yeah i don't want to minimize those issues as they *are* real but when the framing is "COLLAPSE OF CIVILIZATION" i'm gonna question that a lil'.

we don't *have* to grow indefinitely. but that would really screw with the "line must go up" thinking.

is there even an issue?

i don't mean "are the numbers wrong" but "is there even a problem?"

what if we're just going to naturally stabilize at some population level? we know birth rates are high when your kids die a lot, and they lower when they don't.

since when does congress much less mike johnson shy away from "show votes"?

oh that doesn't even begin to cover it.

our entire digitial technological infrastructure is oriented around these assholes. from anti-piracy tech in _monitors_, to entire laws and technological ecosystems around enforcement, and it all evaporates into a fart cloud for "AI".

those chickens have been increasingly coming home to roost. good.

zero sympathy for the recruiter. go join and do a meat wave yourself if you believe in it so much, bozo.

yeah, i'm seeing the fuel issues amid the ongoing counter-strikes on oil infrastructure and the "significant" interest rates.

not to downplay it, but is there more than that going on that i missed?

"natural", after a fashion.

we learned some years back that these folks in macedonia would generate fake content for revenue, but also found the content played better with republicans so that's the niche they've fallen into.

i genuinely don't understand how there could be any classified information to use at trial considering the conduct in question (insofar as there is a "question").

JUST IN: The Republican Mayor of Fairbanks, Alaska’s second biggest city, lost re-election last night to a Democrat.
