@gwynnion@mastodon.social Tim Walz, could have been President. And even if he didn't win, his loss would have been by a small margin.
There was no way, Kamala Harris was going to win, anymore than Hillary Clinton was going to win. And it has nothing to do with them being a woman. It just has to be the correct individual, which neither of those two were.

Politicians commonly claim that the #USA has been a "beacon of #democracy" for the past 250 years, at home & abroad.
The #US intervened in foreign #elections at least 128 times between 1946 & 2014, to sway outcomes in its own interests, usually to prevent #leftwing parties from coming to power.
I don't mind talking about the situation the #USA once in a whole. But when it become the only thing people ever talk about, it wares upon me. It's no wonder why I don't want to go out anymore. #mentalhealth #politics #stress #burnout

Signs.
We were coming out of the grocery store parking lot when Mrs. Miasma saw them.
A thin line of protestors sprinkled along the sidewalk across from some federal agency offices.
Protest signs read "I WANT public education!" and "Save our national forests"
I counted about thirty people. I thought about pulling over to take their picture, but then I realized that would be the wrong thing to do these days. Instead we waved and gave them thumbs-up.

CBC: Tesla products now excluded from B.C. Hydro rebates in response to U.S. tariffs
B.C. Hydro has excluded Tesla products from its electric vehicle charger rebate program in response to U.S. tariffs.
The rebate program allows British Columbians to get up to $350 to purchase and install an EV charger in their homes.
As of March 12, Tesla chargers, energy storage batteries and inverters are not eligible for rebates, according to B.C. Hydro. Those who have purchased or received pre-approval for their Tesla products before March 12 can still qualify for rebates.

If you're from #Canada, read this story (which I personally believe to be true), and save the date. Might be when the war with the US escalates.
Yes, the two USB sticks linked there (there are pictures) are identical. They're literally the same usb stick. Not the same model, but actually the SAME usb stick, back in time. I believe this story to be true. Laugh all you want.
