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.

And don't understand the idea that authority can and sometimes should be questioned.
Especially when the authority is wrong.

There's not one answer that fits. What kind of driving do you do, and how often do you have passengers?
Hubs and I have a very short commute, for SoCal, we only charge once a week, on cars that have a 270 and 310 mile range.
And don't ignore used. We picked up a VW ID.4 for $18,000 below new price. It was only 6 months old and had less than 2,000 miles on it, and it's been a great car.
Born and raised in Utah, and it is beautiful.
Shame about the people, though.
In some ways, it looks like something from a Sci-Fi movie, except that, rather than being dystopian, it is a rugged, wild landscape of silence, shadows and light, rich color, and timeless beauty.
To live in a place like this would be challenging, but to visit it, to even know that it exists, is a privilege.
It is, indeed, as if the gods lived here.

@Melissabeartrix the build quality of Chinese brand EVs is excellent, and they are way cheaper
My household is 2 EVs, both built in the US, and the build quality is excellent on both.
A Tesla wasn't even on the list while I was looking, and there are a lot of other options out there.
Under the weight of all this crushing Fascism, I want to remind everyone that Iβm a badly underfunded teacher in a badly underfunded alternative school in the poorest city in New England. I could use your support to continue helping kids prepare for this fucking awful world that is being dropped on them.

Hereβs a couple of my students building a hot air balloon together. The one holding it just graduated and is headed to college!
TFG is on record calling veterans losers and suckers.
Pres Biden has a record of caring & providing for veterans, #TFG eviscerated their care & plans to make steep cuts in funding:
"Here are additional cuts Republicans are proposing under The 2025 Project produced by The Heritage Foundation:
-Ending disability compensation for veterans
-Ending enrollment in VA medical care for some veterans
-Placing a 10 year limit on disability claims for veterans"

Climate change is supposed to give SoCal cooler, wetter winters and hotter summers. So far we haven't seen much of the hotter, just the cooler and wetter.
While the rest of the country has been baking, my part of sunny SoCal has been dealing with cool, cloudy weather. My parrot is not happy, she likes warm days.
Next week she'll be happy.

We have ginger growing beautifully, in coastal Ventura County. We planted it next to a fence, in the shade of an orange tree. It seems to be happy there.
Pretty goddamn wild for the Supreme Court to give the president the powers of a king just three days before July Fourth.
My fellow citizens: It is all the more critical that we unite behind Joe Biden and elect a Democratic Senate and House to, I hope, reform the Court but mostly to prevent an immune king--in Sotomayor's word--from gaining power. Quit the carping. Ignore The New York Times. Get to work.

Autism is generally described as a spectrum. The presentation in any individual can vary widely.

In case youβre curious about my parents, hereβs one of the many similar things hanging in their house:
Just spitballing here, but probably the best way to defend against the worst Presidential βofficial actsβ hypotheticals resulting from the Supreme Courtβs immunity decision is not to elect a convicted felon to be President.
