Wenn jetzt alle paar Jahre ร–l- und Gaskrise ist, weil ein autoritรคrer Rechter einen Krieg anzettelt, ist das vielleicht ein Zeichen des Universums, dass man sich weder fรผr ร–l und Gas, noch fรผr autoritรคre Rechte entscheiden sollte.

I know we're all seeing 87 unhinged things per day, but "guys if our multi billion dollar product doesn't start being useful for something, literally anything, the people might not appreciate us wrecking the planet over it anymore" is a truly bananapants thing to say out loud

I regularly see people wondering how it's possible that there are so many musicians and writers and film makers and artists from a tiny nation like Iceland.

And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.

A reminder to the news media: โ€œconflicting accountsโ€ is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.
