Scientists lay out a sweeping roadmap for transitioning the US off fossil fuels
In a sweeping 637-page document, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine made 80 recommendations for how the United States can justly and equitably pursue decarbonization policies. It includes recommendations for everything from establishing a carbon tax to phasing out subsidies for high-emissions animal agriculture and codifying environmental justice goals

As many Congressional reporters are pointing out, Jordan just now lost as many votes (20) as McCarthy did in most of his 15 ballots in January and more than McCarthy did when he was booted two weeks ago. He could still win maybe on another ballot eventually, but very unclear whether he keeps pushing for more votes or what.
@Huntn00 It's a wonderful place to live! I grew up in the Great Lakes region and couldn't imagine living anywhere else - but now that I'm here, it's home!

One of my favorite times of the day is sunrise, especially during autumn. The view is from the Pine Tree Overlook on the Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia. Enjoy the breathtaking beauty of the sunrise at Pine Tree Overlook with this stunning art print. Check out more prints and products at the link below.

To me the interesting thing here is the confirmation that Twitter never drove much traffic to news/other sites; people were content to just consume headlines/commentary there. That’s appalling information hygiene, especially since Twitter (and any social media site) is prone to social engineering. We need to aggressively champion the idea that one should seek out news/information at their original (and verifiably competent) sources and sites.

The scale of the bloodbath is exponential, almost assuring the current path leading to mutual annihilation, sooner or later. The way of envisioning a reasonable compromise includes the elimination from power of genocidal maniacs on one side and supremacist domination on the other. It is the only option leading to equanimity and peace.

Teslas are ironically, less reliable than other cars, despite being EVs.🙂🙃
Consumer Reports had them next to last in terms of reliability in 2021, bottom 3 in 2022, and still low in 2023.
And a Tesla whistleblower alleges that it's even worse than that. Much worse.😬

Reason and path for hope. Coexistence has been accomplished with neighboring Jordan, a country who sought Israel's complete destruction. Peace was attained with Egypt. After a lot of effort, even the Iraninas signed a major agreement arresting the headlong drive towards mutual annihilation (our side pulled out of it). We’ve held negotiations with the Taliban and signed terms of peace. And we got very close to closing the deal with non-other than Arafat. All this took an incredible amount of work and vision. The tact of continuing a nihilistic path with ever greater numbers of killings and suffering of innocents is proven to only lead to temporary victories and pushing the prospect of peace far into the future.
