Overall, this seems really great.

I have some sympathy for home owners who currently have lake front property and apparently aren't going to be reimbursed anything when their property value goes down and their house is no longer in the type of spot the homeowners wanted to live. But it seems so much better for the environment and general safety to get rid of the old dams that the tradeoff is still a good thing otherwise.

Hopefully lots of similar projects will occur worldwide over time.

Eladarling, in Texas church launches program to help fund transgender kids’ healthcare

I love this but it is only a matter of time before some nutsack tries to take advantage of the program to make a point. I hope a lot of families get better care for their kids as a result of this program before that happens though

    If you want to do something about gun violence, get money out of politics. The NRA is one of the biggest donors.

    Decades? How did they hang on to this patent for so long?

    feedum_sneedson, in Laphonza Butler becomes first Black lesbian to serve in Congress

    Is she a good politician, that’s literally all anybody should be asking. The specific identity category of individual elites really doesn’t mean much, unless you are a member of the elite.

    "Sic Transit, Gloria Mundi"...

    We are in an age so stupid, that the gender and sexual preferences of any given person are more important than their skills and behavior to serve the public, really, the society has become an "idiocracy".
