Sprawl locks in car dependency, alienation, loneliness, and higher costs for municipal services and utilities. Sprawl displaces farmland, natural habitat, and open space. Sprawl is climate denialism.

I cannot do enough to stress how much money the executive class simply helps itself to, and how much it really is just that - helping themselves. Once again I say - the problem with “AAA” game dev is not “games are too expensive to make.” It’s that game execs are too expensive to pay.

every liberal spent the last 9 years convincing themselves that 100% of the left voted for Trump (despite the left begging centrists to take him as a serious threat while the center gave him free advertising) that they're now SO excited they get to vote to be racist AND punish young people

For some people, a perfectly normal landscape looks like an alien world as they never had the slightest impetus to look at the world around themselves until it gets sold to them as a game, or a film.

It is very cool and not concerning at all that rfk has replaced all of US government science admin with a bunch of weird pedophile antivax wellness influencers who can't help but outsource all their work to the machine that tells you that you can add gasoline to spaghetti sauce.

One thing I very much dislike about Wikipedia is how inconsistent it is: Articles in one language, say German, often directly contradict other languages, like English. Articles in the same language but on the same topic can directly contradict each other.

If like me you care about media being usable after official support ends, check it: eci.ec.europa.eu/045/public/#... If you're an EU citizen leaving your signature's quick enough. If you're not, you can at least pass it around. Either way thanks! Bit more info in 🧵 #stopkillinggames

The masked agents pull up quickly. They jump out of unmarked vans. They wear blue jeans or battle fatigues. They approach Latinos, yelling and carrying assault rifles. If someone runs, they’re taken. If they don’t answer a question, they’re taken. If they can’t produce papers, they’re taken.

You ever think of how much good he could have done with that metaverse bullshit money? Like he could have cut childhood poverty in half and been beloved for generations but instead he was like LEGS LEGS LEGS and no one got anything at all except those funny pictures of him

Well the “NOAA Climate” and “NASA Climate” social media feeds - a key tool to communicate the massive challenge of climate change to the world - are now gone.

Endlich! Der Mann hat übrigens auch schon Kindergarten-Kinder und Lehrlinge für ihre «unschweizerischen» Namen an den Pranger gestellt oder ein Video geteilt, in dem ein Impfzentrum mit einem KZ gleichgesetzt wurde. Und sowas sitzt (immer noch) im Parlament.

#FossilFriday Elrathia kingi is one of the most common trilobites in the Cambrian rocks of Utah’s West Desert. Thousands are found yearly—many geologists have one on their fridge. Yet this specimen - first published in 2008 - is the only one I know of that preserves both limbs and gut remains. 🤩

Next time somebody talks about "the Iraq war" or "the Vietnam war" I will ask "which one?". Iraq and Viet Nam had many wars in the past, it makes no sense to talk about the Second Gulf War as "the war" or the Second Indochina War as "the war".

Believe it or not, the usual suspects are trying to sell the little blip at the end of the Antarctic ice loss curve (due to a few strong snowfall events in East Antarctica) as proof that "global warming is a hoax". It shows once again that "climate skeptics" don't have honest arguments.

For everonye outside of germany, a superrich family fumbled dodging taxes and now paid the record sum of 4 BILLION euros. Which would cover nationwide child coverage by 166% That is the amount of money countries miss out on due to rich people evading taxes

Some former employees of the NOAA who were fired, rehired and fired again this spring say they have received debt notices from the federal government to pay it back for health care coverage. Those workers also say the notices are for coverage they never had.

it's like.... not even controversial to observe that Israel is using food aid as bait to mass murder a starving population? Even in this AP story, there is barely even a counter-narrative beyond "Uh, well, you know, Hamas? ah, fuck it."
