Why is he explaining anything. I think his team want him to lose our they are terrible at their job. Find someone in the administration, or more than one, who can talk and engage with current concerns and at least act like they’ve been listening to people outside the White House, and get them on tv and maybe we can get excited to vote for the administration if not the candidate. Pull in all of the big tent voices and dnc stand behind them as the many possible futures of the party you are voting for and could continue to haggle over in contrast to the one orange king party. Biden can stand on stage waving goodbye for 4 years, idc. The difference is, when Trump gets that bad, these other voices won’t be there anymore and he won’t be saying goodbye.

To me it’s not end of the story that’s the point of this, but the idea that when you are more social and engaged with different ideas your mind is more creative and energized and flexible. And there are other times, especially as you age, where you are more isolated and your mind slows and gets trained into rote thoughts. They may or may not be the same ones you started with, and they may be well earned and refined thoughts from a lifetime of experience, but stripped of the complex context they arose in, they are still just a simplistic starting point for the next round.

So refreshing to see a mainstream story that gives a little space to the protesters’ message. These people are getting records to have 10 seconds of your consideration.

I don’t know how these things usually work as there was no indication in any of the articles how the successfully media handled it. It seems crazy there would be such a knowledge gap.

Feels pretty obvious that seating would be limited and coveted, and there was contact information in the announcement for “more details”. If I had no idea how to get an invite, I’d have written that email May 15th. But maybe there’s more to the story than either side wants to tell.

Oh. I don’t know anything about this. Is it weird for an app to be pulled from all of these sites? Do they have a way for the original developer to take it down if they want or some kind of flagging? Does your new phone have a higher Android build, maybe the site checks somehow to match with the right version and then fails? Wild guesses

But the fact that so many stores have dropped it recently, though it’s clear they once had it, may mean something, idk.

This article explains it better. First of all there are plenty of black owned media companies, more than one in Atlanta who were denied credentials:

The NNPA represents the 197-year-old Black Press of America, which counts among its more than 230 newspapers and media companies, The Atlanta Voice, Atlanta Daily World, and the Atlanta Inquirer. The popular Rolling Out magazine also counts among the Black Press’ members frozen out by CNN.

However, they were apparently all denied based on the Jun 7 deadline.

CNN implies the deadline was stated in their announcement of the debate on May 15th but the only deadline mentioned is for polls determining which candidates could participate.

President Biden and CBC and Rep. Meeks lobbied CNN for Black media inclusion after the denial.

This is a great article describing the multipronged, multiagency, do science, make laws, buy land, empower stewards approach necessary to save species in the face of increasingly fast-paced changes to natural spaces. A small sign of hope, but just think how many people are involved and fighting for love of life on this planet.

Omg, this is amazing. Ok hear me out, you think bribes are expensive, but at local or even state levels they can be very reasonable, so here’s what we do is GoFundMe for legislators, where regular people bid money into escrow for a certain rep’s vote and if they do it, they get the cash. Of course people of wrong opinion can also bid so it’s not guaranteed to get you what you want, but you can collectively at least make it more expensive for them! Normal bribery requires all kinds of relationship development and professional lobbyists to make sure it’s works right, so it’s available only to the well funded few. Post-vote bribery is open to all and cuts the smarmy middlemen.

I know you’re appalled, but consider how out of touch most reps are from their constituents. They are told all day long by these lobbyists that you don’t really hate genocide or that you really count on them to keep drilling for oil. Here you can tell your real values to their face with money, the same arbiter of truth those billionaires are using. Not for a campaign, but for a specific vote!

Yah, it’s a weird statement because part of the problem with golf is their willingness to pour energy, water, fertilizer, poison, etc, into an unsuspecting environment to enable their sport, so it’s an example of how the rich think they will buy their way out of climate crisis. Needed a stronger statement.

There was no sympathy whatsoever on display among the players or media, so they are not the audience anyway. The audience is us and the statement is be disruptive because you don’t need friends like these.

Not saying you’re wrong, but just to add, [this article] (https://www.opb.org/article/2022/11/18/demolition-plan-of-four-klamath-river-dams-moves-forward/) gives a good account of the issues with several dams along one river. The electric company saves money by demolishing compared to building required fish ladders. They were already expecting less and less power from the dams due to low water levels, which may be drought or competition with irrigation. The dams only accounted for 2% of the electricity they sold, so I’m not sure how big the replacement project will be, if any.

One thing to note is that activism like this does normally happen in “spurts”. The legislative cycle is very long and most projects that eventually achieve government backing also require a lot, even matching, private money. Backers may go through several rounds of hype before catching the attention of a big local family or other donor that makes the whole thing plausible enough for the government to act on.

Nearly half who were removed [during post-covid eligibility audits] were able to reenroll, the survey showed, suggesting they should not have been dropped in the first place.

These are people who have no funds and no recourse. If it takes months to re enroll, that’s months without healthcare, including residential facilities and home health services Sometimes food and shelter programs are also tied to Medicaid eligibility.

I just thought at the last second it was disrespectful to people with seizures. The s probably doesn’t help with that anyway though

This is ludicrous. The Republicans have nothing to worry about. It does not matter to their voters at all. He could start shouting “kill, kill, kill” until he has a seizure and craps himself on stage, voters: “just like Jesus”

Extinction Rebellion claimed responsibility.

“Golf, more than other events, is heavily reliant on good weather. Golf fans should therefore understand better than most the need for strong, immediate climate action.”

There’s a lot worse things they could say about golf in my opinion.

Amazing article, thank you. Sets out clearly how we got here and what is at stake.

I would love to see this become more common as a sport because the mechanics are just so different and so the strategies will be more diverse-- fun to be at the early stage of learning. The article suggests quadrupedal racers have not even been using the most efficient gait and many other optimizations may yet be realized, so I think their prediction is likely, but not really the point to me.

I agree. If the choice is between phone polls and ai from Reddit, the ai at least might surface something they didn’t already think of. What they do with the information is still up to the party/candidates and still likely to be fuck-all since they didn’t really want your opinion anyway.

So is original phishing supposed to be over the phone? Like it’s the email game called emishing or something?

I’m pretty sure most creatures in nature die before they are adults.
