So my take - probably a bad one - is that EVs aren’t selling well because carmakers are not marketing on, or playing to, their strengths.

Just be sure to grow the appropriate facial hair

Don’t you know? All you need to do is cut back on trips to Smoothie Hut and you’ll be a millionaire in NO TIME. But don’t do that, because every American is obligated to support retail stores and restaurants. Businesses are people after all, and have an implicit right to exist, and if you aren’t doing your part that’s…

The concept of the blue collar rural farmer is largely incorrect now anyway. Most farming is the work of gigantic corporate coops, with the small family farm being all but dead. Not that this makes you WRONG, since the real power behind Trump is the corporate overlord.

“Kamala Harris wants to turn America into Venezuela!” shreiks the candidate also running on a platform of government-controlled commodities pricing, a policy that was at the core of Venezuela’s economic collapse.

Can we assume from the seller name that this jeep also doesn’t actually WORK? Or is “bring a trailer” branding language?

Sure, but that’s another thing we don’t have, and would have to find a way to put into space.

There’s really no point in colonizing Mars. We can never modify its biosphere to be human-friendly because the planet’s magnetosphere can’t protect an earthlike atmosphere from solar flensing, there isn’t enough water even if you melted it all, and the dirt is all lethally poisonous. Mars also doesn’t have an…

You could either build a supportive habitat and pile martian soil over it, or you could build a structure from soil bricks then use membranes to render the interior airtight. Either of these would also require construction equipment, which is automatically that much bigger of a cargo concern.

So what would we actually need to do in order to go to mars?

WELL

Probably by letting insurers sell much worse insurance. I hope all the republicans out there like their corvette (one of only 300 in iron blue metallic, and of those one of only 45 with the cream leather interior, and of those one of only 10 with the brushed aluminum shift knob) getting rear-ended by teenagers with…

Decade and a half of balance sheets or it didn’t happen.

Damn, who knew violent calls to action against the president would upset the secret service?

Inspiring: this 60s girlboss slew with her Pyr-HER-mid scheme!

Article conclusion really capturing that nostalgia for the life-ruining multi-level marketing scam FR. By Mary Kay’s own admission, 83 percent of its sellers don’t make money, which means, since they have to buy their own supplies, they are LOSING money. The actual numbers are likely far higher. Mary Kay and her…

I can’t think of very much stuff nuclear war CAN’T threaten. Maybe bacteria that live in caves? Very small shrimp? The moon?

Hey, want to pay too much for a mediocre car that isn’t in very good shape? What if we sweeten the pot and tell you that the inside looks like a casket for a circus ringmaster with no taste!

You’re in Utah

The idea of having, or not having, an auto industry is an interesting one. In terms of designing, marketing, and innovating cars, America is neck and neck with any other country; possibly well ahead of most. In terms of manufacturing we’ve been steadily losing ground since the 70s. There are many complicated reasons…
