Puerto Rico hasn't had reliable power in a decade.

The grid sends occasional surges through the wires that fry appliances.

Electricity rates are among the highest in the entire U.S.

Heat waves are getting intense in the summer, and outages mean A/C is no guarantee for an aging population.

So do people actually pay these “import duty” invoices they keep sending? Seems fake.

I was initially skeptical of self driving cars, which I thought were vaporware intended to undermine public and active transit.

Now that I have lived with them for a couple years, I can confidently say that the Waymo cars are Good: they drive safely and courteously while actually following the law.
the fact that early-stage automated vehicles that still occasionally require remote operation assistance are like several orders of magnitude safer than the average American driver should be the real wakeup call here, not the idea that these vehicles still sometimes need remote operation assistance

The other thing about this is that people ought to be running everywhere, even in races considered long shots
JUST IN: Democrats flip a red seat in the Texas Senate.

Taylor Rehmet wins against Leigh Wambsganss, a conservative activist who helped lead right-wing efforts to take over TX school boards.

With all early vote, and 95% of precincts, in, Dem up 57/43.

Trump won this seat by 17% in Tarrant County.

We need to shut down the word "performative" until we can figure out what the hell is going on. Of course adopting symbols of protest and resistance is performative! Performance is a core strategy for mass movements!! That's why the call them demonstrations!!!

You so often see "not everyone wants to cycle!!!" as an argument against measures to address car dependency.

Not everyone wants to drive!!!
According to a new nationwide survey published in Transportation Research Part A, nearly one in five urban and suburban Americans who currently own a car say they are strongly interested in living car-free. Another 40 percent say they’re open to the idea.

As seen in cities such as Paris, fewer cars and fewer drivers can translate to less traffic congestions, cleaner air, healthier and happier people and local businesses.

Not to get political, but America is very pretty and has a lot of nice folks making cool things, and I think if we had a president who wasn’t actively trying to murder us, we could have a pretty good time

Minneapolis's rapid response is working. You can see on the ground that it's working. But you can also see WHY it's working. It's not the secrecy (which, frankly, is a mirage). It's the numbers, and rules of engagement which refuse to create an obvious foothold for opponents.

Sitting alone at the pub while my car charges at a public charger. Which, honestly, not a bad situation to be in.
