My first thought is all the maga people are going to run up to Alaska to "defend freedom" from Russia.

I then realized that probably won't happen because they'll only listen to what Trump tells them to do, so they'll sit back and watch as the USA is reduced to 49 states.

In their eyes, you can't spell RUSsiA without U.S.A....

A 2024 Kia Telluride is right around $50,000 USD (fully loaded specs), but I get what you're saying with regards to vehicles in general.

Like BMW and Tesla having "creature comforts" behind subscriptions.

Has anybody seen the movie WALL-E?

It's probably a bit of a stretch, but I feel like this is somehow the genesis/precursor of the hoverchairs that all the adults use for everything.

(God, I hope not.)

It's a pretty successful Disney movie from the last 20 years, there was never a chance that would work.

that's Greek letter mu. It means micrograms or one millionth of a gram

This seems more appropriate.

Mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell.

My American accent pronounces it "Shove-on".

It's going on/near my desktop dumpster (full of mints)

Cell phone incoming signals: dit dit dit...dit dit dit...dit dit dit...buzzzzzzzzzz..dit dit dit...buzzzzzz...ringtone.

Because it's not that easy, unfortunately. The 5-way switch (d-pad with center button if you will), is molded into a shell. That shell is what sits in the cavity of the steering wheel. Even if you removed the switch from the shell, you still have to deal with the wiring inside, behind the switches and contacts, and the fact that the d-pad and the shell are formed in a way to only allow installation one way (as in there's notches or grooves that will only let the switch sit in the shell at the "correct" position).

Hope this makes sense. (I'm a former automotive technician turned training/warranty coordinator)

Oh I agree, but my favorite line just kills it for me, I always laugh whenever I think about it:

Candycaneee, I've got your pink champagne...

Putin will probably just pull some more strings or use whatever leverage he supposedly has against Trump, so it ends up with Russia getting Alaska back with some form of a federal government payout too, that will be doled out to the working class in the form of a tax increase.
