November 21, 20214 yr comment_1039477 You can make all the decisions on your own all you'd like, when you can actually comprehend them. Another European Elitist declaration. I'll continue to make all my own decisions... I don't care if you approve of them or not. Then again I heared Republicans are now affraid of the word "critical" and what words might be strung after it, so who knows... You heard wrong... My wife just came in to tell me about a car that just plowed into a Christmas Parade in Wisconsin... it appears Democrats are afraid of critical losses... this is not good. Report
November 22, 20214 yr comment_1039486 For fucks sake, I don't even care nor desire to approve of them, I just hope they are cast with understanding. bad decisions are one thing, misinformed ones are perhaps even worse. Maligned decisions just to spite a portion of your citizens is probably the worst, the need to tease some faction just cause you like it is grade school thinking. And why "Democrats" need to be invoked over the tragedy with 5 deaths just adds to my line before: If you need to use tragedies to further define your political opponents, you aren't doing politics, you are being a demagogue.

Too dark, too strong.I made her a "Black and Brown" tonight, which is half Guinness and half A&W Root Beer... she drank the entire pitcher.I had to make another pitcher. A new hot tub staple, and it's awesome! Report

December 7, 20214 yr comment_1039585 More lies...Global CO2 emissions have been flat for a decade, new data reveals - Carbon Brief Report
December 7, 20214 yr comment_1039593 Did you read more then the initial, wrongly assumed, "gotcha" you think you found? 1) The title states that total excess CO2 emisions from "Land Use Change" (aka destroying CO2 capturing forrest to make CO2 releasing agricuture) have been steadily declining over the past decade. We are finally seeing a net emission below 4 Gton of CO2 per annum. Otherwise said, protecting and rebuilding forrests is finally keeping pace with deforrestation and slightly outpacing it. We still run a net surplus of CO2 emmisions on LUC, which is BAD! 2) CO2 emmisions have already rebound from the 2020 COVID-19 lockdowns and industrial standstill which made out net output of fossil fuel related CO2 drop from 37 Gton CO2 per annum in 2019 to 35 Gton in 2020 to estimated 36.5 Gton in 2021. This once again is a NET SURPLUS number. 3) All numbers are NET SURPLUSS EMMISIONS. Meaning it speaks about the CO2 produced that is NOT captivated by human or natural activity and thus continues to up the CO2 concentration in the air. Basically, good news that we stopped deforrestation from being a negative influence on out total CO2 output. Sadly this total is about 10% of the total human CO2 output which relies heavily on fossil fuel burning. We are still churning more CO2 out then ever before, and are thus increasingly still polluting our enviroment with it. You are happy you stopped further opening your kitchen sink's faucet (it is still open btw) while totally ignoring all the faucets in the bathroom continueing to open further. gratz? Report
December 8, 20214 yr comment_1039597 Did you read more then the initial, wrongly assumed, "gotcha" you think you found? Like I said... more lies. We are still churning more CO2 out then ever before Which means "we" can't do anything about it... except maybe a few more pandemics... that'll do the trick.More people dying means less people breathing... that's what you really want... am I right? Report
December 9, 20214 yr comment_1039616 What lies? I gave numbers that your own linked report gave and noted what they mean. It aint really my issue if you singular person doesn't believe we are disrupting the biosphere with our technological prowess. We are actually pretty efficient in our CO2 production while living. Coal power plants on te other hand... We sure can do things about it, cause we are the first who actually made it happen. Are you a fatalist perhaps? Report
December 9, 20214 yr comment_1039618 What lies? I gave numbers that your own linked report gave and noted what they mean. I was not saying you were lying at all... I'm saying they are lying. Whenever anyone offers up their own statistics to support their own doomsday theory, and then demands an ultimatum to either support their bullshit, or we all die... experience compels me to say no. Once again... I'm not giving up my freedom because you're afraid of something. Report
December 12, 20214 yr comment_1039644 Your libertarian notion of "liberty" does not excist. You give up liberties left and right for usually good cause. You just don't like this particulary set of restrictions. And this is not a doomsday theory nor reality, nothing is. You just want to make it out like one so you can respond with "meh, if it is that bad, why should I care?". And I was asking which lies you found out about with that article, not to what I said.

