The conventional wisdom in home building was that constructing units that are both energy efficient and powered by renewable energy substantially increases the cost. But two new affordable housing developments in Northfield and Faribault show otherwise.

A Christian Nationalist group booked two meals at a Tennessee restaurant without revealing who they were. When Saffire found out, it pledged to give any proceeds to charity. Doug Wilson’s allies promptly canceled—and cried persecution. www.friendlyatheist.com/p/a-restaura...

I mean, here's you answer. People aren't "voting to end this stuff" as much as we think we are. That's... why I'm beating the drum as loud as I can with this whole "Hi, urban blue voters! Farm workers need you to commit to ending slavery thing." bsky.app/profile/meem...

Not going to lie. It's fucking infuriating seeing all the praise for Klobuchar (rightfully) eviscerating Schmitt... She could have been using that skill this past year and a half, she should have been using it to fight for US, for MN... Instead she voted to confirm Trump's nominees.

Well, that’s not the opening paragraph I expected.
1. Introduction

In the 1988 sci -fi roleplaying game Cyberpunk , the European Currency Unit serves as the global currency (colloquially referred to as “euro dollar”, “ed" or “eddie”) . In the story, the dismantling of US
democracy, a sovereign debt crisis and geopolitical mistakes
trigger the collap se of the United States . The European Economic
Community steps in and uses its well -regulated banking system and
single currency to displace the dollar’s hegemonic role.

In two U.S. cities, new technology is rewarding slower driving with a quicker commute
Albuquerque, New Mexico and Portland, Oregon have introduced traffic lights that are red by default, and turn green faster if drivers approach while going at or below the speed limit.

Underappreciated: US farmland *already substantially produces energy, not food*, and does so very inefficiently. Corn ethanol (~40% of all US corn) requires about 100 times more land per vehicle-mile driven than solar photovoltaics -> electric vehicles. Shifting corn to solar *would free up land*.
