    Source:Greta Thunberg ends year with one of the greatest tweets in history | Rebecca Solnit | The Guardian

    • Andrew Tate, 36, sent a boastfully hostile tweet to climate activist Greta Thunberg, 19, about his sports car collection. “Please provide your email address so I can send a complete list of my car collection and their respective enormous emissions,”
    • Thunberg seemed aware of that when she replied: “yes, please do enlighten me. email me at [email protected].”

    Works for me but by no means victory. Our species has worked hard to dig a hole called called global warming. But the move to renewable electricity sources and electric vehicles is starting to 'dig in a different direction.'

    They ended up impounding 33 of his gas guzzling super cars he was just bragging to Greta about. I’ve been following this story for a few days now and have to admit that I’m impressed. Greta Thunberg made Andrew’s carbon footprint nearly 0 in 48 hours.

    Iduno - seems like so many municipalities quickly kick people loose now days, with no bail being necessary type rules implementation.

    Sadly Tate being caught has created an opportunity for “his account “ to ghost post an even larger amount of misinformation than normal to his eager fanbase who seems to believe he was released and is in Malibu having a drink.

    As opposed to the reality he will be in some form of custody for 30 days until they finish investigating his empire

    'No bail' jurisdictions aren't going to release a flight risk like a foreign national. Assuming the charges even made that an option.

    As a side note, to anybody browsing PriusChat with JavaScript restricted, the key bit of the first post ends up looking like this


    ... which ends up making the humor seem a bit more recherché than it was.

    Yikes... That's awful that PriusChat protects fake emails but doesn't protect phone numbers. Last Fall I made the mistake of posting my phone number to a couple people on here and for several months I'd get random text messages & phone calls from people demanding a free diagnosis on their Prius without any explanation of who they were and when I asked they were like, I found your phone number on the internet. What's worse is these people seemed mostly illiterate, with an inability to speak & read coherently, let alone in complete sentences. I won't make that mistake again now that things have finally settled down.

    Meanwhile this past week the judge extended the 30 day custody order for the third time and there's a million hateful men around the world that once thought Tate was teaching them how to abuse women and get away with it, yet they're all learning that the consequences of their abuse will likely lead to decades in Prison. This is the most important lesson Tate has to teach them! Most likely the last lesson he will ever teach them.
