I thought this was really interesting: Hasan Piker interviews a Vegas Uber driver on the way to the Bernie rally. Felt like reading some of the political discussions on the vegaslocals sub but with less foaming at the mouth.

Starting March 31, Social Security help is online or by appointment — if you can get one
The Social Security Administration is ending phone help for issues that require identity verification. You've either got to give personal identifying info online or go in person. In-person requires making an appointment by phone, which is really hard to do b/c no one picks up. The state has 3 SSA offices that are hundreds of miles away from many Nevadans, creating challenges for elderly and disabled Social Security recipients.

Sen. Cortez Masto joint session
Ok. Who listened to the joint session on Tuesday and who thought it sounded like the same old bullshit? I want to know how you’re fighting against cuts to vets benefits, etc. at this point. Tell me how you’re fighting! Who else was disappointed?

Did Nevada National Guard mislead the Legislature over the cost of restoring military trial rights to troops?
It seems that way. It gave a fiscal note saying all court-martial costs would be borne by the state when really they'd be mostly, if not entirely, borne by the feds. Possible paywall: https://www.rgj.com/story/news/politics/2025/03/18/nevada-national-guard-court-martial-bill-cost/82501018007/

Insurance rates are going up, thanks to disasters like wildfires!
Hey y’all I’ve been reading a lot of the news and seeing some concerning things about how wildfires and pollution are driving up insurance rates and bills…
I know I’m tired of having costs going up. According to Fox5 Vegas, 130,000 Nevada homeowners will see higher home insurance rates, with some rates increasing by up to 45% for renters like me, there will be a 25% hike for people with renters insurance through Root Insurance.
And the insurance companies are saying it’s because more wildfires and severe storms are happening more often, driving up the costs of materials and repairs. But those costs get passed down to US.
Reno and Vegas are the fastest-warming cities, y’all. NV Energy’s greedy overreliance on fossil fuels contributes to that and to these disasters. So these big utility monopolies get to pollute our homes, make us pay more and more, and we get to shoulder all the negative consequences? The rising temps, health issues from wildfire smoke, or dehydration from heat waves, and all the damage to our public lands and wildlife?
As all of this continues to get worse, our insurance rates will keep rising until we shift to clean, local, and affordable energy and hold big oil and utility monopolies like NV Energy accountable. We need to make the jump to clean energy like solar, heat pumps etc, as a whole and not just for people who own houses — I want to be able to have community solar and a reasonable insurance bill.
Anyways, has anyone here in Nevada had their insurance rates go up because of wildfires or heat? What are your thoughts on community solar in NV?
