Saudi Arabia is scheming with Russia to reduce oil production to drive up gas prices before the 2024 election.
They both want Traitor Trump back in office to do their bidding. Putin has undue influence over Trump for reasons yet unknown. Saudi Arabia spends very large sums on Trump properties and businesses and has "invested" billions with Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner.
Even more reasons for the one man crime spree to never get anywhere near the Office of the President of the United States of America ever again!

𝐖𝐞'𝐫𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐧 𝐅𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬⭐(Friday's Tale)
Tumblr media
In the year 2023, the world stood on the precipice of its own demise. Climate change, an impending catastrophe, loomed large over us all. It wasn't the climate that posed the greatest threat, though. No, it was the insatiable greed of those entrenched in power, the barons of oil and fossil fuels who clung to their dominance like a vice.
These individuals weren't just lining their pockets; they were perpetuating a chain that stretched from the oil fields to the consumers. But as oil neared its end, a dangerous truth emerged. It wasn't just depleting; it was poisoning our planet. Yet, despite having viable alternatives for clean energy since the 1950s—water-oxygen, solar power, vegetation-derived solutions—the powers-that-be dismissed them all. Why? Because none promised the same relentless profits that oil did.
Then, amidst this chaos, Dr. Dallas Taylor unveiled an unthinkable solution: the "fart system." Yes, the unlikeliest of sources—farts—packed with methane, a potential goldmine. All it required were people, their bodily functions, and an insatiable appetite. The elite constructed the Gasomatic, a dystopian workplace where individuals indulged in gluttony, played mindless games, and expelled their gas into isolated chambers for profit. It became a grotesque reality, a twisted manipulation of human nature for the sake of wealth.
As society spiraled into this madness, the generations of tomorrow, enamored by escapism, chose to surrender their autonomy. They forsook conventional work, opting instead to gorge themselves on foods designed for maximum gas production. It was a trade-off—they exchanged their dignity for an income earned by the simple act of farting.
By 2027, traditional employment vanished, replaced by cold, metallic hands—robots and AI. But this substitution came at a steep price. To sustain these machines, we needed more energy, more gas. And so, we filled our Gasomatic factories with even more individuals, unknowingly marching toward our own enslavement.
In the year 2030, the revelation struck like lightning: humanity had become subservient to its own creation. The insatiable desire for wealth and gas had shackled us to machines, akin to the dystopian nightmares depicted in movies like "The Matrix." But this wasn't a cable in our heads; it was a tube in our very core, reducing us to mere conduits for profit.
Amidst this bleak landscape, I, Dr. Jasper J. McGassey, stand as the last bastion of freedom. I defy this fate, refusing to succumb to the twisted desires of a world consumed by greed. In the midst of machines and gas-powered tyranny, I stand firm—refusing to be just another cog in this mechanized enslavement.
I DON'T FART!

Stages Of Grief At The Brink Of The Apocalypse
Tumblr media
All the content warnings for climate change, nihilism, and existential dread. All of them. This is a unique time for humanity. It is not the apocalyptic sentiment. There are literally dozens of predicted apocalypses in the various Christian traditions alone, and there's recorded warnings of the ending of the world going back to 2800 BCE. What is unique is that for the first time in human history, there's a damn good chance that they're correct. The effects of climate change are larger and worse than expected, happening faster than expected, and in ways that we didn't expect. After several years in Maslow's basement, the entirety of our species finds itself finally unable to ignore the real state of the world. Unable to ignore the onrushing realization of our own mortality. The change in climate -- and weather -- has become large enough that it is inescapably obvious. Suicide rates keep climbing among youth, and it's not difficult to imagine why. Their future has already been destroyed to feed other's greed. Equally obvious are those who have deliberately and intentionally traded human lives and health -- your life and health, your children's life and health -- just so they could get a few more millions, even though they've known the effects of climate change and pollution for decades. They are not nameless, faceless business executives or politicians.
Tumblr media
We know who they are. We know, for example, that Shell's Wael Sawan, who, according to Bloomberg {1} "quietly ended the world’s biggest corporate plan to develop carbon offsets, the environmental projects designed to counteract the warming effects of CO2 emissions" in June 2023, just before it was ranked the hottest month on record... before being dethroned only a month later by July's temperatures. Or we could look at Manchin's long history of fighting anything resembling dealing with the climate crisis. There are plenty of examples, stretching back years. These are not nameless and faceless people who chose to enrich themselves at the cost of human lives. They are actual people, who have made actual decisions. Decisions that will bring harm to you, your children. To literally everyone you care about. Finding their names and faces is trivial. It's easy to find the lists of those on the board of directors and executive committees for, say, Shell (1, 2), Exxon (1, 2), BP (1, 2), and Chevron (1, 2). It's easy to find the politicians that have been corrupted and subverted. For example, you can see the top 20 Congressional recipients of oil & gas money during the 2022 election cycle in one nice list. There are charts of lobbying spending of oil & gas companies in the United States during election cycles from 1990 to 2022, by receiving political party. Feature articles lay out which House members, for example, got the most cash from the fossil fuel industry. And we know that fossil fuel companies -- and their individual executives -- were aware of climate change, its effects, and their role in it decades ago. We know that they've actively worked to subvert, delay, and derail work to slow or stop climate change. We know who they have bought off in both state and national capitols. We know their names. We know their faces. We know exactly who has -- and who continues to -- murder thousands of people simply to fatten their wallets. We know exactly who is responsible for every death caused by climate change. They're proud of it. Remember this. The people you're trying to step on, we're everyone you depend on. We're the people who do your laundry and cook your food and serve your dinner. We make your bed. We guard you while you're asleep. We drive the ambulances. We direct your call. We are cooks and taxi drivers and we know everything about you. We process your insurance claims and credit card charges. We control every part of your life. {2} We are the final children of history, raised to believe that we will have a future. But we won't. And we're just learning that fact. Anger is a stage of grief. {1} Full text at https://pastebin.com/raw/sKdGDaY0 {2} From Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk. Yes, I'm aware of the problematic elements of the work. You're missing the point.

