Southeast Asia would be uninhabitable at 4°C global warming due to being underwater (red) or because of unendurable desert/storm conditions (yellow/brown) which would appear quite likely to occur by 2060-2090 if deforestation continues and emissions keep rising through the 2020s.

@RepJackKimble Most intelligent, moral, deep-thinking people I’ve met in my life make far less than that. I think you’re overstating your capacity & have way too low an opinion of Americans & way too high an opinion of yourself.

Just a friendly warning. We don’t even make $200k per year in Congress despite working nearly 140 days. If we aren’t properly compensated, a lot of us will go to the private sector and you will be left with some real idiots in Congress.

@nicksortor We stole the land from native peoples. We stole blacks from other countries & made them slaves. We steal parents away from their kids & deport them. Now we steal votes from citizens. It’s a stolen land, and those who support that have had their common sense stolen from them.

BREAKING: The 5th Circuit US Court of Appeals has just UNANIMOUSLY removed a block on Mississippi re-drawing their maps to redraw a race-based district Chair of the SHAM J6 committee Bennie Thompson (D-MS) is now in GRAVE DANGER of losing his seat LET’S GO!!! RE-DRAW NOW! 🔥

@DanielTurnerPTF Are you honestly that obtuse?

In 2021, Joe Biden’s Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm said, “The president does not control the price of gasoline.” What changed?

@SandDyLife Some 1 in 20 people don’t have Long Flu. They have Long Covid.

@BreakingDawn64 @CBSNews @RamyInocencio And Covid is just a flu. Biology changes.

@FFT1776 So you’re ok with a pedo as potus? Says a lot about your character. Maybe sit this non-issue out.

So ABC is fine with Jimmy Kimmel joking about President Trump’s death? 👌🏻Good to know. 🚫BOYCOTT Kimmel’s advertisers! ➤ Allstate ➤ McDonald’s ➤ Starbucks ➤ Apple ➤ AT&T ➤ Instacart ➤ KitKat ➤ Venmo ➤ JCPenney If ABC won’t hold him accountable, customers will.

The Cato Institute is a libertarian think tank. It just published a 30-year study showing immigrants paid 14.5 trillion dollars more in taxes than they received in government benefits. Every single year. For thirty years. Without exception. The country was lied to. Here is what the study found.🧵

@SenRickScott It's a Republican who's throwing our lives away with this stupid war. It's Republicans who put us in deep debt & have for decades. It's Republicans who cut public health funds, leading to millions dying here & abroad. If you think otherwise, resign & let smarter people lead.

Let’s face facts: The Democrats are DESTROYING America. ➡️ They support illegal aliens ➡️ They support our enemies ➡️ They support the Iranian regime But Democrats DON’T support protecting American citizens. There is something seriously wrong with that, and it’s DANGEROUS.

@TomCottonAR Tom voted for the OBBB, which has led to the unnecessary deaths of an estimated 1 million people (so far) from hunger, malnutrition & easily-preventable diseases. He should sit ALL discussions of morality out & resign because he's complicit in these murders.

Kamala Harris caused record inflation, chaos at the border, and pushed trans surgeries on kids. Her values are the opposite of Arkansas's values. It's striking to see Arkansas Democrats embrace Kamala and her policies. And it's another reason to vote Republican this fall.

one of the best metafilter comments of all time gets more relevant every day

@BoLoudon Within the margin of error, so basically flat.

🚨BREAKING: President Trump's approval rating with Catholics just JUMPED from 48 percent to 51 percent after calling out Pope Leo's hypocrisy, per Newsweek. God bless President Trump! Follow: @BoLoudon

The ceasefire isn’t “breaking down" It’s doing exactly what zero-sum conflicts do: revealing the next phase of war What happens in the next 72 hours won’t be random. It will follow a pattern Here’s the framework almost no one is using

@Boldtruth11 @westmiwx And since @boldtruth11 can’t actually handle said truth because he’s apparently science illiterate, yes weather modification exists, on very small scales. But it’s not an alternative explanation for global climate change any more than a garden hose explains a rising ocean.

@Boldtruth11 @westmiwx No conspiracies necessary. It’s climate change. Extreme weather events, drought & fire are growing more & more likely. We’re all responsible, though billionaires, big oil & Republicans in power are most of all.

🚨EVACUATION ORDER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🚨 MUSKEGON RIVER DOWNSTREAM OF CROTON DAM IN NEWAYGO COUNTY! All residents located downstream of the Croton Dam are directed to EVACUATE IMMEDIATELY! WATER LEVELS AT THE DAM CONTINUE TO RISE RAPIDLY! ANYONE REMAINING IN THE FLOODPLAIN IS AT SERIOUS RISK OF INJURY OR DEATH, AND FIRST RESPONDERS WILL NOT BE ABLE TO RESPOND UNTIL CONDITIONS ARE DEEMED SAFE! EVACUATE NOW!!!!!!!! An emergency evacuation center is available at the Newaygo County Commission on the Aging at 93 S Gibbs Street in White Cloud. EVACUATE NOW!!!!!!! DO NOT WAIT!!!!!!!!

@JoshHall2024 Translation: he’s worried about keeping his job so he’s making stuff up to appease an increasingly senile & petty potus.

