It's truly wild so many people have stayed on Twitter when openly racist & homophobic replies get catapulted right to the top of a lot of posts.

Global average temperature is expected to rise to almost 2C above preindustrial in the next five years, according to the WMO, with falls in crop yields and more than a third of the world’s population being exposed to extreme heat.

People, I'm sorry but we have to deal with this. Later is too late.

Whatever you might hear from fascist billionaires, Mars is extremely dry, extremely coldβ€”and extremely inhospitable.

For the energy, effort, and expense it takes to make Mars habitable for humans we could ensure that Earth is protected, cherished, and able to care for countless generations to come.

In disordered discourse:

Engagement > accuracy
Performance > governance
Emotion > evidence
Identity = target

The logic of the algorithm now structures political speech. It rewards those who dramatise difference and punish deviation from the tribe.

What's the fewest number of teams lost to (post expansion)? Quick scan looks like the 76-77 Habs only lost to 5 different teams while 2022-23 Bruins look to have lost to ten distinct teams?

Also, has anyone beat all 29, 30, or 31 other teams in a single season recently?

The people who want to mine 3He on the moon are space cadets: they need an excuse to go to the moon, so they picked this one.

It's bullshit on stilts. First postulate an advanced reactor tech we're nowhere near building, then source the MOST expensive fuel for it instead of the cheapest.

THEY'RE TALKING COMPLETE BULLSHIT.

Would be happy to be proven wrong by seeing a long-term habitat built 4000m below the ocean's surface or in Everest's Death Zone. Even with those environments offering significant advantages over anything else in our solar system... 6/*
