Had anyone actually seen him since the mutiny? Or is this just Russian way to tie up loose ends…

Trump gutted the EPA. Chevron is, it seems, taking full advantage of the weakened watchdog.

BBC article dances all around but does not say it was suicide. No outlet has said it was suicide. (It was most probably suicide.)

The Age of Plastics, y’all.

That ship has sailed … it is this way. Adapt or die.

This is how you fix stupid amirite?!?

CNN’s credibility is pretty questionable these days … I’ll wait for better vetted evidence, thanks (and, from the sounds coming outta Mr. Smith’s office, there’s plenty).

AP https://apnews.com/ and Reuters https://www.reuters.com/ are centrist news feeds that are reliable and valid sources used by all mainstream media who then put their own spin on the facts (which AP and Reuters do not).

Star Trek TOS. I’ll boldly go with that, thanks.

It should have been avoided. Facts tell us very clearly it could not have been: there has been zero regulatory appetite for this activity, in the U.S. or elsewhere. And adventure-seekers will amuse themselves even at the expense of other’s lives. Amoral profiteers abound. Caveat Emptor.

I live in a rural area without broadband access. Any quality broadband access. During the pandemic, kids sat in their parents’ cars (typically after they got home from work) to do their remote-learning homework in front of the public library to get free access to decent connection speeds AND access the library files electronically (for California check here https://www.library.ca.gov/services/to-libraries/ebooks-for-all/ - every state has an equivalent ). People, including kids, check out books (and periodicals) electronically 24/7.

Publicly funded but not for the public.

And before anyone makes a comment about the unhoused probably not paying taxes … neither do any of the children or retirees who use the service every single day of the year.

We’ve pretty much just abandoned any concept of citizenship or civic responsibility…
