Yang is a wank. However Geo-engeneering is not a bad idea and would be far more actionable than crying. I dunno about the merits of mirrors but I read an article a while ago stating that a colony of windmill powered water pumps could resheet the caps at a cost of about 10 billion a year. It doesn’t fix the warming…

There’s a reason your average sportswriter becomes a bitter, cynical asshole, and not in the fun, Ratto-esque way

talk like that is gonna get you kicked out of the tribe, regi.

It’s only fitting that the Thunder are the NBA version of the Mariners.

I know the snark is strong with this one but from the original investigative article:

Or there could even be a repeat of the Celtics situation, where Kyrie gets hurt and is out for the last part of the regular season and playoffs and the Nets go on an amazing run without him, playing good, fun basketball and getting everybody excited for the following season after they bow out after a hard-fought EC…

There will come a day that the tech to reach into the past and completely ressurect something that had lived in that period will become viable and feasible.

He needs to shoot Pence in the back THEN have a stroke, discovered a day later by his incompetent children and then to be stuck in a self-aware coma until he reaches the ripe old age of 110 with the TV stuck on a news channel that constantly avoids mentioning him what-so-ever but…

Barring a global war... the numbers for exponential growth in STEM thanks to compute and communications round off to about 2045 +/- 15 years for cracking through to AGI and Drexler Assembler nanotechnology. That’s given general brute force applications of scientific discoveries and material sciences building on one…

I’m at a point in my life where I’d rather spend my time watching a movie or series that I haven’t seen before instead of rewatching something multiple times. I’ll watch The Office if I catch it on TV but if I’m streaming I’m usually going with something new.

It’s almost like you could create a blog with endless articles that have catchy titles like “This Is How You’re Being Manipulated” and a tempting comment section where you’re hoping for stars... I bet something like that could be manipulatively addictive as well!

surprised not to see Better Oblivion Community Center anywhere here, as far as the wave of indie folk stuff with which Phoebe Bridgers is either largely or tangentially involved (yes that’s basically a genre unto itself at this point) I think it’s the clear best. “Dylan Thomas” and “Service Road” get spins every other…
