I’m talking about solar, EVs and so on. It’s straight-up cheaper to not use fossil fuels now, for most things, and the remaining ones seem like they’re inevitably coming.

Don’t worry, I’m still pretty doomer about it. The planet’s going to get a bit messed up in the meanwhile, and we’d have just kind of boiled ourselves like a frog, if we hadn’t gotten lucky with cheap renewables suddenly appearing.

The thing is, negotiation is always easier than implementation, which is why it comes before.

It’s pretty clear at this point we’re going to stop climate change right around as fast as technology forces us to. I don’t see any other plausible path.

Sort of? I think this was more of a “see, Americans agree, women are shit”.

True, your policies don’t have to make sense if you win.

That being said, this guy runs a fringe party. They have a whole 3 seats in the Diet’s lower house and none whatsoever in the upper.

It’s the same in Australia. Something about the pacific must make parties switch places.

Pfft, he’s doing an amateur job of intimidating, then. It should have been thumbscrews or something. This way seems self defeating.

Yeah, I’m actually hella curious what the context was here. Why would he want any of that?

Yeah, that’s my read too. Even if they mention it in the report, it’s “Israelis attacked” in the headline from a lot of the big sources.

I mean, there’s a peace symbol in the thumbnail, so I’m not sure if it’s even supposed to be a secret.

I legitimately mixed up the two as well, as a kid.

I really deeply hope the universe is finite for this reason. Every great or terrible thing always happens forever, there is no causality or consequence.

You sure? I searched just to check and Three Dog Night came up.

“1 is the loneliest number” was a line from an old song, I think.

Islam is slightly remixed Judaism. It’s annoying when Christians do this, and it’s annoying if Jews do this, too. Their civilisation was better and more progressive for a long time, even.

I really hope you stick to this line in the future, I guess. If you’re right, everything will be fine. If I’m right and you stay true to it, we’ll be on the same side shortly.

Where the hell do I buy this lettuce, and where does it come from, if not by truck through the US? I in no way can afford stuff that gets flown in.

In the winter? Hmm, I smell lower mainland.

That being said, I have a pretty impressive array of nonperishables recipes going, if anyone needs.

Hopefully the French will save us? They have nukes, and like fucking shit up.

I hope you don’t like produce.

Saudi is moderate on Israel, I guess, but they’re even more brutal than Iran in most other ways. The Middle East is a rough neighborhood.

That’s a pretty strong claim, and seems to fly in the face of the fact that there’s more Arabs than Iranians out there by far. The Iranian revolution was in the mid 70’s. You know Israel had to fight for it’s existence several times before that, right? The borders everyone is telling Israel to respect are the 1967 ones, even…

I’m guessing the Trump insanity will put a damper on Poilievre’s campaigning a bit, seeing as they’re easy to tie together, but Trudeau is such a dead weight it might not matter.
