I saw that interview. That one woman was insufferable. She is a professional victim.

If society was just, pedophiles would be committing suicide if they acted on their fantasies. I mean if you know it’s an automatic and speedy death sentence to sexually abuse a child and you do it anyway - yep, he Clinton’d himself.

EDIT: This man has had this license plate over 20 years. Just recently someone was upset so the DMV pulled it.

2300 pound carbon Cobra, anyone?

Classic Recreations Unveils Carbon Fiber Shelby Cobra

Classic Recreations Unveils Carbon Fiber Shelby Cobra​

Only 10 will be made.
IEN Staff

Classic Recreations shared an early look at the first of only 10 licensed Carbon Fiber Shelby Cobra Race Cars, dubbed the Diamond Edition.
The vehicle is a tribute to Carroll Shelby's design and engineering. Only 10 of these Diamond Edition masterpieces will ever be made.
"We developed the Diamond Edition Cobra by starting with the question, 'What car would Carroll build with today's technology?' Our team painstakingly recreated this one-of-a-kind vehicle to carry forward the legacy and vision of one of the world's greatest car builders," said Jeff Stone, CEO at Classic Recreations. "We are going to Monterey Car Week to reveal a supercar that most collectors didn't know was being developed, a completely re-engineered piece of motorsport history - listed in the Shelby registry. We continue to honor Carroll Shelby's remarkable heritage and think he'd be proud of the legacy we continue to build in his home state of Texas."

The officially licensed Shelby Cobra Race Car was recreated to celebrate 60 years of Cobra and Shelby's heritage. Only eight remaining are available to collectors at $1.2 million.
The Cobra Race Car display will give visitors an "exploded" view of the car's design and performance engineering, including its CAD-designed, race-inspired chassis, billet CNC-machined aluminum assembly components, cantilever suspension, and other key components. Capable of 1,000 HP, the Cobra Race Car is anticipated to weigh about 2,300 pounds wrapped in an aerospace-grade, pre-preg carbon fiber body that weighs only 88 pounds.

EDIT: as cool as that is, I'd rather have an aluminum replica instead of space-material dune buggy

Kinda funny how AI is simply doing what most people already understand but have been socially adjusted to never say out loud.

Funny how its only an issue when AI does it, but not Instagram.

Especially since the original 427 Shelby Cobra only weighed 2355lbs.

Also, a hand-tooled aluminum body just has more soul than the plastic fantastic

To be fair, the extra 55 lbs could be for good reasons (e.g., bigger brakes & wheels).

Yup Ill take an OG knockoff over carbon plastic anyday. No modern goodies make it just like the one my dad wrapped around a phone pole.

Because I know how you mother fuckers think. Just like I do. "Magic circle" just don't sound right.

Oh trust me, it does when you say it.

"Now welcoming mrblaine as the new pivotman in the Magic Circle."

It does have a nice ring to it.

It takes a sick mind to sexualize a 10-year-old boy in the magic circle with the Globetrotters.

The town of Goodhue, Minnesota will soon be without local law enforcement after its police force resigned last week, citing low pay.

Police Chief Josh Smith resigned at a City Council meeting on Aug. 9. One other full-time officer and five part-time employees resigned on Aug. 11 after hearing Smith quit, according to the Minneapolis Star Tribune.

The last day for Smith and the other full-time officer is Aug. 23, at which point the council will seek extra enforcement from the Goodhue County Sheriff's Office in the interim.

It's a town of 1200 people, I'm surprised they even have a police department and they had 2 full timers and 5 part timers? Where I grew up the county handled policing for towns near that size.
