Futurology Today

A US think tank that recently opened a Brussels office to lobby for aggressively lower taxes is received with open arms by the Commission. But who is behind the organisation, and who funds it? The Transparency Register fails to reveal dark money flows – in the Tax Foundation’s case from US right-wing libertarian sources – and as such clearly needs a make-over.

The US Securities and Exchange Commission told a federal judge in New York it wants to “explore a potential resolution” of its enforcement suit against the Winklevoss twins’ Gemini Trust Co. cryptocurrency exchange.

After some thought, the recently created original group https://kbin.earth/m/2010s didn't have "music" in the actual group name, and therefore wasn't super-obviously a music group, so we're relaunching as https://kbin.earth/m/2010smusic

In kbin, you can't just change a community's name, so the mod had to create an entirely new /m or magazine.

I hope y'all will post your favorite music from the previous decade and help us build our community!

Fry wakes up in the future thinking he’s lost everything—his family, his name, his place in the world. But in Luck of the Fryrish, it goes deeper. You watch as he remembers the one thing he had: his four-leaf clover. A symbol of who he was—lucky, determined, Fry.

So when he finds out someone in the future took his name and the clover?

He thinks his brother Yancy betrayed him. Stole his identity. Buried his memory.

He’s furious. You’re furious.

Until the end.

“Here lies Philip J. Fry. Named for his uncle. To carry on his spirit.”

You realize Yancy didn’t steal anything.

He preserved him. He named his son after the brother he lost—so Fry would live on. So someone would remember.

And just like that… the anger drains. And what’s left is grief. And love. And something so raw, it sticks with you for years.

This episode isn’t just about family. It’s about the stories we tell after someone’s gone.

Did this one hit harder than Jurassic Bark for you? Or just differently?

Not really sure what the word is of what I'm looking for but...

I'm after chest freezer. It doesn't need to be working as I only need the shell.

I was thinking that I may be able to go to a recycling site and ask the staff there or something like that? I'm not sure if this is really a thing but I've definitely heard of people finding things that people have thrown away etc.

Do I just need to drive around my city looking for fly tipping/skips?
