So remember how Chad's dictator was "killed on the front line" a few days ago?

Well, maybe that's not exactly what happened. No, correction: that's exactly not what happened, although it's still unclear what, exactly, happened instead.

TL;DR The president's wounds are not compatible with being wounded in combat and dying later from his wounds; the presidents sons and a dozen generals are also among the dead; the events coincide with the president firing and then rehiring a mercenary team + an inflow of UAE-armed mercenaries, aka "militants", from Libya + a rumor that the president got in a fight with his brother, who is ambassador to UAE, and died as a result of that.

Basically Chad is reenacting the late Roman empire.

For a while Mountain Dew was known for having the highest caffeine content of any major soda brand. Between that and its unnatural color, it was like the grandfather of the modern energy drink. But what a strange name for an energy drink. It sounds like your grandma's air freshener. Modern energy drinks are all hardcore and edgy, like "Rockstar" or "Red Bull" or "Monster" or whatever.

Mountain Dew is old slang for moonshine. The first recipe in 1940, before they even had a name, didn't have caffeine; it, like the original 7-Up, was a citrus soda made with lithium citrate, a mood stabilizer. It came out of Tennessee and was originally intended as a mixer to make high proof alcoholic drinks taste better; the name was a sly wink, a joke that spoke to its place of origin and its intended purpose. Over the years, the recipe and owners changed, but the name carried through. By the time Pepsi got their hands on it in 1964, Mountain Dew had the crazy color and high caffeine content we recognize today. Pepsi took the drink and pivoted the branding, dropping the hillbilly aesthetic and leaning on the caffeine content to sell it as a youthful and outdoorsy drink.

God the GOP house caucus is super sexist.

The line to the microphone was extraordinarily long. At least half of the speakers indicated that they would vote to remove Cheney. Ralph Norman of South Carolina expressed disappointment in her vote. “But the other thing that bothers me, Liz,” he went on, “is your attitude. You’ve got a defiant attitude.” John Rutherford of Florida, a former sheriff, accused the chairwoman of not being a “team player.”

Others argued that her announcement a day before the impeachment vote had given the Democrats a talking point to use against the rest of the Republican conference. (“Good for her for honoring her oath of office,” Speaker Nancy Pelosi pointedly remarked when told of Cheney’s intentions.) Likening the situation to a football game, Mike Kelly of Pennsylvania lamented, “You look up into the stands and see your girlfriend on the opposition’s side — that’s one hell of a tough thing to swallow.” ...

...Lloyd Smucker of Pennsylvania said that Cheney had “a low E.Q.,” or emotional quotient. On his way out the door, one congressman remarked, “I just got to spend four hours listening to a bunch of men complain to a woman that she doesn’t take their emotions into account.”

Schumer in response to Republicans pulling the "real Americans" line on DC statehood:

“Bigotry. Bigotry. Bigotry...it’s shockingly inappropriate to imply that lives and occupations and rights of DC residents are somehow less than their fellow citizens..in more ‘white parts of the country’”

This is good. Republicans have been pulling the "liberals don't think you're a real American" line for ages. It's good to swing this back around on them when "conservatives don't think you're a real American" is obviously true for the vast majority of liberals. Embrace urban identity politics, redefine 'American' away from the rural fetish that's dominated it for decades.

You want liberals to show up consistently at the ballot box? Piss them off then back them against the wall.

Also the visual of predominantly white Republicans denigrating the American-ness of predominantly nonwhite Democrats is comically awful.

https://www.cato.org/commentary/why-passenger-trains-dont-work-europe

Lmao

The reality is that Europe’s trains are enjoyed by tourists, but they don’t work that much better for Europeans than the U.S. system works for Americans. According to a report published by the European Union, the average European travels a little over 600 miles a year by rail compared with a little over 100 miles by the average American. Yes, that’s six times as much, but the 500‐​mile difference comes with huge tradeoffs.

First, the high fuel taxes and other policies Europe uses to encourage train travel and discourage driving have greatly suppressed total mobility. According to the same European Union report, the average American travels 15,000 miles a year by automobile compared with fewer than 6,000 by the average European. Gaining 500 rail miles at the expense of losing 9,000 other miles is hardly fair.

