What the hell is the set up in that room, are there chairs just tossed all over?

5 lug nuts can be loosened in about 5 seconds with a heavy duty impact wrench. If you've ever seen tires get stolen it only takes about 15 seconds to pull off.

That will be enough to disable the car. It'll get moving before they notice it.

Make sure the battery is at full charge. Chevy typically uses 12mm or 14mm lug nuts in their trucks.

Used motor oil and sand in a water balloon also completely obstructs the view through any window and can't be cleaned off.

I mean, Ethan found out Lilah was pregnant several weeks earlier. You don't get a lot of warning for a miscarriage.

His audienthe mce already had a habit of trolling him. I remember the forums being particularly toxic. People fucking hated Tim Buckley well before he made a 4 panel comic about a miscarriage.

Well you see, one time a web comic guy who only knew one punchline decided to try to tell a sad story...

A good seasoning should withstand some pretty brutal punishment. And even if it doesn't, you can easily reseason the pan which you'll have to do from time to time regardless.

I season my cookie sheets the same way. I've put them in the dishwasher, hit them with those steel wire soapy things, used barkeeper's friend, not much has taken the seasoning off once it's on there.

Except for lemon juice. Lemon juice fucks it right up.

The glass cooktops are insanely scratch resistant. I use a metal scraper to clean mine.

I learned after a few months of game pass that most of the games that looked interesting actually weren't. It's no big loss, and it's cheaper to just buy the few games I actually want anymore. Doubly true now.

So give the Republicans the government they actually want?

Public companies have a hard wired compulsion to increase value for shareholders. Every single decision is made with profit in mind. In the best cases you get milquetoast, inoffensive material everyone can enjoy. Ultimately, this leads to a relentless and aggressive pursuit of endless growth at any cost.

Private companies can take a loss here and there, they don't have to report a bad quarter and so they can plan ahead. Which allows them to do two, non explains things. That approach allows them to build a robust and loyal consumer base which is quite valuable. So they'll sell it off again and let the public companies milk them dry. They can also get up to some horrendously evil shit behind closed doors in a foreign country where the laws only apply to people who aren't the ruling family and never have to answer for it. Though that kind of thing is usually reserved for like, chemical manufacturers and labor intensive luxury food markets. It may be that the Saudis are just diversifying and want a propaganda mouthpiece. Or one of the royals REALLY likes FIFA.

Hard to say.
