That map makes zero sense to me

Why is Austin green as a “cleanest energy city” for 70% reliance on fossil fuels, while New York City is red as a “carbon-intensive city” at 68%?

Lawyers are there to win both. The court of public opinion is important

To be fair, he still hasn’t asked. NATO officials have stated they’re yet to receive a formal request

All his “requests” have been Truth social ramblings

I’m in the same boat as him. I have zero talent or understanding if music and art

Math comes very easily and naturally to me. Even advanced calculus felt east to learn

I couldn’t sing a single song from memory. Not in a, “I’m bad at singing” way. Literally I don’t remember a single song. I have memorized songs before, but it’s quick to forget them, because it’s just that to me - memorization

With practice and effort I can memorize songs and generally replicate patterns to make music, but that’s it. It isn’t really learning music

Proton let me delete the payment information between charges, but they certainly made it a painful process. I had to email support

Corn syrup is better than our other main use for it: Ethanol

Problem is that we have such extreme subsidies that vast swaths of farmers are now entirely reliant on corn subsidies. We make far more corn than we have any use for because of it

No politician wants to be the one to take away the insane corn subsidies because a whole lot of farmers will be upset, and the American public is generally unaware of how wasteful the subsidies are

Only $15.66/hour for that? That’s fucked up

Ranked choice voting has become my top policy issue

Long-term it’s the most important change we could make. It’s what can get us candidates people actually like, rather than constantly voting for the “electable” one with corporate backers

What a broken electoral system. Not that much of America has a functional democratic system

Hank Hill, Strickland Propane and propane accessories
