Quick point of clarification, the official name of the Mormon church is, “The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.” They don’t actually want to be called Mormons, and instead ask to be called LDS for short. Also, they consider themselves a protestant sect.

All that said, the Mormons are bad and nobody should join them.

How exactly does a motorcycle that gets 60 mpg (3.92 l/100 km) take more energy to move a single person that a car that gets 25 mpg (9.4 l/100 km)? Notice that almost nobody carpools in America, which is the subject of this post.

Also note that almost all motorcycles sold worldwide comply with Euro 5 emissions standards.

The only thing that will keep Trump off the ballot at this point is his death.

Not sure if his death will do it. I can imagine them doing a Weekend at Bernie’s with him until after election day.

I fell into this trap. We have a nice, fancy, efficient EV that’s my daily driver, and a larger, less efficient gas vehicle that doubles as the family car/road trip machine that she dailies. We work roughly the same distance from our offices, but on days when she has to go across town on an errand, she takes the EV. It makes sense to save gas and whatnot.

Rims are fucked. I think she’s rubbed them on every available curb in a 25 mile radius. She doesn’t care. Fuck me for wanting a nice car I guess.

Just remember, it takes less delta v to shoot things out of the solar system than it does to shoot them into the sun.

We can’t have a third party that is viable while we have first past the post voting. We need election reform to include new voting procedures like ranked choice voting or something similar along with the elimination of gerrymandering.

This is why I never got into Twitter. The OP is in the middle, the reply is is at the bottom, and the OP’s reply to that response is at the top. How does that order make sense?

From the third sentence in the wiki page:

It is, however, so extremely reactive that it is not encountered in everyday life.

So yeah, not at all stable.
