The problem is sadly a bit more complicated. Thanks to the winner takes all system over in america a third party candidate has virtually no chance of being elected. Therefore if you want to counter a candidate you disagree with you have to necessarily vote for the most popular candidate that you can mildly agree with.

Some states have signed a pact to switch to ranked choice voting (i think new york and new hampshire are among them) which will help a lot with this problem on a state level. Only when most states adopt this it will matter on a national level.

Then and only then will it be viable to vote third party.

Indeed. That it most likely is!

Not quite. There was an interesting talk by the devs of slay the spire. If i remember vorrectly they just scraped discord and then made an evaluation of this data and from there generated useful feedback for development.

Well if you really start looking into it, carbon offsets are mostly a scam.

For instance just declaring: "I will cut down this forest" without ever having the intention to do so, and then not doing it counts as a carbon offset. This is what abgreat part of companies are doing. Just saving forests that nobody wanted to cut down in the first place from being cut down. This they then sell to the consumer as a carbon offset.

John Oliver had a great segment on this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6p8zAbFKpW0

I stand corrected. I just almost never go into the second story, since the part of my regular trip, that has a second story is only 5-10 minutes. ^^
