OK, so you don’t think you’re entitled to a payout, you didn’t enter the class action, and so your problem is...?

Boy, bring up gun deaths and all of sudden everybody turns into Durkheim with an obsession over suicide.

Regardless of the current context, this is one of those delightful little stories about the weird salad days of the tech bubble, and just how utterly disastrous Fiorina’s tenure was.

There is indeed a very good reason to worry about population-control enthusiasts like Ehrlich (beyond that their dire predictions are time and again wrong). First and foremost is that environmental degradation is not a function of population (consider that the US is 4% of the world’s pop but uses 25% of energy…

Politics and technics are surely related, but I’d also be wary of a notion that governance is a matter of technique; that’s an apolitical politics. That is to say, scientific insight, no matter how clear, does not necessarily equate to good public policy. (not that lawyers are key, either, I’m just offering a…

This is because the video is incorrectly preoccupied with being, when a better focus is reason. So if we were asked whether numbers…

What is this far left? Where is it? What does it do?

Quick everybody tell us how much meat you eat. That’s definitely the point of this article; diet disclosure.

Of course! I’m all about responsible pet ownership no matter what species your pet is. TNR, robust humane societies, and widespread information about the ecological problem of outside cats can all help.

This is a really important concern, and I’m glad Giz is covering it. As a probably-Toxo-infected lover of cats, I’m happy to keep her inside, where all pet cats should be. It improves their health, life-expectancy, and increases human snuggles.

Crippling insecurity is not a good look.

Which is to say, we are seeing the limits/breakdown of late capitalism in the film, and now in Europe.

This is a really well done piece. I offer this as a supplement:
