Alt headline: "energy analyst promotes carbon cost accounting and nuclear deproliferation"

Among the first agencies President Donald Trump gutted after taking office for his second term was a Department of Homeland Security team that had repeatedly disproved his stolen election claims.

Everyone make sure to read books this weekend, preferably old ones.

This man never experienced love and is making the world suffer for his trauma.

From where you're kneeling it must seem like an 18-carat run of bad luck. But, truth is... the game was rigged from the start.

How can people critically evaluate disinformation and misinformation if they literally don't know how to read at an adult level?

Caffeine made ants work systematically harder and accelerate their own ecological destruction? *glances around at humanity

The zero-accountability admin... Unaccountable to land use changes, unaccountable to the cost of carbon, unaccountable to polluted water and air. All marketing, no substance.

Mini-nuke lore? Mini-nuke lore.

I realize that the formal and legal mechanisms, designed as they to arrest the malfeasance of mere gunpowder kings, are too slow and clunky for the mad dreams of a thermonuclear monarch with a globe-spanning petroleum empire, but I'd still rather see them tried than resign myself to nothing.

The Herodotus Trap, if you will.

No offense history will not be kind to anyone in government from either party. You all fucking suck.

The funny thing about war crimes, if the court condemning said crimes has no authority to judge or mechanism to enforce them, then the crimes become hot air.

doomers are unsurpassed

Happy Easter, everyone.

Somebody send Guido the "hey friend listen" meme

Fellow doomers, thank you for sharing your unique and valuable perspectives on collapse. These moments are precious. Don't forget to log off and touch grass✌️

Only 23% of government workers believe they “can report a suspected violation of a law, rule, or regulation without experiencing retaliation.” That's way down form the share the prior year (72%) who said they could report suspected illegal activity without fear www.thebulwark.com/p/two-more-g...

How the episode ends: 99: Oh Max, what a terrible weapon of destruction! Max: Yes. You know, China, Russia, and France should outlaw all nuclear weapons. We should insist upon it. 99: What if they won’t, Max? Max: Then we may have to blast them. It’s the only way to keep peace in the world.

It's also profoundly unfair to Americans (and the world) for their elected representatives to abdicate their duty considering war powers. "According to the form of this constitution, the assent of every citizen is necessary to decide the question, Whether war shall be declared or not." - Kant

Electricity isn't real, the world is secretly powered by the hypocrisy generated by our elected representatives

Evergreen skeet

A gentle reminder: It's very important that we try to have a nice day at this time. #collapse

Studying Kant's recommended path for perpetual peace and holy shit are we far from it

"Why didn't you tell me about Pearl Harbor?"

Nice, a pop-up bar where every single person you'd meet is a screaming red flag

Look at how they all talk about a singularity, how they've so eagerly and pathetically recreated evangelical Christianity from libertarian first principles and classic golden age science fiction written by sexual predators.

the overshoot doomers have always been right about the destination, just not everyone agrees on the timeline

We'll meet again... don't know where, don't know when, but I know we'll meet again some sunny day ☢️

I think it's cool that every day one of these guys asserts something ludicrous about history and there's someone sitting across from them who nods and smiles as a trough full of horseshit washes over them.

No stupid rules of engagement

The world is remarkably different almost 200 years after Von Clausewitz, and yet there's nothing new under the sun.

They say two-thousand zero zero, party over, oops out of time...

That scene in Cormac McCarthy's The Road where the son and father enjoy a preserved Coca-Cola...

Situation is FUBAR, what should we call this one? World War 3 or The Great Overshoot War?

This is the kind of news reel footage you see at the start of a nuclear apocalypse film. Things turn grainy, the sound blurs, and then you cut to montage of things getting rapidly worse.

Why? for regime change? for seizing oil? for a holy war? Because the Trump et al Regime decides to. This is not how democracies are supposed to go to war & this specifically is internationally illegal and domestically unconstitutional.

No stupid rules of engagement

Trump: "I can do anything I want to do to them ... I'm allowed to destroy the country."

Anticipated acceleration of anti-life policy

The largest investor in the Trump's BribeCoin was also pardoned by Trump. What are the odds?

Remember, every time you spread misinformation, a librarian's blood pressure goes up. Keep librarians healthy by verifying before you post.

I didn’t stress it yesterday, but the megalomaniacal narcissism required for Trump to perpetuate this gargantuan, self-aggrandizing, bald-faced lie is off the scale: “I have stopped Nuclear Wars from breaking out across the World between Pakistan and India, Iran and Israel, and Russia and Ukraine.”

Johnson, how's that map coming?

Im Westen nichts Neues

President of the United States audibly shits himself in a press conference and that's the least offensive thing his administration will do that day 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
