I'm in the final stages of getting on SSDI and I just don't know what to do. If I work through the pain I'm going to be proving them right but i don't have a job and i have no idea how much longer they will drag this shit out on me.

I visited my first psychiatrist this year and told him I have concerns that I was adhd.

I shit you not a fucking Dr of psychiatry told me that was very unlikely because they would've caught it when I was a child.

Fucking moron.

Electric cars are to save the auto industry, not the environment.

I totally agree with you.

And what's even sillier is that examining the facts, Electric cars are better than ice cars anyway.

This philosophy take that op posted about evs being a "rich person's" green solution is a commentary on the general wealth required to own and maintain any car, not anything about ev technology itself.

It is verifiably true that even though cobalt mining and lithium mining are riddled with ethics issues, pollution issues, etc. The battery powered cars that those metals go into are still a net positive on the environment by year 4 or 5 of ownership. We should push for evs to use better battery chemistry but it's not productive to try and shit on evs when battery research really hasn't been a huge focus until recently and there is a ton of benefits.

ev cars were invented right around 1900. Imagine if we were focusing on the development of better batteries with cleaner chemistry, better power density, cheaper costs, etc for 100 years....we wouldn't be having this discussion.

And evs are better for cost of ownership for the end user. You didn't costume brakes nearly as fast, dollar per mile costs for energy (gas or kws) are much cheaper in a lot of places for evs (I know California is expensive for energy, I'm speaking generally), no oil changes, no break downs due to drive train...evs just work until they need tires or a new drive battery in 12+ years.

This argument I'm presenting is purely for the case of EV car vs ICE car. Public transport should also be electrified once the power infrastructure is there. That's the real problem.

The best 2 reasons not to get an ev over a regular car(especially since they are so cheap second hand right now) are 1. long trips being a headache and 2. Your electricity cost is really high.

If you live somewhere where electric is cheap and you need a commuter car an ev is so nice.

Well both for some of us, but it's probably also the fact that you have no energy in your reserves to do your hobbies when everything is so fucking shite everywhere. Can't pay bills, tons of stress, videogames are now revenue generating devices instead of genuine entertainment, and social media on your phone delivers the same dopamine hits with much less effort. Your brain knows this so it makes it harder to work to play if that makes sense.
