Sure, but the batteries need to be connected and their power managed for a system of this size. I'm worried about that infrastructure.

Not sayings any of this is insurmountable just identifying likely challenges.

Francis Scott Key Bridge got taken out by electrical failure if I recall correctly 🤷

The humid salty air sure does though! Idk. Maybe I'm being overly concerned with failure modes bc that's what my profession does, but marine applications need to be rugged af.

That environment is so corrosive I'd have to imagine a battery network would be hard to maintain longterm. Cost of maintenence could be a challenge.

Have borders ever served a humanitarian purpose?

To my mind, they are at best bureaucratic and at worst used to exclude, isolate, or oppress.

Online censorship is one of the many levers of state power right-wingers have been pulling to try and snuff out queer and trans existence. But instead of fighting back, some Democrats are helping them at the controls. Read the full #OpEd from @fightforthefuture.org

Why Are Some Democrats Backing MAGA's Anti-LGBTQ+ Censorship?

From late-night host cancellations to removing LGBTQ+ history from government sites, politicians in both parties are contributing to the overwriting of the internet — a place where lots of queer and t...

This whole ordeal sounds like something that, during more normal times, Republicans would have accused a Democrat candidate of doing if elected:

"You can't vote for Obama! He'll bulldoze the east wing of the white house!"

Turns out our corporate overlords got us insurance that doesn't really operate in Oregon.

Like, there are "in network" providers locally, but our insurance doesn't have copays and they doesn't negotiate with any Oregon providers, so AT BEST we get $150 discount off sticker price.

It cost me $630 for a single telehealth appointment with a nurse practitioner using my employer provided health insurance.

I'm really excited to die young because the oligarchs refuse to allow health to be affordable.

God bless America.

I say again.

Every single journalist who doesn't follow this shit up by asking Trump to name a single fire in Portland is a hack and a fraud.

Trump: "I look the other night, Saturday night, Portland is burning to the ground and these people are saying it's just friendly stuff. The whole place is burning to the ground. So we'll take care of that one. That's like an insurrection more than it is anything else. Portland is crazy."

Trump: "I don't think we're necessarily going to ask for a declaration of war, I think we're just gonna kill people that are bringing drugs into our country. We're going to kill them. They're going to be, like dead."
