U.S. climate report warns of dire changes by 2050
Not good news for the climate, and yet Trump is in full denial mode. Not sure how you deny the work of so many respected institutions and scientists.
“Even before its release, Trump was attacking climate change science this week as cold temperatures bore down on the East Coast, tweeting on Wednesday, “Whatever happened to Global Warming?” (Weather and climate are different things, scientists frequently point out.)
The new report, which Congress requires to be issued every four years, was released by U.S. Global Change Research Program. It is the product of 300 scientific experts under the guidance of a 60-member federal advisory committee, and it was open to review by the public, 13 federal agencies and a panel at the National Academy of Sciences.”

Hillary Clinton says EU leaders need to ‘say they can’t help refugees’ in order to quell populism
Wow. “Quell populism” by refusing to help refugees? You sound like a fucking republican, Hill. Happy Thanksgiving to you, too.

Creepy or Not, Face Scans Are Speeding up Airport Security
We know that China is using this technology to track it’s citizens and, more importantly, enforce travel restrictions at Chinese government discretion. The “creepy” of this is about the possibility that our government could do the same…and given the current shaky state of things, so much could go wrong simply because this capability exists.

Ohio considers total ban on abortion and death penalty for women found guilty
Wow. Every day I read the news, and it seems like every day there’s something that just makes me go, “Where the fuck am I?”, because THIS America…this current iteration of an otherwise pretty good idea, is NOT America. THIS America is not a beacon of liberty, but a bastion of bigotry. So called “conservatives” are really just paranoid, reactionary fools who cannot embrace change, even when it is necessary.
The first amendment requires that religion must remain OUT of American politics, and yet a few dedicated and well funded zealots, persist in their quest to make America in THEIR own god’s image. A few so called Christians are so full of fear for the afterlife that they believe they have the right to KILL in order to protect their “values” from destruction.
When really, it’s their own fears that they should be battling. Fear that their repressive, judgemental views will be exposed, and that people will see that Jesus is not with them. They are not real Christians. Christians are supposed to be like Christ. So…What would Jesus do?
Jesus was a social liberator who sided with the downtrodden. Jesus condemned the leadership of the temple and government for their sins of greed and oppression. Jesus healed the sick and spoke about treating each other well, without judgement or hatred. Jesus didn’t speak out against gays or foreigners. Jesus was not a hypocrite who bent the truth and manipulated the masses to ensure he remained in power…Jesus spoke the truth, and people followed.
So they killed him. For protesting the status quo. For saying that the ones in power were NOT RIGHT. He was put to death by a corrupt regime.
Me…I’d rather try to live my life like Jesus, and speak out against corruption and the exploitation of the weak by the powerful. I’d rather try to be more like Jesus…well, except for the whole “on the cross experience”… than be a so-called “Christian”. Beware of the wolves in sheep’s clothing.
