The election will pan out how it'll pan out. I'm voting for Biden so I can give my friends the best chance we can get them.
I am not just voting, though, and you shouldn't stop at voting either.
Start working towards unionizing your workplace if you can. Join the IWW for training and networking (literally any worker can join).
Join and support any kind of solidarity network in your town you can (tenant unions, volunteer security details, food distributors, etc.) Hell, start one with your friends if there isn't one.
Participate in protests and public shows of solidarity. Don't back down.
Help the homeless. They've completely lost their voices and are constantly under attack by NIMBYs and cops, and it's likely that many people you know right now will be in their position in the future, especially if Trump's Elected.
Right now, 'the revolution' would never come. US citizens are atomized and divided, by highways, suburban sprawl, parking lots, hostile architecture, and the constant crushing weight of capitalist responsibilities. We've got to rebuilt the networks of solidarity we had during the union wars. That's the best way forward to a better US. Unionize, uplift your fellow workers, and keep pushing against the oppressors.
Meat cows specifically should be wiped out for their methane production being so high. I've heard that if we managed to stop beef consumption we'd have something like a 10% decrease in emissions just from that alone.
Apparently new x-ray systems are now able to differentiate the density of water from other more dangerous chemicals, which has made so some airport customs do in fact allow water bottles through.
I'm assuming they mean they're shunning Zionist scientists? I would guess that there are pro-Palestine scientists out there who have Israeli citizenship.
Edit:article is subscription-walled but from what I read it's specifically that scientists at Israeli institutions are getting dropped in protest.
Rock throw's a pretty overt Nazi. Much of his comics show this outright or allude to it, but he also has a public history of supporting neo Nazi groups.
First two are a rogue agent killing only to sustain itself, and a criminal figurehead attempting to solicit societal change. Ronald, though, is a systemically approved, profit-motivated conglomerate. It's always when dangerous systems become systematized that they reach new levels of destructiveness.
Because he is the poster child of conserving the Reagan-enshittified status quo, and the US administration is attempting to continue keeping a leg up on the cold war it desperately wants to continue.
Peak design was late 90s and 2000s, where you got to see the new crazy designs of a new era while 80s design still existed all around you prevalently. That fusion is peak nostalgia for me.
We've had "hidden" planets multiple times actually. In one case, we discovered Neptune by observing that Uranus' orbit was wonky, and this really Bolstered peoples' trust of Newton's gravitational theory.
The existence of another planet even closer to the sun than Mercury, Vulcan, was also hypothesized by the same astronomer who predicted Neptune's existence. This was due to Mercury also having a wonky orbit. After Einstein's general relativity came about though, it was found that no new planet was necessary to explain Mercury's orbit.
I think this new planet is the one predicted by Cal Tech "Planet Nine", is supposedly 10 Earths in size, orbits on average 20 times further out than Neptune, and has a very oblong orbit out in deep space.
As another 'fun' tangent, there is some debate every now and again that dark matter may demonstrate that Einstein's Theory of Relativity is also flawed and that we're in need of a new theory. Currently, though, there has not been a sufficient new theory to take its place, so the existence of 'unseen' matter still is the strongest explanation we have. I put 'fun' in quotes because it seems like this debate is starting to affect astronomers and physicists the same way that 'The Orangutan" affects Edgar Allen Poe experts. Video related
I know that the chans were used for orchestrating some of the various harrassment campaigns that have happened throughout the years, including most of the gamergate BS. They're such chaotic spaces I can't imagine trying to pull off any prolonged actions on them, and the automatic pseudonymity really brings out the seediest people possible.
I watched though about half of it, before concluding that this video is only going to be a summary video that won't answer my questions fully.
Digital ID and Digital signature are absolutely necessary, though depending on how those two are implemented I could still see fraud and vote manipulation being feasible. I was hoping someone with more knowledge about how Estonia is doing its security and verification systems to ensure records aren't being modified maliciously.
One thing I commonly hear as an argument against electronic voting is security and ease of vote tampering. Is Estonia solving this issue and, if so, how?
