And non-voters too.

A "null" in the tally is just as impactful as any ballot. A "non-vote" is really just a "non-ballot vote." There is no real "I didn't vote" in the sense of meaning "I didn't choose any of the options." Voting isn't retail; you can't opt out without receiving one of the choices. So not casting a ballot is simply letting everybody else choose for you. It's still a vote, but one made with apathy instead of a ballot.

People who don't cast a ballot like to say "voting doesn't make a difference;" and yet their so-called "non-voting" can sway elections. Simply put: both can't be true. If not casting a ballot makes a difference, then casting a ballot makes a difference. HOW YOU VOTE makes a difference.

Whad'ya know...

But remember it's a internationally traded commodity so as the availability decreases, it's availability in the market drops as bigger players buy more to hedge for worsening conditions and as the supplies become ever tighter, the price increases so only the largest of players in the market are willing to pay those prices or even have it available to buy at all

My understanding is that full synthetics are most at risk. I actually bought 7 oils changes worth for my car. Costco has/had the best price. I paid a little over $100 for all the oil.

This administration was using lube for the last two years.

when something adverse came down the pike from management, she would sigh and say, "Yet another BOHICA moment!"

One day, mystified, I asked her what BOHICA meant. She replied, "It means bend over, here it comes again!"

A good laugh, but oh so true!

The MAINTENANCE light on my dashboard is on.

Shame on me.

What's that epigram, the something or other of consequences ....

My heart bleeds, but somehow I think I'll manage.

Those playful scamps, fueled as they are by the desire to 'drink librul tears,' are going to experience much worse fuel economy. According to AAA, as of May 12, the average per-gallon price of diesel was $5.64. This has gone down a bit with the infusion of more of US strategic stockpiles by the incompetent Trump administration.

Dang!

Thing is, I really don't want to drink these MAGA tears. I'd rather their tears wash the scales from their eyes so they become aware we are all being scammed big-time by these kleptocrats.

What was it George Carlin said about the wealthy elites? "It's a big club and you ain't in it!"

Oddly enough, it was about women with big pickup trucks. New ones. They interviewed one who said it cost her $200 per fill. Think of that next time you see one of those behemoths coming down the road.

It's even more expensive if you're hauling horses around, like these women were.

And let's not forget, they earn less than men, so it's even harder for them to fuel these vehicles.

The woman they interviewed highly identified with the gigantic pickup truck. She plans to continue paying to run it.

folks have to suffer from this B.S. war.

they are no longer lubed.

I've been researching this for a while. Conventional oil should be fine from what I've read. So more places may be offering blends instead of full synthetic.

It tastes terrible on toast
