They're already doing the "we're just stealing their oil" thing again.

As insane as reality commonly is, for some it can never be enough.

Edward (a "political scientist") proves yet again that politics is not & will never be a science. Political science is an oxymoron studied by people who couldn't make the cut in any of the real sciences.

The entire world outside of the Bluesky/Reddit left agrees that the New York Times is a staunchly leftist news source.

The Bluesky/Reddit left? They are entirely convinced that NYT is hateful propaganda actively harming transgender identified people & Palestine.

Have no fear, donations from Gavin Newsom's billionaire friends have already flowed in & he is currently engaged in a national campaign against taxation of the wealthy.

There is a price for everything in California politics.

"One mountain lion was located at the scene but it ran away when officers shot it. It was tracked by the officers and euthanized...

A second mountain lion was found nearby shortly after and also euthanized... If the lions don't prove to have evidence of human DNA, a search will continue."

In spite of the luddite's recent attempts to retroactively rewrite history, people have been "falling in love with" computer programs & tech for decades.

There is a correlation between us choosing to anthropomorphize a computer program & the hysteria surrounding purported "mind control"/etc.

The left wants to build tremendously massive lithium battery facilities to store energy from solar panels - but they would like it to be sourced from the lithium fairy or the lithium tree instead of having to mine it (eek!).

But but, think about the desert tree warbler!!

Fewer Americans applied for unemployment benefits last week with layoffs remaining low despite a weakening labor market. https://to.pbs.org/3NoSeRx
U.S. applications for unemployment benefits fell below 200,000 last week with layoffs historically low
Unemployment benefit filings are often distorted during holiday-shortened weeks since the shorter week can cause some who have lost jobs to delay filing claims.

Even more footage of the IRGC openly shooting at protestors in Iran is coming out today.

Will the world speak out against this injustice or continue silently enabling the Iranian Regime?

By the way, Gavin Newsom is apparently raising money to fight AGAINST the billionaire tax. So thoughtful of him to come to their aid at this particular time in history,

The people addicted to plastic surgery are now transposing their own thoughts into others minds.

Let's see now, *actually* lopping off the genitals & permanently sterilizing gay & lesbian children - OKAY! 👍

But no let's focus on... Theoretical lobotomy straw man argument. GRRR! 😤😡
Perhaps she is thinking of a little neurosurgical intervention. Nothing as radical as a lobotomy, possibly an implant from Tesla.
On the other hand the "problem" could perhaps be cured with a little surgery for the GCs.
Of course there is also the option that they just shut tf up & let people be.

"Cheap solar" is also transforming garbage dumps all across 🌍, as well as transforming the water supply due to the inevitable toxic chemical runoff. Like mercury.

Billions of panels are added to garbage dump piles *every year*. The cost to recycle is far greater than their value, so it isn't done.

You liking a solution has no bearing on whether it is the correct solution or not.

Taking social media & smartphones away from children may remove the easy button from parenting, & that may not go over well, but it's the only correct solution to fixing certain widespread, developing societal issues
