Can anyone explain why we care?
I’m out of the loop
Thank you Comrade Shark Fucker
I’ve heard this phrased as Wizard vs Prophet

I can’t believe they’d make this comic
Who publishes Superman?
I think that’s a valid opinion to have but also the person could have just been a bit glib and not careful with their words
They’re a commenter on Lemmy, not a politician. I don’t expect them to always have well crafted takes
I think you’re being downvoted a bit unfairly because you’re strictly correct
That said, fossil fuel companies also spend a considerable amount of money and effort keeping us dependent on oil
The Drilled podcast and Climate Town have both done excellent reporting on this
This is from the 2016 Flintstones comic and it’s WILD

I’m partial to a regular old mace
Nice and simple, very swingy

I just started biking again so I might be a bit naive
Hopefully things keep improving. I’m definitely in favor of Dutch style transportation
I suspect that’s true if only because most us cities haven’t improved at all
Boston is putting in a bunch of bike lanes but most of them aren’t protected
That said, the North end has a wonderful separated bike lane. Same as the seaport
Except for a stretch by long wharf I can just about bike the entire way using separated bike lanes if I don’t mind going out of my way a little bit
The more of this kind of small vehicle traffic we get the better supported it is. Safer traffic patterns, dedicated lanes, repair stores and vendors, etc.
I think you’re also seeing some political organizing to that front, too. Cambridge MA has a biking advocacy group putting pressure on government to put in more biking infrastructure.
Big car might have a stranglehold on big government but people paying attention to small local elections can make a big difference

None that specialize in them so most aren’t good tick deterrents
True possum memes are cooler than ones that are misinformed!
They also don’t eat ticks

Robert Jackson Bennett’s Founder Series is a meditation on Big tech and the magic system is primarily based on enchanting objects to the point where the most powerful people in the world are master engineers and the people who control them
Highly recommended
Brain half the size of its body AND three legs?!
It’s the ubermouse!
Can they really get out THAT many calories from a gram of Uranium?! That’s insane!
I wish I cared more and would verify it
