This 👆 guy puts it into perspective...
1 single Tesla charging station = 280 homes worth of power.
Electric Vehicles are a scam for control and it needs to be stopped NOW! 🤔

Ok, I don't know if this already exists.
But here I go, how would the adoptive family of the teenager from Record of Ragnarok react to her showing up with a real Baymax complete with charging station?
(ignore it if it's too weird, bye and good night)
This was such a cute idea!
-You received a suitcase from one of your friends, asking you to test it out and give him feedback. Tadashi was always a talented person, with a bright and creative mind, and his newest invention, Baymax, was in the final testing stages. Now all that needed to be done was test it.
-He had several prepared for many of his classmates, wanting their opinions on his invention.
-You saw it in action at school, it was brilliant but at the same time, it looked so cute and cuddly!!
-When you arrived home with the large case under your arm, “I’m home~!” you heard a few voices call out as your struggled to get inside without dropping the case, which you managed to do after a few moments.
-You walked into the living room and eyes went to you as you set the case down, eyes went from the case to you, wondering what it was before you pulled your bag off, “This is Baymax, one of the projects my friend Tadashi made. He asked me to bring one home and try it out with all of you.”
-Loki popped up behind you, his arms wrapping around your neck, hugging you, “So what’s a Baymax?” Nikola approached the case eagerly, like a kid on Christmas, as you answered, “Tadashi described Baymax as a personal healthcare provider attendant, to put it simple, Baymax is a robotic nurse.”
-Sparkles and roses surrounded Tesla as he spun on you, eyes beaming brightly, “Can we see him?!” you can’t help but giggle before you pull out the manual and flip through it for a moment before you turn to Loki, “I need you to hurt someone, just enough to-” SLAP!!!
-Lu Bu leapt up, turning on Loki, “Ow! You bastard!” the case beeped and slowly opened and all attention turned to what could only be described as a walking marshmallow, inflate himself before stepping out of the case.
-Loki was wide eyed, floating around Lu Bu as Zeus was stroking his beard, “What in the world have you humans made now?” Baymax approached Lu Bu, who was standing, and he began to speak after lifting a hand in greeting, “Hello, I am Baymax, a personal healthcare companion. I was altered to the need of medical attention when you said ‘ow’.”
-Tesla was gushing while many of the others had stood to circle Baymax, inspecting him, Eve poked his arm, “Oh- he’s so soft!”
-On Baymax’s belly, a screen appeared, “On a scale of one to ten, how would you rate your pain?” Lu Bu’s eyes were twitching lightly, looking over at you and you gave him a smile, motioning him to go along with it.
-After running through he scans and applying some antibacterial spray to Lu Bu’s chest, where a red handprint was still visible, several members in the room couldn’t help but snicker as Lu Bu took the lollipop, shadows covering his eyes before you spoke, “Thank you Baymax, we are satisfied with your care.”
-Baymax thanked us and went back to his case, deflating and boxing himself back up.
-Everyone was silent for a moment before you instantly found yourself in Tesla’s arms, his eyes sparkling up at you before you giggled, “You can study him, but don’t take him apart. And I can ask Tadashi if you can come to the lab again.” His cheeks was instantly rubbing against your own, thanking you.
-It was definitely a weird week with Baymax, you asked your family to try him out as much as possible, not to purposely injure themselves, as he was able to help with emotional and mental issues as well, as you wanted plenty of feedback.
-When you went back to Tadashi, you left Baymax at home, as he had become a member of the family and Tadashi couldn’t help but laugh, telling you that the other five people he asked all said the same thing, but that’s what he wanted.
-Tadashi was then surprised when Tesla popped up again beside you and began to praise his invention. It wasn’t the first time these two had met and they were quickly in a deep discussion as you waved at them, heading for the campus café for some coffee before class.

you know, I got an electric car and forgot to put my thoughts about it down here! so you know what, I'm gonna do just that.
So for the record, I have a 2012 Nissan Leaf. this is like a first or second gen pure electric car, so keep that in mind. newer electric cars are gonna have way better stats than mine will. mostly. (looking at you, tesla)
so, overall?
