Trying to use less plastic? Big Oil and the plastics industry are spending billions to make sure everyone else uses more. “I think what stood out most is the deliberateness and intentionality over the years of pushing plastic into our lives,” said @bethgardiner.bsky.social. “It was such a shock."

Fresh off the tape, Bloomberg on the physical crude market facing slowdowns in refiner purchases. Will post public URL when it's available, until then here's one for Terminal people: blinks.bloomberg.com/news/stories...
By Yongchang Chin, Sherry Su and Bill Lehane
(Bloomberg) -- Refiners are beginning to balk at eye-watering premiums on available oil barrels, threatening to slow down the flow of the world’s most traded commodity as the war in the Middle East upends energy markets.
Markups of as much as $40 a barrel above benchmarks in the Middle East, $13 in Brazil and $10 in Azerbaijan — on top of sky-high freight rates — are leading refineries to hold off purchases at a time when many are cutting crude processing and fuel prices are surging. The soaring premiums and hesitation to close deals were related by several traders with direct knowledge of supply talks. 
The holdup is just the latest sign that traders and refineries around the world are increasingly scrambling to adjust to the upheaval in a region that accounts for a fifth of global crude supplies. This could further exacerbate the shortages of fuel that are showing up in some markets around the world.

The bright red critical word in this is "Schmittian", which is the core of this whole thing. Carl Schmitt, as much as any single person, laid the ideological foundations of Nazi political methodology and the ways that the right can subvert and capture liberal democracies. They're all nazis at heart.

Community-based alternatives to detention are estimated to reduce immigration detention spending by up to 80%. Those programs have seen very little federal investment compared to the billions flowing to private detention operators.

Congress approved $3.4 billion in taxpayer funding for ICE detention in FY 2024, a $500 million increase over the prior year. The 2025 federal spending law added another $191 billion to DHS for immigration enforcement and detention expansion.

In FY 2021, GEO Group and CoreCivic each earned roughly $551–552 million from ICE contracts alone. Both companies successfully lobbied the federal government in the 1980s to expand detention.

Actually, Christian fascists get a lot of their inspiration from the Bible. They LOVE the torture and genocide that Jesus plans in the Book of Revelation. They ADORE it when Jesus whips people in the Temple for disagreeing with him. Luke 14:26, Jesus says people should hate their own kids.
