@TonyStark also you need to reach out to people.

Someone founded a local "political support group" to meet every 2 weeks and chat. So I recruit for that. And I'm helping recruit for another group.

@StillIRise1963 also glass will cost more

@StillIRise1963 from the Atlantic.

The largest glassmaker in North America is a Mexican company, Vitro. It operates plants in the U.S. and Canada, but the center of its operations is Monterrey, Mexico.

@skinnylatte oooh. Need to check it out.

@ai6yr note how they talk about pre existing conditions like all of dont have or won't eventually have some.

@skinnylatte @douglasvb oh thanks for that!

@cstross in a just world Wakefield would be held accountable the same way war criminals should be.

@drahardja @pluralistic it really does fit doesn't it? It's all individualistic, ignores the real causes AND is about blame.

The people who made and benefit from this messed up system don't want to look at what they did AND don't want anyone else looking at them. So this fits too.

This is where the climate change issues and probable pandemic(s) is going to get real nasty. I expect Weather Control to actually come up in congress from more than MTG, and any pandemic will have so much bullshit that we'll see a higher body count.

@chema as a project manager I am 100% agreed with this.

I think part of it is goal alignment. If you can agree on a goal, you can get there. That's it. It's often pretty easy.

Another part is not being willing to accept imperfection.

A third is not accepting iterative improvement.

@ekis and "on top" while hiding isn't on top. I think of the "doomsday bunkers" in Hawaii, and it's like yeah, during eco-collapse you're StUCK there. And your kids and grandkids possibly as well.

If you think #covid19 is bad now wait until President Trump bans masking in public.

Because if you don't think he'd do that shit you're wrong.

It's Dems or dystopia.

My opinion of Iran attacking Israel is I'm not a goddamn mideast expert and no one should listen to me.

@inthehands in a discussion I saw someone noted that a "removing AI from workflow" consulting company would soon be viable.

This feels like a conversation between Team Fortress 2 characters.

<Scout> "I dunno why people go on about 'biological women!'"
<Soldier> "ALL WOMEN ARE BEAUTIFUL! Biological! Chemical! Nuclear!"
<Spy> "I feel you both don't understand the situation, yet understand it better than many."
