Southern California currently has the highest humidity in the U.S., even surpassing Florida.
The dew point over the Salton Sea reached a stifling 81°F, while Los Angeles hit 73°F, comparable to the Amazon rainforest and quite possibly its highest value on record.
My waiter at Chili’s: “You guys got any big plans tonight or is it just Chili’s”
Me, 27 and a father of an 8 month old who can’t imagine anything bigger than being at Chili’s at 8 pm on a Wednesday: “Just Chili’s”
@KyleCherrick My used 2019 bolt was 65% off MSRP. With my 4k federal rebate and 4k Utility rebate I got it for 86% off.
The battery recall replacement with extended warranty was the cherry on top.
@Evautoalex Still charging my Bolt at 110. Coming up on year 2 in January. It’s only ever been charged at home during my ownership. I’m fortunate to have a short commute.

TIL that Driscoll's makes $7B a year and is the "second-highest-earning brand in American supermarkets, behind only Coca-Cola":
▫️Ships 4 billion containers of strawberry, blueberry, blackberry and raspberry to 60 countries a year
▫️began as a multifamily farm in 1904 (still family owned)
▫️patented first strawberry in 1958
▫️in 1989, committed to "a resolution that seemed preposterous at the time: to make all four berries available, in every season, in every part of the world"
▫️this resolution included designing the ubiquitous clamshell plastic container to maximize shelf life and make ease of transport
▫️doesn't farm itself...provides seeds and proprietary instructions for special growing materials/process to farmers (farmers keep 70-80% of revenue)
▫️fastest growing product is blueberries...farmers like it because much lower growing risk due to shelf life (60 days vs. 10 days for raspberries)

Sometimes reality is crazier than science fiction. This is the international space station, carrying humans, passing between my spot in the desert and the moon.
