A positive and useful article.

"Instead of getting into an argument, I would rather find a way to get someone to see the world the same way that I do: as a Universe filled with mystery and wonder, revealed by a powerful toolset for investigating those mysteries. I would rather people see behind the skin of science and understand, appreciate, and celebrate its soul. I believe that’s the only way to build trust—and hopefully help people listen to scientists when it really matters."

Beyond pseudoscience, it appears that the approach can also be used to address so many of the human habits that contribute to climate change: cars (especially ICE powered), eating meat, etc.

The genie should grant the guy two more wished for this.

I'm so tired of these religious wars. No, your imaginary friend is not better than everyone else's. We're all the same human clan.

Context?

The size of SUVs these days is getting out of hand.

So yeah, if Biden commits insurgency, then his should be off the ballot. But last time I checked he hasn't come anywhere close.

"There is also the possibility that if Trump is kicked off the ballot, Republicans could take retaliatory action by doing the same to President Joe Biden. Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick has already floated such a move."

I wonder that excuse they'll dream up to try to pull this off.

There isn't some way to house Democrats to hold an open deposition, without the cooperation of Republicans?

BTW: Congress is next scheduled to convene on the 8th

...and those citizens continue to vote for people that seem to hate them.

That and approving more US oil production.

That's basically where they are in California. No GOP candidate has won a state-wide seat in a long time and in the legislature they seem to be permanently in the minority.

"Nuclear itself is largely unchanged, allowing it to pass coal thanks to the latter's decline. Its output has been boosted by a new, 1.1 Gigawatt reactor that come online this year (a second at the same site, Vogtle in Georgia, is set to start commercial production at any moment). But that's likely to be the end of new nuclear capacity for this decade; the challenge will be keeping existing plants open despite their age and high costs."

With its very high cost, still unresolved waste issues and government-required support, it's hard to believe that nuclear has any real future. At the same time the costs for renewables is trending downward.

Yeah, but did they run out of beer?

Thanks.

Put yourself between it and your dog. Mounting is an act to show dominance. Be the more dominant dog.

Sorry, what does MAU stand for?

Haven’t encountered such a community, but it seems like the concept could be enlarged to include daily acts of other things: hamburgers, beer, dog treats, etc.

And whale oil used to be a thing. I’m hoping natural gas will also go away.
