The largest ever recorded leap in the amount of carbon dioxide laden in the world’s atmosphere has just occurred, according to researchers who monitor the relentless accumulation of the primary gas that is heating the planet....

I remember reading about this game heralding a new era where you could “play the news” (a hilarious phrase that has been rattling around in my head for over a decade now). I think I booted it up once and clicked around for fifteen minutes way back when. Anyway it’s associated with a deeply embarrassing memory from college...

I remember playing about half of DA: Origins before it began taking over my life so I had to stop. DA2 apparently sucked. This one got a lot of critical praise when it came out and people seemed to like it at the time but I haven’t heard a peep about it since then. Worth playing? Did it stand the test of time or get washed...

On one hand allowing obviously superior and cheaper Chinese EVs into the states at MSRP would obliterate the automakers which are one of the last bastions of organized labor. On the other hand getting cheap EVs into people’s hands is the outer limit of viable climate change action in this treat demon settler country....

This is not for sketchy reasons, I swear. All the primo spaces in our apartment building’s bike storage room are taken up by rusting rotting flat-tired cobwebbed piece of shit bikes that clearly haven’t been used in years. Half their owners probably moved out of the building and left them there. I have repeatedly asked...

These fuckers have been spreading like wildfire so now Parks Canada has invoked the nuclear option. This is a bit of a test case and I really hope it’s successful and shows that zebra mussels can be stopped given appropriate and possibly even temporary restrictions. Of course to Canadians the natural world has no value beyond...

So @EmmaGoldman had a nice comment here in a previous thread explaining the dynamic of Jewish people’s attitude toward Israel....

Almost 80% of the respondents, all from the authoritative Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), foresee at least 2.5C of global heating above preindustrial levels, while almost half anticipate at least 3C (5.4F). Only 6% thought the internationally agreed 1.5C (2.7F) limit will be met....

It isn’t all grey marching frowning guys and beating up ethnic minorities and suppressing art. People who show you personally great kindness, who make jokes, who enjoy music and good food - they find fascism compatible. Just endless numbers of seemingly nice things can happily coexist with and violently defend fascism. The...

uhhhhh showing the world that we are fully 100% on the same side as a christian fascist is a bit too political, sweety

I was sitting at my computer by the window (email job) and a carpenter bee came up to the window and hovered there for several seconds. What was it looking at? There are no flowers around here. CIA?...

Yet another reason to never touch that piece of shit language ever again:...

In the USA. Up until a few years ago dental visits were nothing to really think about. I went twice a year and got a cleaning. There was one bad place I went to a decade ago that kept “finding” small cavities to “proactively” fill but thankfully I switched to another and all is well. My home care routine is perfect. I...

Honestly in awe of their courage. Subjecting yourself to the carceral system in the south as a trans person is just unbelievably brave....

A tamagotchi-like device for harvesting codes transmitted over radio, seems like a fun toy

Go on Tucker Carlsen, come out as a republican...
