sports cars as their primary vehicle. For them, it’s just their car the way anyone else’s is. My 8 year old VW GTI takes premium, but it’s a reasonably standard four dour hatchback that you wouldn’t otherwise call a “toy.”
Motorcycle engines also can benefit, especially ones with high compression engines. By memory I recall my F850GS is rated 5hp less using low octane fuel. It was also recommended to use premium to solve a jerky low rev response I was having, and surprisingly it worked. Not sure if because of the additives (had to seek another brand that had premium) or because the octane.
Gasoline costs 50% more in the US than it did before the terrorist attacks on Iran

Thanks Obanma!!!
That’s “Bah-rock WHO-SAYIN’ Obamna” to you!
All because of one low IQ pedo and the members of Congress and the public that support that pedo.
All because of blackmail controlling that low IQ pedo.
And still about 30% of voters…
It’s even worse. It’s 50% of voters. 30% of the population
Remember all the “I did that” stickers? Yeah… those assholes are oddly quiet now.
The same ones who harassed and terrorized drag queens for being groomers, they’re outside the white house protesting the orange turd for and his cronies for being kid-diddlers right…right?
Funny enough, I think it MIGHT not have been about “protecting the children” at all.
There’s “iRAN up your gas!” Stickers being sold now, and I’m REALLY TEMPTED.
Hahaha, I like this one because it’s also the picture of him pointing and staring directly at an eclipse like the big’ol dumbass he is.
Be sure to buy paper stickers. It cracks me up seeing one with a finger picked corner from some guy trying to take it off.
LOL. Quite mischievous. Although I feel the poor sucker having to remove them would probably end up being another working class person, as funny as it is to imagine someone scratching vainly with rage at a sticker ridiculing their Dear Flawless Leader. 😂
Paraphrasing Cory Doctorow, Comrade Trump is hormuzing the world into the full Gretacene.
This is so well written, thanks for sharing!
That sounds like Commie talk to be citing reality.
Good. Have the day you voted for.
