Mice are very bad at math because for them, 1+1=8

...you......you understand that there are more varieties of mouse than just the household pest, right?

And....that these mice fill an ecological niche in their respective environments......right??????

Loud roars would have been scary. Thankfully it was just tiny squeaks.

I have a need

But do you need to wrap them in duct tape the same way you’d do with a hamster?

if the nest is squeekin don't come a peekin

Because mice are so rare in the wild, homes, businesses, and farms.

Never would I imagine that somebody would have difficulty breeding mice.

Cool. Now do it with dinosaurs you cowards

“Not if I have anything to say about it.”

• mouse that’s about to get some

Please someone tell me there is a webcam for this. I want to hear the little squeaks.

This is the cutest reddit title. Woo-hoo for endangered mice! :,)

You're going to be ok, just take some deep breathes before you launch into another unnecessarily long diatribe about how you always need to find the bad in the good rather than just be happy that at least we are transitioning to a world where we might have clean air and water eventually. What will you do then?

They don't though. And my city has had an explosion in the local population so I'm gonna double down on the "fuck wild mice in peoples living spaces" talk.

Do research and stop talking out of your backside. It's good for ya.

>It's a bit of a silly question isn't it?

So yes... got it. At least you didn't back down from your silliness I guess.

You said yes, I get it.

I initially read that as moose and clicked on the article to see if they had a video clip of tiny moose squeaks.

I suggest you do some actual research...

https://afdc.energy.gov/data/10962#:~:text=This%20chart%20shows%20the%20vehicle,highest%20count%2C%20followed%20by%20Texas.

There's a reason your article didn't show absolute sales figures and only showed sales growth. Start with a tiny number in 2021 and triple it in 2022, and while the percentage growth will show 200%... there are still only a tiny number of sales in that state.

Your link suggests Mississippi saw a "HUGE" increase in Hybrid and EV adoption. Note that they didn't break out the Hybrids from the EVs.. and most people would consider "EVs" to represent the plug-in variety. Why is that?

Most EV sales in the US are in the wealthiest states in the US, as can be seen in my link above. California, Washington, Florida, New York, New Jersey, Illinois, and other wealthy coastal states. It also just so happens that most of these states are participating in the ZEV tradable credit program, and also offer state EV tax credits. The states with the most sales have also benefited the most from federal EV tax credit programs over the years; essentially transferring wealth from the entire US taxpayer base to those specific states.

As long as they poop/pee outside and only take what they are given I'm open to the idea.

So yes, got it.

It's a bit of a silly question isn't it?

Yes or no.

😉

Trying to sum up a complex situation with a single yes or no question isn't doing anyone favors. I never stated EVs weren't a better solution than doing literally nothing. I went into the details and grey areas that no one likes to think or talk about. I know... thinking hard... details hard. Me drive car fast. Me save / me don't care about environment.

When you delve into the details about where we need to go, and where we're going with the goal of reducing emissions, we're taking pretty much the worst and slowest direction we could possibly consider. And who are the main beneficiaries? Humanity, the planet, or a few corporations; including the oil and mining industries, and primarily one specific car company who's leading the way towards a subpar solution and being rewarded handsomely for it?

This is what happens when the corrupt government picks technological and corporate winners, rather than simply taxing that which is bad and letting the market resolve the issue. If long range BEVs are the best solution, the market will push for it. If PHEVs / HEVs are the best solution, the market will push for it. If bikes, working from home, and 4 day work weeks are the best solution, then the market will push for it.

But then what do you expect from government representatives whose campaigns are financed by corporations, who are constantly lobbied by those corporations who treat them as if they're 'great friends', who are allowed to freely trade stock on insider information, and who may be promised lucrative positions once they're out of office.

As if it wasn't obvious, corporate campaign financing and lobbyists have far more money in their coffers than organizations fighting for the environment and the little guys.

Here's the thing...

So the information they matched to you was three people and a white car? I assumed it was at least something unusual, like you had 7 roommates and a tangerine car. You could probably find a house that matches those requirements on any given street. It shouldn't be legal to raid your house for that. People get killed in raids.
