The DNC is far from a monolith.

No, owners of company pay bribes to Trump so they get paid a rediculous amount to do a shoddy job and fill the pool with algae, which they can then get paid to remove

They owners of the company have done similar things in other businesses in the past

He intentionally hired “greenwater services” a firm whose owners have a history of paying bribes to fill the pool with algae

Bribes.

Quite a lot more I think. Not everybody needs a cargo bike, but they’re really amazing for moving a couple young kids a couple miles

This is, to put it mildly, really bad. They’re admitting that the ICE traitor wasn’t in any danger. But thought letting people with darker skin than his go free was so terrible he had to shoot.

ICE isn’t even saying that now. Just that he was driving away so it was necessary to shoot for public safety.

Hard to tell for sure. A large fraction of agricultural output goes to feed animals and cars.

If you live or work in an area where you encounter long grass or regularly brush up against vegetation, it’s a thing.

Treating clothing with permethrin reduces but does not eliminate risk.

You’re welcome. I try to provide those when I can’t do a gift link

When they promise to do harm, they generally tell the truth.

People are often prepared to do a little. I’d rather they do that than nothing.

Probably upset because there’s no way to cut him in when it isn’t a scam

The DNC is an indirectly elected body. Some members are surely bought off. Many are not. Their actual power is remarkably slight, and they can’t dictate what candidates or elected officials say or do

Yeah. A lot of sites break when you do that.

When a crime like is newly happening, it takes rather a while for law enforcement to catch on. I think that’s what happened. I don’t think they got it in real time.

Even when you are aware, and make the point as it happens, like Gov. Davis did in California a quarter century ago, prosecution takes time, and you can lose an election in the meantime.

Sounds like you’ve got some sort of insane local network block. They load fine for me

As I said above:

Gift links to San Francisco Chronicle articles like this one ask for registration. You can bypass that using ‘reader mode’ in most browsers, or you you can check archive.today for a copy. Be aware that archive.today sometimes modifies archived pages, and generally fails to archive complex multimedia content.

As individuals some are moving to use heat pumps or ebikes or EVs and install solar. Some communities have passed laws to make that transition happen at q local or even state level.

But without the majority operating in concert politically, we get a federal government operating to block as much of that as possible at the behest of the fossil fuels industry

The thing about electric heating is that heat pumps can move several units of energy for each one they consume. So theyre far cheaper to operate than you would expect. They’re cheaper to run in mild climate even when electricity is 3x the cost per unit of energy.

Couple that with lower health care costs, and they’re very much worth having entire communities make the switch
