'One European official quoted anonymously said "We gave him what he wanted, now he's screwing us anyway"' Well, what's new? Hasn't this been his entire business model for all of his career?

Something that kind of dominates my opinions on this issue: - The government absolutely has a "build adequate clean energy to suffice for public need" button it can press at any time, don't let them tell you any different. - Asking people to die of heatstroke "for the climate" is monstrous.

Just a reminder that Orwell’s protagonist in 1984, Winston Groom, works as a copy editor, except that his job entails endlessly “correcting the data” so that the archival record conforms to the Party’s preferred fictions, and what is “known” becomes a principal instrument of conformity.

It really has been fascinating to watch how different Bluesky users respond to the lack of a central algorithm here (and also, a lot of people still don’t seem to know this site has no central algorithm….which Bluesky should make more clear).

The cruelty in today's politics feels horribly corrosive. Bringing up that hard-working immigrant families — undocumented, yes, but not violent criminals — are being ripped apart based on immigration status doesn't bring compassion or even pause, but gleeful cheers.

not sure there's a more embarrassing profession than ICE agent. Oh, you dress like a soldier to abduct sous chefs and throw flashbangs at protesters? Get a real job you loser
