Leaving everything else aside, the Solar Revolution is just an unbelievably positive development, we aren’t that far away from “people in the Global South can run A/C all summer with extremely cheap zero carbon energy” which would have been essentially unthinkable even like 10 years ago

We likely understate the role of aggregate economic gains as a key cause of political change. Analysts like to point more to economic degradation or insecurity, but economic gains helped refocus politics on social & cultural conflict & made interest group conflict less resolvable

It’s a great touch in THE TWO TOWERS that the orcs that kidnap Merry and Pippin have to speak Common amongst themselves because their dialects of Orcish are mutually unintelligible

Local election officials fully expect ICE to show up to intimidate liberal voters.

the Roman aristocrats were big slavers, so occasionally take that into account when considering online right-wing Rome cosplayer masturbators

This diva

i’m slightly pretty-handsome…

those poor bastards aren’t content with their own chosen social boundaries

i mean, yes. but left of center people do not need right wing spaces in the same way right wing people need left / liberal spaces because right wing americans are antisocial freaks who build nothing of value for society.

kind of funny just how similar the personality frequencies and distributions look across cultural and “racial” populations

There is little more American than the home garage

Amazing that the United States government, with all its resources and avenues of action, has a worse relationship with the government of Iran than I do.

in the future my job will be academics herder

you can t just shoot a antipersonnel weapon at the building you gotta use like a bazooka

we must outbreeed conservatives. and by implication we must out-kiss, -wine and dine, and -fuck conservatives.

Had my first child relatively late and used it as a spur to try and get in less bad shape. A true highlight of my life came at 42, when I heard two mums at the school gate confirm to one another that I'd "get it". Floated through the rest of the day.

we need simple Democrats In Name Only theory👏🏻

Mads Mikkelsen was on my flight from Copenhagen! Helped a lady retrieve her suitcase. Class act all the way. Stay with us here on BlueSky for more uplifting celebrity gossip.

Artorias of the Abyss of Social Media

my prominent series of extraordinary victories has not in the slightest affected my judgement and self-esteem, why do you ask

My contemporarily scorned and belittled anti-eliminationist tract: “Republican Voters In a Just Society: What Is to Be Done?”

i used to be able to tell google search to search an image and it would pop up a bunch of other instances of that image online with different image sizes or resolutions or whatever listed. no more. what a crock of shit

silly of the theists who try to reason publicly about their necessarily merely private convictions to complain and tut-tut and bitch and whine that Actually Evil in the world is Necessary and Actually Not really evil at all if you think about it, but then also they say “Aha! But there is justice

these evil fucking bozos. i deserve better. but far more importantly, so did the all the people these evil fucking bozos—including Trump voters—got killed by destroying USAID and murdering with missiles at sea

alright look. yes, i shat liquid poop into the pool bc it got lots of attention which allowed me to make money off the attention. and yes, as you insist, we are both now chest-deep in the liquid poop water pool. but i made good money for it

I am a proud and pro-women WHORE

many of them voted for trump knowing he’s a sleazy corrupt piece of shit and voted bc they wanted a sleazy corrupt piece of shit to do a bunch of nasty evil things for them. and i’m not just talking about calling people names and joking about the attempt on Nancy Pelosi’s life at a rally.

Our planet is nothing less than extraordinary Why are we destroying it? Wonderful drone video of mobula rays... #WarOnNature #Metacrisis

Who needs a bug hug? #kancraft

When a pilot flew through one of the strongest aurora storms in years, he saw the sky literally explode in color. From the cockpit of a Boeing 787, Matt Melnyk had a view like no one else. Flying at 37,000 feet over Manitoba, he watched as the auroras filled the entire sky. Original post

Every couple months I check in on the latest Adrian Chiles articles and I’m always absolutely blown away. These are all from the last couple months. The man is operating at an incredibly high level.

I’m no fan of these people but this coming from a president is appalling.
