Just a quick reminder this afternoon that no one has ever invaded a country or taken their leader hostage to steal their solar panels. Added bonus: a solar spill? Just a sunny day.

Taking over Venezuela is not about drugs or democracy, but about four other things. And it marks a "new world order" that is just the final flaring up of a monstrously metastasized old one. terrestrialism.substack.com/p/venezuela-...

For an eco-realist approach to AI

The arrival of Artificial Intelligence brings us two golden opportunities. Only one of them is technological. Both of them are deeply philosophical.

„It’s wild that the American VP is criticizing European countries for stifling freedom of speech. In the Press Freedom Index, the US ranks 55th, while Sweden is 3rd and Germany 10th. Russia, meanwhile, sits at 162.“ Pekka Kallioniemi

There’s a lesson in the mass firings of federal employees, carried out as part of an administrative coup by the world’s wealthiest tech oligarch, in the country that until recently was seen as the paragon of stability and prosperity. That lesson is that we are all dispensable now. shorturl.at/dXUk5

Their aim is nothing short of a new Dark Ages. Anti-science, anti-education, anti-democracy, in favor of needless human suffering. NIH cuts billions of dollars in biomedical funding, effective immediately www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

NIH cuts billions of dollars in biomedical funding, effective immediately

The move halts a large slice of money for most universities and research institutions virtually overnight, imperiling vital research in everything from cancer to heart disease.

It's not just weather. Work with foreign nationals is a BIG part of what NOAA does - from climate negotiations (UNFCC, IPCC, Montreal Protocol), ocean (biodiversity conservation, fisheries, species protections), to space (satellites, space launches, etc.).

The beginnings of a resource guide for what's happening in the US... "Now is not a time for meekly tut-tutting our disapproval -- or for shouting “coup!” and “fascism!” without the necessary analysis. What we do need is Aikido- or Jujitsu-style redirections of their energy." shorturl.at/PskYh

Canada’s response to U.S. tariffs. Justin Trudeau's best speech. Canada will place 25% tariffs on $155 billion in US imports in retaliation for Trump tariffs. That is an addition to a nationwide boycott on all US products across Canada. #cdnpoli #tariffwar

Not enough has been made of this Ipsos poll from last month, which shows that viewers of right-wing media (Fox News, Breitbart, Newsmax, et al) are off-the-scale misguided about the true state of the economy, inflation, immigration, crime, etc. If media accuracy was required, they'd be off the air.
