  It’s stupid to just target SUVs. I’m not anti-SUV at all but all they need to do is give you a fine if you don’t park inside the lines alongside the street. If your car doesn’t fit then too bad.

  In Texas we had a big freeze a few years ago and much of the state lost power. My house only got down to the 60s when it was well below freezing outside with no power inside.

  Doesn’t seem that bad to me. It’s not like they’re the only ones on the ship.

  There’s plenty of engineers that are bad at math and science. They just worked hard to get where they are (or they got lucky).

  I continue to use Firefox because I started using it a while ago and would rather not switch. I have to use Edge for school and it’s legitimately equal to Firefox in many ways. With Bing AI added, Edge blows Firefox out of the water.

  Voting requires you to be legally allowed to vote. This just makes it easier to verify who can and cannot vote.

  The UK has driver’s license so why not voter ID?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Parents used to warn their kids that literature would rot their brains. Then it was the radio, TV, and video games. Now it's TikTok.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Just so you know, newspapers used to be pretty terrible in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. They were ripe with exaggerations and sometimes downright lies. The issue with TikTok and social media in general is how easy it is for absolute idiots to spread lies and harmful information to children (and naïve adults).

  Here’s an article on the topic from the New York Public Library.
