Matt is making himself less and less relevant to me.
What a ding-dong, just an embarrassment at this point.

Yglesias wants to take us backwards to the stale coal vs. natural gas fights of the 2000s that anchor the climate debate in fossil fuels. The debate must move forwards, beyond fossil fuels that corrupt our politics, drive inflation, harm public health, & foul our climate, air & water, public lands.
Screenshot of Yglesias post reading: "Claim here from a green NGO guy is that I am a “corporate shill” for believing that gas is cleaner than coal. Does that make him a corporate shill for coal for arguing that I’m wrong? This is a childish way to argue. We simply disagree. Who is right?" that quote posts Aaron Regunberg post reading: "Matt Yglesias is a corporate shill. This is well attested. But he really took his hackery to the next level in this essay for the Times. "Essay" is actually a very generous word to describe this blatant regurgitation of oil and gas industry talking points, which relies for its citations on sources like Energy In Depth, the Big Oil front group that the Times' own reporting has described as being directed by ExxonMobil. Essentially every line in this piece is wrong. And not like "I disagree with that opinion" wrong—like empirically, demonstrably false, as you'd expect from the talking points of an industry that has spent decades lying about these issues. Yglesias claims that natural gas "is much cleaner than coal"—it isn't, according to the Times, which reported that gas "can be just as harmful to the climate" unless the industry can "all but eliminate the leaks that plague its use.""

Done with Saturday chores
The family is out getting school supplies
I'm exhausted, ready to sit on the couch and soak up some soccer.

No games until 6.30 CDT!?
JFC, can you please get your scheduling right!?!
I'd watch just about ANYTHING right now and you are offering NOTHING!?!

Congrats, Canadian friends!

Now watching parliament majority closely.
Canada votes for Mark Carney as prime minister
Mark Carney wins Canada's election, capitalizing on anti-Trump sentiment. But it's still not clear if his Liberal Party has won an outright majority in parliament.

The stock portfolios of more than two dozen members of Congress outperformed the market in 2024.

This isn't due to luck or skill.

Lawmakers can use privileged information to trade stocks while they’re supposed to be working for you.

Make no mistake, it’s legalized corruption.

what the literal actual FUCK is wrong with these people?!? The firing was ILLEGAL. You do NOT put out a press release saying "welp" and update your resume. You say that the felon president does not have authority to do this so I will keep fucking his shit up until the goons come to haul me away

This is amusing.

According to Google:

Yes, "x" is often used as shorthand for "trans" in certain contexts, particularly when abbreviating words like "transmit" (xmit) or "transfer" (xfer).

Elon made twitter trans.
