"German Research Centre for Geosciences in Potsdam, says that “carbon capture and storage” (CCS) can be done safely in the saltwater and limestone pores at 600 to 1,200 meters below the seabed. “It will either dissolve as carbonic acid or bind with the limestone,” she says. Injection sites in the North Sea are the German government’s main solution for so-called “unavoidable emissions,” like those from the cement and other industries"

Basically another subsidy harvesting scheme
There isn't even the expectation that the co2 will stay in porous limestone, but instead end up making the oceans more acidic, which is already a problem with elevated atmospheric co2 levels

A crisis of excess consumption & growth can't be solved, by growing in a slightly different way

Israel is an extreme example of colonization, formed with the barrel of a gun under the guise of returning to homeland. Somehow being at the wrong end of a genocide entitles Israelis to commit their own? Why does the USA continues to support & fund an overt theocracy?

Project 2025 = Powell Memorandum 2.0
Conservative after having their wildest dreams come true packing the supreme court

They needed new dreams
The result a 900 page dream journal
Complete with their very own self induced Armageddon/purge

Conservatives over played their hand
Playing for the tie only works if it's close

We should all make sure it isn't, Again!

What's a mouse?
I use a trackpad
The lenovo version of trackpad on my thinkpad has buttons on the top & bottom along with trackpoint that works when nothing else will..
I even have a usb keyboard with a trackpad

I bought a gaming mouse [not logitech] to set up a distro that wouldn't install by trackpad for $12 once the install finished, it sits on a shelf

A forever mouse is a solution in search of a problem

The customer base of people who use mice is shrinking, most people use their phones or pads a majority of the time

Not an "artist, songwriter or journalist" You're on your own

Project 2025 = Powell memorandum 2.0

Ah Dems finding new ways to lose
The last time the incumbent wasn't the nominee We got eight years of Dick

An important point:
"The higher level is: What do we do with these big corporations? One is we’ve got to subordinate them constitutionally. So corporations should never have equal rights with real people. Now they’re connecting with AI. You want a deadly cocktail? Connect artificial persons called corporations with AI.
Founders intent was for corporations to be temporary

We have a system designed for 1% of the present population
We have a system designed for information moving at the speed of horse
Founders intent was a representative for 30,000 citizens, presently a representative for 700,000 citizens
We have a system that is completely over whelmed by the number & complexity of decisions to be made
We need more channels for informed feedback

This is just more of the Powell memorandum mode of operation, play the long game. Use that legacy money to cultivate the next generation into the good ol boys swamp

Religion at it's best is about community. The rituals, the stories, are content/entertainment, extended games of telephone. Selling a product that can't possibly be vetted, the "afterlife". People get to like what they like, religion is not for me

I don't believe anything, I know some things, I'll guess at others. I'm aware when I'm pulling it out my arse :D Every question doesn't have to have an answer.

Keep it simple.
There is only one meaningful moral tenet, don't be a dick. Don't do things to others you wouldn't want to have happen to you.
Now I can craft an engaging narrative justifying all manner of bad behavior but, I know better, we all do. Even those with reduced empathy know better.
Don't Be a Dick!
