  • I’m probably one of these. was thinking EV but now did a 180 and am going to get a big old gas or diesel truck off craigslist.

    the upside is I drive maybe once a week and bike and scooter otherwise so my carbon impact will still be low. it’s just to haul wood for woodworking or take my trailer to the campsite.

    another upside by getting it used and fixing it up is reducing waste and avoiding a car payment. most EVs are still new enough you’re unlikely to be able to buy them used cheaply. I can get a used usable truck for under 5 grand cash.

    correction on that last sentence. mother’s want to save themselves because they don’t want to die. they are not making any calculations about their own fertility.

    this strategy doesn’t prove to be a major evolutionary disadvantage because the mothers are proven to be fertile so there is no evolutionary pressure to remove this trait but that’s an analysis a human scientist is making. not the quokka
