me when I don't care for baseload generation capacity and ignore an active nuclear renaissance with research, deployments, and new technologies.
Even more reason to believe many of those tech company pledges to power their data centers with nuclear won’t come to pass in the 2030s like they claim.
IPCC reports #renewables now 10 times more efficient than new #nuclear at #climate mitigation.
92.5% new power generation capacity added worldwide in 2024 was from renewables - with new nuclear nowhere.
New nuclear vastly over-cost and over-time.

but have you considered that I as a motorist am the superior species and am here to destroy all other modes of transportation smaller than I.
I’m fine with limiting the speed of e-scooters and e-bikes just as long as we do the same for every vehicle on our roads.

PLEASE do not feed raw milk to your cats. Or your kids. Or yourself. #H5N1
There are two fatal cases of H5N1 in cats in California. Both cats had been fed raw milk from the recalled lot in the ongoing outbreak associated with Raw Farms. The milk wasn’t tested. But an astute veterinarian tested the cats for flu based on clinical suspicion.

My view is that extrajudicial vigilante killings are not good, but the incuriosity of well-compensated columnists about why millions of people’s horrific, life-changing experiences with a sprawling, cruel, bankruptcy-inducing health care system might lead them to feel differently makes me really sad

Becoming disabled is *the* most radicalizing thing that can happen to you because it happens atop whatever marginalizations you already have, amplifies them into a laser focus.
For cishet white men, it can be the first time they've *ever* experienced marginalization.

ima be real, I've had a homeless person offer to pay for my subway fare when my presto card ran out of funds so that's 1:0 for The homeless vs Elon.
I’ve reported on homelessness for years and met many, many people who have found themselves in awful situations
Every single one of them had more decency and integrity than this privileged plutocrat

Awful lot of Europeans of all countries patting themselves on the back for supporting refugeed Syrians.
Not a lot of recognition that Europe's response was overwhelmingly carceral, keeping 10,000s in camps, drowning 1,000s in the sea, and madly electing anti-migrant politicians.

This healthcare ceo is hard to talk about because how much death can you cause indirectly before you’re a murderer who got murdered? How do you convince yourself it doesn’t count if you kill people with policy instead of a gun? What do you have to believe about life and systems and human worthiness?
