It's really fucking tiring to see you americans singing along to the tune of the 'us vs them' rhethoric.

I don't know what he has planned, but in my book he's the most likely candidate to break the 2-party system.

This sounds like a desperately needed law. Hope it will get through.

'Just pull yerself up by yer own bootstraps, lad!

While I do agree (or at least hope) that we all have the agency to positively influence our own lives and those around us, the main point there in my opinion is that different people have different resources in life. Someone that's experienced systemic racism, or someone who's brain is a wee bit non-standard just has it harder than someone not experiencing these issues.

Is there a scientific calendar which uses a different reference than Jesus? in c/science
[–] khaliso 24 points 3 months ago (11 children)

The YouTube Channel Kurzgesagt has proposed a calendar based on the 'Human Era' (HE) instead of before/after christ format.

It's based on the first monument of large-scale human cooperation (building a temple in modern-day turkey) and is quite elegant in my opinion. It 'simply' adds 10.000 years to the calendar we're all already used to. :)

The natural habitat has been altered using chemicals, farming methods, or terraforming to a degree that the current ecosystem can not sustain itself without human intervention

I think artificial is the proper therm here. Not in a sense that they're gene modified or robot bugs, but in a sense that their dominance of the habitat is due to human interference.
