As NDN Collective said:
Secretary of the Interior Deb Haaland, in 2020 you opposed the ConocoPhillips harmful Willow Project and now, more than ever, we need your leadership to #StopWillow.
The Native Village of Nuiqsut has made their position clear, they do not consent on this project and Interior & POTUS must listen.

Visual evidence that ventilation is not the solution to gas stoves. Even the most affluent vacation homes omit it.
Plus, it doesn't work well enough to prevent respiratory illness.

Apparently the only EVs the car companies think will appeal to the Superbowl audience are massive, apocalypse- and zombie-defying, monster trucks that also give you long-lasting erections.
Now I feel like I should watch the midnight gospel episode about dealing with death and just cry it out.

You bolt awake in Chicago. You are not online. It is the year 1903. You are the bicycle maker Ignaz Schwinn, and you have a new business plan. The future cannot come to pass. The Ford Motor Company must burn.
Related: There was a conspiracy by General Motors to monopolize and dismantle public transit between the 1930s and 1950s.

They were fined $5,000 (~$57,000 in 2023) for violating the Sherman Antitrust Act. They were doing "embrace, extend, extinguish" before it was cool.
Wow, imagine if Richmond, Virginia hadn't torn up our public transit infrastructure from the 1930s for poorly maintained roads and highways.
Car centered infrastructure is such a massive joke.
