How long do we think it's gonna be till James Somerton turns right-wing grifter? The people he stole from will likely never see a single cent, but his career is fucked. Within a month, all he'll be left with is name recognition and the fact that a ton of leftists hate him. He could just take the money and run, but given what he was willing to do to get this far, I get the feeling he'd rather not lose his fame.

Let's look at Rowling for a moment. She had all the money she could ever hope to get from her books. She could have simply taken the money and settled down, but she didn't want to. She wanted relevance. Before she started hanging out with fascists though, she tried to become a celebrity of her idea of the left.

Remember those couple of years where she was constantly announcing random characters were gay? The obvious pandering to the left? The "at least one Jewish student at hogwarts"? The weirdly graphic description she gave of Dumbledore's gay sex life despite never even hinting at it in the books? Making Hermione black despite specifically writing her as white?

What I'm saying is, she tried to pander to the left and it failed because everyone could see it was pandering. So what did she do? She started pandering to the right. The right is fine with pandering as long as they're the ones being appealed to. And look at her now, we can't go a week without hearing about some fucked up thing she did, and the right loves her for it.

All of this is to say that Somerton is gonna have a realization that he's been grifting the wrong audience. His one honest trait is his hatred of women and that'll work perfectly for appealing to incels. Just watch as he spins this as the left turning on him and pushing him to the right. He's gonna join the Blair White school of being "one of the good ones"

We live in an extremely stupid timeline where "our water bottles won't poison you" is an actual flex a brand can make. Good for Hydroflask I guess, but I feel like this should be taken for granted.

by far the most existential and depressing sentence i've ever read in a scientific/academic paper (paper is about coral reef bleaching due to increased ocean temperatures) [bolding by me]:

We chose A. hyacinthus for this study because it is a dominant reef-builder and is especially sensitive to environmental stress, making its relative ability to acclimate or adapt extremely important to the future of coral reef ecosystems as climate change proceeds. 

DOI 10.1126/science.1251336

like this paper was published almost ten years ago. these fucking corporations and governments and billionaires are just letting this shit happen. instead of dealing with the fossil fuels, we're trying to see if we can move coral colonies into hotter water to try and make them acclimate so they don't completely die off. what the fuck. what the fuck. like certainly there is an easier solution than "modify all the plants and animals and/or their habitats" here??? but nah. capitalism needs its pound of flesh.

google has been stopping me from searching with a VPN for a few weeks now. It's what initially got me to switch to Firefox, but that didn't fix it. Tried logging out. Deleting cookies. A few other little hacks. Nope! It wants me to do a captcha and select motorbikes every time I try to google song lyrics (or anything else). Fed up with it. Firefox says it's because google isn't a 'secure site' because they're trying to track me. No shit sherlock. That's why I've got the VPN.

Anyway just started using Bing today and I hate it but what can you do? At least I don't have to solve 3 captchas to get their damn site to load.

I hate how they're just killing the internet now—strangling it to shake a little change out of our pockets. We had a garden of plenty and tech companies are fencing it off bit by bit to sell you what used to be free.
