Drove 6,909 miles this summer, used zero gallons of gasoline.

Everyone else still has broken glass all over the ground outside your workplace, right? And mangled office and closet doors that were popped by SWAT teams while clearing buildings after the terror attack at your place of employment? That’s normal stuff, right? Just cool, chill terror attack vibes?

Huge wins here in the second week of the school year.

We asked HHS how the media is exploiting this tragedy for political gain and a spokesperson said their statement speaks for itself.

Guy’s plan was to get onto campus, but the police officer he killed forced him to improvise.

Update from GBI press conference on CDC shooting: Nearly *500 rounds* were fired, with almost 200 rounds striking a total of six CDC buildings. Authorities are asking anyone w/ video of the incident to contact 1-800-597-TIPS (8477), or use the “See Something, Say Something” app -- can be anonymous.

The 14 year old inadvertently implies that I am a Cool Dad.

This is a preschool between the shooter’s apparent location and the CDC buildings struck by bullets.

Multiple buildings at federal agency headquarters being peppered with bullets getting less national play than one might expect.

Lol, not in Florida. Early 90s was peak Florida-Florida State-Miami football all year round. I can tell you more Charlie Ward, Gino Torretta, and, lord help me, even Shane Matthews than any baseball player, anywhere, ever. For 35 years I've thought about Horace Copeland weekly, at minimum.

One less hungry coffin.

Me and the neighborhood elderly going absolutely apeshit at the Publix grand opening.

Just changed the discounted mobile phone plan that I've had since roughly 2003, which was affiliated with a job I had from 2000 to 2011, but which I'd maintained for the past 14 years of non-employment by the erstwhile sponsoring employer.

Checked an item off my to-do list that I added in October 2018.

Selling my third 2013 Nissan Leaf next week. Will be without a 2013 Nissan Leaf for the first time in 10 years.

Gas stations.

I bought sub-$2/gallon fuel on exactly two occasions in Georgia during Trump 1: $1.91 on July 3, 2017 and $1.97 on Oct. 5, 2020. My average price across the term was $2.37.

“… the Lucid Air Grand Touring traveled from St. Moritz, Switzerland, to Munich, Germany on a single charge, traversing 1,205 km, or 749 miles.” For my family of two middle-aged bladders, a tween, and a teen, 750 miles is like a three- or four-stop deal.

Mid-year update: 50,036,060 running and hiking steps and 22,224.8 miles recorded since Aug. 7, 2020.

ATL is good. www.washingtonpost.com/travel/inter...

New York City's population is 119 percent larger than Los Angeles, 212 percent larger than Chicago, 550 percent larger than Dallas, 1,530 percent larger than Atlanta, and 1,641 percent larger than Miami. It's only 5 percent smaller than the other five cities combined.

I did that NYT movies thing but my top 10 was the most born-in-the-70s dad stuff imaginable and I just can’t be responsible for putting any more of that energy into the world.

I love it. www.zillow.com/homedetails/...

Six of the top 10 vehicles in Cars.com’s American-Made Index are BEVs, and only one is from a legacy American automaker. https://www.cars.com/american-made-index/

gonna be a long one

US Army M1A2 SEPv3 main battle tank rolling down Independence Avenue in Washington D.C. last night.

Surely a little too on the nose.

Very Old Twitter Dad buds, I don’t want any of us to get too excited at our advanced age, but I must inform you that I am currently seated in an exceptionally wide chair.

Waffle House locations are generally well situated to be DCFC sites (you want them as close to highway exits as possible), but I don’t see them generating much additional business. Average duration of my 123 fast-charging sessions is just under 17 minutes.

Spent $51.58, saved $56.88. Big Publix win. Wow. Big win. Wow.

On Sunday, May 25, 2008, the day before Memorial Day, I paid $4.32 per gallon in West Palm Beach, Florida, or $6.40 per in today money. Total of $56.58/$83.79. Took me 57 days to use that tank. Bit of my personal fuel history, that was. Did you like that?

“If there are any clear winners when it comes to Golden Dome it’s the defense industry.”

Saw a driverless Waymo I-Pace in Atlanta, at Buford Highway and N. Druid Hills Road. Unexpectedly, I’m actually excited about these.

Today – 3,423 days after buying our first EV and 3,358 days since becoming a two-EV household – we finally had a dedicated 11.5 kW charger installed. A standard 120-volt wall outlet really is sufficient for more use cases than people considering an EV, or who even already own one, probably realize.

Nine-hundred thirty-eight days later, happy Action Button day to the dirtbags who observe. youtu.be/Fi2d7mN-EzU?...

New ad format.

So far this week I’ve bought a Chromebook, four pairs of Nike running shoes, and a set of tires, none of which I’ll actually need until October at the earliest.

Haven't bought gas in 1,198 days.

My dishwasher was made in Germany, uses no more than three gallons of water on its least efficient cycle, and probably consumes less than 200 kWh of electricity per year. My goodness, that dishwasher fucking rips.

The ultimate accolade.

Did y’all see that tiny ID. Buzz that carried the game ball out before the USWNT-Brazil friendly today?

I am shocked this bum is 37 years old. Guy looks a rough 56. defector.com/patrick-mcaf...

Hi.

Eighth grader's team won their second straight DeKalb County middle school track championship, and she finished 2nd in 800m (2:35) and 3rd in 1600m (5:43), and the 4x800m team she anchored was 2nd (10:37).

Stockpiling toilet paper. Just feels right to the Florida Man in me.

Hey.
