With many of the recent supreme court rulings that have ignored or outright destroyed precedent, I could easily see a situation like you described. Somewhere offscreen a ruling had been made and this is the fallout.

This is just fracking by another name.
Granted, season 4 is the only season of Heroes to exist.
Read that for the first time a couple months ago; it very much felt like where I’m at now with everything.
Me at 40: Hmm, looking back at the last 15 years of fisheries biology work, I can safely say that the net impact of that work was actually worse conditions for the planet than better. Well, at least I got to watch the head of my state agency give out ‘fish bumps’ to the other heads because we managed to increase the quota for the year! (I quit)
Right on, thanks for the input. That’s vaguely what I remember hearing about it years ago, which had me intrigued. Personally, I just don’t think I like the writing so far. But it seems to read fast so I guess I’ll probably keep going for now. Plenty of books I’ve felt this way about before at this point and been wrong, so we’ll see.
We’ll let’s put those kids to work!!
They should name the archiving ai Herodotus… We really have entered the post truth era.
Alternatively, ‘Huge corpo wants to siphon government money to reopen nuclear facility years after disaster’ sure sounds like the dystopian version to me.
JD Vance’s response to abortion rights was ‘we need to get women to trust us’, so yeah I’d imagine its pretty dismal.
The company has injected more than 4.5 million metric tons of carbon into the ground below its Decatur plant since it began operations. To put this in perspective, the plant emitted more than 4.1 million metric tons of CO2 into the atmosphere in 2022 alone.
So they basically took a chunk of emissions and said, I’ll bet we can make that double what it is now, but only if we also poison the locap water supplies.
Yeah, I read this article and a similar one the other day and it sure sounds to me like he just cross bred some sheep and none of the people involved know what cloning is. He apparently cloned the sheep, but then used it to breed hybrids? That he sold based on percent of the originals DNA? If you can clone in the first place (doubtful, obviously), why are you then breeding anything?
One small rant I’d like to make as this article glosses over his bullshit of a sentence. This country is absolutely fucking terrible about enforcing poaching, wildlife trafficking, or any other number of clear degradations to our natural environment. Ignoring the fact that he most likely didn’t even hybridize anything, because ‘paid off a hunter for the ram’s testicle’ doesn’t inspire confidence as to the care of the sperm cells; he still was illegally trafficking wild animals and their body parts with the intent of raising invasive animals for distribution. And yet, he not only isn’t even getting a slap on the wrist, the judge in the case is fawning over him like he outsmarted all those fancy college kids by cloning a sheep in his barn with nothing more than his own wits and god on his side.
Probably Late Night With The Devil. I haven’t had a chance to watch it yet but I want to.
Reminds me of the AccuWeather ceo/trump appointee who wanted to sell off all the us gov weather satellites so it could be privatized. Everything must be commodified.
Look at this douchecanoe sailing up in his douche canoe.
Henson expects La Niña, which is associated with cooler temperatures, to take effect later this year and subsequently reduce average temperatures.
“Even if next year doesn’t bring similar records, we know what the long term forecast is, and that’s warmer and warmer over time,” Henson said, adding: “When you turn up the burners and leave them on for a century, you’re going to see the water boil.”
When it’s 0.1 degrees cooler next year and it gets reported as a cooling trend.
Edit: I guess that quote was from the NBC article about the same, here’s archive:
Trump getting immunity from the SC only to squander it by allowing discovery isn’t my first choice, but damn would that be hilarious.
Also available on iphone (downloading it now), ready to drop maps as the degoogling continues.
And here I thought it was because I have zero intention of ever watching it.
Annular throbber? Is he trying to one up Trump and the microphone?