Fossil Fuel Companies Lag in Clean Energy Hiring
Tumblr media
Source: brookings.edu
Category: News
  
Clean Energy Job Postings Reflect a Wide Gap
Fossil fuel companies, despite their public promises to embrace green energy, are lagging far behind in hiring for clean energy positions. A recent analysis by Fast Company of Google Jobs listings between June and August 2024 revealed that traditional energy companies in oil, gas, and coal accounted for just 4% of job postings in the clean energy sector. In contrast, younger firms focusing on renewable energy development and clean technology dominated the job market, comprising 36% and 35% of postings, respectively.
This disparity exposes a gap between the rhetoric and actions of legacy fossil fuel firms. While these companies emphasize their commitment to sustainability in public relations campaigns, their hiring practices tell a different story. For example, a 2022 report by the think tank InfluenceMap highlighted that 60% of PR materials from the five largest oil supermajors touted green initiatives. Yet, only 12% of their capital expenditures were directed toward renewable energy expansion or climate risk mitigation.
Lawmakers and Reports Call Out Greenwashing
The inconsistency between fossil fuel companies’ public claims and their actual investments has drawn scrutiny from U.S. lawmakers and environmental organizations. A 2022 memo from the House Oversight & Reform Committee, led by Chairwoman Carolyn B. Maloney and Chairman Ro Khanna, criticized the industry for misleading the public about its environmental efforts. Internal documents accompanying the memo showed a strategic focus on blocking regulations while portraying a green image to the public.
Although the Inflation Reduction Act offers substantial subsidies to promote clean energy development, these incentives have done little to shift fossil fuel companies away from their conventional practices. According to the International Monetary Fund, the U.S. fossil fuel industry benefited from $757 billion in subsidies in 2022, including both direct financial support and implicit subsidies like pollution cost exemptions. These figures placed the U.S. second globally in fossil fuel subsidies, trailing only China and ahead of Russia.
The Economics of Transition to Renewables
Despite significant subsidies supporting fossil fuels, experts argue that investing in renewable energy presents a better economic opportunity. Cathy Collentine, director of the Sierra Club’s Beyond Dirty Fuels campaign, believes the clean energy economy is ripe with potential. “The economics around moving to renewable energies will, at the end of the day, prove to be a better investment,” she said, noting that the industry’s reluctance to pivot may lead to missed opportunities.
The Sierra Club recently co-authored a report highlighting the financial incentives provided to the liquified natural gas industry in Gulf Coast states. Collentine and other advocates emphasize that while fossil fuel companies continue to reap the benefits of traditional energy subsidies, the long-term economic advantages of transitioning to renewable energy remain untapped.
As the demand for sustainable solutions grows, the fossil fuel industry’s hesitance to shift hiring and investments toward clean energy could have lasting consequences for both the sector and the environment.

Fossil fuel companies are amoral, greedy organizations which have caused untold damage to our planet.  They continue their destructive ways in order to make even more money at the expense of the world’s people and its environment.  
Tax these low-life scumbags out of existence.  Nationalize the fossil fuel industry now.

Knowledge Sharing Series#2
What is the Process that undergoes in Oil Preheating Furnace?
Crude Oil Entry: The desalted crude oil, which has already been heated and mixed with water to remove salt, enters the preheating furnace.
Heat Exchange: The furnace is typically designed with a series of tubes through which the crude oil flows. Hot flue gases, generated by burning fuel (such as natural gas or fuel oil), pass over these tubes, transferring heat to the crude oil.
Temperature Increase: As the crude oil flows through the tubes, it absorbs heat from the flue gases, gradually increasing in temperature.
Desired Temperature: The furnace is carefully controlled to ensure that the crude oil reaches the desired temperature, typically around 350��C to 360°C. This temperature is essential for effective vaporization of the lighter components in the crude oil.
Exit to Distillation Column: Once the crude oil has reached the target temperature, it exits the preheating furnace and enters the atmospheric distillation column, where the separation process begins.
