I've decided to start my count over this year, and have edited my year wrapup for 2025 to include political actions. Not really happy that this is a new thing.
Today's action was similar to yesterday's, only in a different nearby town. There were about 200 people present. Lots of signs, none really awesome. I rather liked someone's "they told me it would be bad. Holy sh*t!" where the * was done with a large Christmas bow. Another one said
malice
cowardice
injustice
and maybe some other words ending in "ice", where the "ice" was in a different color, and then the last line was "stop ice"
In car news, we've pretty much decided that we are going to junk the Tesla and buy something different. Not sure if we're going to actually go look at other cars or just stick with the Solterra. It turns out to have a possibly fatal flaw which is that, apparently for battery management, it restricts the frequency with which it will allow fast charging. This would not matter to us except if we tried to go more than 500 miles in a day. This has not happened in the past 40 years to me personally. So maybe it would never happen. When I was young and my parents were doing the driving for vacations, it happened almost every vacation, so it seems like a "thing I might do". We don't have a lot of detail on this; we just heard it from somebody. You would think that this kind of thing would be part of the specifications of the car, but apparently it's not. Now I'm going to Google for a while and see if I can learn anything.
