Jesus christ, MSNBC, stop calling it “deportation”; you’re legitimizing what we used to euphemistically call “extraordinary rendition” but was more accurately “disappearing”.

I doubt that the threat of suing the government would make him change; after all, it won’t be paid out of his pocket. But if the families were being inundated by offers of attorneys to represent them in a civil suit against RFK Jr himself…

I’ve always preferred the IPCC terminology of “low-carbon”. Emphasizes that all power sources have carbon and other emissions at some point in their lifecycle. They also levelize the emissions based on energy produced over the expected lifespan of the power generation station/solar panel/dam/wind turbine/etc, and nuclear power is down there with solar, wind, geo, and hydro. Waste must be dealt with, and the best disposal method is reprocessing so you don’t have to store it.

Nuclear semiotics is fascinating. I was very excited when I came across the Federal Disposal Field in Fallout 76 and found that Bethesda used the “field of spikes” design.

“California lawmakers propose…”? Buddy, that’s an initiative, it can be proposed by literally anyone in the state.

I simply can’t fathom the effort some people will expend just to be shitty to others.

To be fair, side-eye is the only eye they can give.

Oh, c’mon…

“Cultural visit” you mean junket? Honestly, I would love to go check out Pituffik, but I suspect she and I don’t have the same appreciation for the outdoors.

This should be the last migration we have to do, since the open and decentralized model resists enshittification.

Eating some Girl Scout cookies as I see this.

I’m a cybersecurity professional, and I would personally place China and Russia as equal threats, but too bad our compromised government has masters to please. Of course, both of them pale in comparison to the massive insider threats occupying senior positions.

Ironic that this report was released today.

It also doesn’t say shit about Russia encouraging ships to drag anchors through the North Sea to cut telecom lines.

Wouldn’t that negate that sweet sweet tax write-off? Let me guess, they get to book the tax deduction for the loss AND the profit from an eventual sale as long as enough time has passed?
