A lot of the battery companies are making a gateway appliance that allow you to draw from the grid or a generator as a backup while isolating your system. The idea is that you move all of your circuits to a new subpanel and place the gateway in between. Bluetti has a pretty affordable one.

Ask the French, they have a good example from 1792.

But of course.

Pretty sure those were for Lance Armstrong.

This a huge one I think many seem to forget. Many people, especially American Christians, have been looking down on Catholics for a very long time.

If I had to guess, to keep rallying their base. They still need continued support from at least a portion of the country to keep us fighting amongst ourselves. Once they have total control, they’ll cast them aside.

It’s a catch-22. If people fight back, Trump & Co steam roll us with the military to quell “the violent left.” As people have remained relatively non-violent, the state keeps upping the ante in hopes that the people respond violently, which in turn “justifies” a violent course of action from the fed. They’re only really heavily antagonizing blue cities.

The purpose of all this is to extinguish opposition in order to transform the US into some bastardized rosey view of the 50s where the majority of people are white Christians, where men are in charge and women keep quiet, and that they can control the economy from on high to further enrich “the right people” while keeping the poors at bay. This is all entirely spelled out in Project 2025. They’re trying to throttle anyone not in 100℅ agreement with their view of the right America.

The first thing these lawmakers need yo realize is that helthcare plan prices on the marketplace are tied to your income. For whatever reason, they think I can actually afford $1500/mo on insurance. I’m all about raising wages for workers, but protections need to be out in place that restrict companies from raising prices just because they can.

Which then leads to the convenient excuse of suspending the 2026 midterms

Yeah but you still tend to be a douche about it

“I’m what?!”

I definitely depends on where in Compton for sure. I worked in an industrial area off Del Amp years ago and it was fine, but I remember getting lost after partying at USC one night and it was pretty sketchy.

My point was that if ICE were serious, they’d be venturing into these high crime areas, not terrorizing families. But then they’d be met with armed resistance.

If they were serious about crime, they’d have gone into Watts and Compton in Los Angeles, or Washington Park/any of the sketchy south side neighborhoods in Chicago.

Wouldn’t surprise me if Newsmaxx opted out to seem “balanced” or some stupid psyop shit

You know something is off when Fox News declines your new rules.

What the fuck is wrong with these people?

Power and money, same as it ever was.

Weeeeeellllllllllllll

Probably forces Uber and Lyft to a negotiation table where they can bargain for better rates, and allows contractors to organize as if they were employees, including the ability to strike.

From what I gathered, it was pretty much a dog and pony show intended to show the world that our military is stronk, otherwise it wouldn’t have been televised.
