Ooo Türkiye buraya gelmiş, hoşgeldiniz. :D

“The National Socialist party knows that the new government is not a National Socialist government, even though it is conscious that it bears the name of its leader, Adolf Hitler.” He was declaring war on his own government."

That last sentence hits hard.

“After a thirteen-year struggle the National Socialist movement has succeeded in breaking through into the government, but the struggle to win the German nation is only beginning,” Hitler proclaimed, and then added venomously: (...)

Maybe there is no presedence in US history, but there surely is at least 1 presedence in history. Quoting from The Atlantic:

"The next day, Hitler announced new Reichstag elections, to be held in early March, and issued a memorandum to his party leaders. (...)

Opinion | The Familiar Arrogance of Musk’s Young Apparatchiks He and his team are treating the government like hostile territory to be conquered.

This is a good article, except for this part:

"But the reason it feels like a coup is that we have no precedent for an administration treating its own government like a hostile territory to be conquered and exploited."

Elon Musk Has Used Illegal Drugs, Worrying Leaders at Tesla and SpaceX Some executives and board members fear the billionaire’s use of drugs—including LSD, cocaine, ecstasy, mushrooms and ketamine—could harm his companies.

Yeah, stay away from ketamine too.

It's cool when magicians do it.

Real life is not magical.

"He who lives trusting, dies betrayed."

At least do it right(er).

This is insanely open minded and visionary. Kudos! 🥂

I think we all know that President Trump cannot "respectfully ask" anything.

"Reason" TV lol...

I don't know if this has a name already, but I have a theory that whatever a brand calls itself (or makes its motto), we can be 80% sure that they will act in complete opposition to that name and/or motto.

Well, if the expected outcome was that, I'd call it a success. :P

Each month from January to June 2024 was warmer than the corresponding month in any previous year on record. Each month from July to December, except August, was each the second warmest, after 2023, for the time of year. August 2024 was tied with August 2023 as the warmest on record.

2024 saw three record-warm seasons for the corresponding time of the year: boreal winter (December 2023-February 2024), boreal spring (March-May) and boreal summer (June-August) at 0.78°C, 0.68°C and 0.69°C respectively above the 1991-2020 average.

2024 was the warmest year for all continental regions, except Antarctica and Australasia (2), as well as for sizeable parts of the ocean, particularly the North Atlantic Ocean, the Indian Ocean, and the western Pacific Ocean.

A new record high for daily global average temperature was reached on 22 July 2024, at 17.16°C.

The monthly global average temperature exceeded 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels for 11 months of the year. Going back further, all months since July 2023, except for July 2024, have exceeded the 1.5°C level.

Each of the past 10 years (2015–2024) was one of the 10 warmest years on record.

This is equivalent to 1.60°C above an estimate of the 1850-1900 temperature designated to be the pre-industrial level.

2024 was the warmest year in global temperature records going back to 1850. According to ERA5 (1), the global average temperature of 15.10°C was 0.72°C above the 1991-2020 average, and 0.12°C above 2023, the previous warmest year on record.

Embargo is lifted: 2024 is the first year to exceed 1.5°C above pre-industrial level.

Congratulations, world!

Can't tell much due to the embargo, but Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) is about to announce some pretty scary results.

I fear that no one cares about it anymore and their children is about to suffer bad consequences.

Nikki Glaser is one of my absolute favorite comedians and I have to say: She crushed it at the Golden Globes!

Incredible job!

I don't know if the social media is running out of content, or if the algorithms are stupid enough to show the same things over and over again, but I can't find anything that's not repetitive of something else that I've already seen.

I hope it's true for everyone so we can move on from SM.

"Big Soap" 🤦‍♂️
