This list looks impressive, but only a tiny fraction are actually climate scientists, most from unrelated fields. Independent checks show 1–3% have relevant expertise. Some names are left on after death. 99% of climate scientists on Google scholar show #CLIMATEchange is real.

@Govindtwtt You’re missing that the people saying AI will take jobs are stupid.

Everyone says “AI will take all the jobs.” If that happens… how does this future actually work? No jobs → no income → no spending. So who buys things? Who pays rent? Who keeps the economy moving? What am I missing here?

@amazing_physics If it doesn’t have a surface, it can’t have a position. Stop trying to make the math work with things that make no sense.

The electron has no surface. When you imagine an electron… You probably think of a tiny sphere orbiting a nucleus. But that's an outdated image. In modern physics, the electron has no boundary. It has no "skin." It has no measurable surface. As far as we've been able to measure… It behaves like a point particle. With no detectable size. With no known internal structure. It's not a little ball. It's an excitation of a quantum field that exists throughout the universe. That means something unsettling: When you "touch" something… There's never actually any solid contact. It's electric fields repelling each other. So, here's the thing: If the electron has no surface… What exactly are you touching right now?

Montana and Wyoming are sister states and you're not welcome in either one of them. Why? Because if you weren't raised here, you will never fit into our world. Here's the annual machine gun and cannon shoot. You're not ready for our culture.

@WilliamShatner Nikola Tesla had the solution. As soon as they rediscover that, the cars can recharge while just being parked or even driven. There will never be a need to plug in.

@elonmusk Gossip circles, Newspapers, radio, TV, YouTube…. That’s always been the case, since people realized they can get attention. You just have to be careful about who you listen to.

@ConfoundedSoc @AlanRMacLeod Cuba has more doctors than the US. Turns out when it doesn’t cost you $200,000 people will become doctors even though it’s difficult.

When we say capitalism is an anti-human system, this is what we mean.

I can't get over the fact that Dune is about an oppressed people fighting for their homeland, waging a jihad to bring down a hegemonic empire by threatening to cut off the flow of their most precious commodity after the empire had assassinated their religious leader's father.

@AtheistPhoenix There is zero evidence that all life on Earth evolved from a single random protein string.

Evolution is fact Hard scientific fact I don’t believe in evolution I accept the massive amount of scientific knowledge concerning the subject
Jay Ellingson@jmellingson45

@BenjaminPDixon Atheists belive in evolution. No God there. Yes you are wrong. I actually know scripture too, but when I study, I actually look things up in the original Greek, Aramaic, and Hebrew translations.

AI data centers can use up to five million gallons of water each day. Am I the only one concerned about how this could pose a serious threat to our farmers and our food supply? What happens when these centers seriously strain our aquifers and dry up irrigation systems? Is it really worth it?

@fandompulse More? That would imply that Amazon’s series was something. Amazon’s series had little to do with the books.

A Wheel of Time animated film and TV series are in development alongside a video game. Producer Thomas Vu said: "I see tremendous opportunity in expanding ‘The Wheel of Time’ into fully authentic, integrated, interactive, and animated storytelling experiences. The depth of the mythology provides a foundation for sustained, multi-platform franchise growth." Do we need more Wheel of Time after Amazon's TV series?
