They are lying about every scarcity claim. Global demand is collapsing as the world shifts to alternatives, especially transport electrification. The transition has moved at unprecedented speed and scale, displacing roughly 20 million barrels a day.

The proto-Effin’ Birds was my Tumblr “Swear Trek”. It opened a lot of doors for me and I wouldn’t be where I am today without it. I don’t have plans to revive it (one daily comic is enough work), just wanted to thank it for getting me here on this 60th anniversary of Star Trek.

The marker at the edge of the Iowa cornfield in which Buddy Holly died in 1959. One of my own photos, taken a few years ago. In all honesty, I couldn't believe it when I got there. Sometimes a guy gets lucky.

Very sweet and thoughtful. Quite the honor!
This morning, the Coldstream Guards at Buckingham Palace performed a tribute to Dolly Parton.
The last time I remember the guards at the palace honoring the memory of an American entertainer was when they paid tribute to Aretha Franklin after she passed away.

This is a terrific illustration -- for elected officials but also for media figures -- of the incredible power of simply refusing to take a bullshit dodge for an answer.
Keep asking the question, over and over again, and make the weasels squirm.
