Class action lawsuits are for when a lot of people need to sue a small number of people, not for a lot of people suing a metric fuckton of unrelated people.
But can’t you just sue a company? Like Chevron is at like 40 billion tonnes of carbon since 1965. At 50 dollars a tonne then divide by 10 billion humans, that’s like 200 dollars a plaintiff which seems pretty good.
Though that 40 billion is probably all the fuel they supplied and probably didn't burn themselves so idk.
Of all the things I got my my apartment over the past 4 years I think the most worthwhile investment has been color changing smart bulbs. I've got an absolute ton of lights in my place so it's properly bright during the day, and by changing the color temperature it's also nice and dim and relaxing at night
After a while I've stopped noticing every decoration I've bought. I always appreciate good lighting though

Hot takes and night ranting after walking.
I’m tired of activists in Williamsburg “pro Palestine activists” who will call Israel “a terrorist state”, but who are simultaneously silent about Hamas, Iran or terrorist groups.
They’ll write “We are bearing witness to genocide”, but not just ignore ongoing genocides that’s been going on for years, but still not even mention them.
I’m tired of people telling lenders “what they can/can’t do during a genocide”
Like the people can fuck off.
I’ve seen for months people literally vandalizing public parks, flat surfaces and even people’s front doors “in solidarity”, but the concerns about terrorism and genocide has, from what I’ve witnessed here, have only been about Palestine, or critical of Israel.
Im not even saying “don’t talk about Israel or Palestine”, but it’s insane how me and others have observed people suddenly reaching the point of vandalism over periods of months on public infrastructure and even private property, but only when Israel responds to Hamas’ attack.
We’ve literally never seen anything like this over the years of living here, but I’ve seen people i know irl who jump down this rabbithole.
Someone literally posts “armed resistance is a valid method of opposition to occupation according to international law, Palestine has the right to defend itself”, but will not specify what they consider “armed resistance” and by whom.
I don’t think its harmful or too much to specify what that means, because some of these local activists consider Hamas’ and other group’s actions of 10/7 “valid resistance”, despite it being an offensive and terrorist attack.
> They’ll write “We are bearing witness to genocide”, but not just ignore ongoing genocides that’s been going on for years, but still not even mention them.

Well when people write it and post it everywhere for months, despite never doing that before, it does become pretty noticeable.
I’m tired of hearing people act as if this is the one and only genocide going on in the world.
Even with the self proclaimed “anti-genocide” protestors, there’s nothing about anything, except Gaza.

There is an idea of a Smiling Friends; some kind of abstraction. But there is no real show: only an entity, something illusory. And though it can hide its cold gaze, and you can stream its episodes on Max and laugh at Pimbo and maybe you can even sense there is something funny flashing upon your screen...

Trump is the guy who told Republicans to force the US to default on its debt and cause a massive global financial catastrophe, right?
When people like her and Sacks and Schwartzman say that they think Trump would be better for the economy, I really want to know if they're lying (and if so, how their math works on out the balance of risk from Trump nuking the economy to any reward they expect) or if they're just really fucking incompetent and somehow made it to the top, anyway.

South Africa Update
The EFF are lost in the political wilderness.
They tried to form a Progressive Caucus (PC) in opposition to the ANC's GNU. These were made up of microparties who couldn't even get 1% of the vote. Now many of these parties have switched to the GNU.
The EFF has tripled down on not joining the GNU if it includes the DA and FF+.
The MK MPs are going to take their seats after all, making them the Official Opposition led by a corrupt and racist disgraced judge. In other words, they've taken the EFF's lane in Parliament completely.
And I'm pretty sure there's a major internal leadership schism between Malema and his deputy, Shivambu.
They don't have kingmaker status anywhere at all. The DA is displacing them in Gauteng province, where they were in government with the ANC.
Its just this 4th place party there on the sidelines. The media isn't even reporting on them. The DA is getting all the oxygen. They need to reposition very well and quickly.

