wild to be living in a world with live-streamed state executions and legal daylight kidnappings, but every time you turn around some loser is saying, hey man, what if art were completely frictionless? what if we killed even the possibility of human connection??

But they're using renewables! a) they're not, they're all quietly pivoting to dedicated natural gas plants, built by their oil buddies, b) renewables should be used to power useful shit c) this makes it so that renewables don't displace fossil fuels, they just add to supply for increasing demand

It's weird being in a country where skeletal thinness is once again being pushed as a beauty aesthetic, and where people are spending a lot of money on drugs to meet it (I'm talking about already thin people here) while starvation is being used as a weapon a war half a world away.

As states fight over the dwindling Colorado River, tribes are getting left out. 30 federally recognized tribes have legal claims to the Colorado River–many that predate western states. But none have a seat at the table. Last winter, the Fort Mojave Tribe's pump couldn't pull water for four months.

The U.S. "War on Terror" death toll is at least 4,500,000
Costs of War research examines the human toll of U.S. military operations and spending, for U.S. service members, veterans, military contractors, and allies; and for civilians killed and displaced.
An estimated over 940,000 people were killed by direct post-9/11 war violence in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Yemen, and Pakistan between 2001-2023. Of these, more than 432,000 were civilians. The number of people wounded or ill as a result of the conflicts is far higher, as is the number of civilians who died "indirectly," as a result of wars' destruction of economies, healthcare systems, infrastructure and the environment. An estimated 3.6-3.8 million people died indirectly in post-9/11 war zones, bringing the total death toll to at least 4.5-4.7 million and counting.

This is ADL's solitary statement after Nazis won state elections in Germany for the first time since the Holocaust:
ADL
@ADL
Ed Sheeran’s fans came for a concert, not performative, biased and hateful anti-Israel “activism” from his opener, Macklemore.

Imagine being a Jewish or Israeli fan who came with family or friends to enjoy the show, only to be confronted with this hostility from the stage. Or feeling so unwelcome by the opening act that you leave early.

This isn’t new for Macklemore. He has a record of demonizing Israel and Israelis, falsely accusing Israel of genocide and engaging in antisemitic rhetoric and behavior.

This is completely unacceptable.

(with embedded video of Macklemore's remarks on Palestine at the Ed Sheeran MetLife concert)

Thirty-four days before she reported to prison, Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes gave Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim access to document her every move. That turned into a three-year project, and A24 will release the resulting documentary this October.

4 in 5 Native women will experience violence in their lifetime. 97% of those perpetrators are non-Native. Why? A 1978 Supreme Court ruling, Oliphant v. Suquamish Indian Tribe, said tribes can't prosecute non-Natives who commit crimes on their own land.
