@DrJBhattacharya thanks for responding. Few more points. Happy to agree to disagree. You mention topics that I consider to be part of the science advise process, and topics more related to the policy arena and how that works. Sorry, long thread, lost the blue button
I read that your criticism focusses a lot on the second argument and agree evaluation is important. Now there, I think this is very different in different countries, although the same trend (scientists that felt left out) is clear in many places.
I personally believe in the process of evidence synthesis from multiple sources, while maintaining the need for speed. That is how I saw this done in several countries in Europe, with often a key spokesperson conveying the conclusions to policy makers.
Me in 2023: "If Millennials think we're having a hard time now, the madness & the chaos that would be unleashed in a 2nd Trump presidency would be unmatched by any other point in American history, & I think that none of us want to live through that"
You can see my eye twitching.

Anthony Davis: He knows he's 'Above the Law' and he kind of is.
Me: He kind of is. He kind of is. I mean, when you think about an equivalent, you could think about someone like Elon Musk.

A big thanks to Rupert Read for sharing this. This is the latest in a long line of reports, highlighting the the unsustainability of our present system, and that serious problems lie ahead. Last week, we had the Nature Security Assessment on biodiversity.

There is nothing particularly new about this, there is a long line of similar such assessments, by all manner of institutions, from military, government, corporate, financial institutions going back decades.
All are essentially ignored by governments, our politicians.

Here's the outline of assessment by UK Intelligence services, on the threats from biodiversity collapse, ecosystem collapse. Apparently it is redacted.
I'll put a link to the government website below.

Bitcoin is great money, but using it privately and instantly is still hard for normal users.
That’s where Cashu wallets and Chaumian e‑cash come in: Bitcoin‑backed “digital cash” with strong privacy and lightning‑like UX.

Cashu is an open‑source Chaumian e‑cash protocol built on Bitcoin and Lightning.
Instead of on‑chain UTXOs in your wallet, you hold anonymous “tokens” that are always redeemable for sats at a Cashu mint.

We have been glad to see the backlash against surrogacy this weekend.
We welcome our new followers and know many of you are new to the cause of surrogacy abolition.
Here’s a🧵below to help you spread the word with politicians and friends.

Here’s a🧵below to help you spread the word with politicians and friends.
Everyone should know that surrogacy is banned in all forms in Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Sweden, Finland, Austria, Poland, Switzerland, China, Japan and many more countries.
The US is unusual in having such a liberal commercial surrogacy operation in most states.

Aria the Animation #04

This is the first episode to really lean into magical realism. Fittingly, the boards immediately draw attention with jarring chiaroscuro architectural framing & soft-focus backgrounds that prioritize mood over detail. +

This is also the first anime-original episode, and while I wouldn't say the show was ever afraid to step away from the margins in service of the different medium, you can definitely feel a unique Sato-esque pacing to this episode with more immersive visual flow.
This episode still has plenty of the crisp, Venetian Renaissance architecture the show is known for, with layered backgrounds and strong silhouettes, but the atmospheric use of colors still presides over nearly every shot, especially in the A part.
Those Shit eaters are brothers of Muslims. Their commander lives in Szczecin.
He is from Syria. His name is Kesra Nermend. This Syrian is the real owner of the Police of Poland.
He is an Islamist and his presence in Poland is to slaughter Polish people.
The police of Poland support terrorism.
See how the symbol of shit eating is the same symbol of the Police of Poland.

@KamraciRodacy In case anyone is a brainwashed person and is in love or worshipping Muslims.
Here is the direct command of Islam which is the Quran (5:51-52) orders them to not make friends from Christians and just deceive them:

California's Central Valley produces 80% of the world's almonds. Each almond requires 3.2 gallons of actual irrigation water to grow. Not rainfall. Actual tap water pumped from aquifers.
One gallon of almond milk requires 162 gallons of irrigation water. Compare that to dairy milk at 8 gallons of tap water per gallon, with the rest being rainfall that falls on pasture anyway.
But here's where it gets properly grim. Almonds bloom for exactly three weeks in February. During those three weeks, California needs every pollinating bee in North America transported to the Central Valley or the crop fails entirely.
Commercial beekeepers truck in 31 billion honeybees. That's two-thirds of America's entire managed bee population, all concentrated in one valley for three weeks. The bees are packed into trucks, driven across the country, dumped into almond groves drenched in pesticides, worked to exhaustion, then packed up and shipped to the next crop.
The mortality rate is catastrophic. Beekeepers report losing 30 to 50% of their hives annually. That's billions of bees dead. Not from natural causes. From being used as disposable pollination machines for your almond milk.
The pesticides don't help. Almond groves are sprayed with neonicotinoids which scramble bee navigation systems, fungicides which weaken their immune systems, and herbicides which eliminate the wildflowers they'd normally forage on between almond blooms.
Meanwhile the aquifer depletion is permanent. The Central Valley has sunk 28 feet in some areas from groundwater extraction. That water took 10,000 years to accumulate. It's being drained in decades for almond milk.
Your vegan latte killed more bees and used more water than a year's worth of dairy milk. But it's got "plant-based" on the label so you're definitely saving the planet.
