The atmosphere is a needy sponge, demanding more and more water as it warms. This "atmospheric thirst" is largely responsible for the increase in drought severity and areal extent seen in the last 40 years, a new study finds. "A hotter world is a thirstier world." www.nytimes.com/2025/06/04/c...

Honestly I’m genuinely surprised it took this long for Musk and Trump to turn on each other - but it was always baked in with these two narcissistic freaks

EXCLUSIVE: Elon Musk’s Reign of Corruption Chronicled in Elizabeth Warren Report www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

A million years ago, this was a national scandal. Today, it is just an every day occurrence that we all tacitly accept.

AI doomers and AI zoomers are two sides of the same coin, powered by a quasi-supernatural belief that God is coming to the machine. The reality is more mundane: that semi-functional AIs will thoroughly undermine the existing social order through myriad systems of abuse.

Musk’s winter blitzkrieg on this once-proud democracy’s Constitution, laws, and traditions leaves behind a trail of institutional wreckage and bureaucratic damage that will take the country decades to undo — if it’s ever able to rebuild successfully. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/with-coup-...

Democrats’ message should surely be: What Sen. Ernst really means here is that the donors, lobbyists, and elites Sen. Ernst now hangs around with don’t much care about some less well-off people dying.

do you ever think about how Donald Trump probably cemented a half-century of control of the Catholic Church by its liberal faction

This was today… Sotally tober… NYT clearly way off base…

My question is: does Elon have to wear a diaper? Now, please excuse me as I laugh maniacally into the roaring abyss like I've just come face to face with Cthulhu...

you guys that is 12.5% of the electorate of the united states lmao this is "grind him into the fucking dirt with no mercy" shit

There's been a shift in the language of climate urgency in the Anglosphere over the last year. Interesting to see China and France issuing a joint statement recognizing "the URGENCY of responding to THE CLIMATE CRISIS and its impact on ecosystem, civil society and global economy"

DAN GREENHAUS, on the Moody’s downgrade: “.. The U.S. is running gigantic, peacetime deficits unlike anything we’ve seen in our lifetimes. As a result, .. in ten years’ time we’ll have $20 trillion more debt and that’s assuming nothing goes ‘wrong’ between now and then.”

trump did not seem to recognize this was an insult, he was like "why don't you have a plane, i want plane"

The United States Institute of Peace has been resurrected. Its staff, reinstated by a court ruling on Monday, have taken back their building. It turns out not all DOGE damage is permanent

“Look, here's burial sites all over the place. These are all white farmers that are being buried,” Donald Trump said during today’s White House meeting with South Africa’s president. The image he was holding up, however, is of the Democratic Republic of Congo. www.barrons.com/news/trump-d...

HOLY SHIT

Yes, this is huge. There seems to be a 7-2 majority on the Court now unwilling to trust that the government will consistently follow through on its word and act in good faith.

LOL