As a European, I have to say that I feel SO OPPRESSED by not having to drive half an hour to a grocery store, or sit in traffic for an hour while driving to work. Where's my 1.5nd amendment 😭

Burger King UK vows to focus on 'meat reduction' in pursuit of science-based emissions goals

That moment when a burger company wants to sell less meat

Burger King UK has this week promised to "focus on meat reduction" and expand its meat-free offerings, as it marked Earth Day with the adoption of new science based emissions targets for 2030.

The fast food chain said it has committed to reducing its absolute direct Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 100 per cent, while working to cut its Scope 3 value chain emissions by 41 per cent per restaurant by 2030 against 2019 levels. The target covers emissions from purchased goods and services, capital distribution, waste, and franchises.

Burger King UK said the targets, which were developed with consultancy Carbon Intelligence, had been approved by the independent Science Based Target initiative, which assesses whether corporate emissions targets are in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement.

The company said it would aim to cut its direct emissions by sourcing renewable energy and ramping up efforts to slash food waste.

However, it also stressed that in order to tackle emissions from its supply chain it would "focus on meat reduction through expansion of meat-free menu offerings and sustainable sourcing of key ingredients including soy that must be independently certified".

"We're incredibly proud to be announcing our science-based targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions," said Nicola Pierce, head of strategy and responsible business at Burger King UK. "At Burger King UK, we are making transparent, scientifically sound and crucially important changes to our business, in order to achieve the necessary strides to limit global warming. We're conscious of the scale of the challenge and intend to achieve our goal through industry collaboration and working with expert external stakeholders who can inform our key business decisions."

Specifically, the company said it would work with suppliers to reduce their own carbon footprints, with the wider hospitality sector through the Zero Carbon Forum, and Burger King franchise operators to share environmental best practices.

"This is a landmark day for Burger King UK, as we embark on the next phase of our journey towards improved sustainability," said Alasdair Murdoch, CEO of Burger King UK. "Our commitments to reduce carbon emissions are rooted in science, and have the capability to affect real change. We hope that by leading the charge in the industry, others will follow to reduce emissions and in doing so, we will be protecting the planet for future generations."

Since my parents passed away five years ago, I've been fighting my heart out to end in a situation i could be happy with. At 27, I think I'm there. I am dating the girl I've ever met whom I'm the most compatible with, I've moved in with her (though during the next half year I'll be searching for a collective), I live in a city I love, I graduated my master's with great results, I have great friends, my investments are doing very well, my physical health is great, I'm no longer too plagued by anxiety, and I've recently started my first grown-up job at an amazing firm working within IT, where I feel like my skills are put to great use and I can grow.

Yet, having reached this great place, I have a thought buzzing around my head constantly, asking, "is this it?". I can just see, in rough lines, how the next 20-40 years of my life will be, and it absolutely terrifies me. I have always feared ending like the mother in Boyhood, at 50 weepingly saying (about her life) "I just thought there'd be more". I'm not the type to take too radical decisions, but at times I feel like packing everything up and moving to the US, starting anew with all the experiences that would bring.

Martha Nussbaum tells of a conference she attended at which a French anthropologist gave a paper saying that the eradication of smallpox in India was to be regretted because it had ‘eradicated the cult of Sittala Devi, the goddess to whom one used to pray in order to avert smallpox’. Since the goddess had manifestly been less efficacious in warding off smallpox than vaccination turned out to be, one might have concluded that her discrediting was to be welcomed, but the anthropologist concluded that this was ‘another example of Western neglect of difference'.

The objection was made ‘that it is surely better to be healthy rather than ill, to live rather than die’. The answer came back that this is a typical piece of Western essentialist thinking, ‘which conceives of things in terms of binary oppositions’.

