Everybody get ready to bookmark this! Decouple Media’s Jesse Freeston just dropped the definitive video riposte to the perennial question: “What about the waste?” x.com/Dr_Keefer/stat…

In my latest essay I try to highlight 2 key pts on climate change: - current climate research doesn’t expect any imminent global tipping point that will spark runaway climate change - climate tipping elements exist, but human emissions matter much more🧵 thebreakthrough.org/journal/climat…

EP asked me some questions I'd never been asked about how I came to my interest in #nuclearenergy. It ended up getting real philosophical, political and a little nutty. But mostly fun.

10 of the best secs you'll ever see of #cdnmedia on CBC 🤣🤣 Fifth Estate, 1980 "Experts" never identified. Were probably as shocked as anyone when they saw producers actually aired this madness. Unknown if host Adrienne Clarkson approved or just bit her tongue + read the script

A large portion of Twitter is deeply confused about civility, generosity of spirit, charity, benefit of the doubt and other antique ideas. They don’t understand how powerful they are when you need to make progress. They instead think that they are for the weak or some irrelevant

Science tells us lots about human-caused warming + what might happen if we burn ALL fossil fuels. But on selecting the best responses to the challenge, it is only a tool and not an authority unto itself. Important piece of the puzzle by Patrick T. Brown thebreakthrough.org/journal/climat…

1st time in my life watching Team Canada play a world-class opponent and have the best player in the game, hands down. Thank you Shai Gilgeous-Alexander for all the work you've put in. It's a true joy watching you play basketball. #FIBAWC

THE CANADIAN MENS TEAM IS GOING TO THE OLYMPICS LETS FUCKING GOOOOOO

I'm on the toilet at #COP28 and I can report that someone got pee on the toilet seat. Does that mean the wrong humans are here? That humans in general don't care about others so we're f$%@ed no matter who comes? Or that someone was in a rush and forgot to put the seat up?

In two months, Israel has destroyed a greater proportion of Northern Gaza than the Allies did of Dresden and Cologne. It’s approaching Hamburg levels.

Wael Dahdouh back on air. I'm out of words to describe this man.

hey NBA. Your refs are making it obvious you want the Los Angeles Lakers in the playoffs more than the Toronto Raptors. If you insist on thinking of it as a product, at least remember your product is a sport that needs at least the appearance of unbiased officiating. If this continues I'm out.

After watching all 10 films nominated for Best Picture I'm fairly certain that Zone of Interest is the only one I will still be thinking about in 10 years. It's simultaneously the most timeless and also the most important for this moment, as Naomi excellently explains...

In Lebanon, Israel is not even bothering to invent excuses for bombing hospitals and fire stations. There is no attempt to fabricate claims about "command and control centers". They are just openly destroying civilian infrastructure on a massive scale.

A light reminder on the historical connection between free trade, happiness and cranberry juice that I haven’t seen elsewhere.

#Gold is the #crypto of minerals. Almost no real use case. Also: Gold's pretty colour comes from its inner electrons moving so fast their masses increase, Einstein-style, and absorb high-energy blue light while reflecting out the 'warmer' wavelengths aka glittering. Very cool.

Llevo más de una década intentando explicarle al pueblo hondureño de que los humanos somos mucho más talentosos y creativos con nuestras manos q con los pies. Por fin llega un líder que lo ve claro, de q el basket es objetivamente mejor q el fútbol. Manos arribaaaa!!! 🏀🏀🏀
