@mdione @rbreich He was part of Bill Clinton's cabinet, so you can assume he means the US federal tax code.

@SkepticalScience IMO, the fossil fuel industry should be wholly seized by the government, so that their profits can be used to push alternatives forward hard. There should be enough dirt on the industry to justify taking them over.

Be prepared for a new round of gaslighting about how dangerous EVs are.

A fire broke out at a parking lot at Rivian Automotive’s manufacturing facility in Normal, Illinois late on Saturday damaging many of its electric vehicles, the U.S. startup said on Sunday.

The fire was at a parking lot on the north side of the four-million-square-foot factory, located 130 miles (209 km) south of Chicago, and the assembly plant was unaffected, the Normal Fire Department said in a statement to Reuters.

@VeroniqueB99 Well, there are dubious folk who may be able to steal your vote. They are trying. They are really trying to steal your franchise altogether.

@tofugolem @gtconway3 Well, I think the media is in it for the ratings. Like when CBS airs the Cowboys vs the Giants, they want to convince you that it will be a good, close game.

Well, and also the media is run by corporations, and ShitGibbon is kinder to corporations.

@pranathar@mastodon.social @flexghost in fact, the Democrats are mostly not making an issue of it, because, Ms Harris is simply a candidate

@LaNaehForaday I apologize for sounding condescending. I sometimes vance.

@GottaLaff R. Bucky Fuller did a book titled “I Seem to be a Verb”. So, what does the verb “to vance” mean now?

@solownh Willoughby? Is that the one that was in that Twilight Zone episode?

@LaNaehForaday I just want to be careful. I do not want to think that the situation is better than it is. If you are behind, you try harder.

@LaNaehForaday Yes, it is FiveThirtyEight. Nate Silver started it and made it a good site. Then they fired him, and he took all his models with him. So it is just not what it used to be.

@stevesilberman He can take care of himself, he don’t need no Sirhan Sirhan to do it for him.

@cykonot @Huntn00 @MichaelTBacon @mapachin I always say, education is done right if the result is that you learn how much you do not now know.
