That 800k number is the saddest I've felt since the morning of the 5th. Wtf?

NIMBYs everywhere, go figure.

The "blue hydrogen", "produced from natural gas which is then sequestered" bit is a ridiculous stretch though. Forcing byproducts back into the ground is one of the "justifications"/"pros" for fracking.

The article is not written for them.

Someone didn't read the article...

I mean, if you have negotiable standards of personal comfort, and poor credit, it becomes difficult to build up that level of crippling debt.

Personally, those are both a requirement and a given.

What about my comment implied I didn't realize that? Anyways, Raktajino was also consumed a lot on Voyager. Its strange that Quark focused on Root Beer in light of all the other stuff people drink, other than, hey, this is the only carbonated thing they drink that's not caffinated or alcoholic ... but that wouldn't be true either?

He did say "Starfleet" drink a lot of it, not "humans", so maybe it is just that pupular with Vulcans, Andorians, Tellerites, etc.

I'm still smarting from the betrayal that is Diet Barq's

I still refuse to believe Starfleet's go-to drink is caffeine-free.

You have NO idea how right you are.

Anon's gender is unspecified and their profile pic is masculine, but I'll take your word for the gay part.

Doctors and nurses worried they will have to grow a spine and do things the ways their forbears did in order to help their patients. Precious few of mine, or my wife and kids' doctors, have been interested in doing any more than the bare minimum they could, both to stay out of trouble, and moreso to keep from getting in trouble(mostly, having to expend any effort to ensure insurance paid them).

It sucks that last bit goes with the job description, but this "the system mostly works"-state we've been in for decades was both a fluke and a lie, where healthcare is concerned .

Needed a follow up for people that answered yes, "did you realize it before, during, or later? If later, how much later?" Young people are oblivious to their own feelings and the feelings of others. According to the down-votes, are trans women supposed to be the exception or something?
