No reason tradies could not use these in lieu of monstrous RAMMS/ F150 and other wankpanzers… If only @albomp.bsky.social would incentivise small EVs instead of Dual Cab Utes- maybe would see a decline in road accidents, damaged infrastructure and navigable suburbs #auspol

I’m 52… I remember walking to my first school, then catching a bus to the next one. The one after that was the train, and finally a bus to my last school… pretty much same as most of my peers… what on earth happened?

The goods are tariffed… not the countries…
Brent Toderian@brenttoderian.bsky.social · last yr.Trump said again today some countries “are just gonna have to pay tariffs.” The news is reporting that Japan, and possibly Scotland, may have to pay a “baseline 15% tariff.” COUNTRIES DON’T PAY TARIFFS. AMERICANS BUYING THE GOODS FROM THOSE COUNTRIES PAY THE TARIFF. Anyone STILL not get that?

Robert Reich@rbreich.bsky.social · 2w agoDozens of gas-burning power plants are being built across the country, solely to power data centers. These plants could emit as much planet-warming pollution as half of all passenger vehicles in the entire country in a single YEAR. We need a data center moratorium — now.

The Death of Reading Has Been Greatly Exaggerated
Reading is good. Reading more would be better. But literate societies can be susceptible to illiberalism.
