I get sad when I see sun dried tomatoes on examples of cringe "dated" food trends because it's got to be one of the best tomato innovations in tomato history.

Every thanksgiving I think about how when I was living in the UK for my MA we had class on thanksgiving and one of my profs brought in what were essentially granola bars and gave them to the Americans and was like “idk what you guys eat but happy thanksgiving” and it makes me laugh every time

1000 more Gore votes in Florida in 2000 and we’d have got that timeline.
In an only slightly better timeline, we would be in touching distance, globally, of a full transition to renewable energy.
"China can produce almost a terawatt of renewable-energy capacity in a year. That is enough to supply as much energy as more than 300 big nuclear-power plants."

The last month of the anti-Mamdani campaign was an absolutely shameful undertaking, an attempt to rip the city and Democratic coalition apart and I'm very happy to see it failed.

why does nobody google even the most basic facts about reality man

I’m sure it’s merely a coincidence that the guy who bankrupted casinos is now responsible for the first, second, and third longest government shutdowns in our country’s history.

Every country has a powerful right wing that argue “if you tax the wealthy, they’ll leave”

We need to start calling their bluff.

We need to make it so the ultra wealthy either contribute enough to be a positive part of society, or be globally shunned and unable to extract further funds from us.

The chief executive officer of the USA is raising revenue through import duties without consulting the representatives of the people; exactly 250 years on from the start of the American Revolution.
