If you live in California, I suggest you learn how to ride a horse.

California's governor, Gavin Newsom, wants to ban gas cars by 2035. What does that mean for drivers?

1600909293253.png
Placing his executive order on the hood of a red, electric Ford Mustang, Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a directive on Wednesday to move California away from traditional, internal combustion engine cars. The order calls on the California Air Resources Board to develop rules allowing only zero-emission cars to be sold in the state by 2035.

The stupid here is large and wide.
 
As they go through rolling blackouts. A couple weeks after the LA mayor tweeted something along the lines of “ its almost 3pm, time to turn off the AC”. Keep in mind, it was over 100 in LA county. And of course, an absolute opposition to nuclear energy ( Gen 4 plants burn their own waste and cannot meltdown). You can’t make this shirt up! 😂
 
I love electric drive since I started building custom golf carts, but this fucker is nuts.

Does he realize how much pollution is created by building electric vehicles with lithium ion batteries and the efficiency of nuclear power? Yeah, rhetorical. If he gave two shits about the environment he would encourage buying used vehicles.

This makes me want to pull up in front of his house and let the big block sing. I'd have to bring my own fuel though, finding 93 in commifornia is apparently akin to searching for hens teeth.
 
the oil n gas industry
is evil -

we should not be using petroleum
to farm
to build
to manufacture
to transport
to provide
to live

we should all be riding
free range donkeys -
As long as people eat fried fast food I can make my own diesel nearly for free.

I can make another alternative fuel too if it doesn't all go into toddy's.

They'll take my internal combustion engine when they take my things that go bang.
 
Newsome will just require diapers on the horses, with catalytic converter attachment to meet commifornia emmisions. And a "gas" tax on hay. And it has to be an "organic" hay that's 50% higher in cost.

Chevrolet Releases California-Compliant Horse And Buggy

DETROIT, MI—General Motors is making waves after a surprise unveiling of a line of exciting new California-compliant vehicles. After a week of building anticipation, officials at the company revealed its latest innovation for the West Coast: the 2021 Horse And Buggy.

The curiosity started last week when GM's Twitter account dropped a cryptic photo of a lone carrot with the phrase "It's coming." Finally, at a live event this week, officials at the company pulled the cover off a stylish, elegant carriage pulled by a powerful single horse.

"We had to re-think everything," said lead designer Abraham Moses Jehoshaphat from rural Pennsylvania. "With California outlawing gas-powered cars, we had to research new technology for propelling a four-wheeled vehicle forward. After countless hours of research and billions of dollars, this is what we came up with. It's an organic, intelligent engine capable of listening to your voice commands and even reproducing other engines. A true miracle of modern science. Levi Berkenbosch from down the road donated it, which is nice. Her name's Sal."

The 2021 Horse & Buggy will come in a one or two horsepower option. Instead of dirty fossil fuels that make Mother Earth cry, the Horse & Buggy will be powered by organic oats and carrots, which can be picked up at your local Whole Foods for $12,000 per pound. Instead of plush bucket seats, riders will be treated to a solid oak plank carved from a single tree that will crack your pelvis every time you hit a pothole.

"The only downside to this amazing machine is you have to stop every 23 feet to pick up poop," said Jehoshaphat. "Although, if you're riding it through a San Francisco tent city no one will probably notice. Also, this old girl's a little skittish around fire, which I hear could be a problem in California."

Chevy confirmed they plan to release many more exciting new California-compliant models in the future such as the "Chariot," the "Flintstone," and the "100 Giant Helium Balloons Tied To A Harness On Your Back." You're welcome, Mother Nature!

Post of the month, laughing my ass off...
 
Folks are apparently flocking from commifornia to Idaho and Texas in droves.
Easily, 1/2 of the people I worked with have left. The most popular places from that retired group: Idaho, Arizona, and Texas. Other states getting honorable mention: Utah, Nevada, Montana, Alabama and Tennessee.

As for those still working and fleeing, Texas is the most popular.

Edit: let me add, all were native Californians. In other words they weren’t returning to their home state. They were/are fleeing their home state.
