Why Customers Think a Car Color Affects Premiums Conventional wisdom insists that red cars are magnets for tickets and, by extension, higher insurance premiums. It is tidy, memorable, and wrong in the way tidy stories often are.

People are great at recognizing patterns, even when they're not there.

Was reading some regional news publications across the US and @ctmirror.org is a real standout.

If you live in CT, maybe check them out. They seem like a local news @propublica.org.

Jeffries stalls effort to restore federal workers’ bargaining rights Reps. Adelita Grijalva (D-Ariz.) and Mike Lawler (R-N.Y.) were poised to sign a discharge petition to force a floor vote before the House minority leader stepped in.

People supported the shutdown because it was about big principals and delivering results for the American people.

No one supports refusing to deliver results because of petty bs!

Does anyone know of #union chapters at insurance companies? We want to write a story on #unionization, how to do it safely, the #UnionBusting that you want to protect against, etc.

Reposts for reach appreciated! I think OPEIU has them, but it's hard to find since unions also offer insurance.

Called my both of my US Senators to express my opinion that they should demand Schumer and Durbin step down from their leadership positions immediately.

You can do the same by dialing the US Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121. An operator will connect you directly with your Senator's office.

Have an interesting #Accessibility #WebDev question.

We have a dark theme button on our website. I set this button to be aria-hidden because this button is probably extraneous to people with screen readers.

Google Pagespeed doesn't like this. Am I wrong? Should I just aria-label?

Happy #VeteransDay to all the (many!!) #Veterans and troops of Bluesky and also to the Federal, State, and Local government employees that keep America safe -- some of whom without pay!

We'd really like to see public transit get so much funding that no one drives cars anymore. At that point, maybe we'd become the travel insurance bulletin (or just stop existing)

Don't build roads for our sake!

This is how all insurance works.

Lets take Car Insurance, for example.

You pay your car insurance every year, and most years you never file a claim.

But you rarely complain that you've not had an accident and therefore your car insurance is worthless.

Essentially, customers would rather insurers spend less on ads and more on their services. A water-is-wet conclusion for many of us, but a lesson we could stand to learn!
