"Until now, the record for most spending per vote was held by Mayor Daniel Lurie, who paid $156.14 for each of his first-choice votes in the 2024 mayoral race. But there’s a big difference: Lurie won."

With gas prices up and the threat of rationing due to Trump's war, you have to be very dedicated to your love of petroleum to do otherwise.
"Africa imported 44,358 electric vehicles from China in 2025, according to data from China’s Commerce Ministry, up from 19,386 in 2024. The shipments, valued at over $200 million, highlight growing demand, especially in Ethiopia after it banned new imports of gas and diesel-powered vehicles in 2024."

I heard about this new 'Possession' movie that's like, 2 hours and 50 minutes long. You're telling me there's nothing you could've cut to make that a shorter, better running time? Fuck that.

ExxonMobil’s CEO called Venezuela “uninvestable” without changes to its legal system.
The head of ConocoPhillips wanted U.S. government financing.
But Jeffery Hildebrand, a major Trump donor whose wife had been named ambassador to Costa Rica, had already seen how loyalty could be rewarded.
Even though he had no notable operations outside the U.S., he hunched toward a microphone and said in a halting voice,

In the central Netherlands, this was the 5th (or possibly 6th) warmest spring in the 126-year record. It was also sunny and dry.
Probably quite popular with many, but a clear sign of our changing climate. Personally, I've come to dislike hot weather in May; happy that it has cooled down now.

"Some designs of emojis are very different for the same codepoint, especially the ones depicting emotions/reactions. Examples coming to mind are 😨, 🔫. What are your thoughts on this?" - The (water) pistol 🔫 was originally a hand gun which looked a lot more real. In response to its frequent use in criminal or other unsavory contexts (e.g., as a threat), most platforms replaced it with the colorful plastic toy gun design in 2018. (In 2024, Elon Musk had it turned back into a realistic hand gun for the Twemoji design 🙄)
I'm torn. On the one hand, I don't think we can stay on top of all potential uses of emojis (or should even try to limit them) and people who want to use emojis for threats probably can still do so. On the other hand, I do find it rather hard to imagine that the green plastic 🔫 could be used as a threat... so... I guess good job, designers/tech firms? #emojis #linguistics #WorldEmojiDay
