  • NOAA, the organization that they plan to break up, downsize and commercialize sections such as it’s forecasts.

    PBS article about their plans: The National Weather Service should become a “performance-based organization” held accountable for achieving specific results, even if the head of the agency must “deviate from government rules” to achieve those results.

    The document said little about the National Hurricane Center. It said the administration should “review the work of the National Hurricane Center” and that “data collected by the department should be presented neutrally, without adjustments intended to support any one side in the climate debate.”

    _----- What is the climate debate? Oil companies agree their actions accelerate it… So the only debate would be, do our profits from accelerating harm to the world and the human race offset our best interest over theirs? Profits vs Human race & health of the Earth.

    When we know there are usable alternatives that are being made more profitable daily. They also take away trade depdencies traversing oceans long term. We can gather all the energy we need within our own borders and assist other countries in doing so as well. Instead we put more oil executives in charge of our futures and wonder why we keep coming back to well, maybe we should use oil instead.

    Everyone pro more oil is anti life. “Think of the kids” my ass, the only interest they have in kids is fucking them over.













  • Yeah, they were always great for me, likely do to shitty practices, but when it’s a 17 hour drive home, and it only costs $42 for a ticket. I can get their cheaply easily. Not enough room, throw in another 40 and have a bigger seat up front that’s reserved and not have to deal with that southwest BS of random seats. You can pay more, but I haven’t needed to pay over $70 for a ticket traveling the short distances I need to go in the past 5-7 years.

    For those not from around here my trip distance would be a little farther than London to Berlin.






  • I understand the corn syrup and additives causing weight gain but can someone please explain to me how putting food in a blender would make it worse for you? Ultra processed - what does it even mean. Reshaping food doesn’t make it have more sugar/carbs and what not. Just the shit added to it does right?

    For example, what makes ground beef not considered ultra processed? If someone puts other things into it, it can get worse for you, but is eating ground sirloin really any worse for you than non-ground sirloin, I can’t see how it could be.
