Will 'Carbon Cutting' save the planet? Maybe, but...

 Maybe it will, but by the time they're done hugging every tree, pretty much all of us will be dead, so what's the point?

The Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry expects demand for power to be "severe" this afternoon local time. It said people should switch off unnecessary lights but still use air conditioning to avoid heatstroke.
For weeks, officials have warned of a power crunch as temperatures rise. Over the weekend, the temperature in central Tokyo rose above 95°, while the city of Isesaki, northwest of the capital, saw a record 10. That was the highest temperature ever recorded in June for Japan. June marks the start of summer in Japan, with temperatures typically staying below 95° during the month.
Although electricity providers are working to increase supply, the ministry said the situation was "unpredictable" as temperatures climb.
"If there is an increase in demand and sudden supply troubles, the reserve margin will fall below the minimum required of 3%," it said.
Japan's power supply has been tight since an earthquake in its northeastern region in March forced some nuclear power plants 
to suspend operations.
Officials have also closed several aging fossil fuel plants in an 
attempt to cut carbon dioxide emissions.

Outraged women took to social media and the streets over the weekend to protest Friday’s Supreme Court decision. Some activists have declared women should begin practicing abstinence, including several Twitter users who seemingly believes that women should even withhold sex from their husbands.
A 24-year-old woman protesting in New York City on Saturday told the New York Post she would not have sex with men if they were not willing to get a vasectomy. “If you’re a man who won’t get a vasectomy, even though it’s reversible, and you’re not out in the streets fighting for my rights, you do not deserve to have sex with me.”
Other seemingly progressive Twitter users joined in on the call to abstain from sex with men. “Perhaps a #sexstrike (also known as #abstinence ) would help the men folk to be all in on this #womensrights issue. #RoeVWade,” wrote Monique Pressley, a legal analyst, and political commentator, according to her bio. 
“If you’re celebrating the overturn of RoeVWade, disrespectfully, go fuck yourself. No literally. #SEXSTRIKE Don’t fuck your husbands, don’t fuck your boyfriends, don’t fuck that random from that one app. NO SEX WITH SPERM DONORS UNTIL WE HAVE OUR RIGHTS.”

I was at Lowes yesterday afternoon and I saw a guy wearing this exact shirt - one that I held on to this picture of so I could remember to order it because I was thinking of getting one for myself. Anyway, this guy looked like he was 102 years old, he was in a wheelchair and had one of those oxygen tank things hanging off his side with those tubes going in to his nose - you know the look, right? So, I'm rethinking getting one for myself. Yeah - I'll probably pass.

Some people need to shut the fuck up and just sing. Juss' sayin'...
Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong told a British crowd that he’s “renouncing” his American citizenship following the Supreme Court’s decision to repeal Roe v. Wade.
Performing live at London Stadium on the band’s Hella Mega tour with Fall Out Boy and Weezer on the night of the Court’s decision Friday, the American Idiot singer said, “Fuck America, I’m fucking renouncing my citizenship. I’m fucking coming here.”
Armstrong added, “There’s just too much fucking stupid in the world to go back to that miserable fucking excuse for a country.” As for whether he’d actually move to U.K., Armstrong insisted, “Oh, I’m not kidding. You’re going to get a lot of me in the coming days.”
Have fun in Canada, jerkoff...

Refining capacity in the U.S. is about a million barrels a day 
below what it was prior to the pandemic. 
 
That's left the country unable to meet its fuel needs 
as more people are commuting, traveling and driving 
as they emerge from the throes of the pandemic.

Staged or not it's still pretty funny...

AOC is advocating impeachment for Supreme Court justices who she says lied during their confirmation hearings when they assured senators that Roe v Wade was established precedent. “If we allow Supreme Court nominees to lie under oath and secure lifetime appointments to the highest court of the land and then issue, without basis… rulings that deeply undermine the human and civil rights of the majority of Americans, we must see that through.” 
“I believe lying under oath is an impeachable offense,” she added, referring to Trump-appointed Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh. “I believe that violating federal law in not disclosing income from political organizations, as Clarence Thomas did years ago, is also potentially an impeachable offense. I believe that not recusing from cases that one clearly has family members involved in with very deep violations of conflict of interest are also impeachable offenses.”
