Thought for the day. Not an aphorism, though I love them, but a full thought to be thought about.

@ReaderJohn Yeah, I've already thought about it. Vis-a-vis my 2008 Ranger vs. my neighbors' Teslas.

@ReaderJohn I experienced the reverse of this in my Cambridge MA neighborhood in the 1980s: The vehicle that cried "Socially Conscious!" was a beat-up, faded Volvo, usually adorned with stickers for various causes. We used to joke that someone could open a profitable Volvo aging service: process your expensive new Volvo to fit into the activist aesthetic.

@JohnBrady I like to imagine one of the stickers was for McGovern.
