How important is changing the inverter fluid?

I took my car in for an oil change yesterday. They advised I have the inverter fluid changed (2010 Prius 124,000 miles). The inverter fluid was changed when the car had 87,000 miles in 2017. I retired in 2020, and since 2020, I only drive about 1500 miles a year. Most of the 37,000 miles driven since the fluid change was from 2017-2020. I think I've driven less than 10,000 miles since 2020. I don't mind having the fluid changed, but I thought I'd wait till I've driven 50,000 miles since the fluid change (I might not live that long)....

According to MLB.com, Brogdon has been DFA'd.

I know most people thought Brogdon would be DFA'd, I was actually surprised. I thought they might try to get Gaddis right by putting him on the IL.

Congressional District 6 Poll.

I found a poll for Congressional District 6 from the New York Times (I think it's a Democratic Party poll, but NYT published it). The poll shows Kiley in 1st place (I'd expect this due to his high name recognition...I figured he'd be one of the candidates in November) and it looks like Dr. Pan is the next highest in the poll. Make of that what you will....

In case you are wondering about District 6, here's an article from Calmatters.org. The entire article actually gives some analysis on all the candidates in multiple districts, but I thought the District 6 was useful since Roseville is in District 6. The article says District 6 is "Safe Democratic," but I don't think that's at all accurate given that the fake independent, Kevin Kiley, is running in the district. I think he's a shoe-in for November and maybe, due to his name recognition, he's got a good chance of winning.

I was just wondering if you thought customer preferences have changed or are they still the same as before all this stuff took place in the middle east? I know some parts of the country aren't as expensive as California, so maybe this is a regional type of question. California gas prices are pretty high.

▲ 3 r/tires

Ever since retiring, I've done very little driving. My driving is almost all city driving just a few miles maybe three times a week-1500 miles a year. Maybe once every six weeks, I go 15 miles on the freeway to Sacramento (I live in a suburb). My old tires still have plenty of tread, 7mm, but they are getting old (So am I, but I don't feel that old). The tires are six years old and they look in good shape, but I'm thinking next year of changing them out anyhow. I thought those Phantom HRX tires at America's Tire would be good for someone who has my driving habits. Would they be a good choice?
