We need to be talking much more about methane.
“Human activities that emit methane, the main component of natural gas, account for about 0.5◦C of global mean surface temperature rise compared to about 0.8◦C from all anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions since the Industrial Revolution.”

Methane pollution from US oil and gas infrastructure causes more climate change than the entire economies of all but seven nations on earth.
(This is with methane's climate impacts conservatively evaluated over a 100-year time frame. Evaluated over shorter time frames, methane's impacts are worse.)

The most trouble I've ever been in professionally was when I complained to the department about a tenured professor's absolutely dogshit behavior, learned a really valuable lesson that day
I was extremely naive in my twenties and early thirties, took people very much at their word when it came to values, and absolutely destroyed my mental health (and my career) thinking I could publicly demand accountability and survive it whole.

the Epstein files make it very clear why the MeToo backlash was so extreme and why so much of elite society preferred Donald Trump ruling us like a king to the barest hint of accountability

"you wanted a pony" is the guilt talking. the knowledge that you didn't push the party to do the right thing out of triangulation and cowardice. you tried to play a very dangerous game of enticing the enemy at the expense of alienating your allies and you're lashing out the people who warned you.

you can't lecture the world when you have absolutely no insight into human behavior. people to the left of you AND to the right of you have sincere ideological commitments. it means you can't get the ones on the right to vote for dems and you can't get the left to eat shit to coddle your tactics.

the expectation that the people whose rights you consider negotiable should still vote for you because you don't want to immiserate them quite as much is contemptible. it makes you wholly untrustworthy because you're clearly willing to hurt them more than your opening position. fuck you.

This is Noam Chomsky talking about Cambodian refugees accurately describing the horrors of the Khmer Rouge that they’d escaped from.
This line in particular is why I’ve hated Chomsky for so long.
