If her understanding of climate science is as shallow as her understanding of economics, I’m inclined to believe the opposite of whatever she says.

Other people have talked about the “failure of climate models” and I don’t see anything in this video that is wrong. The TLDR is that we were assuming that modern climate models are incorrect because it did not seem to match the climate sensitivity we had recorded in the past. But it turns out that our recording of climate sensitivity in the past was incorrect, and all those scary models that everyone told us to ignore this year are probably accurate.

5 degrees, let’s goooooo

Well I have good news for you, no matter who wins the election in 2024, at least 30% of the country will believe its illegitimate. More if we get some electoral college shenanigans.

too late

An important thing to note: This is your well reasoned decision, when you are not facing the imminent prospect of death.

When you’re sitting in that chair, strapped down, the eyes of everyone in the gallery staring at you with hate (or even worse, bored disinterest), the guards busily preparing your murder around you, refusing eye contact, knowing that in a few minutes they’ll be carrying your cadaver to some unmarked grave, your heart racing, pounding in your ears, the murmur of medical devices, the beep beep beep of a heart monitor you know will soon be silent.

Under these stressful conditions you might not be consciously able to breathe deeply, the lizard brain may take over to extend what little time it has on this Earth.

Critical support to our doctors and nurses, who realize that “do no harm” includes participating in state sanctioned murder.

It is also, ironically, because of a failure in the market.

A lot of drug manufacturers are reluctant to have “used by the Statesville Department of Corrections to execute people” on the Wikipedia page for the drug they are trying to to sell. Having your drug used to put people to death makes it harder to sell to people that want to stay alive. So even though there is an open market for these chemicals, it is harder and harder to convince manufacturers to supply that market. Even where it’s not explicitly prohibited like companies operating out of the European Union.

Also, the whole killing people thing kind of antithetical to most medical codes of ethics. Even outside of bad publicity, there are moral considerations, most doctors do not want to put their name to an execution method, it kind of goes against the whole “do no harm” thing. This is why they normally have some random first-year nursing student set the IV. And also why so many executions have failed in spectacular fashion because they couldn’t find a vein, or the IV pops out or whatever.

That’s a lot of broccoli, I feel bad for whoever is sharing a bunker with you.

Third commercial is “did you drink so much sugar water that your pancreas told you to go fuck yourself and stopped working? Are you really really fat? Ask your doctor about Ozempic today!”

Fake ass-protests

I strongly disagree.

Butcher Biden is a much better use of alliteration.

In this case it is gonna be like 7am on the east coast.

Yeah, I would probably stay home if that were the case for me.

Every time I see this picture, his song worms its way into my brain.

I’m not trying to vote shame, feel free to leave the presidential ballot empty.

But you should definitely look at local elections, referendums, and state constitutional amendments. Things on the ballot at that level, can make a very powerful difference in the daily lives of people in your community.

Fuck genocide Joe, I don’t blame you for not wanting to vote for him, but don’t throw the baby out with a bath water.

Minor quibble, but I don’t think Ukraine has shown that air superiority is not important. I think it’s shown that air superiority is easier and more cost-effective when achieved with surface-to-air missile systems like the s400. Overall, air superiority fighters are still an important part of the Air Force, but they are not The only way to deny your enemy access to the airspace.

Russia is still regularly flying MiG 31s with beyond visual range air-to-air missiles, they are still maintaining combat air patrols, they still have AWACs and other sensor platforms in the air. The only reason Ukraine is able to maintain awareness of the battlefield, is NATO AWACs and airborne sensors feed intelligence to them, and Russia has not wanted to escalate the war by attacking them directly.

But the main reason that Ukraine is having trouble, is NATO’s combat doctrine always assumes that their first step is maintaining air superiority. It’s hard to do that when an s400 can shoot your plane down from 100 miles away, airborne radar is searching for you, MiG 31s are just waiting to make themselves useful by intercepting you at Mach 2.5 to blow you out of the sky, and every inch of the front has instant communication lines to regional HQ.

Hezbollah took out a Patriot site with laser-guided artillery ammunition, China has GPS guided railgun ammunition.

Before the US gave up on a similar concept, it was going to cost at least $800,000 per shell.

I don’t know if this is fair.

He had to know anytime he was scheduled to fly a plane there was a good chance that it would end up on the ground in pieces.

Odo is legit a fascist.

He is a collaborator who worked directly for the security services of the oppressive fascist state occupying Bajor.

The fact that Kira did not shoot him out of an airlock the first chance she got has always bugged me.

Anthropomorphic climate change would look something like this.
