Experts and activists agree that Russia’s policies and actions towards minorities have long contradicted some of the key principles of the Framework Convention on Minorities....
TL,DR: Putin doesn’t understand the difference between “discrimination” and “consequences”. He’s mad that people are treating his government negatively because he invaded Ukraine, so by quitting the Convention, he’s giving himself even more permission to be a brutal, authoritarian asshole.
According to Bloomberg, its [Shell’s] business plan “puts oil and gas front and center while giving low-carbon efforts a smaller supporting role,”
…the oil and gas giant set the task of ‘giving millennials a reason to connect emotionally with Shell’s commitment to a sustainable future.’
Wow, Shell. Fuck you too.
People (especially the rich old guys who make decisions like this) make the mistake of thinking that young people are dumb. They’re not. I hope this condescending attempt at manipulation turns into the well-publicized fiasco that it deserves to be.
I think Pascal’s Wager is hilarious. Many Christians use it because they really haven’t thought about it, and it shows. Here are some examples of how to easily counter it....
A climate scientist on Wednesday said he was being threatened with the sack for refusing to fly back to Germany from a research trip in Papua New Guinea....
But the IfW Kiel is allegedly insisting approval for his trip ran out on September 10 and he must return immediately by plane.
He should have been back weeks ago. They want him back quickly, not over a month from now. He’s already proven himself to be unreliable and unprofessional, so I’m not surprised the institute isn’t being more flexible than they already have been. He could have avoided flying by planning ahead. Jobs come with responsibilities.
He’s already been given several weeks of leeway, which is a LOT more than most of us could expect from our employers.
I’m thinking about specific web pages that use very small text for the body of an article. Then, once I’ve adjusted my browser so it’s legible, the text on other websites is ridiculously big.
Sadists. Or perhaps I’m giving them too much credit. Maybe they’re just morons.
It’ll take a bit to get used to an environment where disagreements don’t have to become arguments, and simple misunderstandings aren’t personal attacks.
It’s nice when people give each other the benefit of the doubt.

I personally hate rounded corners and shadows added everywhere. Makes most things look crappy and smudged.
Sure. Why not. Anything goes. (startrek.website)
