Absolutely no interest in being followed or following fundamentalists, or people who wish to extend their rights at the expense of others or the planet.

With less than a third into the year, it was overshoot day for Aotearoa yesterday - the day when Earth's resources and services would have been used up if the whole world consumed as much

A seismic joint can save lives during an earthquake. Watch how it absorbed the impact in Izmir's recent 6.7 quake. Engineering that makes a difference.

Very cool example of atmospheric physics in motion -- save this for your students!

Just north of the equator is Cyclone Sinlaku rotating counter clockwise.

And just south of the equator is Maila, rotating clockwise.

Coriolis effect!

Usually economic shocks are called things like pandemics or oil embargoes. This version is more: bloke walks into the policy room, sees a rake, and steps on it repeatedly.

Remember when we used to have experienced seasoned diplomats with decades of knowledge and experience in a specific region involved in sensitive and complex negotiations with other countries over important details? Seems like a better plan than Vance, Witkoff and Kushner.

Oof. We ok with this? Because we do have a choice. Govt balance sheet could absorb the short-term blow to avoid the scarring from those 130,000 humans losing their jobs & the inflation that will amplify the damage. Instead, the Govt says the pain of marginally higher interest rates is worse.

Deforestation is not “development.”
It is ecocide, turning mighty carbon sinks into carbon bombs,wiping out gorillas,elephants,& thousands of irreplaceable species,while triggering droughts that devastate farmers the hardest.
Real progress protects forests,not destroys them.

History will judge the high point of JD Vance's life as the time he unintentionally sank Hungary's would be dictator Viktor Orban. The only good he ever did.

Effective 2025 federal tax rates paid by these corporations:

Alphabet: 8.01%
AT&T: 4.6%
Meta: 3.57%
General Motors: 3.09%
Amazon: 1.37%
Exxon Mobil: 1.31%
Disney: -1.57%
CVS Health: -3.88%

Income tax rate paid by the typical American: 14.5%

This is what a rigged system looks like.

There's a sect of right wing Americans who don't object to the purpose of the war: but absolutely loathe being humiliated & defeated by how poorly its gone.

They have no moral qualms. But every Lego video that challenges their superiority kills their ego & makes them hate this war.

So let's share!

Oh.

Holy hell please let this be the reason Melania ran to the press: the guy who imported her, Einstein visa and all, used ICE to deport the mother of his child.

Zampolli was in Hungary w/JD.

Using your debt, your search history, and your private data to decide how much you’re worth? Hell no.
This is what happens when technology is built to serve profit instead of people.
This is why every worker needs a union.

Trump just posted a long screed against Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones with the worst insult he can imagine: They were all kicked off TV.

“Now they think they get some ‘clicks’ because they have Third Rate Podcasts, but nobody's talking about them…”
