  1. Holy fuck, what is this argument that China is just chugging along and ignoring climate change? If anything they're doing a HELL of a lot more than the US in investing in renewables, high speed rail, and nuclear energy (which yes the GND doesn't call for). And yes I can understand if you're skeptical of what they say publicly, but pointing the finger at someone else and saying "why should we make sacrifice when they aren't" is 5 year old logic. If the US significantly curbed its emissions it's still going to have a huge impact on fighting the worst possible effects of climate change.
  2. What's going to be catastrophic is having to spend on the order of trillions of dollars in repairs, building sea walls, people moving from the coast and being unable to sell their homes (and likely struggling to find work quickly), etc.
  3. So just completely ignoring the first part of my post then right? Sorry that radical change is needed, maybe if we didn't have decades of voting for presidents that pushed deregulation and actively denying the problem we wouldn't see candidates (correctly) taking an aggressive stance on this.
  4. So are we doing this thing again where we pretend that virtually all climate scientists aren't telling us we basically have no time to stop the worst effects of the ongoing warming? Slow rolling something out over 20+ years is not going to do anywhere near enough to stop massive damage to the earth. Also, how many coal miner jobs are there? This states that there were only about 80,000 in 2018 and that number is going down regardless of any executive or legislative action. https://www.wvpublic.org/post/coal-comeback-coal-new-low-after-two-years-under-trump
  5. I got Beto texts last year even though I moved away from Texas in 2015 and never registered with any democratic party organization. Most campaigns are going to text you if your number turns up somewhere and they think you're a possible voter.
  6. LOL at Cumtown making it on here.
  7. My thoughts exactly, request definitely seems like they want to leave a lot of wiggle room.
  8. Gonna be a good'un
  9. Yep, just like App. Spread all over the field and wide open running lanes.
  10. They really do look like App from the past few years, just a ton of athleticism and it seems like every guy can accelerate.
  11. Yep, THAT argument in particular is insane to me. China is aggressively trying to build out rail and move to renewable energy because they understand exactly how fucked humanity is in the next 50 to 100 years. You can't point the finger at China anymore and I'll be India will be doing the same.
  12. I figured my first alma mater, GA Southern, was going to get whomped by LSU but they got absolutely skullfucked by a very very physically dominant team. God damn it would be a good season if Texas can beat them.
  13. Georgia Southern, not State.
  14. nm
  15. Is this sarcasm? My company monitors and installed the gens at a landfill that was capped and uses the methane to operate the gens that powers some of the county's grid.
  16. His fucking brain is as smooth as jello at this point and we're going to be stuck with him being the nominee.
  17. Love my shitty-ass state. Must have had black and whites only voting booths.
  18. What sucks is that we're going to have basically a jungle primary (at least with multiple Dem candidates) for his seat in the general election in November 2020 and almost certainly a runoff unless somehow only one R and one D candidate file.
  19. I think this is fairly old and just making a round again on Twitter so neg away, but we need to get this bad girl a free agent contract to some damn NFL team. Absolutely dominates her man
  20. Like Hugo just said, there's a almost a 6% MoE. It's not a shitty poll, just probably not as accurate as some others.
  21. Eat shit Biden
  22. Man, if the Nats would just drop a damn game or two I could relax a bit.
  23. Those will be individual town hall kinds of talks with I assume Q&A. This resolution would have forced them to all answer the same questions where we could more honestly compare how they stack against each other.
  24. Woo boy, looks like how we tackled when Diaz was here.
