  • Trump White House Reportedly Blocking Intelligence Report Warning of Homeland Security Threats in Midst of Iran War

  • pretty shure Trump knows that

    I'm not. But I do think he doesn't care and would only try to use it to his advantage, yes. So not much actual disagrement with you.

  • Trump has privately shown serious interest in U.S. ground troops in Iran

  • As if he cares about his family. I mean, he does in passing, but you know he'd give them up in a heartbeat if it held any advantage whatsoever to him personally. Well, except for the one he wanted to fuck, but she's too old now. So even her.

  • We seriously need a plugin that replaces all words spoken by Trump's mouthpieces to be replaced with static and line noise. I'm tired of reading the lies. It'd be one thing if they were interesting, but they're so lame.

  • Corn grown for ethanol would not help in a food shortage, so for the idea of a food shortage, it is.......... not helpful.

    We have plenty of land not being used right now that could be used to grow food.

    But we don't have a shortage of food. We have food being wasted and thrown away. We have plenty of excess food. This is like being worried about your driveway taking up valuable lawn space. It's...... not.

  • That's always just one of the worst feelings in the world. This thing is supposed to work and be easy and............. nope. Not there. It's gone. Now you have work to do. heh

  • Corn grown for ethanol is not edible by humans. Also, do you really think growing only 29,750,000 acres of corn instead of 30,000,000 acres is a meaningful difference? Because it's not.

  • As someone who grew up as a fundamentalist Southern Baptist… it's fundamental/evangelical Christianity that's so bad.

    My dad was a preacher's kid, son of a Methodist minister. He's still somewhat conservative in some ways, but he's fine with LGBTQ+, and his philosophy is basically that while he believes in God, he can't make that choice for anyone else, so he doesn't really worry about it for anyone else, i.e. doesn't evangelize, etc.

    If all Christians were like my dad, I'd probably be okay still being a Christian instead of the atheist I am.

    Good on you for your journey, and I hope you continue to find peace <3

  • In the US, we use a lot of prime farmland to grow corn that we turn into ethanol - 30,000,000 acres. Thirty million acres!

    That ethanol is combined with gas (making the gas less efficient, by the way) and powers our cars in the US.

    If you look at the number of miles the ethanol powers in the US, and calculate how many acres of solar we'd need to power electric cars to go that number of miles, we'd need to convert less than a quarter of a million of those acres to solar. So let's round up from 214,000 acres to the 250,000 because... inefficiencies, or whatever.

    So we could gain 29,750,000 acres of land to grow more food or whatever and stop growing corn to turn into ethanol just to burn it in our cars.

    For that matter, if we wanted to use that ethanol land (JUST the land we're using for ethanol) to power ALL cars in the US, switching everyone over to electric, it would only take about two million acres. Sure, 2,000,000 acres is a lot, but that would still be freeing up TWENTY EIGHT MILLION ACRES of land we're using JUST to grow corn we turn into ethanol.

    It does ignore anything like the chaos of forcing everyone to buy a new electric car, setting that infrastructure up - I'm not saying this would be easy, but it is stunning how much land we could stop abusing to grow corn to burn in our cars.