I genuinely love it. It's like the best car experience I've ever had. runs great, nothing's wrong with the car itself.
and yet I may still need to trade it in for a different car. which makes me very sad.
the reason?
there's no infrastructure for it. "but steph," you say, "maybe there isn't now, but it's supposed to be coming over the course of the next ten years."
yeah I thought so too. and yet, in the past eight months since I got my car, there are fewer electric charging stations. not more. maybe it's just my area, the south puget sound.
I'm going to go into more about owning an electric car under the read more. it's not too complicated, but it's definitely different than an internal combustion car, so there's a lot to take in.
so the biggest thing about owning an electric car is money's no longer really any issue. I can charge an entire tank, which can get me to work and a little farther (my car is an OLD electric car, newer ones can go much farther) for like, $2.50 at a fast charging station. plug into the wall? $0. pennies. my work lets me plug into a wall outlet so I essentially spend a big fat $0 on travel to work.
that part's fucking awesome. genuinely don't mind the short range for me because of that.
the thing about electric cars is you are replacing money with time. charging. takes. time. the newest, fastest cars, in ideal weather and temperature, still take about 20-30 minutes to go from an empty tank to full.
There's different levels of charging. It's basically slow, fast, and fastest.
Depending on the outlet strength and your battery capacity and weather outside, slow charging ("trickle charging") will take between 6-20 hours. Costs the least, takes the most time, but obviously if you're parking it and letting it charge over night, not a problem.
Medium charging will take between 2 and 6 hours, again depending on outlet strength, battery capacity, and weather outside.
Fastest charging ("supercharging," whatever) will take 30 minutes to 2 hours. Fastest time, but costs the most.
But again that's like. $2.50. The most I've ever been charged for a full tank was like... $6? Because it was a $2.50 flat hookup fee, and then the total charging time cost about $3.50, so all together $6. Again, for a full tank, that can charge while I'm working and be ready to go by the time I need to go home.
Now the other thing to keep in mind is weather WILL affect how fast your car charges, AND how fast it drains the charge. the colder the weather, the slower it will charge, and the faster it will drain. and this isn't like a "so small you can barely notice it" amount, it NOTICEABLY affects my mileage. this last winter, once the temps get under 40 degrees, I can lose like a quarter of a tank, and took about 3 times as long to charge at even the fastest charging station. keep in mind that this may be because my car is 11 years old, but just like with any electronics, weather and temperature will affect your car.
and the more things you have running, such as say wipers, or heat to keep your ass from freezing, those will also drain the battery faster/
aka absolutely do not get an older electric car if you live in a place that routinely snows or gets around freezing. maybe a newer one, but not an older one.
here is the kicker though:
I really would not mind all of this. it's a little bit more extra effort, but for the reward? god yeah it's awesome. combined with an absolutely wonderful driving experience (zero noise, SO smooth, great handling), there'd be no reason that I'd be considering trading in.
HERE is why:
you cannot CHARGE at every charging station. you can only charge at charging stations that have your specific charging plug.
so sure, there could be twenty charging stations within a mile of you. but if none of them have the right plug, then all twenty of them are useless to you.
if you do not have a tesla, and all of the stations in your city are only tesla stations, then you have no charging stations.
now at first, it's easy to think "well I just need enough to get to my destination."
no, my friend. you need at least enough to get to your destination, and then get to a charging station. whether that's a wall outlet (you wanna wait there for 7-20 hours?) or a fast charging station.
because what happens if you run out of juice on the road? you can't walk to a gas station, buy a can of gas, and walk back to get yourself on the road again. there are portable chargers you can get to keep like an extra can of gas, but can you afford a $3300 portable charger?
did you also know that some electric cars cannot be put in Neutral if they have no charge at all? meaning that you have to have enough charge for the tow-truck ride to a charger, or else the they have to bring a special tow truck called a wrecker? which will cost more?
