Up the coast from you, just a tiny bit, and my parrot is not a happy bird. She wants outside, she wants sun, she wants warm, and she gets clouds, cold, rain. Last night I took her out to the porch, so she could see what the weather was like (and maybe stop screaming to go outside) and she bit my nose. When Scooter suffers, everyone suffers!
#ukraine #for heavens, Sake, just give Ukraine everything it needs to stop and win this war. Problem of escalation my ass. Isnβt the world just sick of watching the Ukrainians fight this courageous fight and we just trickle equipment to them as we see fit. We are allowing defence, not offence. I as a citizen of the human race demand that you arseholes in power do the right thing for a change.
Honored to serve as Communications Task Force Co-Chair for the Democratic Women's Caucus.

And install solar panels. The 10KW system on my roof generates more power than my house uses on sunny days, and generates power to offset my grid use even on cloudy/rainy days.
This is itβplain & simple. No more fossil fuel infrastructure & itβs time to earnestly transition away from fossil fuel equipment & heating. Electrify your heating & cooling. Itβs cheaper & more efficient. Switch to EVs. There are lots more than Tesla.

A Black man I talked to told me the thing that really got under his skin was the elevator doors opening and the (white) people waiting would decide they didn't really want the elevator, after all. He said it was like a slap in the face, every time.
One of the biggest propaganda wins for white supremacists was teaching kids (and everyone else) that racism is a unique and special evil, one that can only be done by evil racists or faceless passionless "systems."
It's more comfortable to think of it as a force of nature or a thing only done by Bad Guys than something almost all of us contribute to and need to be conscious of.
Only because the GQP has turned "freedom of speech" into "speech, free from consequences". That was never the intent.
/3 It is a βfree speech cultureβ that irrationally lionizes the Amy Waxes of the world while incoherently policing and seeking to deter, limit, and tone-police people responding to her.

So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
