it has been festering in me for years.


People who know me know that I like "sitting around in the dark" .... No doubt that my eyes are sensitive, they are pale blue and I am getting older, but I have always preferred low light situations. As far as enjoying a dark environment indoors - that seems natural to me. True, now that my visual acuity is diminished I need extra light for critical close-up tasks but for general "sitting around" I strongly prefer low light levels.

My ex- in contrast, was one of those people who turned on every light in the house right away. On a dark winter morning that is absolutely painful to me. And, I hardly ever set foot outside in sunlight without dark sunglasses.

As far as open windows, that can be pleasant (if there is nothing ugly outside like pollen or smoke) but downstairs in an area where there are passersby, no, I don't think so.

This sounds like a deficiency of Beta Carotene which is what coats the back of your retina preventing damage from UV.

Gotta eat them yellow/orange veggies.

Well, there it is, Venezuela's the first country to lose all of its glacier. Its last remaining glacier has melted down to a lower category an "ice field".

We can barely handle 100 million refugees today, projection is 2 Billion refugees @ 2.7Celcius,  Not a single country is ready, or even preparing.

Climate Scientists: We're running out of fresh water, there's gonna be Water-Wars.

-The rest of us, while eating burgers: But why, who's drinking all that water??

Doctors: Never mind that, I need your diabetus money to pay for my german car that I never get to drive because I'm so busy managing your diabetus.

Mcdonalds: My customers are morons, if I sell them something else, they will rebel and go to Burger King.

23 predicted major named storms/hurric for 2024, vs the normal 17.

And that's conservative, other weather agencies are predicting up to 33.

Don't mess around people. Get RDY. Call grandma, bug-out bags at the door.



La nina transition typically makes for a busier season in the Atlantic than usual, this ontop of EXTREMELY warm water this year from el nino.

Hallelujah! Amazing!

SCROTUS actually ruled that the CFPB (Consumer Financial Protection Bureau) is legitimate and constitutional!

Houston, Texas devastation. 1 million people without power. Concrete highrise = deathtraps ?

Climate change is fake news. Even florida legally denies its existence.



Honestly though, why do we even put glass on highrise windows. Why not use plywood with some holes. What's there to see. It's a city, we're in a cage.

Those windows will cost $millions to fix.

The funny thing is he also made it a requirement to have hurricane restoration plans (I.E. insurance)...

So deny the threat but require insurance to cover it, what could go wrong.
The next major one will send insurers running, the few that are left and they'll take their money with them just like they did with Hurricane Katrina. At which point the feds will have to handle it... You know, the ones they way to get rid of.
