jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 14/11/2025Mississippi Nights was legendary. Not East St. Louis though. Also, the cigarette smoke was usually so thick in there that I’m amazed this photograph was possible. 010
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 23/03/2025Sentry mode must be turned on, and it drains the battery. If these are not customer owned cars, or if the cars are in for service, sentry mode is likely turned off to reduce power consumption and extend battery life. 000
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 17/03/2025Are you and Musk still buddies? I distinctly recall him staying at your place during the maiden Virgin Galactic flight. Maybe you could ring him with your concerns. 020
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 16/03/2025If your car burns fossil fuels, you’re supporting atrocities with every gallon of gas bought. Buy an EV from a company that builds millions of fossil fuel burning vehicles, same thing. Rivian supports Bezos, Lucid is owned by Saudi Arabia. Tell me what you drive, I’ll tell you how you’re evil. 000
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 16/03/2025Or maybe judging a person by the car they drive is a dumb thing to do. How about you tell us what you drive, and I’ll tell you how you directly support atrocities. 000
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 16/03/2025Your feelings won’t fill our checking accounts. Recognize that most people can’t just shrug off losing tens of thousands of dollars in depreciation. Recognize too that the people you want to realize those losses are environmentally conscious liberals. 000
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 16/03/2025How were they duped? Do the cars secretly run on gas? Teslas are better for the environment cradle-to-grave than ICE cars. That hasn’t changed because of Elon Musk. 000
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 16/03/2025You care. That’s why you engaged. 000
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 16/03/2025Because you say so? You’re a moron. Btw, I have a Rivian. I keep the Tesla to have something reliable to drive for the months the Rivian is in service. 000
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 16/03/2025When I bought the car 4 years ago I was attacked by the right, now I’m attacked by the left. Guess what, it’s the same damn car. 000
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 16/03/2025Pay my depreciation and I will. Unless you’re willing to put your money where your mouth is, STFU. 160

jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 08/02/2025…nor do I think they exercise the imagination as strongly as picture-less books do. It is important to let the reader create the look of characters, places, things in their own mind. That’s part of the joy of books. 010
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 08/02/2025If anything, I feel the pendulum has swung too far in favor of picture books, at least for kids. The book fairs at my daughter’s school are 70-80% picture books. I don’t mind graphic novels and the like, but you won’t learn important writing skills from them like sentence and paragraph structure… 110

jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 07/02/2025Musk helped make this happen. Musk has and continues to operate in direct opposition of Tesla’s mission statement. 010
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 07/02/2025If you believe that absolute certainty = faith and you believe absolute certainty does not exist then you believe faith does not exist. There are only varying degrees of certainty. We are arguing semantics rather than a substantive difference of philosophy. 100
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 07/02/2025It’s impossible for us to know the future. We can only make predictions based on the past and present. But of course we cannot function in life without behaving as though we know with certainty some aspects of the future. We have faith the sun will rise tomorrow but we cannot know that for a fact. 100
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 06/02/2025Of course you do. We all do. Whether you acknowledge it is optional. 110
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 06/02/2025These arguments are unwinnable because at their core they are based on faith, just like crypto and fiat currency. 100
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 06/02/2025Governments are not so great at protecting the value of their currency, as countless failed governments and economic collapses can attest. Bitcoin is well-established as a global means of exchange at this point. You will likely grow old and die waiting for it to fail. 100
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 06/02/2025It’s easy to send and receive funds via crypto. Is it harder than handing over paper money? Perhaps. But the fact that we’re having this debate via a medium that requires multiple accounts be set up in order for it to occur is proof positive the world is ready for it. 110
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 06/02/2025There is no inherent value in any Fiat currency. It survives on faith, just like crypto. 100
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 06/02/2025I hope they have better luck than Tesla has had in Texas. 010
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 06/02/2025What three primary functions of money does cryptocurrency not perform: medium of exchange, store of value, or unit of account? It seems to me that crypto is at least as real as any Fiat money. 100
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 26/01/2025Tesla’s mission statement is to Accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable energy. Musk is now working in direct opposition to that mission through the Trump administration and his support for Germany’s AfD political party. Musk needs to be removed as CEO of Tesla. 000
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 26/01/2025I love both Rivian and Tesla. It’s Elon I have a problem with, as should every Tesla owner, employee, and stockholder who cares about the company’s mission statement: Accelerating the world’s transition to sustainable energy. 0100
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 25/01/2025They are consuming media like this that labels empathy toxic and part of an evil progressive plot to destroy America through compassion (I guess).

jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 16/01/2025It’s far less important what it identifies it as so long as it recognizes it as an obstacle. It could be a parade of chihuahuas for all I care just so long as the car stops. 000
jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 16/01/2025Strongly disagree. Possibly the oldest and most famous mantra in all of performance art is, “The show must go on.” To cancel the Oscars would be to accept defeat in the face of adversity. 000

jakesmasterplan.bsky.social @jakesmasterplan.bsky.social · 10/12/2024It’s probably pointless to debate this as neither of us are privy to the actual details here. That said, if you’re buying out your lease early, it would make sense that you still need to pay the remaining lease payments plus the residual value of the car at the end of the lease. 100
