Amazingly, reaction times using screens while driving are worse than being drunk or high—no wonder 90 percent of drivers hate using touchscreens in cars.

Elon Musk is a multi-billionaire trying to dismantle the VA who called Kelly, a veteran who put his life on the line, a “traitor.”
Disgusting.

HAPPENING NOW: seven more elders were just arrested occupying the NYS statehouse.
Their act of civil disobedience is part of a three-day sit in support of the Climate Superfund Act which would make polluters pay for climate damages. Their message is, the governor needs to sign it.
