Incredible work from @katieworth.bsky.social @amywestervelt.bsky.social and @themadstone.bsky.social on how unproven carbon capture and storage (CCS) came to be legitimized. Popular CO₂ removal (CDR) methods, bioenergy w/CCS (BECCS) and direct ocean removal, also rely on CCS actually being a thing.

Every single numskull ex-reporter who has been paid off by the AI industry seems to have their knives out for Ed Zitron on Twitter today because he went on The Daily Show's podcast. I don't think it's coordinated, I just think they're all uniformly embarrassed by the same bad hill they're dying on.

I actually think Ed hates me now for telling him that actually, no, American companies intentionally embedding themselves into people's 401Ks and the American defense infrastructure at a rapid pace will not be allowed to collapse overnight, that they will be bailed out. But the scam he sees is real.

A lot of people seem to have internalized Republican critiques that the New York Times is liberal. It is center-right. It speaks for a particular definition of the Establishment. I hope this reduces your cognitive dissonance.