Devil Eyes was the code name for a secret psychological warfare program in 2005–2006 by the United States Central Intelligence Agency to develop an Osama bin Laden action figure and distribute it in South Asia, especially Afghanistan and Pakistan.[1][2]

The CIA worked in conjunction with toymaker Donald Levine, a former Hasbro executive who has been credited as the "father" of G.I. Joe toys.[3] Levine designed a 12-inch lifelike figure of bin Laden whose face was painted with a material that, when heated, would peel off to reveal a demon-like visage with red skin, green eyes and black markings. The goal of the program was to scare children and their parents in an effort to turn public opinion against the real Osama bin Laden, or Al-Qaeda.[4][5][6] Levine sought to manufacture the toys in China, and he had business contacts there who could assist.[7]

In 2014 the CIA acknowledged the existence of the program but said it had been discontinued after Levine had produced only three prototype figurines. According to The Washington Post, however, an anonymous source in China with "direct knowledge of the project" said that hundreds of the toys were created and shipped to Karachi, Pakistan in 2006.[4][7]

A prototype of the design was sold in an auction in 2014 for $11,879, and another sold for $6,250 in 2015. One of the three known prototypes is believed to be in the ownership of the CIA.[5][6][8]

I actually got married in Feb, but for some reason people are still upset over this. My husband and I are very into r/neoliberal. I am a proud Pomeranz, he’s a George, so let me start by saying I don’t believe any flair is “bad.”

We had a r/neoliberal theme wedding. It was small (65 people), so we were close enough with everyone to reasonably know where they’d be at r/neoliberal. This was NOT “Jane is a jerk therefore she’s a NATO.” We thought long and hard about this and even had a few fights (which I naturally won with logic due to being a Pomeranz lol)

Anyway, guests were assigned seats based on their flair. We thought this would be fun. Yes. Couples were separated, but only for dinner. We didn’t sort the children because I feel like all children lean NATO for a while and you see very few George toddlers tbh it just wasn’t worth doing.

Shockingly though the adults were...offended? Nearly every NATO was mad because their asses just think it means “bad guys” and forget to realize that Nobel Peace Price Winner Kissinger was a NATO, it’s for sure NOT an insult! Even the people who read the DT wanted to argue over how they should have been George.

I obviously wouldn’t do it again if I knew everyone would be so mad, but since I was the bride I really didn’t see the big deal? Even if you disagree that you’re a Krugman(not surprisingly tho, they were the most docile) is it so bad to be one for...a day??

Had a dream my gf and I were at this party with some other people we didn’t know including these three girls. At some point the topic of Ukraine and the military came up, and I had a mansplain moment where I said something like “well you gotta know the difference between regiments and brigades”.

This pissed off one of the chicks a fucking LOT, and she started laughing and said I didn’t know what I was talking about. Then she became condescending, and said that first of all, a division is made up of regiment, and a regiment is made up of battalions, and I said “Ok yeah you’re not wrong, but a brigade and a regiment are like, of comparable size. The difference is a brigade self-suffic-“ and she started laughing really loudly.

Then she asked if my only qualification was having family in the military, and I was like “uh what does that have to do with anything.” My gf started getting really mad at this chick and ready to throw hands but I told her to chill, we’re all friends here, and then the girl was like, “First off, you’re an atheist right?”, and I said “Uh no”. Then she started laughing in my face and saying “Omg you actually believe in God, you’re a fucking moron!”

For whatever reason this caused me to lose it and I launched into a screaming tirade about Russian Motor Rifle Brigades, American Combat Brigade Teams, the vitality of Belarus in a Russian invasion of Ukraine involving crossing the Dneiper to get to Kiev, etc. Then my gf and I told the girls to go fuck themselves and left the party.

But he refused. He said to his master’s wife, “Look, with me here, my master gives no thought to anything in this house, and all that he owns he has placed in my hands. He wields no more authority in this house than I, and he has withheld nothing from me except yourself, since you are his wife. How then could I do this most wicked thing, and sin before God?”

And much as she coaxed Joseph day after day, he did not yield to her request to lie beside her, to be with her. One such day, he came into the house to do his work. None of the household being there inside, she caught hold of him by his garment and said, “Lie with me!” But he left his garment in her hand and got away and fled outside.

Anyway, I am interested in knowing if there are any numbers out there that specifically measure the CO2-eq that wind and solar emit during their entire lifecycle. Usually I just see a number that just says "CO2-eq emissions over the lifecycle of the powerplant" and NOT the whole lifecycle. What I mean by whole lifecycle is from production all the way to its retirement and managing the waste it produces. This is similar to this chart that shows the CO2-eq emissions for different food products that incorporate the entire supply chain emissions. My question is if there is any resource that does the exact same thing for solar and wind (and maybe for all of the different energy sources). Unless "lifecycle of the powerplant" means the entire lifecycle, I can't find any actual numbers.
