Yes we need to go further but, sometimes it feels like we make perfect the enemy of progress.

I’d love to see a large public works project that aims to increase the energy storage capacity/development across the world.

I don’t feel like we get there by focusing on it not being a complete solution.

Sorry, I might have gotten a little defensive there.

My point is if it supplements their energy consumption with cleaner energy it’s a good thing.

Even if its for a couple minutes or a couple hours its a positive improvement.

Would that not be 4 hours of not consuming non-renewables? Like not burning so much coal is a good thing no?

Are we arguing about the measure of progress in the United States? Cuz buddy I’ll take any progress at this point.

Eh, I use it for very stupid people. Obviously devoid of ableist intent.

I feel as though the context matters with this. For the genuinely evil and criminally unintelligent I would use the clinical “Mentally retarded”.

“Retard” and music (low volume) on buses are the controversial hills I’m willing to die on.
