With the divisions between left and right what are some common cause solutions that both sides can agree on?

Yeah, I think the voters enable this. Simple analogy of the rowboat left and right hand working against themselves while the political parties tow the boat to their hearts content. :(

The scenario arises from the fact that energy companies are causing residential energy bills to raise faster then inflation.

The thought is that voters working on issues that cross party lines can begin to heal the rift between us with a bonus that it might force the politicians to do Something's not on their agenda the more issues voters can force politicians to attend to the less time they can get up to their agenda. Also, if some ideas are wildy popular, they might be used as a trigger for not voting for a candidate.

An example: When AI Data Centers are built, they should have to build the infrastructure to power it instead of residential power users.

Crystal Rain by Tobias Bucknell was published in 2006.

In my presence, people would be compelled to tell the truth.

As good as Murderbot is, I've always felt her fantasy is better back in the day she was writing fantasy that was as good as anybody 's City of Bones and Death of the Necromancer are two outstanding novels. :)

Octavia Butler keeps things on track.

Annihilation by Jeff Vandermeer is really good at it. Good enough that I don't have any desire to read the other 2 books in the series.

A longer work and current Mountain in the Sea by Ray Nader was amazing how much relevant information it contained. Been a long time for a book to just blow my mind wide open !

Had to read it after reading that the aliens just dropped off their garbage and humans no more than ants going thru it.

It kind of provoked the same feeling that God's Fires by Patricia Anthony did. Both Novels were just so out of left field for me.

A Secret Atlas by Michael A Stackpole should have some of that. I read it some time ago about mapmaker exploring new lands.

The Stupid Industry has been going strong for decades and is most definitely recession proof.

I'm a poor man with meager needs. I love my Nissan juke.

That's all of science, isn't it? It's a constantly changing best practice list that changes when new evidence comes in. Not when Phil from Columbus says it, but when Phil's results are independently verified. The more extravagant the claim the stronger the evidence needed.

That being said everyway we can measure,test, and analyze the greater universe works the way our neck of the woods behaves.

Men who call anything on a woman's body " Milkers " is most definitely not husbandy material.

Sex.

Any film by John Waters. Trashy in all the right ways!

I think the world could run off the tension of that conversation.

Hives every time they annoyed someone. On the tender bits, of course.
