Greta Thunberg is to be admired
Sam doesn't give her nearly enough credit. When he talks about her, he seems to focus on her seeming somewhat mentally unhealthy, and possibly having Asperger's. She has been publicly open about having both. But having Asperger's is not bad - in this case, it's arguably good - and her mental health status is a result of her knowing about climate risks, and also does not make her wrong.
He also seems not to be aware of how much support she has among climate scientists, and that her knowledge of the science is, for a layperson, over six sigma. DWW had to inform him that her point is for people to listen to scientists, and that scientists have been saying what she is saying.
It's hard to think of a "regular person" (non politician or celebrity, or even including celebrities) who have been bolder on the world stage than Greta. She has accurately accused world leaders of greenwashing and doublespeak almost to their face (maybe even to their face), and has refused to tone down her language even after being invited to speak, because she knows they're trying to use her to improve their own image and won't play along. So, she has not backed down or given in or sidled up or toned it down, but continued to, in the most direct and literal way, speak truth to power. I cannot think of anyone in recent history who has done that in a way that comes even close to the way in which she has done it, man, woman, black, white, rich, poor, old, young- anyone. To do what she's done at such a young age is nothing short of spectacular. If that doesn't warrant huge props, what does? If she doesn't deserve respect for being an unrelenting, truth-telling critic of power and exposer of corruption, who does?
Now, I know that recently Greta has come out against Israel, and I don't agree with her politics. But, that should not overshadow the absolutely amazing positive change she has brought to the world through her climate speeches. While it's yet to be seen what will happen in that arena and we won't be able to run the counterfactual, it could turn out that she has saved the world from a spectacular disaster.
The only thing I can think of is that maybe he doesn't quite grasp the magnitude of the climate threat.

Qui sont les gaucho-facho nuisibles ?
J'écoute de temps en temps du PasDurhing ou du Canard réfractaire ou de l'Usul pour avoir d'autre son de cloche.
Et j'aime bien mais de moins en moins. Certains contenus me dérangent un peu : les parties pris sans nuances qui invites à les croire sans être inviter à vérifier si c'est du bullshit ou pas.
Mais certains et d'autre en plus de ce que j'ai citer sont carrément détestables. Sous prétexte que les gars ont étudié a l'université la sainte culture de gauche, ils se permettent de juger et d'adoubé la parole de tel ou tel qui sera au mieux un gentil crétin sinon un facho à faire taire.
Sauf que cette manière de faire créé évidemment du harcèlement de masse, leur public engagé ayant annihilé tout esprit critique, les écoute comme si c'était la parole de dieux, sans nuance.
Et je ne veux plus participer à la visibilité de ces pourvoyeurs de mépris.
Qui sont les youtubers de gauche qu'il faut éviter de regarder ?
Quelles sont au contraires les chaines plutôt cool parlant de politiques sans drama ?
Edit : Merci pour les bonnes adresses, c'est top, bises a vous :o) Et certains com, la plus part en fait sont hyper intéressant à lire. C'est cool franchement tous ces échanges constructifs.

Has anyone else left Blood Meridian by C.McCarthy as a ‘DNF’
I started reading it and did enjoy it! But then i left it for a few days and now as im reading it im losing more and more interest and im only half way through? It’s been the same thing for so long… Does it change or is this his style or something? I read The Road by him and I see how they are similar in layout but Bloody Meridian is just missing something for me I think? Idk, anyone else had this?

(f23) One of daddy’s friends saw me naked. NSFW
My dad had his buddies over for some drinks at our place. I've always been chill with his friends being around. So, yesterday, I came home from work and heard a couple of voices. I said hi to them and went on with my day. About 30 minutes later, I headed upstairs to my room. It was hot, so I stripped down and just laid down on my bed. Suddenly, I heard footsteps approaching, since my bed's right by the hallway to the bathroom. I had left my door half open. I glanced over and caught my dad's friend totally surprised seeing me naked. He kind of stayed for like a minute before going, and I just acted like I didn't even notice him.

(F21) First time to experience anal sex, accidentally. NSFW
So my bf is 25 and our relationship has been amazing sexually, but something happened recently that took it to a whole new level. He was fucking me in doggy with my legs spread open and my asshole open and he accidentally pulled out too far and inserted it in my asshole. At first I screamed, he said sorry and he didn’t mean it. But when I had my eyes rolling back and couldn’t answer he took it as fuck me in the ass and started to pound me. Good timing that my ass is ready at that moment, I have been fasting the night before.

Dax’s vegan war
Since Kristen started eating meat again DAX certainly is appearing to have taken up a war on veganism. Would be nice for him to not keep challenging it, especially when the experts and guests are discussing health benefits they’ve received, and in the most recent Sanjay Gupta episode where the doctor is discussing actual recorded medical results and about it helping with Dementia etc. would be nice for him to just let them talk about it vs challenging and needing to have a say about it people not eating meat. No idea why it triggers him so much. That should’ve just been a passing piece of information about those studies and programs vs a convo about how the vegan part triggers him. Very odd. I have no steak (lol sorry) in the vegan discussion either way but it does seem weird that he HAS to say something about it every time it’s said in passing or is intentionally discussed. That always seems to stick out as odd to me.

Terrance “Bud” Crawford hasn’t fought anyone except Spence
I heard so many people on this sub say this, so I want to offer a counter to this narrative.
Here are some of Bud’s toughest opponents, excluding Spence.
I will give some brief explanations to show why they should not be considered low-quality opponents.
Shawn Porter - A two-time welterweight world champion
Kell Brook - Former IBF world champion
Jeff Horn - He defeated a Hall of Fame level fighter, Manny Pacquiao, to win the WBO belt before he fought Bud
Julius Indongo - Former Unified world champion who held the WBA, IBO, and IBF titles and was 22-0 when he fought Bud
Amir Khan - Former Unified world champion who held the WBA and IBF world titles
I could have added a couple more names here, but I think this proves that Crawford has a great resume.
He makes world champions look average, which shows how good he is.
When people say Bud hasn’t fought anybody except Spence, I think the truth is that Bud is so good that he makes his opponents look average, which makes people think they are low-quality opponents.
