This also happens to be how my OCD-addled brain operates

Wasn't aware. I think that's a great idea, honestly. Keep yourself safe.

That's totally fair. My apologies for my ignorance.

That's fair. I fully acknowledge my limited scope/understanding and bias.

I wish we lived in a better world with better intentioned people overall. It's easy to focus on Elon Musk because he's the biggest/loudest dragon, hoarding the most gold. There are others just like him everywhere. It's depressing and overwhelming.

I'm not a fan of cars in general, but understand their necessity in plenty of situations. EVs have great potential, but need good-intentioned engineers with plenty of oversight to safely fuel their development. I'm sure these companies have some brilliant scientific minds in there and they should be allowed to usher in a new age of invention, not limited by the bottom line of vampiric shareholders and the egos of CEOs. It's just so sad.

Good point. I'm not sure. It may be that we're (I'm) hearing more about Teslas catching fire because they're the largest distributor in the US (and I live here). However, they're not the largest in the world and I haven't heard of this problem happening with other EVs (though they may be).

Regardless, Elon Musk is a pompous charlatan and defrauder that deserves much worse than he'll ever get. Bias be damned.

The expression "two sides of the same coin" does not mean two things that are the same. It means two things with the same base and opposite expressions.

As such, the same side of two different coins indicates two different bases with the same expression

The metaphor works better and acknowledges more nuance than the Yin Yang.

I thought this was a clickbait article

 

How the hell am I supposed to live? This isn't even enough to cover rent in my area. I have a move-out date of August 31st and I have no clue what we're going to do.
