This is what people don't get about EVs. Yes there's range anxiety, less infrastructure, and the higher initial cost. But one-pedal driving, smooth power curves, quiet, and, if you get the right EV, a ride ICE cars can't match. And a sense you're doing the planet some good.

Nancy Mace is happy that she now moves into the number three spot behind Laura Loomer and Anna Paulina Luna in the rankings of "GOP Total Loons With Dark Hair", just ahead of Katie Britt. Congratulations on the step up, Nance.

I was, before I met my current wife who nixed the idea, to have the last two lines of The Second Coming tattooed over a couple of rotator cuff scars as sand leaking from the divots left by the surgery. This poem is everything: A map, a threat, the ancient warnings, the modern apathy.The words soar.

Isn't one of the rules of engagement "Don't mass murder children"? Because it should be.

Orwell did say, "Those who 'abjure' violence can do so only because others are committing violence on their behalf" which means that piety about non-violence is a luxury paid for in other's blood, kind of like claiming to be the "Peace President" while engaging in wholesale murder by proxy.

They've already ordered their S.H.I.E.L.D. jets and skintight uniforms. And American flag condoms.

You notice he only asked his imaginary friend for forgiveness, not the woman who died by suicide, nor her family, nor his own family. These Bible-bangers and the voices in their head, jfc.

Tony Gonzales admits affair with aide who died by suicide β€œβ€‹β€‹I’ve asked God to forgive me, which he has,” the San Antonio Republican told a conservative radio host the day after he was forced into a primary runoff.

Once, just once, I'd like one of these assholes to ask god for forgiveness and for god to say, "You can fuck all the way off".

Not naming any names but there's at least one Senator who could do a lot better, man.

I think living in fear of the public on an army base as he does now is as close as Mitler wants to get to the military.

I guess it's still too early to say there's an "enthusiasm gap", but there's definitely an "enthusiasm gap". But I guess it's still too early to say.

Barron probably won't either--he's too tall at 6'9" to be drafted. He could get a waiver like "The Admiral", NBA star David Robinson (7'1") got from the Navy, but I'm guessing he'll sit this one out.

In all the time the Trump family has been in the US none of them have ever been in the military. Barron won't be either because he's exempt. The maximum height for the armed services is 6'8" and he's 6'9". He could be granted a waiver like NBA star David Robinson (7'1") was but how likely is that?

You know the way state politicians always say "thank god for Mississippi"? Because no matter how bad things are in your state, MS is worse. I imagine a lot of folks on Capitol Hill say "thank god for Markwayne".

On top of that, when has a war between ethnic factions sponsored by the fucking CIA ever been a good idea?

Iran's ethnic fault lines offer path for US, Israel Seeking to bring down Iran's Islamic republic, the United States and Israel could see a path by exploiting ethnic tensions, a strategy attractive to military planners but fraught with long-term risks.

Here's a bad idea that the Trump regime is following like a trail of crumbs to a pit full of sharp stakes and vipers. The Kurds are5-9% of Iran's population and mostly Sunni, unlike the 90-95% who are Shia. This is like an AI recipe for antifreeze and hemlock soup--the ingredients are all wrong.

Iran War Draining US Weapons Stockpiles, Raising Fears From Ukraine to Taiwan US Weapons Stockpiles, From Ukraine to Taiwan From Washington to Ukraine to Taiwan, there’s growing concern that Iran is draining U.S. supplies of weapons relied on by U.S. allies

First the Trump Secretary of Warmongering tells us that we were under threat of attack by Iran's missiles. Then we're told we can easily stop those missiles. While our supplies hold out. Who goes to war knowing they could run out of arrows?

After Ruining a Treasured Water Resource, Iran Is Drying Up Iran is looking to relocate the nation’s capital because of severe water shortages that make Tehran unsustainable. Experts say the crisis was caused by years of ill-conceived dam projects and overpump...

The economy in Iran is decayed, the factionalism dormant but festering, the youth disaffected and angry, religious fanaticism still a factor, and worst of all, it's in what's been called "water bankruptcy". Decapitate the leadership and all these problems come to the fore. And our responsibility.

Between the preventative skin cream, preventative aspirin, preventative MRI, preventative makeup, preventative bandages, and the preventative socks, do you get the feeling that the only thing keeping him from turning into a doughy puddle are Bandaids and Spanx?

The whole "you break it , you bought it" thing has never been truer than now. Attacking a failing water-starved religious state with a massive missile supply and killing its entire leadership is the very definition of breaking it. The next question is, "How much is this gonna cost us?"

Oil prices rise and stock markets dip as Iran war threatens global economy Brent crude up 13% in early trading with markets under pressure as US-Israeli strikes on Iran effectively close strait of Hormuz to shipping

The knock on effect of higher oil prices is deep. It affects supply chains, manufacturing, transportation, energy, tourism, farming and pretty much every other aspect of the economy, which is teetering like a late-stage Jenga game right now. But don't worry, I think Russia's gonna be just fine.

In the photo his eyes look very unfocused. He seems to drift a lot these days. And nobody is mentioning the edits (at least 2 that I've counted) in his announcement video.
