Being in the office I get to eavesdrop on obnoxious conversations. Like some boomer bragging to his colleague that he saved a couple hundred bucks buying his daughter a Lenovo instead of the MacBook she asked for.

He went on and on about how his daughter is ungrateful and only cares about the latest trends.

Christ. Setting aside the misogyny-tinged paternalism, just spend the extra money and get her what she asked for. It’s a computer for college. It’s not like she demanded a new BMW.

@Neblib The NIMBYism and conservatives are basically the same thing going on in the US.

That feeling when you are running a bit late so you rush to your bus stop to find the one bus that services your route passing by your stop several minutes early, and you left your bike at home that day. Oops! Luckily I have other options than a very long hike back, but I wish we weren't in such a chicken/egg problem of ridership/service so my metro could offer more than one a day per direction hit times on more routes (and more routes in general).

@Neblib I love when my drivers use the transit app so I can see the buses location in real time

@skinnylatte@hachyderm.io avatar

LA folks, what’s a good place to wait for 2 hours or so, so that I can easily get to a train or bus at Union Station around 11pm on a Sat night? Like a place with food preferably. Where I can sit with my bags. Play a game on my Switch while waiting. No alcohol, tho I am fine with places with alcohol.

NBAnthony2k,

@skinnylatte I would take the A-Line at Union station station to Little Tokyo and hang out at a place there for a little bit.

It's a super walkable area around the Metro stop(it is little tokyo after all)

Theres a bunch little Ramen bars and stuff. Its pretty lovely. Its not crazy busy at that time, but also not completely empty usually. I think the last train back to Union station would be at like 12:45 am ish.

@NBAnthony2k@mastodo.neoliber.al avatar

Its crazy that just laid off their entire SuperCharger team.

It is REALLY REALLY difficult to justify buying another vehicle that isnt a Tesla, solely because you're shooting yourself in the foot wrt charging. Tesla chargers are just miles better, more convenient and more numerous.

If that advantage is gone, I don't really see how Tesla is going to compete.

    Less than half [of Americans] think electric cars are better for the climate. Pretty damning, considering there is strong consensus that EVs have a lower carbon footprint (even when the electricity mix is pretty heavy in coal).3 Electric cars are certainly better for the climate in the United States.

    This is bad. Let your friends and family know that EVs are good, actually

    The @sltrib in a story today linked to this HHS factsheet about IVF. I had no idea that in several states IVF accounts for a full 5% of births. Also the correlations with wealth and political party are interesting.

    ArrLAMetro is coming to a boiling point over safety after the latest stabbing/murder.

    Lots of anger over Metro's refusal to keep dangerous people off the trains and buses.

    And lots of people saying there's nothing Metro can even do so we just got to accept it.

    Pretty wild conversations happening.

    How do other cities keep their metro systems safe?

    One of my least favorite reply guys on social media is the “you’re just noticing this NOW?!” guy.

    Yeah, man! We notice things when we notice them. If you agree, welcome me to the fucking club.

    Are you the punch-clock of timely awareness or a builder of solidarity? You want a prize for noticing it first, or do you want to actually change it?

    Pointing out that someone is late to the party is not what good hosts do, and just makes people less likely to try and help in the future.

    So… the frequency of visits needed to become a regular at the nearby bar is higher than once a month.

    NBAnthony2k,
    @NBAnthony2k@mastodo.neoliber.al avatar

    @petes_bread_eqn_xls Maybe. Bartenders usually work fixed schedules so if you go the same night every month, you could be come a regular with that bartender.

    Or you need to make your 1 time per month REALLY REALLY memorable.

    This is a pretty cool video. TLDR:

    • Trump is in favor of a 16 week abortion ban. 94% happen by 13 weeks.
    • Kari Lake from AZ is in favor of a 24 week ban, less than 1% happen after 20 weeks and almost all are health related/exceptions.
    • Republican voters are not happy with either of those numbers.

    Women's healthcare will play a massive role in this election and it is vital we get out and vote. We cannot let these nutjobs control healthcare.

    $153 billion

    That’s the number.

    President Biden has cancelled $153 billion in student debt for over 4 million borrowers in spite of a GOP Supreme Court and congress trying to hurt Americans along the way

    This is a huge win

    It’s between a sexual predator with 91 criminal charges or one of the most effective presidents of the modern era

    And for some reason it’s a close race.

    How did China enforce the One Child Policy:

    The policy was enforced at the provincial level through contraception, abortion, and fines that were imposed based on the income of the family and other factors.

    If the family was not able to pay the fee, then their child would not be able to obtain a legal document that was required in order to marry, attend state-funded schools, or to receive health care

    WTF this was brutal
