4°C/7.2°F of warming by 2084. Whether or not you understand what that means, understand that we CAN AND MUST rapidly phase out fossil fuels, because failing to do so is a death sentence for most people and life on Earth. This is not a drill.

Day 197 of daily nationwide protests in Georgia. 10:30 PM. Protesters in Tbilisi have blocked both the Rustaveli Avenue AND a major intersection on Chavchavadze Avenue, in the city center. It seems like we're staying the night here.

Hard wetenschappelijk bewijs gevonden dat onkruidverdelger glyfosaat bij laboratoriumratten kanker veroorzaakt. Zou dit nog iets uitmaken voor minister Wiersma, die op “meer onderzoek” zat te wachten? Of is onderzoek alleen belangrijk als het helpt bij uitstel, en feiten alleen als ze goed uitkomen?

Reporter: “What real leverage do you have to make Russia stop?” Trump: “Look, they’re losing 5,000 soldiers a week.” Reporter: “But they don’t care.” Trump: “Well, maybe not... we make progress, then something gets bombed, and it’s over. Let’s see if we can change that.” This man has no leverage.

Verschrikkelijk fout. Je ziet ook hoe onbeholpen deze militairen opereren in een taak die bij de politie hoort.

A surreal scene: as huge festive fireworks light up the sky, protesters read out the names of Georgia’s 60+ political prisoners. The fireworks likely came from a fancy event where friends spotted GD propagandist Levan Gigineishvili. Day 195 of daily protests in Georgia.

the fact that people were told “today you are going to an elementary school to lie to teachers and kidnap kids” and didn’t immediately tell their bosses to go fuck themselves is all you need to know about why ICE should be dismantled

For those of us who’ve spend the last 6 months discussing how the Trump would use deportations to create chaos is the Blue states and then use that chaos as an excuse to declare a national emergency and seize total power, things are right on schedule.

Het land naar de afgrond geholpen en dan vertrekken alsof ze net een uitverkochte reeks in de Arena met de Toppers heeft afgesloten en nu welverdiend op vakantie mag. Volledig losgezongen van elke realiteit.

Het heet ‘Wilders’ 10-puntenplan’, maar laten we stoppen met eufemismen. Er wordt gesproken over een xenofoob, repressief, onrechtstatelijk en ontmenselijkend offensief dat de kernwaarden van onze democratie ondermijnt. Dat hier serieus over wordt vergaderd, is op zichzelf al een schandaal.

A lot of people know about the Germans in the space program, but the more relevant engineer might be Qian Xuesen, the MIT/CalTech aerospace professor who co-founded JPL and was sent to recruit the Germans. We deported him the 1950s. He became the leader of China’s missile program.

Elon Musk wakes up, bleary and disoriented. "Grimes, I just had the weirdest dream..." he mutters as he rolls over to her. "Tell me all about it, Space Daddy," replies Stephen Miller's wife in bed beside him. "Yeah, tell her," comes Stephen's bitter voice from a chair in the semi-darkness.
