Just for the sake of clarity, there is a difference between jumping above 2C during a year and the long-term average being above 2C, which is what we’re usually talking about when it comes to global warming. This headline, and the 1.5C headlines from 2023, tend to muddy the waters. Shit is bad and getting worse, but it’s not quite as bad as you might think at first glance.

Thank you!

Hey, please don’t use ableist slurs. It’s easy to criticize conservatives without doing so.

No worries! I just thought I might have missed something

Wait… I thought the Romanian guy only won like 20ish percent in the first round? Did they have the second round already?

Cool! Still not gonna put all my eggs in the fascist-sympathetic basket

Millions of voters wanted it. They don’t realize that the circle of acceptable in-groups only gets smaller. They’re cheering at the cruelty today, but it won’t take long to catch them too.

Has Mozilla indicated any openness to taking that approach with Firefox?

Littering, especially cigarette butts. Nothing sends me into a blind rage faster than seeing someone flick a cigarette butt out their car window. Not littering is SO easy, the bar is on the floor, and yet so many people just don’t care at all.

I’m glad that’s worked well for you! For the overwhelming majority, keeping their money in the 401k and continuing to make regular contributions, regardless of market volatility, is the wisest course of action.

To be fair, I don’t think being high around my coworkers sounds like a fun time. Drinking a few beers once a year at the Christmas party is more than enough for me

Have you considered sending the journalist a message about this? I haven’t seen mention of it anywhere else

Exactly no one will think twice about seeing you playing a GameBoy ROM on your phone, you’re good

Accounting. The advice given to me when I went to college was “major in something ‘practical’ and minor in what you love”. I think that was good advice. That way you end up with in-demand skills and a solid fallback, but by doing minors and extra certificates, you get to spend time learning things you’re passionate about, and you can demonstrate to future employers that you are well-rounded and adaptable.

Handed down or sold, most likely

We live in the dumbest fucking timeline

It’s easier for some people to submit to authority and believe that the immigrants, trans people, antifascists, etc are the cause of all their problems than it is for them to accept that the world is a flawed and complicated place with few clear answers. It’s a mental shortcut, with often disastrous consequences.

I work in commercial and institutional building energy efficiency. I notice myself paying way more attention to the infrastructure that normally fades into the background. Stuff like “I wonder how big the transformer for this building is?” or “Ooh, that’s a hefty cooling tower, I wonder how much chilled water they use?”
