Close all windows? I love the smell of lithium in the morning.

Smoke from a lithium fire is particularly toxic. Fuck! There’s karma… then there’s this karma’s horrible “collateral damage” from the smoke and a fire which could spread. Fuck, fuck.

Is it just me or is it Tesla every time? Other electric car brands do exist, yet they don’t seem to be blowing up every other week, somehow…

In the article, it says

“Fire officials are urging residents in the area to close all doors and windows and evacuation orders have been issued for zones MRY-B037, MRY-B047, MRY-B050, MRY-B051, MRY-B053, MRY-B058 and MRY-B060. Residents are also requested to stay out of the area to allow for access of emergency vehicles.”

[my emphasis]

I’m reassured that they’re not just saying “shut the windows and you’ll be fine.”

Also in the article:

The plant had previously caught fire back in September 2022

Wait, what now?

I didn’t look at their source data, but the article suggests the Tesla is the deadliest car (per miles driven) made in America, as opposed to driven in America.

Having said that, Telsa emerged as being twice as deadly as the overall average, made in America or not.

Just to be clear, it’s more than understandable if Musk isn’t particularly good at playing video games, whether it’s Path of Exile 2 or Elden Ring.

Musk is a father to 11 children, the CEO of multiple companies and is soon expected to have a place in Trump’s White House. He clearly doesn’t have time to play these time-consuming games at the difficulty level he claims, nor should he.

Of course, he doesn’t really have time to beef with Twitch streamers either, and yet, here we are.

Destroyed in three paragraphs.

I’m sure if the owner asks nicely, then the police will give it back.
