We are at 1.6° C over pre-industrial levels now.

We were supposed to have stopped at 1.5° C.
The value 2.0° C has been described as when things really start to hurt, and with climate change lagging behind emissions, and global emissions increasing, it is not possible to steer away from it.

No, those # are out the window, and they were complete bull**** to begin with.  Those projections were largely based on NETs, negative emission technologies, that are "projected" to be "invented" in the future.

A large portion of the IPCC 6 report scientists polled expect us to hit or break 3C, even 2C is fully dead.

This is going to become absolutely CATASTROPHIC.

The palisades fire alone, is projected to be around $10 billion in property damage, each one of these houses is 4 - 20 million.

Climate change is NOT REAL. You're all a bunch of hoax-people. Why won't you STOP LYING.

Tp4 following the palisades fire.

And.   Honestly,  there is a God. Because what are the odds, just burn a crap ton of rich people's houses, in the absolute richest craves on earth.

Guess one could argue, well, alot more poor people suffer before during and after, sure. That's the worst case being, there is no God, and this is absolutely the end.

But overall this is probably the best thing that could happen to humanity, wake up, your money won't save you, we're all probably going to die horrifically even if we did everything right from this second forward.


The insulation that the average middle class and up, thinks they have, it's really paper thin. House of straws.


Biblically speaking, the christian bible is just plagiarized from old Sumerian accounts/legends. They had the whole identical biblical flood story well before christian cultism.


But realistically, looking at the sumerian's capacity, and their reach, which was quite vast, they easily crossed 3000km towards india for those stupid blue rocks.


Any large civilization heavily alters the landscape on which they live, destroying the original balance of organisms, micro and macro.

They didn't know back then, but we know now this is a highly REACTIVE system.   So it might seeeeem like GOD is punishing the lying priests and corrupt kings,  when in reality,  it's just a rubberband system of local ecology, we know the amazon creates its own weather system, atmospheric rivers, etc.   Globally, there is a reactive system For Rain and For FIRE. When the band snaps.  These dumb monkeys better pay attention.

You know, they've "proudly" touted online and in the newscycle how great California's fire fighting army is. 10000 personel, xx fire truck xx planes, xx helicopters.


Here's the thing, All that stuff uses gasoline, the people are fed by farming equipment that runs on gasoline.  So really, we're fighting FIRES with GASOLINE.

Wonder why it ain't working.

Professor Char Miller of Environmental Analysis and History at Pomona College and the director of the Claremont Colleges' environmental analysis program:::

"The winds were TOO strong.
The flames were TOO intense.
The Topography was TOO dangerous.
And that is a perfect storm."


Tp4:::
Largely absent in the aftermath rhetoric,  Too many cars on the road, too much fossil fuels burned, too many luxury urban development.

WHO TO BLAME, well, EVERYONE.

BUT MOST important, and Missing in all conversations,  ANIMAL AGRICULTURE being the primary contributor to climate change when land use opportunity cost is taken into account.. The 43% of earth's dry land surface dedicated to animal agriculture is 3X the total carbon emitted since the industrial revolution.

Man, I hate humanity. Human's ability to commit opportunistic evil for personal gain knows no limits.

I hate humanity.


It is a good thing that voters select such excellent role models - who bring their sterling friends along with them.

“The reason they call it the American Dream is because you have to be asleep to believe it.” - George Carlin

"Politicians have been proving Carlin right for decades. The GOP and the second Trump Administration seem bent on doing what they’ve always done, sometimes even turning the American Dream into the American Nightmare. Taxes are a major contributor, especially the billions upon billions that the rich and corporations don’t pay. Trump and his fellow Republicans are committed to keeping it that way — and, if their slim Congressional majorities can stick together, to do even more for those who need it the least. As one small example, the overall corporate tax rate could drop to 20%; domestic manufacturers could do even better, ending up with an effective corporate rate of 15%. The federal tax code is famous (and infamous) for its huge handouts to those with the highest incomes, the most egregious being the cap on Social Security taxes."

That's ingenious.

He and every poor person SHOULD steal from the rich.

How do you think anyone gets "That" rich. It's a system of theft/kleptocracy and classist warfare which Funnels Upwards.

I don't understand NT's dismay, considering he's not even that rich.


Stealing from the poor is wrong.  Stealing from the rich is JUSTICE. This is canonical in every book worth reading.

I never cared for Musk, but the past few years have cemented him as one of my least liked individuals on the planet. I think he's actually worse and more damaging than Trump.

This is not the same lens as the Luigi vs Health Care. I'm not one for anarchy, society needs guardrails and consequences. But we need those consequences going both ways or everyone is in danger and nothing works.

Yes and no.  Under the guise of an infinitely expanding, unlimited growth society. An oligarchic system works fine.

Within the Confines of the earth's ecosystem, the Imperialist regime we have ensures our extinction.  We need communism powered by AI.

powered by AI


Like Sky Net, my guess is that almost any AI would eventually determine that humans themselves are the problem, and therefore eliminating the problem would "solve" it.

We don't know, but it's better than what we have now.

Turkish ski resort fire kills 66 people, 51 injured.

This is why Tp4 never goes outside. It's so dumb. You go outside to play in the snow, and end up DYING IN A FIRE.

You might think, who cares TP, it's just rich people dying, they're paying for their hubris and kleptocratic life-style. Yea, true, but sooearly there were plenty of poor middle class people who saved up all year just to end up roasted.

SMOKE is more deadly than flames, the smoke can suffocate in as little as 30 seconds. This is what happened in Japan when Kyoto Animation studio was set on fire by a crazy anime otaku who thought they plagiarized his fan-script. The Studio staff tried to escape upwards through a stairwell, but the smoke killed the 34 people attempting to flee.
