yeah it’s wild to me that petroleum jelly and kerosene come from the same thing

yeah from what people are telling me, we have the capability of processing lower quality crude oil so it makes more sense to export our high quality stuff, then buy the cheap stuff since we can already refine it.

dude. we are not talking about the gasoline. we are talking about the oil being used to make the gasoline. what percentage of the crude oil being refined into American gasoline is American produced crude oil?

yes but how much of that gasoline was made from American crude oil? America has plenty of refineries, just none of them designed for American oil

the government should at least subsidize a couple so in the event of an apocalypse we can make our own gasoline.

correct me if I’m wrong, but the United States doesn’t even have oil refineries that are capable of making gasoline out of American oil? like we need the type of oil that the middle East has, so we’re constantly trading oil back and forth even though we have plenty of it

I think I’ve heard this is true. something about politicians wanting to look environmentalist and therefore preventing the building of any more refineries

is there an easy way for us to abuse this system to get ourselves paid a bunch of money?

my browser always asks if I want the simplified view which always bypasses the paywall

imagine if we pooped little pellets like goats

it’s a modified R7 ICBM.

why don’t they just copy-paste the soyuz?

dude. I was at a Christian rehab center several years ago. this one kid came as a resident, his parents having been missionaries in Western Africa.

he kept having “seizures”, except he was completely conscious during them, he would just have fits where he would collapse to the ground and have uncontrollable muscle spasms. I’m pretty sure it was a form of panic attack, but some Christian hypnotherapist had hypnotized him, and “uncovered” a “suppressed memory” of some random African dragging him into the woods and putting a curse on him at knifepoint. when he was having a fit, one staff member would hold his head in a pillow to keep him from hurting himself, and somebody else would read the bible over him.

somehow, this curse was strong enough to overpower the word of god, but not a handful of xanax.

because few people in this society spend money on something that makes other people’s lives easier.

this is completely me guessing but like, they have to have regular airport security, otherwise other nations wouldn’t be letting airplanes from their country enter their airspace, right? that would mean bomb dogs at the very least. unless they don’t have any international airports?

oh shit

it’s just, so many devices. surely one of them would have crossed paths

bro please google words before you use them

yes people are aware that sheep don’t actually run on artificial intelligence.

things can be more than one thing

correct me if I’m wrong, but this is in reference to a civil suit. the ruling has nothing to do with him being locked up