🚨BREAKING: 🚨 FBI Director Kash Patel is reportedly preparing to formally announce FEDERAL CRIMINAL CHARGES against DISGRACED former President Barack Obama and DOZENS of other key individuals who were involved in the planning and execution of Russiagate in the aftermath of the 2016 election. A FEDERAL GRAND JURY in the southern district of Florida is said to be empaneling to hear testimony, with indictments expected to begin dropping by early May AT THE LATEST. Over 30 former Obama administration officials are reportedly cooperating with the federal government to help build its case against Barack Hussein Obama, who attempted to lead a coup to take down his successor, President Trump. The Honorable Aileen Cannon is rumored to be the federal judge who will be presiding over this HISTORIC RICO CRIMINAL CASE involving a former President, which is terrible news for Obama and his band of DEEP STATE THUGS. Buckle up, patriots... THE STORM IS COMING and we are about to witness THE POLITICAL TRIAL OF THE CENTURY! 🇺🇸🔥💪🏻

Every person who can physically see him in this moment has the most solemn duty imaginable to humankind, for the sake of every living soul on this planet, to intervene in any way they can to disrupt this event.

@thedaywar90 Do you just spend your day looking for non-issues to be mad about? Based on this post I’m guessing you’re pretty out of touch with genuine things that matter.

Democrat Mikie Sherrill just REFUSED to swear in as New Jersey Governor on the Bible… Instead, she chose a copy of the state constitution. Unreal.

@spreadlove2024 @ChuckGrassley Karson loves propaganda & nonsense rhetoric more than actual facts. Proven.

@ChuckGrassley Democrats love criminal illegals more than Americans. Proven.

Senate Democrats, excluding the courageous Sen Fetterman, rejected Republicans plea for progress to fund dept of homeland security this afternoon When will Democrats get their act together & put the safety of the American ppl above their grudge against Pres Trump??????

Everyone is covering the force majeure. Everyone is covering the 13 million tonnes. Everyone is covering the gas prices and the geopolitics and the five-year timeline. My good friend Veron Wickramasinghe just asked the question nobody else is asking: how do you rebuild when the machines that make the molecules take three to four years to manufacture, ship through a closed strait, and commission in a war zone? Read what he found. Every LNG train at Ras Laffan requires high-purity nitrogen from Air Separation Units: cryogenic plants cooling air to minus 190 degrees to distil it into component gases. Pearl GTL needs 30,000 tonnes per day of pure oxygen from eight Linde-built ASUs. Each cold box: 470 tonnes, 60 metres tall. Lead time from contract to commissioning: three to four years. If destroyed, replacement arrives no earlier than 2029. But here is the choke point that Veron identified that nobody else has. The heart of every cryogenic ASU is a brazed aluminium plate-fin heat exchanger called a BAHX. These exchangers operate with temperature differentials of one to two Kelvin and require precision brazing in vacuum furnaces. Only five companies on Earth are qualified to manufacture them. Five. For every cryogenic heat exchanger in every air separation unit, every LNG train, every industrial gas facility, and every hydrogen plant on the planet. Fives Cryo in France. Kobelco in Japan. Linde in Germany. Sumitomo in Japan. Chart Industries in La Crosse, Wisconsin. Current lead times: 12 to 18 months or more. And their order books are already full. Veron was honest about what is confirmed and what is not. QatarEnergy CEO al-Kaabi confirmed LNG Trains 4 and 6 are damaged: 12.8 Mtpa offline, 3 to 5 year repairs, $20 billion annual revenue loss, force majeure up to 5 years. Shell confirmed Pearl GTL Unit 2 needs roughly one year of repair. What has NOT been confirmed is whether the ASUs themselves were destroyed. Shell’s one-year timeline is inconsistent with total ASU loss, which would require four to five years. Veron flagged this honestly and gave you the analysis both ways. And then he showed you the cascade nobody else sees. Qatar produces one-third of the world’s helium from the same facility. Helium is irreplaceable in semiconductor fabrication: cooling wafers, purging chambers, detecting leaks. Samsung and SK Hynix import 64.7 percent of their helium from Qatar. Spot prices have doubled. Liquid helium vaporises within 35 to 48 days. Fourteen percent of capacity is permanently damaged. The LNG trains, the ASUs, and the helium plants all sit on the same rock, fed by the same gas field, accessed through the same strait. One set of missile strikes on March 18 to 19 took out 17 percent of global LNG, threatened one-third of global helium, and exposed a supply chain that runs through five workshops in Germany, France, Japan, Italy, and Wisconsin with three-year lead times and full order books. This is what Veron understood that the headline analysts missed: the recovery is not constrained by money or political will. It is constrained by vacuum furnaces, aluminium metallurgy, and the physics of brazing at tolerances measured in single-digit Kelvin. You cannot accelerate physics. You cannot surge-produce a 470-tonne cold box. You cannot commission cryogenic equipment in a war zone. Five companies. Five workshops. Three-year lead times. Full order books. A closed strait. An active war. That is not a recovery timeline. That is a sentence. Read Veron’s full analysis. It is the most important thing written about this war that does not involve a missile.

@RepBrandonGill Your nonstop lies are what’s actually grotesque. Be better.

Democrat policy is built on flooding American communities with hostile foreigners and putting their interests above Americans. It’s absolutely grotesque.