December 13, 20214 yr comment_1039648 Meh... the USA is currently leaderless. Governors are filling the void... some better than others. I recently saw a comic of Uncle Sam sitting on Santa's lap when he asks "What do you want for Christmas?"Uncle Sam responds with... "I'll settle for $1.79 gas and some mean tweets" It's the only time I can think of in history that the USA has a lame duck president in his very first year in office. Report
December 13, 20214 yr comment_1039652 He did pass the infrastructure bill, did he not?Presidents do not pass bills. Presidents can only sign bills into law, or veto. Somehow you must believe that Senate Democrats using Reconciliation to force trillions of dollars of spending on pet projects, as a win. If that were the case, Joe Biden would not have a dismal 40% approval rating. Infrastructure spending is needed in the USA... we strongly disagree on what to spend it on. So far, they have failed to get enough support to do the same with their massive Communist spending bill... but they are desperate to do something before the midterms. They would have better success if they told the truth, cast their votes, and summarily resigned. Donald Trump had the USA totally firing on all cylinders. He did it with minimal political support, and under the worst possible environment. In a few short months, Joe Biden has allowed the country to destroy itself, in every possible way. Report
December 13, 20214 yr comment_1039655 Firing on all cylinders on the Obama coattails right into a stagnation. And if you think the economical downturn and gas pricing is Biden's fault, I'd like you to pinpoint exactly where it is Biden's fault. Heck Biden is even selling some strategic stock to try and combat rising prices! No wait, he did have some actions, like massive tax breaks (temporary for the poor and middle class, eternal for the rich) which added more debt then anything Biden is doing. Also all those regulations he got scrapped, the ones keeping corporations from pilliging not only the countryside but also the population residing in it. yeah, very big milestones by the guy who's only claim to fame about repealing Obama's legacy is by stacking empty folders on a table >_> Atleast Trump's Infrastructure bill will be revealed in 2 weeksTM.

December 14, 20214 yr comment_1039658 Firing on all cylinders on the Obama coattails right into a stagnation. A new side effect of those vaccines... delusions... or it's the drugs you're on. Maybe you should report that. Heck Biden is even selling some strategic stock to try and combat rising prices! The Strategic Petroleum Reserve is to protect the USA from a gas shortage. There is no shortage. Using the SPR to cause a temporary fluctuation in market price is misappropriation, and signals a massive shortage of intelligence. Trump had the USA energy independent, and Joe Biden destroyed it on his first day in office. Don't get me wrong... I'm overjoyed that he crashed so fast. Report
December 15, 20214 yr comment_1039669 Delusions about Trump being good for the economy? They way he runs businesses into the ground, you should be happy he didn't made buck on his promise to default the US on its debts to "clear them"... Nah he just oversaw a large tax decrease on the corporations which made them do stock-buybacks, true trickle down economics! Supply & Demand hasn't made its way into US curriculum? Why you think the price of oil is high? Besides Saudi's wanting to be even more filfthy rich. No wait thats Capitalism at work, you should be honoured to be squeezed out of those $$ to enrich the oil barons. And becoming energy independent by polluting the enviroment by fracking or drilling wherever isn't really a lofty goal. Report
December 16, 20214 yr comment_1039672 I guess we'll just continue taking care of things here, and Belgian Socialists will continue having an opinion over there. Due to rapidly increasing inflation under Brandon's spending agenda, higher interest rates are coming.I remember Jimmy Carter, and it's going to get really ugly for many people here. Report

December 17, 20214 yr comment_1039692 haven't you heared, Capitalism likes inflation, it means they get to blame loss of standard of living on a word instead of their actions yeah, who would even like infrastructure investments that are projected to raise federal income Report

December 17, 20214 yr comment_1039697 Capitalism doesn't like printing cash, it dilutes their wealth. Also Venezuela got hammered by trade restrictions and OPEC screwing up their oil export $$. That and being dictatorial doesn't help. Report
December 17, 20214 yr comment_1039699 Also Venezuela got hammered by trade restrictions That's what happens with Socialism. I'm still waiting for those trade restrictions on China, but big tech gets in the way. Slave labor makes cheap products, and the USA is addicted to cheap products. Something will happen eventually.

December 18, 20214 yr comment_1039716 They didn't get trade restrictions due to socialism (btw, go restrict the EU then...). It funnely enough was about "protecting democracy" >_> Why yes capitalism likes slave labour, surprise! Report
