Or just, you know, walk outside in the fresh air, find a nearby tree, and knock on it...

"It's pure puffery"

How exactly are House Democrats supposed to revoke the Exchange Stabilization Fund or change the Defense Production Act when they don't have a majority in the House? All they can do is signal what they intend to do if they regain the majority.

I don't know that I agree. My dad used to be pretty solitary when he was younger, but now that he's retired, he's constantly socializing and has built a large network of friends (which is really good for his mental health).

Totally agree with this. People are usually pretty eager to help out (particularly the introverts - this can give them a momentary break from socializing, while alos making them feel included).

Same situation for me - my wife is an extrovert's extrovert, and I am on the introvert side. However, I'm the one who organizes and hosts a quarterly cocktail party. It's a lot work - after every one of these parties I tell myself "I'm not doing those anymore". But I've received so much positive feedback from the attendees that I end up doing it again. It ultimately is very satisfying and worth the effort for me.

Good luck to the poor shleps trying to make a living performing "white collar tasks" I guess, right? They can all go be poets or painters...

Yes, better to listen to Fox News / OAN/ Newsmax/ The National Review. Now THOSE are unbiased news sources!

So then who should be "in charge of the details of the economy"? Multi-national corporations? The Trump Family? How's that working out for everyone else?

"sustained anti-capitalist propaganda campaign"... LOL

Long Live KEXP!

Wow, you're right. His paintings are amazing!

Children of Time is fantastic! I ended up totally rooting for the spiders in the end.

I love the Chevy Bolt. Wish I could find one for a decent price in my local market.

As I'm sure the commentors here from outside of the U.S. can plainly see - it's going to be a long road to get regulations in place to somehow incentivize smaller vehicles (and that's assuming we ever have a functioning government again). For Americans, a lot of our self-image/worth is tied up in the vehicles we drive. I suppose it's a combination of cultural history (hyper-individualism) and decades of marketing and advertising from auto manufacturers.

Okay, then sell your huge diesel pickup. Or is it just too much fun!
