Why is anyone still on there?

At least it’s hypothetically possible to create with less net carbon impact than fossil fuels. It still has a long way to go, but we’ve got to invest in things that aren’t practical right now if we ever want aviation to decarbonize.

Refusing to condemn Hamas when they intentionally target civilians for atrocities won’t win Palestinians any supporters outside largely irrelevant internet communities. Israel does things that are clearly in the wrong all the time, and so does Hamas. It would be nice if people could hold the extremists on their own side to a minimal standard, even when it’s uncomfortable, but that lack of accountability is why we’re here.

I, for one, am absolutely boggled right now

Remove the subsidies and institute an actual carbon price mechanism, and we’ll see how quickly people begin to switch over.

Modi has really taken his country in an authoritarian direction.

Canada seems to be having a moment with this one. Standing ovation for an open Waffen-SS veteran in parliament was a bad look…

It’s hypothetically possible that we could hack biology enough to become functionally immortal, but do you really want that? Considering the impact 90 year old Senators are having I’m just imagining an ever more out of touch gerantocracy. Imagine young people being born into a world where no one ever retires or dies, and their opinions are fixed based on what they experienced 100 years ago. Change is good.

Soon it will be possible to cling to the broken shell of what you once were, a mere vessel for arthritis pain and bittersweet memories of a time when you used to be able to walk to the bathroom. Hooray!
