very smart. russia has about 1000 of these ships they won't hunt them all down, BUT: many these ships are not russia's property. they belong to large shipping companies from which russia leases them from. the pressure is on these companies and their insurance.

if true this could be significant. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4r5ISyUUpPc

about the #venezuela #oil stuff. the oil in venezuela is not like oil from texas. it is more like the tar sands in alberta and there are reason why it has never been really considered. chris wright knows that very well. #trump is mad at venezuela bc he's a #racists and that's basically it […]

somehow this whole #ai #bs is just another iteration o burn through resources without creating anything of any practical value for society. that's the diminishing returns for a society that, overall, already has everything.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@kaliagainstallodds/115661878613123947 #organic #agriculture is actually one of the great success stories which improved quiet a lot by innovation and just doing things a little smarter. not all hope is lost.

Have we considered the possibility that one of the reasons there has been a noticeable slump in public concern on climate is because there has been a noticeable slump of concern for climate from *within the movement itself*

Every astronomer who complains about satellite streaks has heard the same response from techbro-types: "Why don't you just put all your telescopes in space?" There are an incredibly large number of reasons why that is totally not going to work. But here's another from Borloff et al "Satellite […]

yeah, i understand how you can come from the #systemsthinking to the #accelerationism, i can emotionally understand it. but i refuse to live my life in fear.

This is also interesting i think. wallerstein was an interesting guy. his thesis was that there are systemic and anti-systemic social movements (meaning supporting the current system or seeking to overturn capitalism, basically) and that fascists are anti-establishment systemic movements, which […]

confession. i like girls, too and it is always their smile that gets me. its some some of magic going on there. today i saw a cute black girl who smiled at me passing by and it made my entire day, put a big grin on my face the entire day now. :)

ALSO #degrowth & #TalkCollapse was a nice idea, it could have worked, but it has been taken over by people who's professional hobby it is to complain about shit on the internet and made it the sole purpose of their lives to be dissatisfied with every. possible. thing.

i hope in the near future when #trump is gone ALL you guys will remember what has been said by whom and when and who turned out to be a fucking traitor, putting a knife in the back of their entire community. #uspol

the only one in the room who ALWAYS, i mean ALWAYS insist on their #moralehighround are you dumb #USgreens anti #renewables #degrowth bitches. just constant bitching and complaining on everything possible is all that has ever been coming from YOU guys. 0 self awareness. 0.

says the guy who thinks trump & biden are basically the same and hangs out with the jill stein sellouts. go f yourself, art. god how have i ever been friends with these idiots.

In announcing the #neworleans op, the #trump admin said it was pursuing “the worst of the worst” criminals who were in the country illegally, & included a list of 10 people it said had been released from local jails because of #sanctuarycity policies. Most of the people detained in past ops […]

#immigrant advocates have been warning residents to reduce their time outdoors, given the outcomes of past ops in #losangeles, #chicago & #charlotte, NC. …previous efforts in those cities were led by the #cbp & lying sack of💩] Greg #Bovino, who have been criticized for their “aggressive tactics” […]

#youtube has become such a mess with the #ai #slop. i just searched for "double dutch" and "reggea" (bc honestly the is the most uplifting stuff on yt right now) - however, it gave me this BS. what sort of #scam is this FFS? https://www.youtube.com/shorts/KOJ29cG4cWU

REALLY chuffed to be invited to @parismarx.com's incredible @techwontsave.us pod to talk about not just the climate harms we face from an uncontrolled data centre expansion but the way companies enacting it seem to think they're cape-wearing climate superheroes -->>> techwontsave.us/episode/304_...

In a statement, Jacklyn Rogers, a spox for Rep #ilhanomar, said, “The congresswoman thinks his obsession with her is unhealthy and hopes he gets help.” #trump also used a slur when he said that Gov #timwalz of #minnesota was “seriously retarded” for welcoming #immigrants from #Somalia. In a […]

In a social media post Thursday night, #trump claimed that #somalis were “taking over” #minnesota & that Somali gangs were “roving the streets looking for ‘prey.’” He accused Rep #ilhanomar, #democrat of Minnesota, who came to the US from #somalia as a #refugee & became a #citizen 25 years ago […]

…While there have not yet been reports of large-scale arrests in the #minneapolis area, #immigration operations often vary in scale & residents in the city have been on edge amid Trump’s increasingly dark rhetoric. In recent days, #trump has moved to end temporary legal protections for #Somalis […]

The effort, which is beginning this week, supposedly] focuses largely on #Somalis with final #deportation orders who are living in the [#TwinCities, though the ofcl said that others who are still seeking legal status could be swept up as well. The plan calls for the deployment of so-called […]

The move comes as #trump has fixated on #somalis living in the #us, using increasingly racist language to attack them. He stepped up his rhetoric in the wake of last week’s shooting of 2 #nationalguard members in DC, even though the man suspected in the attack is an #afghan national. The […]

Just what #minneapolis needs, more #policebrutality against #black people. This time courtesy of #ice & #CBP. #trump is desperate to use the #InsurrectionAct. The Trump admin is set to begin an operation targeting #somali #immigrants in the Minneapolis - #stpaul region, acc/to an official […]

what is #trump on about with #somalia... i swear this is so random, i bet every day he rolls a dice over what country to be mad at.

While "peace" negotiations continue, remember that Russia could simply stop the war at any time.
