@the_irv_m_ @TrashPanda08x They push highway projects with full local opposition through all the time. The gridlock exists because people in charge want it to.

@TrashPanda08x Wow. It's almost like you have to ignore that they have a ONE PARTY STATE where you can just commission projects with little to no gridlock.

We can't have this in the US because a farmer will lose 0.5% of their land and less people would drive which would be bad for oil companies. :(

@RyanSchlanser @TripWir65434304 @HazelAppleyard You must have normal-sized feet, I need a good number of washes before my feet are happy.

@TripWir65434304 @HazelAppleyard New socks do feel amazing, so I at least kinda get that one, even if I would never do such a thing

@Truth_matters20 Ah, an evangelic, the people who believe in a hateful Christianity, not an inclusive one.

@gghamari Looks like a regular Tuesday in the US. We have our own thugs from the government.

Just a normal day in occupied, pre-war Iran.
This is what the "No war with Iran" people supp: the suffering and oppression of 90 million Iranians by Muslim Nazis.

@RadLordLewd I'm not sure who this is going for, since left wing people won't watch because she is a monster, racists won't watch because black people are in it, and Christians won't watch because witchcraft.
The few diehard gen x fans who are not online and their kids I guess.

@MindOutPodcast @pubity I'd say the decline of unions, education disinvestment, and wage stagnation.

@n6532l @JillBelch They put them on top of mountains we can't do anything else with anyway where I live so I couldn't say. Though I have seen personal use wind turbines for home power on farms.
English
@JillBelch “Wind farms allow farming to continue around them..”
Ever seen that?
English
Almost every sentence here is wrong
Wind farms allow farming to continue around them, their land footprint is small, &they produce the cheapest new electricity available
Turbines are steel, concrete & copper, & much is reusable or recyclable
Calling it a scam doesn’t make it one.

@fried_deep13090 @flexibledragnet @JillBelch Let me tell you of all the expensive failures and maintenance in the oil and gas industry. Too bad I don't have time to write the Thesis or two it would take.
English
@flexibledragnet @JillBelch While failures are low, 2% will fail in the first 2 years. That's about 4 million dollars just lost. Extreme weather and maintenance issues will take out another 6% within 3 years. A total lifespan of about 18 years and the turbines and blades must be replaced.

@luciacrabs My legs fall asleep because they are often too low for me, so then I am stuck there until the end of time.

@MotorWeek We need to add pedestrian impact tests as well. Vans aren't so bad, but large pickups are just stupidly dangerous to people.
English
In their continuing efforts, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has begun evaluating cargo vans and Class 3 pickups, with intentions on releasing occupant protection ratings for these vehicles this spring. Launching with these vehicles, they are also looking to expand into box trucks and tractor-trailers.

@LinkofSunshine The south has been doing will in the decentralized manufacturing of modern times, they have no union culture so they get paid way less than the rest of the west, while having education level that is not worse enough to be a problem and low taxes.

It’s wild how the world basically runs on nothing but this.

@faith_vtch Living in American suburbs the air is actually so bad outside, especially in the summer. There is more CO2, and other poisons in the air out there.
Especially when you have an old man neighbor that mows daily and idles his project car while smoking cigars.

@odyth @ThingsHiddenn Electricity is abundant, and with a combination of nuclear and the green stuff it could be free.
Or we could nationalize oil.
Radical change is the way.
English
@ThingsHiddenn Maybe stop shutting down oil drilling and refining. Energy should be free and abundant in an advanced society.

The next lockdown will occur because nobody can afford fuel.
No need for another pandemic. You just make commuting impossible.

@PostsNoContext @nocontextmemes 2, since it covers a lot of 1, 6 because obviously, and 9 because then everything else is doesn't matter.
You can't take 9 without 6, or you will spend the rest of your life with a series of gold diggers.

@bradwritesscifi @AgroNationalism The place that was being built was closed down for political reasons, boomer hippies and the oil lobby working together to make Nuclear power less safe.

One of the big problems here is how vulnerable this is to drone attack. It's a national security issue.

FYI, this is what 20 years worth of safely stored nuclear waste looks like. You can fit it in a third of an average convenience store parking lot.

@FargothGares @Boxing_Grunge @TerribleMaps I know math is hard, but the number of immigrants really isn't enough to beat out the locals.

@Boxing_Grunge @TerribleMaps You know that the demographics have changed by an insane degree in an insanely short period of time, but you still plug your fingers in your ears with that six letter word.

@wheatfrom @TerribleMaps I heard of a store or event where you could ask them to deep-fry anything. Americans love a good deep-frier and I know several people who have one at home.
If you like fried food, visiting a state fair is usually a good bet.
English
@RegularEmperor @TerribleMaps People on your side of the pond buy deep fried butter on a stick?
I need to pop over there on a business trip.
Anyone who likes deep fried butter is going to *love* deep fried Mars Bars.

@alanthefisher It's an ambitious project in a country where nothing ambitious has happened in the infrastructure world in way too long. Of course it will have problems, it is also some very nice track and when it is done I will actually travel to California for the first time to see it.
English
do I think that CAHSR and the state of California have had issues with this project? of course, and I have talked about the problems in multiple videos at this point. But also this project is still the farthest along high speed rail project in the country, and thats why its the boogie man to them.
By the way, they are now laying rail on the track bed, its further along than you'd thing based on the singular image that chuds keep posting over and over

English
there are so many astroturfed conservatives against CAHSR because the second that there is a working train between 2 cities in the US that can hit 200mph it is fundamentally over for the argument of "that doesn't work here"
The oil lobby will do everything possible to stop that
Central Valley Politics@CV__Politics
just learned there are actual living humans who believe the california high speed rail project will ever be completed LMFAOOO
