Midnight Meme Of The Day!
*by Noah* When you read tonight's meme, you will know why the president who hates everything that lives and breathes did everything he could to create safe passage for a pandemic. Not caring about others lies at the root of what it is to be a Republican. It's who they are and they are remarkably consistent. Trump's gutting of funds for anti-plague programs was just another illustration of his and their psychopathic contempt for others. I can't wait to hear who Trump blames when White House staffers start dropping like flies. Donnie Head Case even ended international programs star... more »

Another Go-Round?
Some people believe in reincarnation. I don't because it's sort of a vanity thing to me. Most of the people I've known who have been big in to that philosophy have been famous people. None of them were ditch diggers in Montenegro, or night soil collectors in India. Now if I'm reincarnated, I'm sure that I'll feel differently about it all. I'd really hate to be reincarnated into a situation that I presently disdain. I can't see me as a Beto O'Rorque. It would lead to an early suicide in the hopes of a better outcome the next time around. I can't imagine being reincarnated a... more »

The Carbon Capture Con
Media Release/Opinion Piece Climate Sceptics Blog *The Carbon Capture Con * *by Viv Forbes* *6 March 2020* Carbon-capture-and-storage “(CCS)” tops the list of silly schemes “to reduce man-made global warming”.
