Taxing commercial flight to reflect its true environmental costs presents genuine policy & economic tradeoffs, but taxing private air travel does not, and the latter should be taxed at ludicrously punitive rates to address the deficit created by the former.
Impact of flights on global warming severely underestimated by many carbon calculators & offset schemes that don’t properly account for taxiing, sub-optimal routing or non-CO2 climate effects which are larger component:

Your flight emissions are way higher than carbon calculators suggest
Existing tools that work out the carbon footprint of flights greatly underestimate their warming impact, say the makers of a new calculator

This morning, I was hit in the face by a baton.

I’m going to have a pretty gnarly bruise but we need to remember why this is happening: Trump and ICE are rounding up our neighbors, treating them as subhuman, and shipping them off to labor camps in foreign countries. It has to end.

we need to move on from breakfast/lunch/dinner as meals. From now on it’s either wet meal or dry meal. Wet meal can have dry meal elements (soup with bruschetta) and vice versa (steak and egg) but instead of asking yourself what to have for lunch ask yourself ‘am i fangin for wet or dry?’

Incredible.

Jack Posobiec references the earliest version of antifa -- the anti-fascists in the Weimar Republic who were opposed to the Nazi Party -- as the bad guys.

We don’t call everyone who disagrees with us a Nazi, JD, just the ones doing Nazi shit like:

-masked secret police kidnapping people off the street
-creating concentration camps
-attempting to eradicate trans people
-banning/burning LGBTQ/opposing viewpoint books
-murdering fishermen in open waters
Vance: "If you want stop political violence, stop telling your supporters that everybody who disagrees with you is a Nazi."

I like this. Since under RFK Jr, Covid shots are now for people with underlying conditions that put them at risk, Michigan’s chief medical executive Dr. Natasha Bagdasarian states that not having the most recent Covid shot constitutes such an underlying condition.

*David Attenborough voice* This once-thriving reply thread has been laid bare by an invasive species of libscold. But lurking in the shadows is a remarkable creature; a perfect predator that continuously adapts to stay one step ahead, ensuring that prey walk right into their trap; again, and again.

Hey everyone, it’s that time again!

Campaigns need contributors, and so many awesome people have already contributed to mine - in the first two weeks we’ve raised almost $50k!

Our goal is $100k in the first month to really show people demand legislators who will fight back. Can you help?

This “explicit” is a weird editorial choice. The constitution gives the president no power over this at all. It’s not ambiguous.
