Parks Canada bans watercraft from Manitoba's Clear Lake for 2024 over zebra mussel concerns (www.cbc.ca)

These fuckers have been spreading like wildfire so now Parks Canada has invoked the nuclear option. This is a bit of a test case and I really hope it’s successful and shows that zebra mussels can be stopped given appropriate and possibly even temporary restrictions. Of course to Canadians the natural world has no value beyond...

World’s top climate scientists expect global heating to blast past 1.5C target (www.theguardian.com)

Almost 80% of the respondents, all from the authoritative Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), foresee at least 2.5C of global heating above preindustrial levels, while almost half anticipate at least 3C (5.4F). Only 6% thought the internationally agreed 1.5C (2.7F) limit will be met....

Voting power is proportional to shares owned aka how much money you have. The market cap of Lockheed Martin is $110B. Where are the students going to get the literal multi-10s-of-billions of dollars to acquire an activist-size stake? Like holy fuck this is so unbelievably stupid.

It’s a hard problem. Joining orgs to meet people to sleep with is obvious wrecker behavior but often orgs are where you meet people most compatible with you. Every political party, even mainstream ones, has lots of people sleeping with each other. Humans are gonna catch feelings, especially in leftist orgs where trauma bonding from violent interactions with cops is possible. I don’t have the solution really.

The most unbalancing thing about becoming more politically aware is realizing how many things are compatible with fascism

It isn’t all grey marching frowning guys and beating up ethnic minorities and suppressing art. People who show you personally great kindness, who make jokes, who enjoy music and good food - they find fascism compatible. Just endless numbers of seemingly nice things can happily coexist with and violently defend fascism. The...

Toward the end of 2021, according to a senior European official, Putin was weighing whether to launch his full-scale invasion when he met with the head of one of Russia’s main spy services, who told him that the CIA, together with Britain’s MI6, were controlling Ukraine and turning it into a beachhead for operations against Moscow.

But the Times investigation found that Putin and his advisers misread a critical dynamic. The CIA didn’t push its way into Ukraine. U.S. officials were often reluctant to fully engage, fearing that Ukrainian officials could not be trusted, and worrying about provoking the Kremlin.

Yet a tight circle of Ukrainian intelligence officials assiduously courted the CIA and gradually made themselves vital to the Americans.

The imperial frontier state drew us in! We didn’t want to control them, they asked us to!

Starting to feel like the entirety of dentistry is a scam

In the USA. Up until a few years ago dental visits were nothing to really think about. I went twice a year and got a cleaning. There was one bad place I went to a decade ago that kept “finding” small cavities to “proactively” fill but thankfully I switched to another and all is well. My home care routine is perfect. I...

Our own country is literally falling apart, not due to war but because people keep voting on one issue they currently feel strongly about.

definitely, voters caring very strongly about not doing genocide is why this democracy is falling apart.