"but steph," you say, "some of them have solar panels! isn't that enough to recharge it?" yes, technically. my car has a solar panel. it would probably take about 24 hours to recharge it... about a 1/12 of the tank, so not really enough to even start my car again. it's enough to compensate for the ambient loss of charge while my car sits idle, but nothing else.
another thing to keep in mind with charging stations is most will have enough for about 4 cars to charge at the same time, max. in the entire puget sound, I have not seen a station that can charge more than 4, maybe 5 vehicles at once.
most of these, yes, do have two chargers! if a station has 4 charging... terminals, I guess you could call them, and they each have 2 plugs, then in theory, you should be able to charge 8 cars at once, right?
no, because at a vast majority of stations, you can only use one of those charging plugs at a time. if someone is using the other plug, you cannot charge your car at the same terminal, and have to find a different one.
so here comes the other infrastructure problem: a lot of the stations that have multiple kinds of charging plugs (remember how you have to find a station that has your kind of plug?) will share a terminal with another plug.
this wouldn't be a problem, except most of the time, it'll be a majority of one type of plug, and then like a single plug of a different kind.
so let's say you have a non-tesla. at this one station, there's 4 terminals. each has 2 plugs. 7 of those are tesla plugs, and 1 is a non-tesla, and that's the one you can use.
there's only 1 car, using 1 terminal. all the rest of the stations are free. they have a tesla, and they can use any station.
unfortunately, they got there when no one else was around, didn't think about it, and are using the stall that has the single plug you can use. despite them having a tesla and being able to use any of the stalls, they're using the one you need. maybe when they got there, all the rest were taken, who knows.
either way, you have to wait until they're done to charge your car.
remember back to the fact that it can take 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the temp?
you can ask them to please move.
assuming they're waiting in their car. most people, since it takes 30 minutes to 2 hours, will leave their car to go do some shopping or whatever. so if you didn't see them and have no idea what they look like, then good fucking luck trying to find them to ask them to move.
so now you have to wait for them to go back to their car once it's done charging. they're going to come back when it's done charging, right?
in theory, yes. most stations (most!) will accrue charges if your car is done and you're leaving it there still plugged in.
not everyone gives a damn about those charges though!
so say someone doesn't care, and leaves their car there for 6 hours. in the space that has a single charger that you can use. they're not even using their car, and you can't charge yours for 6 hours.
obviously, no one is going to wait six hours to START charging their car. so you go to find a different charging station.
I hope you can find another one within range, because you run out of charge.
yeaahhhh, remember the whole "there are now FEWER charging stations than there were when I first got my car"?
the piece de resistance?
not every charging station is in working order. sometimes they are broken or out of order when you get there.
there are apps to help you find ones that work, and work for your type of plug. one of the most popular is PlugShare. even with this, stations are not always updated, and sometimes stations just don't exist when there's supposed to be one. or it happens to be broken that day, and no one's been there that day to leave a comment that it's broken.
in addition, I have found stations that SAY they're superchargers, but in reality, they charge sometimes slower than a wall outlet. because the fun part is stations can say they charge UP TO so many kilowatts. but on average, it's only a fraction of that. so you're paying about $2.50 for what should be about $.30. ain't that fun and not at all sleazy and frustrating when you don't have enough charge to get to a different station, so you know you're going to be there for several hours when you thought you were only going to be there for a half-hour?
now, again, my car is 11 years old. the type of charging plug it has, ChadeMo, is being phased out. the newer charging plug types are CCS and tesla plugs. so that is absolutely a factor.
but I have also seen the same things being said with CCS and tesla plugs. fewer stations, even for the ones that work.
and... isn't that a problem too? if my type of plug can be phased out and become obsolete, then what will happen to the other plugs? who's to say that these newer plugs won't be phased out either?
there are... questionable adapters being made for charging plugs. it's not as easy as switching adapters for your computer though, and you're look at about $200 for an adapter, and for several thousand for a chademo adapter, which is still being tested.
You wanna carry around an adapter that you have to remember to take with you, every time your charge your car (and take it back with you, when you're done charging) that cost you a couple grand?
and so, to bring everything back around:
I love my car. best car experience I've ever had. it costs me so little to use my car, especially considering there's things I don't have to do anymore--like I don't have to worry about oil changes!
but because of mostly external factors? I am losing usability of my car. within an 8 month period, I went from like 5 or 6 stations I could charge my car at, to about... 2, within a 16 mile radius. 16 miles.
if there were just those 6 stations, like there were when I bought my car 8 months ago, this wouldn't really even be a problem. and I'm in a decent area for charging stations!
in the entirety of the Seattle area, there was a SINGLE charging station, that I could use. I had to leave the city before I could get to another one, miles outside of it.
my car is perfectly fine. it doesn't even have 100k miles on it yet, and could probably go another 100k before I have any problems. but I am, in all likelihood, probably going to have to find someplace to trade it in.
