In Canada, a level one charger is 1.4kw

Low rise pants and translucent plastic accessories

Haha went right over my head. Remembering movie quotes has never been my skill!

Judging by my teenager’s friends, it’s back

Whale’s vagina?

I love the concept, but does San Diego not simply mean Saint Diego?

It’s a valid argument if you don’t live near good charging infrastructure. I have an EV in an area with ample charging. But when we went to visit my in-laws who live in a more rural area, it was a big challenge. The only chargers around were so slow that it would take 24+ hours to charge the car. And if you run out, you can’t get someone to bring a can of gas.

In an urban area, I love the reduced maintenance and not getting gas. On a road trip with kids, I don’t love killing half an hour in a grocery store with my kids amassing armloads of candy faster than I can put it back.

EVs are great, but we can’t automatically dismiss any complaint a hesitant person has.

We had a babysitter whose husband was a pastor and would always talk about being scared for our souls. In her eyes, being a good person and having a private relationship with God was inadequate to avoid going to hell. She truly felt that church attendance and renouncing other religions was the only path to salvation - belief, prayer, and following the teachings of Jesus would be inadequate.

Now I can’t claim to know what God wants. But I can’t see how paying the church and excluding people with different belief systems outweighs kindness.

If only. Ontario said they would only do it if all their neighbours said they would do it too. So all our neighbours said they would do it if their neighbours do it. And their neighbours said “sure! If all of our neighbours will join us”.

We can only hope BC being willing can trickle back eastwards across everyone until we are compelled.

I like that you provide the service, as I dislike unidentified wetness (which would prevent me from being the clog poker).

Potatoes get a bad name, but they are full of potassium, vitamin C, and fibre.

I think he got a blepharoplasty too, his eyelids are entirely different.

It’s a weird world of vanity when celebrities try to downplay which cosmetic procedures they have had done.

All of it is a personal choice, and self-perpetuating part of America’s culture of basing your entire value around looking young. They all seem to want to pretend that they are that one person who looks this way naturally, presumably in the hope that others don’t join in and look “younger” too

Trump is the sum of American will put together. There are plenty of people pulling in the other direction, but not enough to counter his runaway train of ingrained selfishness.

Promise them that their overdue riches are coming soon. MAGA doesn’t hate war, they hate the idea that someone other than them is getting financial help

Personally I’d prefer not to lose my fingers to gar and muskies…

The last time I went to Florida I wanted to go hiking. We went to a local trail that had signs for alligators and pythons all over the place, and warning to avoid getting leprosy from armadillos. I don’t know how common these issues would be, but it made Canadian trails look like a walk in the park.

I recall seeing a Reddit sub that was entirely populated by bots. The replies were nearly indistinguishable from humans. It really coloured my view of Reddit - what’s the point of engaging when I’m likely talking to lines of code?

Does this number reflect only people who left by choice, or does it also include those who have been deported? The composition of this group would be interesting to see.

I have a bet going with my father in law over the US midterms. He believes that the American midterms will swing things towards the Democrats and their country will get back on track. I took the cynical bet and said there was no way midterms would swing government control, because a) a large portion of the population is not inspired to go out and support the Democrats even if they don’t love the current administration and b) I fully expect whatever amount of fraud is necessary to ensure a Republican win despite poor polling.

I always hope I’m wrong and just taking being a pessimist, but articles like this make me realize that I might well be drowning my sorrows in a very nice bottle of wine in November.

What, those aren’t the kind of high powered names you expect to be seeing on Shark Tank one day?

Is this where trickle down economics is supposed to work?

As the companies that receive refunds will pass the money onto the customers who paid them?
