Everything MAGA does is gaslighting manipulation. Here's a little Scripture for Tulsi. (James 1:8) A double minded [wo]man is unstable in all [her] ways. (James 1:25) If any among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not [their] tongue, but deceiveth [their] own heart,their religion is vain.

I don't hate it. I think it's ridiculous to expect people to expend their time & energy on social/political issues independently and not have a means of supporting themselvess. No one is going to agree with every person or talking point. But amplification is important. Purity tests are dumb.

Carbon capture is indeed complete BS. But don't ask the Aspen Institute because they'll swear it's completely viable. I was a sustainability consultant for 10+ yrs & believe deeply in sustainable bldg/ conservation measures but the pie in the sky stuff just makes a mockery of all the legit measures.

Hibachi is a small charcoal grill not a griddle. Just because barbeque is established in the US does not mean the name cannot be used in other places to mean grilling. You are just trying to start trouble. Nope.
coastal-nutmeg (@coastal-nutmeg.bsky.social) reply parent
A barbeque is an outdoor grill. For years that's what they were called: Hibachis, bar-b-cues, grills and how they were sold and advertised, even in the US. Have you never heard an Aussie say throw a steak on the barbie? What do you think they're talking about?

That hurts me to my very soul. The restraint of the Federal style is what makes the WH look at once contemporary and steeped in history. Clean lines & minimal use of decoration pay tribute to an earlier democracy: Athens. The lack of ostentatious ornament alludes to the WH being the People's House.
