Pay phone calls were anonymous. Cell phone calls - not so much. People are not fools.
Calling 911 when a black man spends 8 minutes raping a woman on a train. Or at least, enough people thought so that they were afraid of calling 911.

PG&E and two other California utilities have proposed a new $90 per-month “solar connection fee,” along with an 80% reduction in the payment solar panel owners receive for energy sent back to the grid (called net metering). You would essentially be paying PG&E for your own solar power.
Amazing they can get away with that in "green" California. The "rich" folks will just get a Tesla Wall or equivalent and not hook a transfer switch to sell back power.

Can't do that. You can't be in their service area and not hooked up w/o their permission to be not hooked up. Which they won't give.

What? Are you required to be hooked up to PGE? What if you just don't want their electricity or gas?

I imagine that if you simply don't pay them, they will disconnect you, for free!
At least that's how these things used to work.

Yes. Basically, the home is considered abandoned and/or vacated if it's not hooked up.

No, you still have a hookup, but not the transfer switch. Have PG&E hooked up to your meter, but have it power something low like just the mailbox or porch light. Use your solar and Tesla wall for everything else. If your Tesla Wall runs dry, then manually throw a switch to disconnect the Tesla Wall and throw another manual switch to connect to your meter.

I doubt it.
This is a story, show me where The Salvation Army is saying this. The Gateway Pundit doesn't because they are lying. This is misinformation. You are being fed false information.
I used to think it was worthwhile to record names of liars and propagandists in our "mainstream media" - the author of this bullshit is Jim Hoft. After I did this for a few months, I realized it was purposeless because most of "news" is bullshit. It's more useful to collect names of people who don't lie. That's a gem. People with principles in "mainstream media" - it's like a diamond in a septic tank and you don't often find a diamond in there, and it's rare it even exists there.

Farmers' Markets and food charities are racist.

Washington State University is amplifying claims that farmers markets and food charities are examples of “white supremacy” and “white dominant culture.”

I think they are more concerned that the increase in reported crime will lower house prices, now that Biden/Newsome policies have bought crime to the "good" areas.

Can confirm that Trulia still has crime stats. Wasn't using it due to lack of flood data.
More traffic for Trulia's crime stats pages.

Solar panels:

They say the current subsidies benefit solar customers, who tend to be wealthier and whiter, at the expense of the poorer communities of color by shifting billions in costs — including the maintenance of transmission systems and projects to prevent power lines from igniting wildfires — to other ratepayers, including those who don’t have solar, can’t afford it or rent their homes.

Sibusiso Vilane appears to be the first black man to summit Everest. He's South African.
