The Big Fucked Up Bill, is NOT a spending bill. It’s a government restructuring bill, that consolidates power in the executive, defunds critical services to the point of absurdity, removes the power of our courts to enforce the law and dramatically curtails voting rights. It’s Project 2025

Starship Troopers (1997) and WALL-E (2008) , IMHO two most important and most ignored, early warnings for humanity that came from Hollywood. The sci-fi genre gave us also Elysium in 2013. Each of those three is way more prophetic than we wanted to admit, and more valuable than e.g. Dune.

It's not only that we have forgotten the historical lessons of the 1930s, raise of fascism, the Holocaust and World War Two. We've stopped incorporating them in the popular culture, allowing the fascism to sprout again. Pink Floyd's The Wall is the creation of the 1980s... we have been warned.

The Trump administration has climbed down from the court-defying pedestal where it perched for months, claiming that Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s future was beyond its control, Nick Miroff reports.

The whole field needs rebranding: It's not about "saving the planet" (as if it were a distinct thing), it's about saving ourselves. Securing a safe, stable future. Climate science is as much about the impending ecological collapse (and subsequent famines) as it is about weather. #ClimateBrawl

Is there any follow up to this paper? It's from 2017 but it might be an answer for all the incels 🤣 The scientists explain this as “mate deprivation”, a theory that suggests that animals that don’t have access to females are more likely to show such behaviour. www.independent.co.uk/news/science...

Irony here is heavy as lead... but than again it died in America long time ago. When, in your opinion, the political reality jumped the shark, and we somehow entered this bizarre, parallel timeline where black is white, wrong is right, and crooked is moral? Was it the golden elevator moment?
