  • I get your meaning. It’s infuriating and exhausting that I have to constantly fight for incremental progress and I hate that there are still terrible actors in the party. That’s why I champion progressives and celebrate every time one gets in.

    The fact of the matter is not engaging gets (even more) people killed and I will always hold them accountable but that also means holding myself and the other side accountable. Does it stop at the ballot box? No. You protest, you educate, you arm.

    Translation for this person because they’ve rightfully been misunderstood: Why does it seem like there is a disproportionate amount of tall men ending up in relationships with short women? This seems to be a statistical aberration when compared against other factors.

    The answer is societal expectations of tall men/short women, kinks, standard height deviations among genders.








  • China is making strides in cleaning up their grid, it is by no means perfect. They still depend on coal for about 55% of their grid based on the most recently available data I could find, that dropped about 3% last year thanks to their expanding solar network.

    I do think our grid is much cleaner especially with our plans for new nuclear reactors. However we do not have the complex manufacturing network that China has.

    In saying that we should expand domestic production to strengthen our economic resiliency, especially for needs like housing, food and transportation. This transition can’t be done quickly, doubly so if we’re looking to minimize ecological impact, so in my mind China remains a necessary strategic partner.

    Edit: Fixed the statistic for coal use by China, the first source I used wildly underestimated it.
