    Recall snapple started out as a “healthier” option, which included not having emulsifers etc that kept the juices together. This means it needed shaken before being consumed for optimal flavor.

    This was too difficult for the average American consumer so snapple added the emulsifers etc. so people wouldn’t need to checks notes shake thier drink before opening.






  • My understanding of the study is it is highlighting that without good public infrastructure it is difficult for most people to go car free.

    For example, for me, my daily commute is ~20 minutes each way by car. Or ~3+ hours one way by bus, ~5 hours walking, ~90 minutes biking. The closest store to my house is a 20-30 minute bike ride, or hour walk, without sidewalks or bike lanes for most of it, making it rough and dangerous to traverse (Dont get me started on how its an over 1 hour bus ride [yes for a route that takes 40 minutes to walk]) It is its own chiken and the egg, poor infrastructure is justified as not even enough usage but people dont use it because there is not enough non-car infrastructure.








  • Newsom is not a good choice, they tried to recall him with merit, it didn’t fail because he was a good candidate, it failed because half the people trying to recall him were doing it because MAGA and his biggest opponent was a wacko that dragged a bear across the state as a PR stunt. After that recall failed he pushed a bunch of liberal programs and policies he’s been fighting to get a good name.

    He is not a good candidate he will do whatever he thinks will garner support, yes that means in some cases he passes things beneficial, but he doesn’t care. You stop being an important enough voting block and he’ll drop those promises like a hot potato.

    “I dont know what weapons WW3 will be fought with, but I know WW4 will be with sticks and stones” Maybe they say were gonna be obliterated and by 150 years all the knowledge of the pre-war era will be lost like a generic post apocalypse RPG.
