You can sugar coat this any way you want but the fact of the matter is, they cut energy production in lieu of renewables without actually having enough renewables up and running to offset the difference. And now they are in the predicament

Quit reading at “large stage capitalism”. Such a bs term. This is not capitalism, this is techno corporate fascism. That is what is failing and causing misery. And the more we gaslight capitalism, the further down the totalitarian path w

True but that was “just” a bad recession, but we never actually recovered from it. Now we are the brink of global war, reeling from Covid supply chain issues, and stagflation all on top of a world economy that has been propped up by central

Wouldn’t a reasonable hypothesis try to rule out the vaccine? I’m not anti vaccine, I received the vaccine. But if excess death is creeping and it’s not Covid, would t that be one of the first things to rule out? They don’t even indicate

Not defending the idea itself but I just don’t see how climate change is relevant here. If the rest of Florida is also underwater, what does it matter how protected the island is? They would be in the “same boat” as other Floridians and t

Thank you for putting this to words. It is not art unless it is open for criticism. That’s kind of the whole point. An artist is vulnerable->releases new work into the world->it passes through the filter of criticism->work is de

How does the “I don’t like it, therefore it’s crap” differ from “I like it, therefore it’s amazing”. They are both opinions. You may think that the critical opinion is “rude”, but conversely, I may think the glowing opinion is ignorant or

Could it also be due to the fact that they have an aging population crisis and young people uninterested in dating? What better way to get young people to procreate then to get them drunk?

This is just based on pure nutritional content of underlying ingredients. For example, a fruit and vegetable smoothie scored 98 out of 100, with 100 being the healthiest. But I don’t see that they accounted for how your body interprets a

World war 3? No probably not in the traditional sense of war like world war 2. But could this be the ground work for a devastating nuclear war? Absolutely.

There is nothing inherently wrong with landlords and rent. Anyone that says otherwise is a tankie. Landlords provide a valuable service. But there cannot be perpetual growth in rents like there is in say the growth of a startup. It’s the

Yes. But I think that it’s just part of a larger unethical system: the financial system(and it’s incestuous relationship with government). I am pro capitalism, but this is not capitalism. This is corporatism. The whole system is based on

Because if we do have the capability to create lots of cheap energy, it could have been applied to various other sectors and improved the quality of life for billions of people. Instead of constraining us to the whims of oil barons.

Ok so let’s just say that the author is correct, and this thing, among other sightings, are actually US secret projects. I can believe that, but I would be much angrier if the government has been covering up some sort of wild capabilities

I wonder if this can be remediated by covering the chickens run in a deep layer of mulch and shredded leaves, letting that compost over time as the chickens poop and scratch in it. Over time the layer of contaminated soil could be buried de

Ignorance is bliss is more than just a cliche. The converse is that intelligence is anxiety. Or at least that’s my hypothesis. The more you know, the more you are aware of what can go wrong.

As someone that intermittently fasts everyday, I don’t think weight loss has anything to do with the actual fasting, I think it just helps you control when you eat and helps you meet a caloric deficit. I do enjoy the clarity of mind that I
