I don’t disagree, but in pulp fiction the use of these slurs lends to a pretty accurate portrayal of criminal underworld, and people generally, being very casually racist/homophobic in LA/Long Beach in the late 80s and early 90s. I grew up in that area in that time, and it felt pretty spot on in that movie.

Wage growth surpassed inflation every month this year.

Not saying you’re wrong or I disagree with your sentiment.

I believe you. You obviously know more. But it just seems so clear when I drink something crisp and light that I’m not getting that sugar high and headache I associate with strawberry daiquiris. But I get it from IPAs.

Have you ver been to Cuba? It’s worse than any other country I’ve been to in the Caribbean in terms of standard of living/HDI with way more of the authoritarian garbage you weirdos seem to like.

Move there. Send me a pic of your house. I will visit.

Cuba is failure but you could easily argue that outside forces made that happen, and it least it’s not a giga corporatocracy calling itself communist like China is. China feels like late stage ultra capitalism with shortcuts. Yay corporations are married to the government…Pretty much where the US is headed.

My comment isn’t disagreeing with you. Only adding my two cents.

I live in an city that is on the top 10 list for breweries per capita in the world. And it’s all IPAs. Maybe 20% is not. And yeah it’s nice that I have 20 beers to chose from that aren’t ipas when I go to a place with 100 taps. I just hate having to sort though it all.

There should be an IPA menu, and a non ipa menu.

Also: IPAs have a lot of sugar content, and combined with alcohol sugar gives me a shitty buzz and a headache. I don’t know how people can drink more than one.

There’s a lot of people who call exurban areas suburbs. And everyone has basically changed the definition. Suburbs in the traditional definition are usually close to a city (often within the city limits), and has house but also public transport and close access to the city itself. And in that sense suburbs are probably a very nice balance, compared to exurbs. Exurbs are definitely not a nice balance, as it’s nothing but stroads and shitty plazas, with giant parking lots, and fast food chains.

Brooklyn is technically a suburb. Palmdale, CA is a exurb.

First of all I have never owned a car that got less than 250k. But every car I’ve ever had was made in Japan and maintained properly. That statistic is meaningless because 1) many cars aren’t maintained 2) many cars are “totaled” for no good reason 3) cars are resold to people who refuse to or can afford to maintain them.

I didn’t say 10-15x the *original cost * of the car. By the time a car has let’s say 150k+ on it it’s not very valuable. It’s 17k for a full replacement on their smallest vehicle. So a $20k+ battery on midsized car (the actual cost of a full battery replacement, not according to Elon) won’t get replaced at all. The car will be totaled.

Replacing a full battery is not $13k. You are citing the average cost which includes if only one cell needs replacement. Replacing an transmission or a engine is much more affordable than a full battery replacement.

It’s not fox news. It’s fox news talking points that pretend EVs are good enough to save the world, and we can keep on feeling fine with an unsustainable “solutions” instead of dealing with the real issues.

Very misleading arguments you are making. EVs will make no meaningful changes to saving your wallet, the environment, or resolving climate change. And definitely won’t lessen the amount of waste headed to landfills in 15 years.
