In response to seasonal blends, California requires their own special blend that no other state uses. Almost no refineries outside California make this exact blend (only a handful do, and only for the California market). The regulations and equipment cost CA refineries billions more- costs that have to be passed on to Californians. California can't easily import standard gasoline from the Gulf Coast or Midwest via pipeline—the fuel literally wouldn't meet the state's specs. The state is essentially a "fuel island," relying on its own refineries (or expensive ship imports from Asia. With CA refineries being chased out by Newsom’s hostile policies, this is only going to get worse for Californians.

@TrueNorth02 @FCBx21 @StanleyRoberts Virtually all US refineries have seasonal blends, meanwhile it’s the state legislature that raises gas prices through taxation, beyond that of typical supply and demand issues, such as the war in Iran creating major supply shortfalls.
Now who started the war in Iran? Hmmm

Someone stuck this on the pumps at Airport Blvd South San Francisco #costco. And no I’m not making a political statement I’m just showing you what I found. #GasPrices #gavinnewsome #sanfrancisco

California gas is up to $2.00 more per gallon vs other states. That’s a big difference and it’s going to get bigger as 2 major refineries fleeing California this year. One is closing at the end of this month. That’s 20% of California’s supply gone! They’ll be reliant on countries like China because of their policies and mismanagement. California under Newsom also has the highest state gas taxes in the nation. It’s supposed to go to roads, but California ranks the worst roads in the nation.

California led by Newsom is ranked #50 (DEAD LAST) with WORST AIR QUALITY when compared to every single other state despite taking BILLIONS $$$. The COST FOR GAS IS WORST in California vs every other state and is widening more every day. It’s up to around $2.00 per gallon difference. The costs are rising much more in CA as one major CA refinery closed and much more pain expected when another major refinery closes this month and flees the state. That’s 20% of CA refinery production gone this year under Newsom and will cost Californians not only at the pump, but putting them in danger of shortages and reliant on countries like China to ship oil half way around the world. What has Newsom done to keep refining in California or lowering state taxes? The gas tax money is supposed to be going into improving the roads, except California roads are a disaster and has recently ranked the WORST ROADS in the nation.

Your dumb as rocks!!!
First, let’s ground them in reality:
California gas has literally always been higher than the national average. Why? Because the state actually restricts dirty oil and enforces clean fuel standards. That’s why the skies over LA aren’t apocalyptic gray anymore, they’re blue, and people can actually breathe without coughing up a lung.
Second, blaming Newsom for global prices is cute, but let’s connect some dots: the U.S. basically fuels Israel’s military adventures, which shakes up the global oil market. Surprise, when the world’s oil flows get disrupted, everybody’s prices spike, not just Californians.
And before anyone whines about “food prices”: fertilizers, seeds, irrigation, all that depends on energy. War-driven spikes in oil don’t just make your tank cry; they threaten actual food production. So yes, if these trends continue, it’s not a meme anymore, real scarcity hits.
Sticker guy wants to point fingers at Newsom? Cute. Reality says: this is a global mess disguised as local outrage.

@FCBx21 @StanleyRoberts Newsom has highest gas taxes, requires expensive seasonal refinery blends raising gas prices and has 2 major refineries closing and leaving the state due to Newsom’s bankrupt policies.

Visibility matters, now more than ever.
On International Transgender Day of Visibility, we’re reflecting on the stories that often go unheard, and the spaces that are still being fought for within football and beyond.
We’ll Go Down in History tells the story of @Trukunitedfc , a transgender grassroots football club built on community, resilience and the simple right to belong. Set against a backdrop where trans people are still being pushed to the margins, the film captures both the challenges and the joy that exist within the game.
Through figures like Lucy Clarke, a trailblazer who has spent years carving out space in football, and Emily, representing the next generation, the story highlights not just individual journeys but the importance of support networks, visibility and opportunity.
Because at its heart, this is not just about football. It’s about people, about identity, and about creating environments where everyone has the chance to feel seen, supported and included.
In a time where trans voices are too often reduced to headlines or debate, stories like these remind us of the human experiences behind them, and why visibility, representation and allyship continue to matter.

🏳️⚧️Towards Trans Liberation, Together🏳️⚧️
Today, on Transgender Day of Visibility, we celebrate not just the resilience of trans people everywhere, but the commitment to an overall demand for Transgender freedom and liberation. Today is also a day for people everywhere to take up the struggle alongside Trans people. This day is a reminder of what is at stake and a call to move beyond symbolism towards organized movement for our rights, dignity, and liberation.
The far-right crusade against trans people—especially trans youth—is a calculated political strategy by the ruling class that attempts to divide us from one another. The same forces that slash wages, gut unions, defund healthcare, and wage endless wars believe they can use Queer & Trans people as a convenient target to distract working people from the real source of our misery: a system of billionaire rule that treats human life as disposable.
Trans Day of Visibility is an important day to take action towards building collective power strong enough to create an entirely new system—one that prioritizes humanity over corporate greed.
That means standing shoulder to shoulder in the struggle for a better world. Trans liberation advances when we all fight back as a unified force–to defend our rights, dignity, and communities.
Fight Anti-Trans Bigotry! Trans Liberation Is Everyone’s Fight!
