It’s a fallacy to think that commercial interests and the environment can’t work together. Our current situation is built around 150 years of established petroleum infrastructure and there is always hesitation to build new things when a working business strategy has been guiding the corporation.

But commerce and environmental causes work so well together because of the renewable and low maintenance ideas that emerge from their overlap. That’s how solar panels, wind turbines, and geothermal energy got started. What’s stopping them is the addiction to the old ways of energy commerce.

Morgan would gladly take money for R&D into renewables that require a subscription. Capitalists understand infinite (ie renewable) resources with low to no procurement costs are the future of the product. Wind and sunshine are also on almost every planet - this is future proofing energy production and it all feeds back into the money machine to make it easier, cheaper, and more resilient.

One was hired to run HHS

This is how we get real life to look like a video game. Imagine page boys and interns in their little suits hooting for martial violence like the background of Street Fighter. What a time to be alive.

Not woke, go broke.

Of course it does, the install base dwarfs PlayStation. Go where the money is to find money. Business is not that hard.

Sounds like the idea of “belief” is just being accepted as a religious or spiritual idea. Beliefs are the cornerstone because it’s a tool we use every single day.

At the center of how we think is the fundamental idea of The Way Things Work and that comes down to how we believe the physical things around us will act and react. Just about everyone will start making a choice by comparing what we know to be real or true for ourselves and the things around us.

That cornerstone of belief is what we use to define “real and true”. Ghosts or spirits are absolutely real and true for some people while others don’t see the same evidence.

Beliefs get the special treatment because we are a collection of our experiences and each one of us has a different way of understanding how things work.

Truly. A man who bankrupted a casino in charge of a bank. I’m expecting a lot of embezzling.

New Jersey is too low. Serious doubts about the validity of this table.

She’s still gone. Goodbyes or not, she was snatched.

Hard to imagine Trump would let Trump fail so badly at the border that millions of migrants are crossing? Why is Trump so bad at the border, according to Trump?

Shows how tone deaf they are on the regular that they keep making really excellent one slide promos of democratic socialism and think it shows bad things.

The only people who claim God told them to do something are the same people who God would never say nice things to

Also known as “woonerven” in The Netherlands and Belgium, where the designs were first popularized — as well as “living streets” and other names around the world — they’re typically narrow, often include landscaping, and aim to support a variety of community uses.

Seems silly the left is to blame for nothing working when the right is actively hunting and disappearing the constituents of the left.

Besides, right wingers are crazy and lie to get their way all the time. A generation of reaching across the aisle has led to the country turning right more and more as concessions are only ever given to the right and never to the left.

What organization? It’s literally hundreds of little echo chambers that spew variations of the same bullshit but distinct for their region, like sects of a religion. If one big organization is doing this it should be easy to point to them. Which one?

They have tickle spots?! I need to scritch a bara now.

Heretics are where I would expect lots of experience in expressing sigils

I’ve never seen or heard anyone ever answer for the design choices and this makes perfect sense. Always thought Schumacher was having his fun like Tarantino does with feet.

Stochastic terrorism is different from an organized civil war. These are not the actions of a united front but lone individuals who are encouraged to be violent with the people they are told to hate.

You’re right and second chances are a real thing. But she saw Trump the first time. There were families ripped apart at the border and children who are still missing today. The person she gave a second chance thought it was okay to use live fire to disperse protestors and thought the George Floyd matches were racist against him. He ignored the safety of literally everyone when he tried to ignore COVID.

She doesn’t get off easy because his bullying was known and she wasn’t paying attention. That’s the lesson of our age: pay attention or pay for it.
