It really is amazing that the Reagan 80's fanbois that grew up TERRIFIED of the USSR now think Putin and Co. are our BFF's because Daddy says so.

You've got to see this thread...Santorum being roasted alive in it.



Pretty funny stuff.

The sun! Where do it go at night??

Mark Levin going all in on unamsking today, calling it the "scandal of the century." Expect to hear endless derp from fox and friends and then the president on down for the time being. Wouldn't at all be surprised to see more unmasking tweets in the morning.

Dude thinks dinosaurs existed 6,000 years ago. What did you expect?

U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A!

so I'll be that guy

To be fair to trump, we really didn't give a **** about climate change so the outrage over an agreement that's probably about worthless on that front anyway has gotta be totally ****ing with his mind.

Not that I mind, but boy is there some overlevel of outrage over a weak at best agreement.

I obv agree we really need to stop ****ing up the planet, but we needed to start that awhile ago. Trump's problem on this is simply he might be the end of the last chance at mitigating the carnage and lol us.

You're thinking at Trump's level. It would be foolish and patently illegal. I think the courts will likely kill his sanctuary city threats, even though they have some semi-plausible basis.

Spring / summer 2016 was not good for me and I was just trying to take my mind off stuff. I had planned to catch up on the show and decided I might as well do so before it disappeared to some pay platform.

Falls for what? They got put on big commisssions, thought they could do some good for their country or their company. See that the president isn't rational, say "smell you later."

What is complex here? Should they have just refused the initial appointment? I mean that's not unreasonable, but there could have been potential benefits to being a member (like being able to influence Trump on climate change).

no **** sherlock the agreement could have been better. Why do you think they had to lock congregations of 190 something countries in a room for days for them to sign on something common.

You've got to realize there are some incentives for poor countries to delay the agreement. The longer they wait to sign on, the hotter the planet becomes, the more the situation becomes critical for everyone, the more money they can ask for. 100 billions was an absolut bargain. In 10 years, it will be hundred times that.

Berlin tabloid, "Earth to Trump: **** You!"

(Man, I don't think you can swear even in a foreign language in the newspapers here, def not the front page.)

Nope. I live in another one. I mean we ratified Paris but:

This is one of those scary Trump tweets I was talking about the other day that hasn't really haunted us...yet.

we had a big old row about coal here back in the 80s

the problem was that in order to dig up £90 worth of coal we had to spend £100, so the govt got rid of the entire (at the time, nationalised) industry over the course of about a decade. the upside was that the rest of the country stopped pouring money into a losing industry, the downside was that many rural communities - which had for generations relied on the mining industry for jobs - were completely shattered and to this day have not recovered

~no private firms entered the space left behind by the public sector withdrawal due to the aforementioned spend £100 to earn £90 problem

my question is this: even if drumpf strips away environmental regulations etc, can a sizable american coal industry exist without indefinite government handouts?

Is the aid the only enforceable part of the agreement?

Though I'm sure Microbet will be along shortly to disagree, coal isn't subsidized directly here. The degree that coal exists in the future will depend on how long natural gas prices stay low and solar prices stay high.

I'd advise against Denmark. The cost-of-living is very high. The logistics of getting all the paperwork sorted out to legally move there as an American citizen would be a pain. From a social perspective, it's quite hard to integrate into the community. It seems that after a certain age, Danes just say "I have all the friends I need. No more talking to strangers." and then shut down socially.

So you keep posting the same comment over and over again.

Plus they always have all kinds of deals. Before I got it through prime I got an Apple Pay deal from the website that was like $1.99 for 6-8 weeks. It renewed at a higher price but I still think you could probably get wapo digital for $4.99 a month, at least I regularly saw that price out there. As someone who grew up with two to four physical newspaper subscriptions I read every day to becoming someone who didn't pay for any newspapers for years, the Washington post is certainly the one paper I feel offers guaranteed value.

Newspapers physically pushing Sunday editions makes sense as that is when they have 80% of their ads and if people read it or not is meaningless to their ad rates. Newspapers have been the kings of epic fail when it comes to monetizing online content versus their print content.

It is subsidized in different forms but compared to other industries not so much:

Raping the environment isn't Schindler's list funny, but it's pretty funny.
