He doesn’t need to name a successor. His followers just need to be convinced that he named one.

Yes! I’m so sad they’ve moved away from this. I could pull out my phone AND unlock it in the same grab.

Once someone asked if Stephen and Stephen were pronounced the same. Presumably they meant “Steven” for one of those, but the question as written was dumb.

Yeah, but a lot of people come to the agreement that they’ll get married without an official proposal date getting set.

The asklemmy ones are the annoying ones. It’s less a question and more a conversation starter

Carbon neutral means you try to “offset” your carbon. It’s half scam, half helpful. The idea is if your company produces an unavoidable amount of carbon, you offset this by supporting Carbon-free solutions elsewhere making your net production “neutral”. It’s a scam because sometimes the offset is stuff that was never going to produce carbon, and also because using other areas to claim “neutral” causes a weird double count. Carbon neutral is less good of a solution than carbon free, but it’s a step in the right direction.

However, target year of 2050?? Fucking what? That’s not something to brag about, that’s painfully and embarrassingly slow. That’s embarrassingly slow to be carbon free, much less carbon neutral.
