All of that whataboutism doesn't stop nuclear from being a ridiculously expensive form of power generation.
UAP business aside, I’m glad congress is asking questions. We shouldn’t be paying taxes and then have our money just disappear into a black hole with zero accountability and oversight.
If that happened I’d expect to see Biden go all in on packing the court. The gloves would be well and truly off at that point.
Nuclear takes too long to build out and costs way more than renewables + storage. Why advocate for wasting money?
The court is no longer fit for purpose. Where we go now is anyone’s guess.
It's a false premise. What happened is that the internet allowed all the village idiots, who were previously contained and ridiculed in their own villages, to connect with each other and become more confident in their idiocy. The internet is a support group for morons.
I put it off because there’s no narration in TraumaZone, just captions but it works so well.
If it’s replacing coal and gas, it’s a big benefit.
I”ve watched all Curtis’ stuff apart from TraumaZone and I couldn’t agree more. I watched the first episode of that one a couple of night ago, I’m still processing.
I concur. You’re blocked.
Some good advice here. I’d add that you should figure out what your range is, don’t torture yourself trying to hit notes outside of it.
What did you make of the epic CGI fest final act? *
- I have not seen the movie, I'm just assuming it's the same as all the other ones.
TIL polio contracted Mitch McConnell.
It's not a direct attack on NATO though. If Russia launched a missile at the UK then it would be on like donkey kong.
NATO is a defensive pact, you fuck with one of us, you fuck with all of us. Ukraine isn't a member but I support it's application to join.
Hot sauce, something sweet with mango or pineapple and hot enough to get a sweat on.
Adam Curtis' documentaries like HyperNormalisation, Bitter Lake, and the series Can't Get You Out of My Head were a big one for me. He has full access to the BBC's news archive and cuts all this really obscure footage together really creatively. His music cues are great too.

Thanks! I looked it up:
"Prince Alwaleed bin Talal agreed to roll over $1.9 billion worth of Twitter shares through his Kingdom Holding Company to Musk’s new private company, making him the second largest investor in Twitter. Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund, chaired by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, owns nearly 17% of Kingdom Holding, according to Reuters.
Meanwhile, Qatar contributed $375 million for the financing of Musk’s Twitter purchase."
I wonder if they're happy with how their investment is going?
Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't the Saudis finance the deal to buy Twitter? Given the platform was used extensively by protesters during the Arab Spring, would it be worth it to them to pay for Musk to destroy it?
That's a pretty big mischaracterization of the movie.
