National parks and protected lands exist too. Conservation is a vital tree-reliant field.

Ok, but overlay El Nino years to get a perspective because those are usually the dry, cold years.

When an infinite growth mindset meets nearly infinite growth potential, capitalists complains about sustainability.

Outgrew pants and never got more.

Seeing Columbo lose his cool part of why that episode is so good. An actual challenge for a great detective.

This is missing the Jareth Collection codpiece.

But why a Belgian waffle?

That grimace deflector is underwhelming. But I guess it counts.

Peak performance does not include a deflector dish?

Have you seen American EVs? Fucking nightmare boxes funding a Nazi. Canada is making wise choices.

This is the kind of thinking that helped me understand the difference between UK and US biscuits, why they are different, how they are different, and how biscuit means “twice cooked” and how after generations they are fundamentally both not biscuits.

Biscuits were par cooked in a log/loaf and then sliced. Toast is closer to OG biscuits than whatever either country currently call biscuits.

I think he just didn’t like living with Rick Berman’s decisions

It’s a missed opportunity to have Ferenti missionaries spread the Rules of Acquisition to Orions

Back when Chinese EVs were banned in the US I looked at importing a Canadian car bought from China. Then the tariffs hit and made everything not worth the work. Such a shame too because Chinese EVs are so good right now.

I always lock onto Picard in that gif and never noticed Riker nearly rolling his eyes as he walked away.

Exactly! There is no cure for a thing which is not an ailment. He chooses to have no hair. Probably a lot easier and faster in the sonic shower. And can be on the bridge during an early hour red alert without having bed head.

It’s because California land is locked up by either entrenched farm families or corporations so building any new infrastructure means buying extremely overpriced land from people who don’t want to sell it. Now you know why all budgets for CA rail explode: owners are jacking up the price of empty land to soak up as many billions as can be offered for the entire project. Farmers are greedy by nature and try to extract as much as they can from everything and everyone, including government budgets.

The only solution for now is to use existing infrastructure until the land can be sold for fair market value or imminent domain. And imminent domain would ruin a political career in the state with fuel for the right wing propaganda machine to smear nationwide.

EV apps track your phone and you. My subaru doesn’t need my phone to work or refuel. EVs are more invasive than regular autos.

I don’t want to use an app with my car. I want a car like I have now, with knobs and only a keyfob required to get in and go. Cars are needlessly invasive.
