Anyway China is absolutely kicking our ass. It has made a clear-eyed strategic decision to pursue a clean economy & is investing accordingly. We're flailing around like drunken dipshits, suppressing our domestic renewables, shoveling subsidies at coal, & killing random Venezuelan fishermen.

No Wonder Boys on the list? Lebowski at 72? Lost in America at 33?

Have to disagree about Killers of the Flower Moon. The entire time I was reading it, I was wishing Laura Hillenbrand had written it. Then it would have been a page-turner.

Empire of the Summer Moon by S. C. Gwynne, about the Comanches, and Big Burn, by Timothy Egan, about the largest forest fire in U.S. history, a 1910 fire in the Pacific NW.

❌ No automatic protections for newly listed animal and plant species.
❌ Narrower “critical habitat” definition, ignoring historic areas vital for recovery.
❌ Easier approval for agencies to fast-track harmful projects like logging or drilling.
❌ Allowing economic interests to outweigh science.

This "deal" is a sell-out. Didn't you hear what voters said last Tuesday? If you want to kill Dem base enthusiasm, you could not have done a better job.