Because there's no infrastructure for it, and what infrastructure IS there seems to be getting actively worse.
So all in all, to finish things up.
How is driving an electric car? Is it worth it?
I love my car. Driving electric cars kicks ass. They're smooth and quiet and like, a dream for someone who likes quiet. When usable, they're cheap, you can do a lot with them, and newer electric cars will have much more range and versatility than mine!
But... does your area have the infrastructure for electric cars? Does it have the infrastructure for your car specifically?
And will it continue to have that infrastructure in the future?
And unfortunately, the only way you're going to know that is finding someone who's already been driving electric in your area, and has been driving a car similar to the one you want.
there's no real way, currently, to predict how feasible it will be for you without first or second-hand experience. you cannot predict it on paper. so unless you've got money to blow, it's going to be a very risky investment. but I suspect if you're reading this, you're not going to be one of those people who has money to blow.
for now? if you're really adamant on electric, go with a hybrid for now. I absolutely do not think, certainly for my area (which is pretty urban and honestly pretty great for electric cars. yeah, all things considered) the infrastructure is there for it. And if you don't live in a major urban area, you almost DEFINITELY do not have the infrastructure for purely electric vehicle.
I really hope all of this has been helpful for you! Feel free to ask questions, I am more than happy to offer my opinion!

Excerpt from this story from EcoWatch:
Sunrun, a solar company, and Baltimore Gas and Electric Company (BGE), the largest utility provider in Maryland, have launched a pilot program for a bidirectional power plant fueled by solar energy and EV technology.
The pilot, which involves three households, allows users to draw energy from a Ford F-150 Lightning electric truck when paired with the Ford Charge Station Pro and Home Integration System sold by Sunrun. This setup lets the household utilize energy from the EV during peak energy demand, Smart Energy International reported.
The pilot program is the first vehicle-to-home power plant in the U.S. and was funded with grants from the U.S. Department of Energy.
“This program is a significant proof of concept — no other market player has done this — and the goal is to expand these programs all around the country,” Sunrun CEO Mary Powell said in a press release. “This exciting partnership lays the foundation for the power grid of the future where electric vehicle owners can contribute to grid resiliency and utility price stability for everyone. The summer heat can be especially stressful on our power grid, which is why proving the use of stored energy in electric vehicles for capacity is so important.”
The process works by sending energy from the EV batteries to the homes, allowing the vehicle batteries to operate as energy storage. This can complement solar energy sources as well as reduce demand on Maryland’s power grids during peak times. The bidirectional power provided through the charging station can power homes for up to 10 days in the event of an outage, Sunrun said.
For the pilot program, the trucks share energy from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. on weekdays from June 1 to September 30. The pilot is offering an estimated $800 to participants.
Currently, there are only a limited number of EV models that offer the bidirectional charging feature, including the Nissan Leaf, the 2024 Ioniq 5 and Ioniq 6 models from Hyundai, Kia’s EV6, EV9 and Niro EV, and the Ford F-150 Lightning, Cars.com reported.
More vehicles are expected to introduce bidirectional charging in the coming years, including all GM and Tesla EV models, CNET reported.
Sunrun and BGE are planning to expand the program after monitoring the pilot and will offer incentives for F-150 Lightning owners to join, helping increase grid resilience. The program could also help contribute toward Maryland’s goal to reach net-zero emissions by 2045 and achieve 100% clean electricity by 2035.

Ok, so I've heard people talk about getting a Tesla Cybertruck as like... Some form of "prepper" thing?
And getting a car just seems like a weird tool for the post apocalyptic societal collapse, cause it requires societal infrastructure to operate!
Powergrid goes down, you can't charge your Tesla. Powergrid goes down, the pumps at the gas station is poof. If you somehow have enough local electricity production at home that you could keep your Cybertruck topped off, the moment you get out on the (now completely unmaintained) roads with your very bulky and heavy vehicle, you will soon realize that all the stranded cars that get in your way that /couldn't/ be kept fueled up with whatever powers them block your path.
