This a big deal: "China’s carbon dioxide emissions have been flat or falling for 18 months"
China's economy has grown by ~5% in the last year, so this comprehensively debunks the idea (again) that emissions are tied to growth. So yes, faster progress needed, but this is how you turn the corner.

Went to a local horticultural society talk about how to use peat-free compost, and won a prize in the raffle. :>

if your "protest movement" uses genai imagery, all you're telling me is you don't care if artists starve. it doesn't exactly inspire solidarity. make some graphics in mspaint. if it's ugly, well, at least you made it with your own human brain rather than asking lines of code to shit it out for you.

50 years ago today, Nov. 10, 1975, the Edmund Fitzgerald sank beneath the waves of Lake Superior during a massive storm.
The sinking took the lives of all 29 men on the ship, and became immortalized in Gordon Lightfoot's song.
This is the story of this terrible tragedy.

Okay, Ezra is confirming that he's hearing D senators are actually plotting to cave to Trump and end the shutdown WITHOUT any extension of the ACA, just a promise of a vote later down the line.
Call your senators, friends, NOW, and tell them NO DEAL without ACA funding!

This poses a substantial risk of secondary casualties and property damage for high net worth individuals, especially if the loot doesn't drop as large-denomination bills.

At least one character has to make at least one bad decision for a horror narrative to happen.
And a lot of bad decisions are only obviously bad if you know it's a horror narrative.

Food and fitness ramblings!
I'm aiming to get back on the workout train this week after a month off for International Rhino Adventures.
I'm also working to frontload the decisionmaking by coming up with a roster of set meals, which should also help with budgeting both macros and money.

Everybody should just pirate everything. Download all the ROMs you can, play old games that Nintendo wants to charge you $60 for the privilege of playing again, anybody who has a problem with this has incurable cop-brain and you shouldn't listen to anything they say
tbh as much as official rereleases are good for accessibility, I also feel like a lot of people just won't play games if they don't have official versions and that's not great for culture. Everyone should be downloading random ROMs until they find that special one that breaks their brain wide open.
