    Donald Trump Does Not Get Post-Shooting Poll Boost
  • Teddy Roosevelt was shot point blank in the chest at a campaign stop. The bullet penetrated his chest after passing through a steal eyeglass case and his 50 page speech. Teddy noted he wasn’t coughing blood and knew he would survive. He calmed the lynch mod down that were going to murder the assassin and then did his speech.

    He lost the election despite being a total badass.

    Later, Teddy reluctantly ran as VP with McKinley who won the election and was quickly assassinated. Teddy became president and won a second term.

    Anyway, attempted assassination isn’t the boost people think it is - even for awesome badasses like Teddy Roosevelt.

    Millions raised for Arizona sheriff's animal shelter that was never built. Where did the money go?
  • TL;DR is record keeping very very terrible. Project speed was so bad pledged money was not donated when milestones were missed. Some money was returned and the rest vanished.

    Tesla Model Y 2024 scores near-perfect in IIHS' crash tests
  • I ended up buying a Y in 2022 (worst time unfortunately but needed a car). Kia/Hyundai wanted $7500 over MSRP and the Ford dealer was even worse with markups ($12k over MSRP).

    I got an older generation of this MagSafe mount so I could use different mapping apps.

    I had an order for a Rivian R1S but it was more expensive and has the same anti-carplay/Android Auto nonsense so I just got my deposit back. I'm going to stick with the Y until it dies then I hope Porsche Macan EV isn't too unreasonable.
