Press: NOT LIKE THAT!!!!

Battery sales keep Tesla profitable in Q2 as EV sales still slumped

Tesla's status as a growth stock will require some explaining if this keeps up.

There should be more horror movies based on plastic bags xD It could be a franchise that runs on Netflix or something… 'You know what I fear most? That it will never leave.' xD #funnynotfunny

Know neo-Nazis symbols.

A reminder: some states (including Nebraska) have enacted voter ID laws since the last election.

Make sure you have a legal ID so you can vote.

Make sure your voter registration has your current address.

Make sure you're still registered, even.

DO IT NOW.

for those still unsure, the National Center for Transgender Equality (which ran the 2022 US Trans Survey I’ve talked about) and the Transgender Legal Defense and Education Fund combined to form Advocates for Trans Equality

and they just released this

"especially for those in the news industry – who might actually benefit from what the New York Times Editorial Board considered an 'exciting' contested Democratic convention.

Glaringly, Black women were missing from the calls for Biden to step aside. The graphics showing the legislators calling for Biden to step aside were telling. Most were men. All were white."

"Perhaps what needled me more than anything was that most of the people publicly calling for Joe to step aside were white men, or folks in the so-called 'donor class,' or members of the punditry. Folks who certainly want to win, and who would certainly suffer under a Republican administration, but who wouldn’t feel the full brunt of Project 2025 and –"

MAGA is going to have an absolute conniption fit in November when, according to Constitutional law, and in front of Congress, Vice President Kamala Harris certifies the electoral win of President Kamala Harris.

This is my candidate for best headline from the US presidential race so far:

A wide ask here so please boost: my grandfather is trying to get rid of an old business computer, and I was wondering whether any vintage computer people might want it. It was purchased for $50k from The Ultimate Corporation in the early 80s. This ran the Pick operating system, and my best guess is the hardware was originally manufactured by GE or Honeywell. It's about the size of a half-rack and currently lives in Brandon, Manitoba, Canada. It has sat covered in plastic in a chemical warehouse for the past 35 years. Where do people usually post stuff like this other than here? Thanks!

I knocked over a plant in the kitchen, but my cat saw me, so I had to spray myself with water to show that the law applies to everyone.

No movie has ever grossed this much money at the US-Canada box office in under 36 hours. No movie anywhere. And this is REAL LIFE. This is US. We are writing and making HERSTORY. We must vote like we’ve never voted before for it November 5. WE WILL WIN. SHE WILL WIN. #Harris2024 #kamalaharris #harris #vote

Mastodon for Harris has surpassed $40,000 raised, with 600 contributions ranging from $1 to significantly more. I have increased the goal to $45,000 - considered $50,000 but I hardly dare to think we could raise that in under two days.

The boosts and posts spreading the word are so helpful. And thanks non-U.S. friends and followers for tolerating all the U.S. politics in their feeds.
