    My quote wasn’t in the testimony, Jimmc414. As I said; there was plenty of editorializing in this joke of a report.

    The time spent setting all that up would be equivalent to years of Spotify subscriptions and would have way less content.

    Have you even read it? “Dr. Fauci repeatedly played semantics with the definition of “gain-of-function” research in an effort to avoid conceding that the NIH’s funded this dangerou…

    In America? Have you been paying any attention to how insane the American right has become? We’re about to have a dude who fucks porn stars as President. Again. Oh and an insurrect…

    It says a lot about how ridiculously fat that industry is. It’s where young mostly white guys go to retire.

    We saw Furiosa in IMAX. It was amazing. It was also $45 for two tickets. Concessions were a bit more than that. Hollywood: Most families don’t have $100-200 to throw down on a sing…

    If there wasn’t one company responsible for all of concert ticketing in the US maybe there would be fewer victims.

    Is there a way to filter out articles that are pay-walled? I know this is unrelated to the article but I’m curious as I’m tired of clicking on links and being unable to read them.

    Do these kids just not have parents? Are teachers unable to get parents to require their kids leave their phones at home? When I was in high school we had Nokia phones that did bas…

    It’s simple, they’re just stubborn. Almost no one in the US has a commute of more than 40 miles a day, and most Americans own their own place. If EVs had a 600 mile range and could…

    I don’t live in Finland. In fact, Finland’s population is half that of Michigan’s, so I’m sure they’d be fine with solar and wind as well. They already get a quarter of their power…

    When was the last nuclear plant built in California? Edit: downvoting someone you disagree with is not cool. Go outside, touch some grass.

    Nuclear energy is just being used as a carrot by fossil fuel companies. They don’t want renewables so they’re dangling an unrealistic option.
