Betting on other government actions is dangerous too, because it can offer magats the temptation to burn down good government.

Extreme weather and extreme climate are *attacks on our soil. They are a call to mobilize.* But governments today are barely beginning to mobilize for full action to slow and stop the slowly developing climate disaster.

I conjecture that the reason they don't do this is the presence of a highly influential group of traitors: the fossil fuel industry.

*Human-driven climate crisis fuels Canada’s deadly wildfires, study finds.*

All of this measures the rapidity of potentially dangerous ecosystem changes caused by global heating.

Underlying the random fluctuation from year to year, the trend (as long as global heating continues) is to get worse.

George Monbiot: *Murderous heat, an endangered food supply and no [efforts to slow the disaster]: this is the life the radical right wants you to have.

If so, it will mean that the disasters that climate scientists have forecast for many years are arriving.

However, they made an exception for the audience at Taylor Swift's wedding, apparently because she had the clout to demand this.

People must be free to take photos in public places occasionally and publish them. But no one, and especially no business or organization or government, should be allowed to systematically record everyone that passes before a camera and put the records into a internet-connected system.

Focusing on "affordability" of everyday life is partly a mistake, and partly a response to pressure from billionaires who figure that will lead towards weak palliative measures rather to any big change to transfer wealth.

The increasing cost of living is a consequence of deeper injustices, one of which is the growing cost of climate disaster (including food plagued by agricultural failure). Another is the growing cost of medical treatment, which stems largely from the big role of businesses in it. Another is the long and slow shift that leaves the non-rich with less and less of society's productive capacity.

This is a victory, even though it only prevents a plan to make things worse.

The supposed "need" for restricting the right to a jury was a shortage of funds. I think Burnham has some plan to increase taxes on non-poor people so as to pay for this and other things to make the UK better.

If we are unable to grow enough food, or if calamities substantially reduce the life expectancy, it is going to be hard for anything to be stable or predictable.

What we need to make sure of is that the billionaires won't be able to insulate themselves (and their servants) from sharing the fate the impose on us. And that they know they won't be able to.

It is not a simple matter to draw up a contract that will prevent the buyer of a company, or of a program, from slipping out of agreements to follow ethical standards by transferring control in increments.

A few decades ago, antiracists understood the word as an unjust insult — when it was meant to characterize someone. But people could contemplate the word in the abstract, and discuss its meaning and implications (such as, a racist attitude) without losing their wits. They could criticize the word's racist attitude without terror of violating the taboo if they said which word they were criticizing. If they heard a touretter say it, and understood that the touretter did not mean to characterize anyone with it, they did not hold that against per.

The change to regard the word "nigger" as a shocking profanity rather than as an unjust racist attack has made it harder for society to cope with situations like this one, and harder to clearly express condemnation of racism.

Is this a scandal? I don't think so. The scandal is that they would tell you a lower price, not including the junk fees, then charge you a higher price which includes the junk fees. Now they have to be more honest about the real price.

If we want to do something about the high price of concerts, we should adopt strict laws against overconsolidation of industry, and break up businesses that are too big. This would include the Ticketmaster/Live Nation near-monopoly and many others that mergers have created in the past few decades.

The corrupter's henchmen are encouraging new monopolies.

The promises are a sham because they are only temporary — if the Senate approves Blanche, he and the corrupter can cancel these promises and approve the deal anyway.

Such a prosecution ought to regularly follow their crimes, but instead it is news, because Israel generally protects those killers.
