Local politics news: PA state house has a special election coming up next month for the 197th district (incumbent had to resign for committing felony embezzelment, lol). Should be a no-brainer because voter registration in the 197th is 85% Democrat, but wait!!! Local Republicans scraped up a few voters to file a challenge to the Dem candidate's residency status. Seemed like it wasn't going to work, because although their claim was based on his house's low rate of water/electricity use meaning he didn't actually live there, the utility companies testified there wasn't enough evidence to support it, and the guy produced a bunch of supporting documents and witnesses who said they'd seen him living there.

But wait again!!! The Republican judge hearing the case decided she was convinced anyway and threw him off the ballot today, and golly gosh, it seems the filing deadline was Tuesday, so the GOP candidate is now the only person left standing and a surprise Republican pick-up in North Philly now looms.

What a series of happy coincidences for the GOP.

regional resilience to supply chain disruption is kinda important imo probably more so than optimizing GHG

Aren't container ships a major contributor to non CO2 emissions due to nasty-rear end bunker oil they burn as fuel? I suppose the emissions per unit of goods transported is relatively low due to the amount of stuff you can pack on, but like everything else there's probably several models of food production and transport that are much better than our current system. I love to read stuff about this since it isn't an area I'm well studied in.

this is only tangentially related to GHG but is awesome anyway if you're a nerd

A retired veteran who later became a construction worker at one of the plants doesn't have many nice things to say about Trump.

"Don't talk to me about that man!" Marvin Floyd huffs, rolling his eyes and setting up a shot at the pool table. "He is going to be no good for this town, and none of these people get it."

Marvin is the fuckin man

e; jesus this article is sad. It is probably good to remember not all trump voters are white supremacists lusting for muslim death. They are p fuckin dumb though

If I drink beer I like light stuff that I can joyously quaff

Tastes better and tends to be cheaper, and I typically only want beer after a long workout or working out in the sun or smtg, and cracking some 7% monster with a 95 whatever bitterness rating after that sounds awful
