Climate Change is a much higher priority than Palestine.

Universal Healthcare ranks higher on my list of priorities than Palestine.

We've tried "Not Genocide" for 80+ years, and it doesn't seem to be improving the situation. What would you recommend?

Your scope of analysis is limited to 4 years. There's no long term analysis.

The long term analysis is that both Israel and Palestine have been more interested in conflict than peace for far longer than I have been alive.

The reality is that their little quarrel is pretty low on my list of priorities. I want representatives who share that opinion.

The laws of thermodynamics are sometimes summarized as

  • You can't win
  • You can't break even
  • You can't quit

That summary applies to the Israel/Palestine conflict. Everyone is going to be pissed off no matter what we do, including if we do nothing.

Politically, the best way to deal with Israel/Palestine is "Hey, look, a squirrel".

My favorite was that he came out of retirement after 9/11 to rejoin the national guard, but somehow his second retirement was timed to skip out on a deployment.

(My real favorite part of that is they have Corporal One-And-Done from the Public Affairs office trying to cast shade on a 24-year veteran).

ICEs can refuel during a bathroom break. EVs need a long lunch. Turning every bathroom break into a long lunch makes a 3-day trip into a 5-day trip.

Recharge every three hours?

Masochist.

And I can put in a leather gimp suit and have my partner spank me with a ping pong paddle. You don't shame me for my masochistic kinks, and I won't shame you for yours. Deal?

The overwhelming majority of us don't have a fetish for recharging stations, and don't want to spend 2 hours a day on our vacations to make short-range EVs seem feasible.

400 miles of range is 5 hours of driving (plus enough reserve to comfortably skip a busy, broken, blocked, or skeevy recharging point), recharge over lunch, and another 5 hours of driving. 400 mile range is where road trips become feasible.

400 miles of range, in the mountains, is 150 miles of range.

Gripe #1: From inbox, replying directly to a comment, I get the error "Could not determine post to comment to". I don't have this problem when I am viewing a comment in a post's, thread, only when viewing it from the inbox.

Gripe #2: Tapping the comment in the inbox takes me to the comment thread for the post, but does not take me to the specific comment within that thread. In a long thread, I can't always find the specific comment I am trying to reply to.

Edit: version 0.2.4

Edit2: Gripe #3: haven't figured out how to edit posts within Thunder; had to switch to Connect to make these edits...

 

I am getting this error pretty regularly. I'll see a message in my inbox, and when I tap through to view it in context, it's missing. Can't find a cause or a workaround.
