Exhausted liberal; social scientist and lawyer by day, mediocre knitter and KDrama fan by night.

The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice . . . I hope.

Oh, and tell your dog I said “Hi.”

This is a VERY long piece about solar geoengineering that starts, scientifically speaking, badly, but gets better, but still has a few issues.

I imagine everyone of dreaded Boomer era has similar story:
-My uncle fought in Battle of Bulge, vs Nazis
-My future father-in-law was in submarine, vs Nazis
-My dad was in training as Navy doctor, to fight Nazis

Now MAGA/Trump/Hegseth: "Who are we to judge?"

Too many to choose from, but I pick #TaleofLadyOk — a story about a group of people who cling together through some serious adversity. Made me a fan for life of Im Ji Yeon and Choo Young Woo.

Jesus Christ. This is monstrous. Absolutely sickening. The journalists in that room should walk out en masse.
Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

Well it is true that having a reporter murdered and hacked into pieces is incredible in terms of human rights.

Please god, make this stop.

I think what has made us all feel like we are taking crazy pills is that these stories have been public knowledge for years and nobody did anything about it!
