Storage is a kludge. Regardless of the power source, we should be building power plants to consistently exceed electricity demand. The excess power can go towards hydrogen production and desalination.

That’s right.

I think this is what I’m looking for. Thank you!

Thanks, but there’s plenty of time for me to screw this up yet!

I did and the one feature she mentioned was that the tiles should be like stones. I guess me figuring it out is part of the gift.

My very own.

Don’t forget that this lady really got on the stage at the convention and shouted the lie that the Biden-Harris administration have been working tirelessly for a ceasefire in Gaza.

Right, but the premise of the question is that the Democrats are no longer viable at the Presidential level either.

I am personally not a fan of the Green Party, but as a point of fact they are more than just Jill Stein. My ballot had Green Party candidates running in three races.

Okay, but the party permitted Biden to campaign for reelection and then decided to run Kamala without a real primary.

I tend to agree, but the people I’m asking aren’t ready to consider anything but electoralism.

California is Kamala’s home state, so I guess it tracks.

Ah, well! Nevertheless,

It mostly makes sense. There are infamous examples of voting being de jure or de facto illegal for groups of people where their suffrage would likely cause significant change. Just look at the USA pre-Civil Rights Act, Rhodesia, Apartheid South Africa, and Israel. I’m sure there are others.

Here’s a link to the paper referenced by the article. Not sure why it wasn’t included with the article. Anyway, this chart stood out to me:

Don’t believe or respect anyone who says the White House is working on a ceasefire deal. This administration has clearly been working on just the opposite.

I think I understand the spirit of your question, but the way you’ve worded it suggests that the law is immutable and/or that lawbreakers are necessarily evildoers. I interpret the question as “without incarceration, what do we do about those who do harm to others”. To that I would answer that we need institutions and programs that provide various types of care, support, and protection to people and that those who cause harm and do not provide restitution to their victims lose access to those institutions and programs. For example, if a child molester’s house burns down, the fire department would not be expected to try and save them. If it was arson then the arsonist might only get fined for creating an environmental hazard and putting adjacent buildings at risk. The lack of a carceral system would make funding available for the above programs and institutions.

If you would not have called Rhodesia or Apartheid South Africa the good guys then you should not consider Israel to be the good guys either.

Maybe. I don’t like Elon or Trump, but I wouldn’t begrudge anyone for entering a raffle for some of Elon’s money.

Is there any downside to signing up for the sweepstakes besides having to sign a pledge?
