Their panic takes two forms, one more apocalyptic than the other.
The first is the sobering realization that if there were wider public awareness of climate change it would mean that people would expect their governments to "do something" and this would disrupt a balance of power that is currently working for them.
The more extreme version of this panic is a kind of bunker mentality.
There will be more refugees in the future, not fewer. Food prices will be higher.
If anyone tells you that they can explain all of the craziness of the world in a single theory be skeptical. The world is complex and many factors drive history.
I do think there is one vector of pressure that we don't talk about directly very often that is playing a role in a lot of political edginess. From nativism, to the rightward swing of the UK and US the silent actor is climate change.
Because at this point wealthy people know that it is real and I think some of them are panicking.
I am uncomfortable.
I really love that fountain. 
You should use the #FiberArts tag it's what all of the spinners, weavers, crocheters and knitters seem to use the most on here. 
Can we uh... get some tapes of this? Forgive me for not trusting a transcript.
Not that it matters much. We can clear this all up by releasing the files just as the victims have called for.
I was torn about fixing it in my alt text...
Nothing to see here!
Maxwell, who is now in a nicer prison after a highly irregular transfer that required a change of the rules, was quoted as saying the following in the transcript given to the press of her meeting with Trump's former personal lawyer and DOJ Deputy AG, Todd.
She also says there are no prominent individuals involved in the crimes.
Well I think THAT about wraps it all up, don't you?
Ok it's mostly republicans
I'm the simple fool over here trying to make a "friends list" I do not get it.
Trump's "Enemies List" is all republicans. Which is both funny and ominous. So maybe he does have something in common with neoliberals (whose enemies are all sincere liberals)

Very cyber.
Attached: 1 image @alter_kaker@hachyderm.io @liferstate@mas.to This logo is being pushed as a story about "conservatives are mad about it" (are they really? Hm.) and to conservatives as "the left did this?" (No.) This isn't politically aligned. It's corporate, soulless. You can get a car in any color you like as long as it is gray. Every apartment has white walls. It's a design trend driven by sanding down the texture of everything so it can be monetized. The old logo is brimming with *diversity* and character.

Mamdani just won a primary the election still has not happened. (And there is no reason to think it will be easy)
Having a digital version is a simple step. My nephew reads a lot but needs documents where one can zoom in on the text to make it bigger.
For once can the streak of meanness and lack of basic human compassion in that man's heart work to do something positive.
This story is wild. I worry about how it might make some crazy people... more crazy. But also.
Are they gonna charge this guy or nah?

Dana Sibera wasn't trying to be a product designer! I was cautionary art!
Well I think they are upset because that sense of safety has just been shaken a little. And of course the people will rise up and Be Outraged(tm) about this and it will stop.
When really this is the new normal.
Welcome!

Don't forget Amazon. It can be a little tricky to shop, but I manage.
So where are you getting paper towels and kitty litter now?
