This is undoubtedly the most time effort that has ever gone into a visual gag. Should I have spent three (and a half) entire workdays on this? Debatable. But it happened.
And rather than simply leave it like this, I want to get decals made w...

It's been a minute, huh? I had really hoped to get this video done before June ran out, but I ran into a research snag which turned into a nasty form of writer's block. The snag ended up being very stupid which I am embarrassed by but...

Yeah so I'll be honest up front: this is something between a remake and a rerun.
I've been meaning to get this video out there for a while as something I keep seeing over and over again is the insistence that electric cars "need" 50A chargi...

The day before I finished the latest video, I met some folks in Milwaukee. Since a lot of... really strange ideas about what using electric cars must be like have been floating around on Bluesky I decided to film the experience.
Hello! I’m still here and kicking, despite all the everything. And though it took me much longer than I wanted for various reasons, I have a new video today.

Thank you so much for your feedback, everyone. I made several changes to the video and removed some of the pieces that were admittedly a little too self-indulgent.
