released from permafrost


Permafrost is possibly the thing I worry about the most.
How the hell or why did you become a DEMO-crat?” He asked.
“Long story, but it started with Nixon, then I was educated and know history as the Republicans are all about getting power to exploit it to their benefit, while Democratic politicians, for the most part, are for distributing things more equitably. I’ll finish with the overwhelming sociological and psychological evidence in studies that identify that conservatives see the world through inherent inequity where the elite or those who seek to be elite are superior to the commoners, and it is they who should lead. At the same time, liberals look at the world as inequality and seek to make the world more equitable, and that all should be represented. Ultimately, conservatives trust those in authority, while liberals inherently distrust those in authority to take advantage for themselves or their constituency.”
He looks up and says, “No one ever explained that to me, and then asks, “If **** Cheney thinks that Trump is that bad, then it's not about DEMO-crats vs Republicans, is it.”
I resume walking and then say, “Hey, you got it; it's the Democratic and old Republican parties versus Trumpism, which is American fascism aided by the Russians.”

This was during the 2016 El Nino,  much the same this year possibly.

Air temperatures around Mamirauá topped 40C for days and the absence of rain and clouds cooked Amazon waters in the sun. In Lake Tefé, a tributary of, and gateway to, the western Amazon .... Fleischmann .... measured water temperatures above 40C between 3ft and 6ft underwater.

Fleischmann was distraught. “Nobody ever saw anything like this before. I saw 70 river dolphin carcasses along the lake and one animal still agonising. It was about 4pm and very hot. I watched a dolphin swimming in circles, struggling to survive. It was horrible. We didn’t know what to do or how to help it.” Not only was it hot and dry, but more than 7,000 fires raged across Amazonas state.

Holy ****! Having been swimming in rivers and lakes, I know that the water generally gets cooler when you go down a few feet.

Everyone needs to m0ar-veggies fohat, there's no other option.

We essentially need everyone to 99.99% veggie to turn this climate change around.

90% of Amazon rainforest deforestation is due to the demand for grazing BEEF cattle. Brazil is a vassal state, they have no political or economic will of their own, this situation is almost entirely Our-fault ('murica).

Wait a few years, you may get some.

Had a conversation today, with an ignorant person, which is just about 99% of persons.

Tried to tell him about the ICE MELTING.

Putting it most simply, the Ice takes millions of years to make.  If we lose all of it, we would almost double the heating on the planet, as the blacker ocean increases the heat absorbed, while the missing ice no longer reflecting radiant energy back into space.

<This is a planetary boundary> What does that mean, it means if we cross a threshold, we can not go back. Nature just has to hit the reset button, kill everything, and start over.

His argument literally was, well we have refrigerators, the government can easily turn this around by investing in the technology to transport heat away from the arctic.


He's not a dumb person per se, but there are such MAJOR gaps in people's knowledge, that there is no point of DEMOCRACY, in fact, depending on timing, democracy could well be the most dangerous thing..

If you were trying to save the planet right now.  You'd really just have to kill your way to the top of this Idiotic Heap, then turn this around via Incredible violence.   This must be done, because there's no time, and no alternative.


Tp4 can only watch the world burn, because he's got neither power nor annex to power.  He's got some annex to money, but that's useless, because capitalism is good for nothing but burning. Every modern economic machinery is designed to burn or kill something, this includes ALL of clean energy.


For reference, the most efficient electric heat pump system we produce is only 3:1 , use 1 watt to Move 3 watt of heat.  It doesn't move it into SPACE,  only somewhere ON EARTH.   So even if we had a heat pump big enough, turning it on would instantly kill us.    It'd be like lighting another fire in the burning house we're already stuck in.

At least the arctic and antarctic regions are where the least direct sunlight reaches in.

Clade 1-b  Mpox.  10% fatality.  Ongoing outbreak in Africa. WHO has declared global emergency, which is the HIGHEST level of alarm in international health law.

Sweden and Thailand has reported their 1st cases of Clade 1.   Current estimates show only 1% fatality rate, but that's pretty bad already.

Previous US infection was the less deadly Clade 2, 0.2% fatality.

Don't touch anything. Go to costco, GO HOME.

Liquified natural gas (LNG) is At least as bad as coal, Likely worse.  Cornell study.

Reason:  Methane Leak across the entire process stack.

Yay Fracking... !! Woooooo !!

Sigh.. Israel wants to find out the hard way, how it only took ~30 people do a 9.11 against the United States, the most powerful country on the planet.

I just hope they don't drag us into this further.  Which harris and trump both seem intent on doing.

Currently don't have a jacket for this Winter due to slipping on ice last year and ripping it. Either need to repair my old one, or steal one off a bum, cause I have a feeling this is gonna be a frigid Winter.

Anyone know where to take a ripped leather jacket to be fixed? I tried a dry cleaners, but they said they don't work with leather.

Shoe repair places do leather in any form, I used to take purses and jackets for fix there.
