The end of BSG killed my interest in long-format TV shows.

Since that's being observed in patients born without a corpus callosum, I would guess their brains learned to compensate using subcortical pathways.

Yes, I agree.

It's very depressing. A perfect storm of the tragedy of the commons and hyperbolic discounting, on the largest of scales.

It's pretty weird. Although I really only see it on the internet and it seems to be more common in the US. There are perfectly valid reasons why the US doesn't want to cut CO2 emissions, but it's a lot easier to subtly encourage the spread of misinformation to the general public than explain that reasoning.

I mean, the credibility of random people on the internet cannot be verified, so if it's anything more complicated than "what's a fermion?" it's best to point people who are disputing the data but genuinely interested to reliable sources. Certainly I'd rather go and read the original data,…

Oh, absolutely. It's just very bad information, that's all. Unfortunately there's a lot of that around - and not just in climate science, of course!

"That should have read a single volcanic eruption releases more greenhouse gasses in to the atmosphere in one day than the burning of fossil fuels has produced in the last 10 years."
