If you read the rest of the article, she addresses that. She doesn’t believe that she is personally brave enough to physically confront what is coming, so for her, the choice is get out now while she can and be vocal.

The scary part is that there absolutely is logic to it. They’re still just slightly short of being willing to say that part out loud.

I feel like 9/11 was the inflection point. The great recession was just another symptom of the problem. Banks can’t get overwhelmed by underwater mortgages if people aren’t underwater in the first place.

That would explain why she’s willing to just toss the coffee in the back seat. Must have a side hustle doing razor blade disposal as well.

The other side of the coin is that customers aren’t obligated to buy. There’s always a limit to how expensive you can make a product/service before people will simply stop paying for it. Trying to find that balance point can be damned difficult.

No. I refuse to concede even one more facial hair style to the fascists.

Not all of them. Some of the carbon atoms will have decayed into (I think) nitrogen.

We talking movie Thanos, or comic book Thanos?

The problem is, unless things change drastically, that is the trajectory the US is on.

Until one of the other branches of government decides to grow a spine, Trump is free to do whatever he wants.

I work in a factory making turbine engines, if I worked in a factory making 50k$ watches we would produce just as much CO2.

You absolutely would not. Not even remotely close.

Also, you’re ignoring the emissions over the lifetime of the thing. As soon as the watch is manufactured, it’s emissions contribution is done. That turbine will continue generating emissions over it’s entire existence.

Not by the usual definition. The carbon, etc that used to form the cyanobacteria is completely broken down and formed into miscellaneous hydrocarbons. There’s no petrified remains, nor rock impressions of the bacteria.

Many people do this.

Many people are insane.

Just tested. It’s Ctrl+right, not Ctrl+left.

Edit: also, no-one says that the cell size has to remain default. 34 million pages is rookie numbers.
