  • I’m very happy with my 24 solterra, it’s pretty much Toyota, but it’s the best performing Subaru I’ve ever had. A shame there aren’t more Americans interested in buying them.

    We had a loaner vehicle for a weekend, the Crosstrek wilderness, and I was talking with the car brained boss about getting the solterra back, I told him I miss the power, he heard “I’m going to miss the power” thinking the internal combustion engine was in any way an improvement to the all electric, I told him besides the engine noise there is nothing the ice does higher numbers in than the all- electric.

    It’s half the price of most new cars, and it blows everything but the highest performing cars (and other electric vehicles) out of the water.


  • Microwave chocolate chips until soft (try stirring them after about a minute in the microwave, they sometimes keep their shape despite being melted.)

    Add smooth peanut butter to your taste, microwave again for another 30 to 60 seconds, stir to combine, pour in chex mix, gently stir to coat the cereal

    grab a gallon size ziplock, add excessive powdered sugar to ziplock (the extra will fall off the cereal into the bottom of the bowl), add chocolate peanut butter coated cereal to the ziplock, seal ziplock and shake the snot out of it,

    Pour into your potluck bowl or take the bag as is.





  • But mother in law didn’t want to make it “too tight” so it wouldn’t cut off poor baby’s leg circulation…

    Nevermind the thing is so stretchy it could probably fit a pre schooler, now I’ve got very dirty hands and a very angry child, and I probably need to break out the steam cleaner.












  • I used to be dismayed that fast charging the electric car ended up being about as expensive as filling the tank with gas (price per mile), because damnit electricity should be cheaper than gas, and I was having to wait “at the pump” for longer periods of time. But it still made up for it because outside of road trips I never had to use the fast chargers.

    Now it’s work the wait, because even 60 cents per kilowatt (which is still so much bullshit) I go so much further per dollar than 6 dollars a gallon gas.
