A Tesla with a 100kwh battery has a range of 335 miles. So 10 kWh of charge is roughly equivalent to a gallon of gas. We also have expensive...

When I retire I plan to trade in my car for an EV. By then I expect charging will not be an issue. In the meantime SO would like to get one when he...

Major score today. 2 for 1 family packs of boneless chicken breasts. One pair per customer. So I texted SO and told him to swing by and get a pair as...

We had gradually been getting warmer until sunday when a cold snap moved through for a few days and we were having dead of winter temperatures (mid...

I haven’t attempted this but theoretically you should still be able to connect an old iPod to a computer and sync it with iTunes?

And now the NH legislature’s republicans are working on an ‘out the kids’ bill that would require school staff to out kids to their parents if they...

Thanks for the update Q. Since you’re so well informed, when is trump being reinstated as president?

I use a ten year old iPad as my media player. Mostly it sits on my work desk. Once in a while I bring it to the kitchen. Eventually pandora will stop...

He was a really nice guy. Definitely a bit of a clown but never mean to anyone in any way that I saw, just a big joker. Our elementary school was...

‘But Ms Yppej why would a guy want to pretend to be a girl? My mommy took me to drag queen hour at the library and he was pretending too. That’s...

You don't think some of the kids would go back to their classrooms and ask "Ms. Yppej, why was that boy dressed up like a girl? What's that about?" ...

What are the current rules/laws regarding forcing parents to do something like donate a kidney to a child that will die without that transplant? Or...

That would seem to indicate that the physician was not willing to do an abortion on a viable fetus without a medical reason. It sounds like "should...

I agree! What a charming house. And I also agree that the enclosed porch is a tragedy. If it were mine I would be strongly inclined to have it...

Seems reasonable to me. I recall reading a similar story years ago about an older lady that did this because she figured out it was cheaper than...

Why would a doc sign off on that. Then the woman would be free to have all the sex she wanted without fear of nanny G coming to punish her. Can’t...

Reading your subsequent responses I am 100% unclear what you were trying to say in this post.

So is your concern that teachers are going to be randomly sharing inappropriate gender specific topics with kids? If it is can you provide some...

Exactly. If there are X number of ‘damaged’ kids in foster care today, once women no longer have bodily autonomy there will likely be 2x or 3x times...

I can yeah. I imagine that there would be a lot more of these kids today if women who knew they weren’t capable of raising them were unable to have...

So what is the answer for the "damaged" children? Just let them age out of foster care and whatever happens to them as they stumble through life...

Perhaps someone can explain to me how viewing every failed pregnancy as a potential criminal act is at all reasonable. ...

I try’s not my affluence that’s showing, it’s my math skills.

To rational people it just seemed odd that you would mention hunter Biden, who has nothing to do with his father’s presidential administration and...

So what do you think about the $2 billion investment that Saudi Arabia made in trump’s son-in-law?

Because ‘the science’ hasn’t figured out how to do that any better than they’ve figured out how to make an ectopic pregnancy viable.

Thank you for sharing. I've always been a fan of anyone who can play a guitar and sing and that was very enjoyable. Honestly, as someone whose...

So you finally admit to having converted to being an anti-vaxxer?

Cheese has gone up here. We buy the sliced store brand and it used to be $6/lb. A few weeks ago it went up to $7. And more exotic cheese like fresh...

The problem with avocados got we’re out. They are back to normal price at the Safeway by us. I can regularly get them on sale for $1 each.

The $4.99 gas was at the Vallejo Costco. I just checked gas buddy and now it's $4.97 there. The cheapest I can find anywhere else in the bay area...

I'm glad to hear that the "secret" about BIL's situation is very much temporary. And I tend to agree with Iris. Money is often the easiest way...

I've thought about getting an e-bike. We live about 2 miles from the nearest grocery store, library, dry cleaner, UPS store, etc. Currently I drive...

Last weekend I went back to a couple of trails that I hadn't been to since last summer. The panorama picture probably won't do the view justice. ...

Considering that the "medical experts" in at least a few state legislatures don't seem to even understand about the absolute non-viability of ectopic...

Keep putting people at risk by not testing when you get sick. I'm sure the person(people) that you subsequently infect will be old or sick and...

LOL. That's the funniest thing I've read all week. Next thing you're going to tell me is that fox news is "fair and balanced".

Personally I think the decision was absurd and just shows that judges can use whatever jiggery pokery they want to come to the decision they desire. ...

I ordered my second batch of nanny G test kits a week ago friday, the day SO tested positive. They came last tuesday and we've used them all. I...

This one rings so true to me right now. As my workometer keeps inexorably ticking down toward zero I'm more and more aware of the time flying past. ...

Just as most people would say that interstate commerce doesn’t include growing wheat and feeding it to your own livestock. But as bae noted according...

Obviously this won't end abortion. It'll just end safe, legal abortion for a lot of poor women. Anyone with enough money who wants an abortion will...

It's interesting to me that we haven't seen anything in the press about all the other florida amusement parks that are going to be losing their...

Because you literally can get anywhere in the city for less time and money than any other method except bike. The subway has never been particularly...

Since you claim you haven’t expressed an opinion beyond timing I’d be curious what your opinion is? Or s that something you’d rather not share with...

Catherine, add me to the list of people here who is so sorry to hear this. Such a difficult situation, probably without a lot of good options and...

Sorry I misunderstood. It wasn’t clear to me that all you were doing was expressing annoyance that I’d called you a reasonable conservative.

Discount the messenger and ignore the message. I get it. I’m annoying. But if you can’t see what’s wrong with what that ugly clown in Florida did...

No. I’m in favor of governors and their legislatures not using their power of the state to retaliate against a corporation that made a statement that...

So we should say "nothing to see here, move along" since at least the state didn't send a militia to Disneyland to point guns at Mickey Mouse's head?

Sure, I guess if one doesn't really care about the first amendment DeSantis is doing a great job. Personally it's kind of terrifying that some...

Well, when you have nowhere to go but up any increase will seem substantial. But my point still holds. If you want people to like you you need to...

Indeed. In two brief paragraphs ldahl has eloquently explained why the Republican Party won’t have meaningful minority support for the foreseeable...

No we don't. https://www.ksat.com/health/2022/04/27/global-hepatitis-outbreak-in-kids-has-san-antonio-doctors-looking-closely-at-cases/ The UK...

I was just at the store and they had not just regular pepper jack cheese but GHOST pepper pepper jack cheese! We already have other plans for dinner...

I tend to agree with you as far as textbooks go. I assume that the result is not so much better textbooks but instead, textbooks from the publisher...