What I'm saying is, if you're really a prepper, get a fucking bicycle, that you could just lift up and get past an obstacle in a pinch, maybe even a 3 wheel one with some hauling space in the front, idk. But a cumbersome bulky car is just... Not at all suited for the postapocalypse!
Also, bikes can traverse rougher terrain than most cars, on top of wearing less on the now unmaintained infrastructure, so you can use whatever remains for longer!
#preppers#cybertruck#tesla#real preppers use bikes#get an electric bike if you're feeling fancy#an e-bike could in theory reasonably stay charged via local solar power etc.

"How do I build Faith ?"
You call Bob the Builder, OBVIOUSLY. What a DUMB *and* STUPID question. He can build *ANYTHING*. Have you not seen the show ?
***
Ok, so that was a joke. But hear me out.
***
First off, we have to be very careful not to conflate "FAITH" with "HOPE".
The distinguishing element between the two is "Time". How ? "Hope" implies a temporal separation. It implies that the fulfillment IS COMING.
"FAITH", on the other hand, "knows" that it's ALREADY HERE. There is a breathtaking difference between the two that it would behoove one to appreciate. *Hope* has a bunch of implications, like "fear", "uncertainty", and even implies a *lack* of faith. Bringing your ideals to objectivity is built on certainty. It's the dynamo that powers the whole mechanism. So we don't want to *hope*. We want to *know*. Knowing powers *Faith*.
>*And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.* (Mathew 17:20) (KJV)
So now we got dat mustard-seed faith.💥💥 💯🔥🔥💯💯 It's good. But we want something a little more grounded. We want that sturdy faith that lets us sleep well at night. So we have to build it. Why ?
Because *Faith without works, is dead.*
So now we have to get on our #sigma #boss-babe #grindset and wake up at 3:58 in the morning and do squats before even brushing teeth, and eat shit for 10 years every day , no friends, no weekends while blasting stoic-youtube.
That was also a joke. No. We don't have to do that.
"Works" and "Acts" are synonymous. We build faith by doing what Neville tells us to do. "Live in the end." Act, FROM. How do we do that ? By doing what we'd do if our wish were objectified this second.
My first post here was riddled with a bunch of examples of questions one would ask to stay in their Fulfilled state. ANYTHING you do that implies fulfillment is a "work". ANYTH💦ING. *Wipes spit* sorry
Want $200,000 ? Google an interest yielding account until you're sure what bank you're going to use. Want a Tesla ? Find electric charging stations or a nice tarp to cover it for when it rains. Want a nice apartment ? Start picking posters. Faith is built by acts that imply possession. There's this idea that if you're down to your last dime, you need to spend it, to show how strong your faith is. NO. RELAX. OK. DONT DO THAT. Neville still had to serve in the military for a while even after his SATS put him back home in NYC. Be smart, folks.
Anything you do from premises of fulfilment is a *work*. The worst thing we do is we do what were called to do, but then sit there and wait for it. This Almost always fails because of the "Amazon effect." The second you click order, you're at your window WAITING for the DHL asshole. (Those ppl work hard..be nice. Tip well. I'm jk ok) You order an ipad ? Don't wait for it. Start looking for a nice case. A screen protector. An apple pencil, because you know you want to mess around doodling with PROCREATE™.
Like my first post, these acts feed faith INDIRECTLY. You don't have to affirm of your ACTING. Some people can affirm and be fine. Someone need movement. Do works that imply fulfillment. This will further vitalize your sense of knowing, passively.
The last thing you want to do is wait and think. These two are the twin-destroyers of Faith. Think and Do from. It's the little things that add up.
This is third rant this week, and I'm gonna take a break and drink some water that I didn't drink today. That's not good when you're 35+. Please Hydrate. 🌊

I know a business where the owner bought 2 Teslas. One for his own personal use and one for a company car because he doesn't like shelling out so much gas money. He doesn't have a charging station at his home or at the office so he has to get them charged somewhere else in town. I'm curious what the current price of 1 mile is in electricity vs gasoline.

