@elonmusk @elonmusk It would be handy if I could just pay a marginal cost for a single article like this one. There are way to many publications to subscribe to them all. Maybe X can help with that.

@KINGS1973 What percent of the weeks sales does a packer get at $400?

@united Accommodating a family with two children under 5 is exactly what I’m asking for. For at least honoring the seats we had.

[Ben Holland @benpholland]

@united We ppaid for confirmed seats for a family of four to sit together on an international flight. You’ve since moved and separated us. Customer service said that they could take care of it at the airport, but they can’t. Very poor service, selling our seat to someone else.

Reagan’s address on July 4, 1986 on post-rivalry correspondence between Adams and Jefferson …..just hits hard…

Thank you @thedispatch for highlighting!

1. If you have been following my twitter feed the last couple of years you know that a theme mine has been the cost of climate mitigation policies. My basic point is that I do not think that climate activists have been on the level with the public about the costs of these policies and that a counter-reaction was building. Looks like I am not alone in that assessment https://t.co/jBQs3XJqko.

@shaneparrish Within 15 years they were in a civil war. Humanity is pretty resilient, but people can cause hard times along the way.

@dollarsanddata How much of these alternatives are holdovers from how they became rich in the first place?

"We can encounter books equating the growth of humanity with that of a cancer cell. The opposite is true: humans create more than they consume, and the planet is not about to run out of anything." @Marian_L_Tupy for @Quillette

A transition from El Niño to #ENSO-neutral is likely by April-June 2024 (85% chance), with the odds of La Niña developing by June-August 2024 (60% chance). An #ElNino Advisory and #LaNina Watch remain in effect. https://t.co/5zlzaZ1aZx

@JanetteJoyB And production ag. There is not a single measure of success or time horizon.

NEW: analysis of millions of books published over the centuries suggests western society is shifting away from a culture of progress, and towards one of caution, worry and risk-aversion.

I think this is one of the most important challenges facing us today.

Not matter what fossil fuels language #COP28 adopts (“phase out”, “phase down”, or other diplomatic gymnastics) oil demand will be higher in 2024 than in 2023. And even higher in 2030.

Likewise, coal demand is higher in 2023 than in 2021 despite a #COP26 deal to phase it down.

This is cool

In a Southwest Oklahoma town, Altis, they held a chili cook-off and costume contest!

This little Masked Rider won the contest!

Notice the Double T boots!

So awesome!
