@npub153s…cvd9 I love these millipedes! They're such a lovely shade of orange. Today I saw the smallest millipede (it was about 7mm long) and I wondered if it might be a newly-hatched one of these.

@npub14g4…mc2e Sorry, I'm confused, is your argument that people are too upset about the US-backed genocide in Palestine or that they aren't upset enough about crimes against humanity in general?

@npub153s…cvd9 It's wild how much Texas has changed in the last decade. It's so awful. I think it's working, though, because it's making me completely hopeless, and hopeless people don't fight to change the system.

@npub153s…cvd9 I feel like whatever the opposite of a "history buff" is, that's what Elon Musk is.
Also, I'm guessing his education in South Africa didn't have a unit on African American heroes.

@npub1g0t…tvm4 In the US, middle-class families have it the worst. Universities offer deep discounts on tuition for poor students, but middle-class families end up paying (i.e. borrowing) the bulk of the sticker price.

@npub153s…cvd9 A better measure of cost than the sticker price is the 5-year cost of ownership. If you factor in the cost of fuel, a Tesla Model 3 costs about the same as a Toyota Corolla, despite having double the sticker price.

@npub153s…cvd9 They dedicated something like 25% of the space to retail, which means now when I go to pick someone up, I have to circle the cellphone lot until a parking space frees up. Waiting in a big parking lot instead of circling the airport was such a simple and effective idea, and they ruined it. #ABIA

@npub1efv…4jx2 This is a great innovation for electrifying delivery fleets like USPS trucks, but it seems like more than a regular commuter needs. I'm fine with stopping for a 15-minute walk every 2-3 hrs on a road trip, and I wouldn't pay more to avoid it. Also, there are only so much battery resources to go around? I'd hate to see us overcompensate with car batteries the way we overcompensate with pickup trucks now.
That said, every single EV on the road is a win, so whatever it takes, I guess.

@npub1hz3…e8f9 I love anoles! Las summer one was living in the plants outside my office window, and he would climb up and chirp every day. Between the drought and the neighborhood cats, it seems to have been a tough year for them this year.

@npub19kr…8m4r I'm interested in your opinion here. Does it feel like crossing a line because it's information about someone's personal life? Or because it's about a celebrity?
Fwiw, I don't have an opinion either way. I appreciated the explainer because I didn't know most of this info, and I guess I care more about how Britney is doing than, say, any professional sports team, which I presume the NYT also covers.

I'd like to make my community a safer and more welcoming place for everyone, though my state government is working hard on moving us in the opposite direction.
