Some people lost their shit, and the media made them out to be the majority. Individual states and counties still have more power and influence than you might think.

Not that I'm not eyeing my escape routes to a saner country anyways.

You're talking what's available to employees. I'm talking hiring choices. I'm not suggesting penalizing employees for commuting, although enough working people identify with this non-sense that its not out of the question either. My stance is no more extreme than the absurdity of what I'm against.

Employers should be more about helping with moving expenses if they can't find the talent they want close enough, and if the talent doesn't want to or can't afford to live close-by, look at increasing pay or even moving their operations. Instead of demanding people come off work-from-home to drive who-knows-how-far-away, the rules should say they can't do that. Maybe they could open satellite offices if its worth even half the non-sense they spew.

You've hit the nail on its head.

They should make this a literal law for car commutes. Waste of gas, waste of human sanity, and a bane of CO2 emissions.

I would almost go so far as to call commuting further a mark of a class traitor, but also, to make it worth it, you should be making enough to put you in the top 10% of earners anyways ... I guess I'll specify, you should be netting that much after gas and taxes, and if not, let me ask you: Why, just why do that to yourself?

I'm wondering if this expiriment even really involved modifying the ship's on-board fire-suppression system in any way. It uses sea/salt-water to start with.

You should be terrified that reduced cloud-cover due to the removal of sulfer from marine fuels over the last few years has had dramatic impact, increasing global temperatures.

High-enough temperatures impede plant respiration, so no, reducing carbon output alone may not be enough to keep the planet livable in a term short-enough to prevent ourselves and so many other species from going extinct.

Reducing global temperatures directly may be the only way to stay alive long enough for the effects of reduced/net-zero carbon output to ever be seen by living human eyes.

Its in refference to Israel's pro-genocide supporters in the US and elsewhere. Last I checked, "pedophile" was not one of the accusations against Netanyahu and his cronnies in Israel proper.

I want to build and drive a modernized flail-tank, because existing ones are either too broken-down or still in use, but there's the costs to build and run it I can't afford, plus the fact I need to eat, etc.

I want to say they meant guillotines for the fascists, but if they couldn't think of the right word, I'm doubting their sincerity.

Amazing how OP went to the trouble to include the Motherjones byline, and all these commenters treat it like lies and misguided opinion, meanwhile Democrat Governor Gavin Newsome is literally fighting rootop solar in the largest blue state.

I'm more concerned with getting my children to leave the US, and failing badly, however I try to convince them to move to places with lower waste/consumption per capita, in the hopes they will learn to live like the locals and not be such a burden to the planet, as I have been.

I could have done it with my own braces, but my wife was not the sort to go for such a solution.
