What we’re experiencing right now is basically the impact of around 1.5 degrees. All of that is basically from very old emissions. We’re on the hook for at least a couple more degrees, but its not like we’ve even slowed or stopped the rate of emissions, so perhaps even more than that.

The impacts of these forcings won’t be linear.

Israel has left the path of the moral high ground wide open.

Is that a threat to pull the leash?

At a certain point you gotta stop voting for the ‘good cop’ part of the ratchet effect.

Hey real leadership

FAIR is an absolutely great group of journalists.

US hedgemony:

Whatever the fuck they want. Both American parties are pro-genocide, and their voters are either too stupid or too scared to demand otherwise. Its relevant because Israel could be doing absolutely none of this without US backing. US voters had (and somewhat still have) an opportunity to demand from their candidates but as I said, either too stupid or too scared to demand it.

Now Israel has carte blanc.

Turkey: If the US won’t enforce its own rules we will.

Turkey, the USs’ most reliable allie in the Middle East (even when they elect rw chucklefucks) since basically ever.

Calling Israel an allie when they lied to get us into a war with Iraq is a fucking disgrace to countries that have actually held with the US.

(Oh Israel has also bombed US ships while being an “allie”. not sure if more aggreguous than Bibi’s testimony.)

Interesting. If judges are going to be political regardless, I don’t see another option for democracies.

Israel must think they’ve got US Congress and presidency on lock. No need to continue to escalate.

Some team is getting their bonus by some fucked up metric of engagement and so they are getting points for people scrolling?

I dont know. i miss the plaintext web sometimes.

Is the dashed line the old model?

Instead I am going to draw a picture of a toe:

I will not.

Oh my god this article lay out. Just put sand in my eyes.

What was their conclusion?

Blue MAGA thinks they hold the reins

Probably about 10% of what it will cost to rebuild Palestine (assuming that Palestinians aren’t ethnically cleansed from all of Palestine).

Its 18 dollars for a combo meal the local McD’s right now. Across the street is a Puerto Rican place, where I can get a steak sandwich for $21 (or shrimp for $20, or chicken for $18) and it comes with a side of gandules rice or tostones.

Its not that complicated.
