As you are probably aware about due to Ukraine at war experts are expecting a severe wheat shortage this year in many countries with harsh consequences.

We are now at peak agricultural area; that's one point. One of the reason why in many countries now plant based meat replacements do become so popular, because meat production needs vast amounts of food for the cattle (e.g. in Germany 60% of the agritcultural area).

Another problem though is wasted food; actually mankind is producing more than enough food, but 1/3 of the global production just gets wasted, which is aboud 1.3 billion metric tons a year. So just consider what it would mean for mankind if wasted food would decrease a lot...

Why Does the 'NYT' Feel the Need To Inject Transphobia Into the Fight for Abortion Access?

The New York Times has once again published a shamelessly transphobic article, this time centered around the fight for abortion access.

www.themarysue.com

The New York Times has once again published a shamelessly transphobic article, this time blaming “transgender activists and eager progressives” for taking over the reproductive rights movement and essentially erasing cis women from the abortion narrative. To be clear, this is not a thing that is actually happening.

All hail the Gray Lady!

Did you hear about the "assassination plot" to take out Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, and that the man behind it was caught with a gun near Kavanaugh's home because he turned himself in, claiming he needed psychiatric help?

Right now the Republicans are in a feeding frenzy over this. I think this is the best response:

What the absolute fuck!?

Geico must pay $5.2 million to woman who got HPV from sex in man's insured car, court rules (nbcnews.com)

Geico must pay a Missouri woman $5.2 million after she caught HPV from unprotected sex with her then-boyfriend in his insured automobile, a state appellate court ruled.

In an opinion published Tuesday, the Court of Appeals for the Western District of Missouri affirmed the multimillion-dollar payout against the insurance company, best known for its ubiquitous TV ads that frequently feature a talking gecko.


The woman — identified in court papers only as "M.O." — said that she "engaged in unprotected sexual activities in Insured's vehicle" in November and December 2017 and that he "negligently caused or contributed to" her catching the human papillomavirus (HPV), a common sexually transmitted infection, court papers said.

After Geico turned down her claim, M.O. took the matter to an arbitrator, who found in her favor before a court affirmed the $5.2 million judgment, the appeals court said.

Geico appealed, claiming it never had a chance to contest the claim.

"But GEICO did have the opportunity to participate and defend its interests — including the ability to challenge liability and damages — by entering a defense of Insured," according to the appeals court opinion, which put the word "did" in bold italics.

The insurance company has "no right to relitigate those issues" now in appeal, the court said.

[...]

"In other words, the vehicle’s covered use did not cause M.O.’s alleged injuries; instead, her injuries arose from an intervening cause — namely, her failure to prevent transmission of STDs by having unprotected sex."
