It's me, I'm bitches.

So, the kakistocracy has decided the best way to deal with the #IranWar is to add more corn juice to our gasoline. And that's a problem.

Most of the gas labeled 88 at American pumps is #E10, 10% ethanol. And ethanol does indeed help make gas cheaper. But it is 33% less efficient, and in hot months dramatically increases smog.

Ethanol is also a hygroscopic solvent. Unless a vehicle is labeled "flex fuel", running 15% ethanol for more than a tank or two may cause damage to seals, rubber bits, and even aluminum. If your engine was manufactured before 2001, E15 can melt your valves. Literally.

It makes the car run less efficiently, produces significantly more #pollution, and can damage many existing vehicles on the market.

Believe it or not, and I'm having trouble, two #GOP Senators said it best when they said: Expansion of #E15: A gift to the #ethanol lobby and a consumer betrayal:

@phanpy@hachyderm.io never stops surprising me with small but meaningful UX details... just saw how it shows alt descriptions as footnotes below uploaded media, and i want to do the same in bonfire... chapeau @cheeaun@mastodon.social 🎩

@inquiline Yeah. It’s a fuckin great time, isn’t it?

hilarious that FIPS imposes requirements upon posix write() return values and not like eventually consistent persistence semantics. cryptography doesn't care about the contents of your hard drive, just the quality of your character streams

This morning I saw my neighbor talking to her cat; it was obvious the poor woman thought the cat understood her. When I got home, I told my dog... we laughed a lot.

#MrMittens is convinced that we would give him more treats if we just had a bit more money. So he spent a little time on #caturday checking for loose change in the chair cushions. Alas, he found no loose change. But we gave him a treat for trying to help.

So proud of my country, #Ireland for standing up and taking the decision along with #Spain, #Slovenia, #Iceland, and The #Netherlands to #boycotteurovision.

It was a small gesture on the scale of things but maybe it inspires others to take action and I sincerely hope that the people of #Palestine are the real winners.

@mttaggart I liked* the bit where they only gave accuracy of transcription a 4% weight but made-in-Ontario was 30% of the score when determining which tool was best for purpose.

* hated, but appreciated the accidental honesty

The Boys stands out because season 5 and its still got good scriptwriting

@decryption it’s so aggravating that for like five or ten not necessarily contiguous minutes in most games they play really well and then they Notth Melbourne for the rest. I keep hoping they’ll do better when they aren’t playing the Giants and they keep not.
