He's sure an interesting guy. I wonder if he needs notes to keep track of the names of all his kids with various baby mamas?

I like him and his moxie of biting the left hands that feed him when he's had enough of their BS.

We will eventually need to stop pissing in our pools by burning stuff in the air we breath. Before my massive oak trees fell down from the storms, I felt I could burn trimmings all winter in an efficient fire place or pot belly stove, but my neighbors and others convinced me that the small particles are bad to breath. My fireplace is an original and puts a lot of smoke into the house so I don't use it. I also think it is illegal now for someone to replace it with a more efficient one.

Given I'm and ex smoker as were both my father and his mother... and they were hit with emphysema, it seems wise to watch what I breath so I burn NG for heat now. Ten years ago it was thought to be a clean fuel and the state actually gave incentives to convert vehicles to run on it rather than gasoline...

Musk isn't a dummy so he knows the best way to lower climate change is to have fewer kids... but he went the other way. Maybe he likes solving problems and making loads of money rather than actually making things better.... I know the right wingers hate Gates, but his ideas to vaccinate the poor and cure their diseases so they don't need to have 10 kids to insure two survive to take care of the parents in their old age, will do far more to solve "climate change" than anything. Hell, one of the biggest problems in China now is their economy isn't growing because people aren't having a lot of kids.

Newsom is going to keep our one remaining nuclear fission plant open for many more years. I read it needs so many repairs it will be much more expensive than NG or Hydro but it is "clean" if you don't account for the waste that lasts centuries.

People are getting their winter heating bills this week from PG&E for the most expensive month of the year (unless you live in the desert I guess and don't have solar for AC).... Loads of complaining about how it is up 30 to 50% in a few years.... duh... replacing cheap NG and putting powerlines underground at $1M per mile into the boonies isn't free. They have applied for another rate increase to pay for more of that same. I'm sure Joe will have the shills out telling people it is not Bidenomics inflation and prices are coming down... and they should be happy.

This will be an interesting election.
