Rather than working "to stabilize the climate" at 1.5 degrees Celsius of warming, "we are actually going to a trajectory to have an increase in temperature of 2.8 Celsius,” says Susana Muhamad, former Colombian environment minister, speaking from the #COP30 conference.

the actual reason for this is so that robots can be easily plugged into human roles. the more human-like a robot is, the more readily it can replace a human.
one of the things I really do not understand is why so much of the development of robots seems to be focused on making them bipedal like humans. Why? It's an insane allocation of resources when it would be much easier to give them three or four "legs" or come up with some new system

the actual story here, which the media never talks about, is that police in this country have become a discrete right-wing political operation. the story isn't about cops leaving (they're lying about that), it's about the police trying to exert influence over elections.

Israel has killed 28 Palestinian children in Gaza every day on average.
This daily massacre is being executed with US weapons, just as the deliberate starvation of Gaza is being carried out with US facilitation and protection.

Speaking for myself, I’ve never had a crisis of faith because I suddenly realized "Wow, I don't believe any of this." It’s always come from looking around at other Christians — the ones I was supposed to look up to, guys like Mike Johnson — and realizing "Wow, *they* don’t believe any of this."

this is a good illustration of what “compromise” on trans rights looks like. there’s no “everyone gets rights but we take it easy on the pronouns.” if you head down that road you will end up denying that trans people are real.
Rahm Emanuel criticized Dems for talking about "pronouns," but Megyn Kelly is the first interviewer I've seen drill down for his views.
Boys + girls are "fundamentally, physically different." No "men claiming they're women" in women's prisons.
"Can a man become a woman? No."

There's no coming back from this. The majority of voters in the western countries that are arming Israel do not support this.
So that means it's political leaders ignoring the will of their voters to fund a mass extermination.
This is their legacy forever unless they stop it

i've never been particularly interested in epstein stuff, but if it turns out that the missing footage involves people entering or leaving the area of the cell it would probably be the biggest scandal in american political history.
NEW: Metadata from the “raw” Epstein prison video shows approximately 2 minutes and 53 seconds were removed from one of two stitched-together clips. The cut starts right at the “missing minute.”

56,000 Palestinians dead since the bombing began but Iran is the dangerous country in the region and that's the word coming from a "progressive." gtfo
CNN’s Van Jones urges “progressives” to “get on board” with bombing Iran:
“I think progressives underestimate how dangerous Iran is. Iran is not a normal country,” he said on air.
Jones did not share whether he considers Israel—an apartheid state currently committing genocide—a “normal country.”

"i love world war iii i just wish you'd signed this piece of paper before you did it" sums up the democratic party about as well as anything could
A final note of clarification. I am open to the idea that the US should attack Iran. But I am not open to the idea that Congress cedes all authority to the executive branch. No matter how many lickspittle sycophants in the GOP argue to the contrary.

Yes, he's polling poorly, but he still has the power to do what he wants. If we want to stop him, we must *build the power* to do that. Sadly, we cannot disapprove our way out of fascism.
