Let he who read the article, cast the first stone.

Also worth noting that this was done in Europe (not the US), so corrupting the nonprofit should be harder.

Really weird for them to make it political by adding such filters — truly the Streisand effect in effect.

It would be more accurate to say that climate change is making the problem worse, so despite their increases in fire management, even more is required.

A lesson in there somewhere about investing in the future…

Having them at half staff for Trump’s inauguration would not only be proper, but also fitting.

Yea but then i wouldn’t have been able to link a funny video, though i was partially wrong as well, lol

BLM in this the second case is Bureau of Land Management - not Black Lives Matter for those confused.

Yep (turns out carbon dioxide is not the bottleneck in plant growth, and co2 as plant food is a bad meme)

Jesus, do these people know we can demonstrate the greenhouse effect in person?

Take two air proof fish tanks, fill one with air, fill another with CO2 and heat them up. Record the temperatures in them. Want to guess how much longer the co2 tank stays warmer?

Tbf, I said commit a felony.

Jesus, imagine having the resources to get off scot free for 34 felonies.

I sure wish I could serve no jail time or even a fucking fine for 34 felonies.

Man, I hope I can afford to have no penalty after being convicted of a felony.

Apparently, we do elect kings — because the president sure as hell is above the law.

In a decision Friday, New York Judge Juan Merchan noted that his inclination was to not impose a sentence of incarceration. In the filing, Merchan noted that if a sentence was unable to be given before Trump took the oath of office, the only other viable option may be to postpone proceedings until after Trump’s presidential term is over.

Justice delayed is Justice denied. It’s also a terrible precedent that such vagrant disregard for NY business laws results in… a fine?

Rules for thee, and freedom for rich me.

Someday we’ll escape this corporate capture hellhole

Citing Facebook’s transparency report, the company added, “Over the last three years, Facebook self-reported 84 million instances of child sexual abuse material. During that same period, the independent, third-party Internet Watch Foundation reported 118 incidents on Pornhub. That is still 118 too many, which is why we are committed to taking every necessary action.”

Some Balatro level shade being thrown there.

Yea, either as a way to stop insurers from leaving, or just being the insurer itself

Congress:

For example, State Farm and Allstate have left California, and dozens of smaller companies have collapsed or fled Florida and Louisiana.

When that happens, homeowners must turn to government-backed insurers of last resort, which are available in just 26 states and typically cost more than private coverage. Enrollment in those state-run plans has skyrocketed, the JEC report notes, and they now cover more than $1 trillion in assets.

I wonder at what point does insurance just default to Federal insurance for all.

Sort of ironic to see it collapse to the point that the best option is the only one left…

At least for Dragon Age (2009) was in development since at least November 2002, 5 years before EA purchased Bioware.

You could also look at DICE, and the absolute shitshow every Battlefield has been since they were purchased by EA.

“How could the US fuck this up?”

Gee, I wonder.