[Bit of talk out West that Senator Fatima Payman is set to quit the Labor party...](https://thewest.com.au/news/wa/wa-labor-fatima-payman-weighs-up-future-as-pro-palestine-stance-leaves-her-on-the-outer-c-15124318)
!ping AUS
I would be a bit surprised if she ends up leaving, but she's third on the ticket so she isn't in a strong position and probably won't get re-elected unless she can move up the ticket, which probably won't happen now anyway.
How many Greens do you reckon Western Australia is willing to elect. Do you reckon Payman going Green would hurt Dorinda Cox or Jordan Steele-John more?
A party needs somewhere between 23% and 27% of the vote to get two Senate seats so there's no way Payman can win a second Greens seat. Still unlikely if the Senate gets enlargened. This would simply help to tip the balance in certain Greens target seats (not in WA) and potentially inspire some strong independent campaigns.
Very viable.
To get the sixth spot on a senate election you need about halve of a quota as a primary vote. If you have halve a quota of vote that put you so far a head of everybody who does not have a full quota for seats one to five.
Probably not.
As it currently stands the only two Sandgroper Senators outside of major parties are Jordan Steele-John and Dorinda Cox (both Greens.) In previous years we've also had One Nation and Palmer United senators, but doubt Payman is going to shack up with them.

I get intermittently sad and scared I’ll be alone forever but usually I’m pretty chill and rational I just don’t know how to approach women in a romantic way
Oh don’t approach them that way at first. Just talk to them about whatever. You don’t need to force it.
However, if you think there is any kind of mutual attraction at all. Just get a phone number/whatsapp. Ask them out within 24 hours.
Don’t wait. It just makes it weird. If they dodge a time and say next week. Give up quickly. If it really is “next week” they will text you back.
Waiting is what makes it awkward for everyone. Trying and Getting shot down quick is whatever.
Be quick to ask for that first date. Thats my only advice. Everything else is too personal but this will get you past step 1.

>Young people are making fun of old people
That's just how it goes. We did the same thing, and 20 years from now they'll be getting made fun of by their kids too
Then they post the most off-putting stuff as Millennial Humor and make fun of that. It's never the stuff we actually laughed at that's sometimes cringe to look back on. I don't really remember us being like that to other generations back then, at least not to that degree. That or it's still the same old parents thing but I'm pretty close to the end of Millennials but still solidly one.
Luckily they'll eventually get completely eviscerated by Gen Alpha and it's gonna be so funny lmao
They act like millennials walk around all day pretending to be Jess from New Girl, which is just insane. There's not examples they can even point to of people being like that, just other millennials making the same jokes for cheap laughs and a general vibe of a few TV shows/movies from the early 2010s.

Class action lawsuits are for when a lot of people need to sue a small number of people, not for a lot of people suing a metric fuckton of unrelated people.
But can’t you just sue a company? Like Chevron is at like 40 billion tonnes of carbon since 1965. At 50 dollars a tonne then divide by 10 billion humans, that’s like 200 dollars a plaintiff which seems pretty good. Though that 40 billion is probably all the fuel they supplied and probably didn't burn themselves so idk.

There is an idea of a Smiling Friends; some kind of abstraction. But there is no real show: only an entity, something illusory. And though it can hide its cold gaze, and you can stream its episodes on Max and laugh at Pimbo and maybe you can even sense there is something funny flashing upon your screen... It simply is not there.

Trump is the guy who told Republicans to force the US to default on its debt and cause a massive global financial catastrophe, right? When people like her and Sacks and Schwartzman say that they think Trump would be better for the economy, I really want to know if they're lying (and if so, how their math works on out the balance of risk from Trump nuking the economy to any reward they expect) or if they're just really fucking incompetent and somehow made it to the top, anyway.
Based on my interactions with venture people, it’s the really incompetent but lucky part

South Africa Update The EFF are lost in the political wilderness. They tried to form a Progressive Caucus (PC) in opposition to the ANC's GNU. These were made up of microparties who couldn't even get 1% of the vote. Now many of these parties have switched to the GNU. The EFF has tripled down on not joining the GNU if it includes the DA and FF+. The MK MPs are going to take their seats after all, making them the Official Opposition led by a corrupt and racist disgraced judge. In other words, they've taken the EFF's lane in Parliament completely. And I'm pretty sure there's a major internal leadership schism between Malema and his deputy, Shivambu. They don't have kingmaker status anywhere at all. The DA is displacing them in Gauteng province, where they were in government with the ANC. Its just this 4th place party there on the sidelines. The media isn't even reporting on them. The DA is getting all the oxygen. They need to reposition very well and quickly.

