I wrote a column about why anyone who says they’re not voting because Kamala Harris sucks need to suck it up and vote anyway. This contains fighting words, but it’s also one of the most sincere things I’ve ever written. I want folks to come together as a “civics Voltron” and fight evil together.

You are not too good for the common good

I am deeply worried about how rigged the American democratic system is, but still we must vote.

I scrolled through all the replies to see if anyone posted this and nobody has so here we go

Rheem Professional Prestige ProTerra (that's a lot of alliteration), I have the 50 gal one and it's been fine for our family of 4. I had it on "energy saver" which basically only uses the resistive elements if it runs out but recently changed it to heat pump only. Haven't noticed a difference

Not getting the performance that people in the South who have theirs in the garage will get but still a lot better than your average electric

Also mine is in a Midwestern basement but next to the furnace so it takes a lot of the latent heat from that.

Just want to chime in to say I got one to replace my gas water heater two years ago and I love it. My HVAC guys had only done one before but were willing to do another one. One of the installers was reading about it before the install and said to me "I'm getting one of these for myself" 😄

Also in Metro Detroit and my local Nextdoor (yeah I know...) is like 70% coyote sighting reports

Very excited for this and to see you here on BlueSky!!
