@InternetEh @moira Biden also increased the tariffs on Chinese made EVs from 25% to 100% rather than making US companies ACTUALLY invest in their EV and renewable energy departments. These are multi BILLION dollar companies, they can afford it. Cars for 10k, something we don't have here and would go a LONG way in reducing emissions considering the country has decided, once again, to not invest in public transpo. And would be especially helpful to low income folks. The IR Act is helpful but it is not enough, and these companies did NOT need subsidizing, and the 70 Billion they received to do the right goddamn thing should have been invested in public good, like public transpo or healthcare, or subsidizing food costs as climate change has ravaged the ag sector more than it has the fuckin auto industry.

I think I got homophobia'd today! I went into an auto supply store in one of the more rural suburbs in the area after working a summer sports camp bc my car was idling a bit rough and I wanted some fuel system cleaner. I get to the cashier who asks "is that all?"
Me: yup
Him: *pauses* oh you're one of THOSE people
Me: ?? One of what people? 🤔
Him: *pauses, sees the edge of my hospital badge that is mostly covered by my hair but had previously been looking directly at me, wearing the rainbow lanyard I have from my previous college job* so you're a nurse?
Me: no, an athletic trainer *briefly explains my job*
Him: Oh, so you teach people how to eat right & stuff?
Me: sometimes! I work at a HS in Portland rn and-
Him: oh you're a brave one!
Me: ?!? 🤔🧐As I walked out, I realized his original implication was "one of THOSE ones" = lesbian, bc it's obviously that I'm gay for girls is why I know anything about cars, and not that all three of my uncles are mechanics 🙃

@siege I told O it seems to be good movies that didn't make the initial #MovieBowl but either have lasting cultural power or a cult following.
But @derek would have to be the one the give you the full skinny lol

House Party was robbed and Fedi racism rears it's ugly head once again smdh
Y'all know you're wrong for that one bc House Party still gets played on reruns and I haven't seen Pump Up the Volume on any channel since like 1993. #SickoSunday #MovieBowl

@tokyo_0 yes, of course.
Advocating for more privacy and digital safety in a world where we are increasingly surveilled for "reasons" that, at least in the US amount to 4th Amendment violations as corporations continue to work hand in glove with the government in their data sharing endeavors, is the correct position to take

The nice thing about Threads coming here is being able to learn fun new instances and people to block.
If you don't care about my & my friends safety, then I don't care to interact with you. And if I see you advocating for them, even though my instance has agreed to #FediPact I'll be blocking you individually for having zero care for others privacy and safety

@root @DMX I thought rabbit was a he? Fully admit I think this bc they are SO UPTIGHT and so was my stepdad so I saw parallels.
Also, IDK if he was in the original books, but there's also Owl. Who is just,,,an owl.

@sidd_harth0_5h4h personally, it just doesn't feel like my style. Like,,,the IDEA is cute to me when I see it on others, but for me the execution always falls flat and I change into something else/don't buy sheer things
