    Dems had the house for 12 years the past 16. Nothing really changed.

    People have claimed Harris wasn’t capable of leading. They got their undeserved confirmation when she turned out to be a no show for 14 hours yesterday.

    You construct a Strawman. If the Dems pulled a capable and charismatic woman out of the top hat she would be able to win.



  • So dumb. The captain can be partially blamed if there was negligence considering planned routes going through areas with bad ZOC (zone of confidence), or bad knowledge of depth in easier terms. Which might be a reason as they were surveying the area. But that’s pure speculation.

    Trying to blame anything on the captain being a woman is just ridiculous. The navigator on watch could also run the ship aground due to bad navigation, without the captain even being included in the process.

    Every time a grey ship is in an accident people open their cake holes. Let the investigation do its thing, then come back next year spewing your shit.

    I’m not claiming to know anything about this specific flood. Sure might be sick idk.

    But there’s a huge amount of crisis’ that got greater because of how we built, not what happened.

    Take the flood in Pakistan last year. The same flood happening 50 years ago in the same area wouldn’t be such a catastrophe. What caused it to be so severe was the amount of people who had settled in a valley which is carved out by smelting water from glaciers. Building smarter is the most rational solution for short term gains. Stabilizing the climate is a much greater endeavour, and might be impossible short term.

    For real though.

    If you settle in an area famous for being a flood plain, you can’t be mad about it when the plain floods.

    Germany are now doing experiments with controlled flooding of old flood plains to channel water away from too narrow man made canals. The flooding also kills invasive plants as they were only allowed to grow because of the geological changed forced upon the land.

    interesting watch on the topic.

    Lar summer in Norway we had a flood matching the regular high points. Only issue was that the last high point was almost 100 years ago. So people stopped caring and the areas close to the river was regulated as river front houses.

    Climate change is an issue. But people being dumb as fuck is an even greater one.

    Now in curious.

    Maybe it was an honest question, but the person has some issues with understanding time and place. So she decided to verbaly assault him?

    Could be in bad faith. But without proper knowledge we dont know.

    Lemmy absolutely loves shit like this somehow.
