    If it were a human driver I would say they were out driving their headlights Shouldn’t a fully automated vehicle not do that? In medicine we would call this a “never event”

    Not sure about ND or Cali or the various other areas, but the crude in Texas is expensive to get out of the ground and to refine. It doesn’t take much of a drop to shut down the whole industry here. Anyone who has been alive in the past half century should understand this. Yet here we are edit other than refining, obviously

    Yes great book. I would argue many / most brought a sense of defiant independence from centuries of fending off the various iterations of “the English” as Danes and the like. They had a medieval, ruthless ass whipping mentality, which some scholars point to as a big reason the US entry into WWII was so successful

    I caught the tail end of an NPR segment yesterday evening that was talking about grassroots GOTV efforts in the RGV to appeal to voters by going specifically after Mexican Americans rather than “Hispanics” or Latinos,” and focusing on their cultural pride and using cultural and musical icons to energize them. Apparently it’s a novel and as I mentioned only grassroots approach, not really supported monetarily or on social media by the Democratic Party’s machinery at any level. They contrasted it with the more organized outreach being done with mobilization in the Puerto Rican community nationwide. There are over 9 million Mexican Americans in Texas. This seems like a huge blind spot to me, as a white dude. Am I missing something?

    Do you know who Kenneth Follett is? He wrote one of the best spy thrillers ever, called Eye of the Needle, but then he started writing sweeping historical novels about England. One called Winter of the World (book 2 of a trilogy dealing with the 20th century) examines in detail the rise of fascism in Germany, along with the (narrowly) defeated attempt to bring fascists into power in England. In both cases, there were people of different income levels, some really really smart, who were generally good people. Many were close friends, and even family members. And they went on to commit some of the worst atrocities the world has ever seen It’s a quick read, and can be read as a standalone, although the first book in the trilogy is fantastic as well. You should read it to get an idea of how this could get really bad really quickly with a Trump win

    As the father of 2 boys and 2 girls, in my experience it goes beyond this. Definitely warrants it’s own thread after the election