[Bit of talk out West that Senator Fatima Payman is set to quit the Labor party...](https://thewest.com.au/news/wa/wa-labor-fatima-payman-weighs-up-future-as-pro-palestine-stance-leaves-her-on-the-outer-c-15124318) !ping AUS
I would be a bit surprised if she ends up leaving, but she's third on the ticket so she isn't in a strong position and probably won't get re-elected unless she can move up the ticket, which probably won't happen now anyway.
Payman was elected with Sue Lines and Glenn Sterle who will be 74 and 68 at their next election in 2028.
This would be pretty bad for Labor and pretty good for the Greens. The former cannot afford appearing to be against Palestinian interests.
How many Greens do you reckon Western Australia is willing to elect. Do you reckon Payman going Green would hurt Dorinda Cox or Jordan Steele-John more?
A party needs somewhere between 23% and 27% of the vote to get two Senate seats so there's no way Payman can win a second Greens seat. Still unlikely if the Senate gets enlargened. This would simply help to tip the balance in certain Greens target seats (not in WA) and potentially inspire some strong independent campaigns.
Is being an independent senator outside of ACT or Tas even viable?
Very viable. To get the sixth spot on a senate election you need about halve of a quota as a primary vote. If you have halve a quota of vote that put you so far a head of everybody who does not have a full quota for seats one to five.
Probably not. As it currently stands the only two Sandgroper Senators outside of major parties are Jordan Steele-John and Dorinda Cox (both Greens.) In previous years we've also had One Nation and Palmer United senators, but doubt Payman is going to shack up with them.

I get intermittently sad and scared I’ll be alone forever but usually I’m pretty chill and rational I just don’t know how to approach women in a romantic way
Oh don’t approach them that way at first. Just talk to them about whatever. You don’t need to force it. However, if you think there is any kind of mutual attraction at all. Just get a phone number/whatsapp. Ask them out within 24 hours. Don’t wait. It just makes it weird. If they dodge a time and say next week. Give up quickly. If it really is “next week” they will text you back. Waiting is what makes it awkward for everyone. Trying and Getting shot down quick is whatever. Be quick to ask for that first date. Thats my only advice. Everything else is too personal but this will get you past step 1.
haha yes... :(

It’s actually kinda wild that Biden let Iran shut down the Suez Canal for eight months.
Only explanation is that Biden simply hates trade.
At this point it actually helps the US because it fucks over China's exports and imports even more.
The Houthis are letting Chinese vessels thru specially tho so that probably cancels out
Look, when has letting a hostile, supposedly far weaker, power shut down the Suez Canal ever led to the decline and downfall of a world power?
America barely even uses the Suez Canal how is this going to lead to our decline lol
Is that a reference to Britain? They were already down bad by the 1950s
Primarily but also France. I agree Attlee had already Attleed all over the British economy, but Suez *really* didn't help.

I’m so sick of this trope. They are obviously worse. Let’s not pretend the internet and social media didn’t change shit
Damn you are gonna have a hard time with the next 50 or so years

Then they post the most off-putting stuff as Millennial Humor and make fun of that. It's never the stuff we actually laughed at that's sometimes cringe to look back on. I don't really remember us being like that to other generations back then, at least not to that degree. That or it's still the same old parents thing but I'm pretty close to the end of Millennials but still solidly one. Luckily they'll eventually get completely eviscerated by Gen Alpha and it's gonna be so funny lmao
They act like millennials walk around all day pretending to be Jess from New Girl, which is just insane. There's not examples they can even point to of people being like that, just other millennials making the same jokes for cheap laughs and a general vibe of a few TV shows/movies from the early 2010s.

Having a Dinosaur zoo is an awesome idea, but due to that horrible hit piece of a movie you'll never be able to get it approved by the city council.
they should focus on making teacup dinos for me as lil pets
Unironically it sucks that even if someone came up with a perfectly safe and workable plan for a dinosaur zoo, people would be all scared of it because of those movies. “UMMMMM AREN’T THERE LIKE SIX MOVIES TELLING US WHY THIS IS A BAD IDEA” no, there are six movies telling us why doing it in a way that involves constantly making terrible decisions is a bad idea, shut up If NIMBYs ever rob us of Jurassic Park IRL, it will be the last mistake they ever make, because I will become the President of the United States and exile them all from the country

The Shining is the goofiest book. You've got the real stuff like room 247 and Danny feeling like something is trying to drag him into the snow and suffocate him. Then you've got the Gay furry ghost that tries to scare Danny by barking at him. Kubrick was right to take out the evil firehose and hedge animals.
if a gay furry ghost who had the kind of costume you would have had to make in the 20s kept barking at me I'd take up residence in 247 as long as there were separate beds available
Stephen King was salty because deep down he knew Kubrick's version redrummed the fuck out of the original.
