⚛️Steven Pinker wrote about this, about how Silkwood the movie and moral panic over 3 Mile Island, as well as growing Greens, moved the needle. In non-French Europe Big Time. Bjorn Lomberg has argued that there'd be no carbon/climate problem (and it is a problem, of sorts) if

🗽NYer here, a lifer. Eric has grown on me, he's a decent chap in a hard place and has done fine with the impossible job he has. Bloomberg might...have been a tad better, but Eric is top notch. Both better than stinkin' Dinkins, that last tall fool (DiBlazio), or horrors:

Aella Aella is like if Calvin from Calvin & Hobbes were a slutty adult woman.

Worst American mistake in a generation. Google "MMR". Crackpot grifter nepobaby RFK is The Worst cabinet appointment in a century.

🗽Just went downstairs - get some Mx for dinner, with Puppers in his stroller - and all his "Emperor carried in a Litter" charisma and hilarity. Sun setting between our concrete jungles, "angels in the architecture," traffic, commuters returning home. It occurred to me every

This is the scene I was talking about. Stroller Puppy and me right down there. Chelsea/Village, Manhattan. I❤️NY

🇵🇸Pal cult is a death cult. Can't ya see that? My fellow Americans/westerners... really? I mean - they're TELLING YOU, right out loud. This lovely grandma will leave you no doubt. Their own precious babies are ammunition. 🍉"allies" - you cool with that?

Do you remember when "Environmentalist" meant a few different things to now, like - Don't clear cut forests -Don't dump battery acid in the streams -Don't foul our air and don't club harp seals or harpoon whales. Remember? This was the mode at the time:

But sadly this was lost. Now "Environmentalist" means - anti-capitalist -anti-America or other countries that work -oppose (evidence-less) GMOs. Prob vaccines as well b/c it is all about the (ahem.. female coded) vibes. - Moral panics about the "Klimate Krisis" (sorry, a Swedish

I like older couples who both appear on their X lives. Not young sexies "Ohhh look at my tall, high status man" or "Check out my hottie wife!" stuff. We were all there once. I'm talking older - (hehhe GenXers?) couples who've stood some time, still endure each other, have never,

I'm GenX but I identify as a Millennial. My hairline doesn't, but whatcha gonna do?

The more 3rd world, the more likely passengers will clap on arrival. And the filthier the currency/bills. I've visited shit hole places where the filthy, dissolving bills in your hand make you wretch. "Hmm, not much toilet paper here?" - funny b/c the currency has lots of zeros

🇯🇵 💹💹You'll never experience currency like the Japanese Yen. Not only is it beautiful, every bill you get will be perfect. They seem to change the "stock" every few months so that all the bills you get (and you get a lot b/c they use tech-money less, cash is king) are crisp and

As a language student and anti-wokester, THIS is one of my favorite stories. Don't want to dump on our lovely neighbors🇨🇦❤️ but you're not immune to stupidity, eh?

I guess I see this differently, Mr. Kinzinger and Mr. Krassenstein. Could be just me, lifelong NYC Dem, but I see a young woman of low mate value weaponising self imposed, self directed "victimhood" against legitimate (and more restrained than I'd be) public servants of the state

No, sorry. That porn is causative of anything (beyond masturbation) is a hot take that doesn't stand any empirical scrutiny. There is just no evidence. Causative wise, they've "got nothing on it". Some people - particularly women b/c they're not turned on by it and it eats into

Amazing to consider that a cabinet appointee is more dangerous to public health than any current disease. The Trump grift train continues.🚂 Jokes asides - these vaccine preventable diseases are TERRIBLE. Just.... horrible: lost lives, broken families, dead babies. B/c RFK

Excellent essay from Noah again. Funny - Jamelle Bouie was one of my (many) reasons for unsubscribing, after 20+ years, from the NYTimes. Bouie should probably retire under a rock unlikely to be uncovered - for everybody's benefit. Bye bye Bouie.

Why do so many people, mostly idiots I note, hate Sam Harris? Because he hates Trump? He is articulate and correct in his analysis. All they do is throw their turds at him, never countering his actual arguments. Do this and you're a NPC, a cheerleader, the type of MAGA that sane

🇮🇱🇱🇧Huge Zionist that I am, I've always had a soft spot in my heart for the Lebanese Republic. This not bad documentary by Rare Earth was how I saw the 1970s. And 80s! With my newly arrived in Australia Lebanese friends and then my being there in Beirut in 2006. More horror.
