So I guess X is past the “deny there was antisemitic content” stage.

Also, the hot take from Ken Paxton

Paxton claimed to be "extremely troubled by the allegations that Media Matters, a radical anti-free speech organization, fraudulently manipulated data on X.com."

Freedom to do what, Ken?

I wind up getting claustrophobic in briefs and have to adjust a lot more than when I'm in boxers. And I bother with wearing boxers because they are softer than the fabric of the pants I wear.

From another news story posted here yesterday or the day before: vent hoods are not strong enough to get all the contaminants.

You may like the weather changes, but you are not going to like the food insecurity and drop in quality of life when food- and goods-producing regions are unable to produce food or goods.

Mark Rober has a great video on bedbugs: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2JAOTJxYqh8

He finds that Diatomaceous Earth, steam, and heat are the way to go

This is doable but the barrier to entry is high: a large-scale industrial carbon capture machine costs $750 million.

Edit: graphite is used in batteries manufacturing

Then it might not work for your situation. If you do want an EV then you may have to wait until they can improve charge times. Or you may have to run an extension cord or something.

I work from home and I don't roll coal, so I feel like I'm doing pretty good.

...are you saying that the deaths of these activists were justified?

It takes approx 30 min if you use a supercharging station and you're going from low to full. But EV owners can have the option to charge overnight at home if they have a lvl 2 charging station. So in a work commuter situation you don't spend the 5 minutes to get gas if you have an EV, but in a cross-country driving scenario it will add time to your trip. Ultimately it comes down to what kind of daily driving you do.