As electric vehicles (EVs) continue to grow in popularity, more and more drivers are looking to make the switch to a greener, more sustainable mode of transportation. In Atlanta, GA, used electric cars are becoming an increasingly attractive option for drivers who want to reduce their carbon footprint while saving money on fuel and maintenance. With various makes and models available, buying a pre-owned electric car can be a smart way to enjoy the benefits of EV ownership without the higher price tag associated with new vehicles.
In this guide, we’ll explore why buying a used electric car in Atlanta is a great option, what to look for when shopping for one, and where to find the best deals on pre-owned EVs in the area.
Why Buy a Used Electric Car in Atlanta?
1. Affordability
One of the primary reasons to consider buying a used electric car is the price. New electric vehicles (EVs) can be expensive, with models like the Tesla Model S or the Audi e-tron costing well over $40,000. However, pre-owned electric cars are significantly more affordable, allowing buyers to access the latest technology and eco-friendly features at a lower cost.
Moreover, as electric vehicles age, they lose value more slowly than traditional gas-powered cars, so buying a used EV can help you avoid the steep depreciation associated with new cars. With a wide variety of second-hand electric vehicles on the market, you'll likely find options that fit your budget and still offer great performance and range.
2. Incentives and Tax Credits
Although the federal tax credit for new electric vehicles is only available for new car purchases, there are still state-level incentives and rebates that may apply to used electric vehicles. Georgia, for example, offers a $5,000 rebate on the purchase of a new or used EV, making it even more affordable to drive an electric car.
Additionally, many used electric cars are eligible for incentives offered by local utility companies, including rebates for home charging equipment and reduced electricity rates for EV owners. These savings can add up quickly and make the transition to electric driving even more cost-effective.

What to Look for When Buying a Used Electric Car
1. Battery Health and Range
When purchasing a used electric vehicle, the most important factor to consider is the health of the battery. The battery is the most expensive component of an EV, and its performance diminishes over time. Be sure to ask the seller about the car’s battery health and whether it has been replaced or serviced.
Most EV manufacturers offer warranties for the battery that last between 8 to 10 years or up to 100,000 miles, so check to see if the car is still under warranty. Also, consider the car's range—how far it can travel on a single charge—since older EVs may have a shorter range than newer models.
2. Vehicle History Report
As with any used car, it’s important to get a vehicle history report when buying a used electric vehicle. A history report will provide valuable information on whether the car has been in any accidents, its previous owners, and any potential mechanical or electrical issues. Services like Carfax or AutoCheck can provide detailed reports that help you make an informed decision.
3. Charging Compatibility
Ensure that the EV you’re considering is compatible with your preferred charging setup. Many electric cars use standard Level 2 chargers, but some, like the Nissan Leaf, may require a specific charging station. Confirm that you have access to the necessary charging infrastructure, whether at home or in public spaces, and ensure the vehicle is compatible with your charging needs.
4. Warranty and Maintenance
Look into the manufacturer's warranty coverage for the used EV. Some brands, such as Tesla and Chevrolet, offer extended warranties for their electric vehicles. If the car is still under warranty, it could save you money on repairs and offer added peace of mind.
5. Model-Specific Considerations
Different EV models have unique features and specifications. For example, Tesla models are known for their long range, advanced technology, and high resale value, but they can also be pricier than other options. Chevrolet Bolts offer excellent range and affordability, while Nissan Leafs are one of the most budget-friendly options with a proven track record for reliability. Consider your needs, driving habits, and budget when choosing the right model.

Tesla is still one of the few options if you want to do a longer trip. Elon sucks, but he put in the infrastructure that no one else has bothered to put in. My parents have a Tesla, and they have to get energy at least twice a month, despite being able to use the trickle charger at home, because friends and family can live far enough away that they can't quite make it. There are few non-Tesla fast charge stations, and even those are often broken without notification in the apps. The other manufacturers will say things like "you can charge up at our dealers!" but then you talk to dealers and most of them don't have chargers because they don't sell the electric version. Teslas are still one of the few viable electric cars because of the infrastructure investments that Musk funded. I'd really love that to change.
All that said, I cancelled my Cybertruck order because the man is completely batshit insane.
It amazes me how many teslas I see out and about. Like you guys bought one for real? On god? No joke?????
