        For the love of christ, stop saying that. Every single time someone makes this comment. We. Get. It.

          Do we? Because the absolutely astonishing sense of self-importance humans have would indicate otherwise.

          Other beings live here, and while humans fuck humans over in the name of greed and power, we bulldoze entire ecosystems without any consideration for the other creatures that lived here whatsoever.

          No, you’re wrong. Most humans live, act, and speak as if the entire world, hell the entire universe, should be bent to better serve our naive, entitled species exclusively.

            It’s a thought-terminating cliche that serves to downplay the problem because “hurr durr the animals will be okay” (even though they actually won’t since we’re in the middle of the Anthropocene mass extinction, but never mind that) and to act as a derailment tactic.

      The one thing that makes me feel better is that all those greedy billionaires will also be dead.

    I always thought it it was frightening enough to realize, if you were born in the 80’s, every year of your life had been the hottest year on record. Will stacking hottest days consecutively hit harder? I get the sense that it won’t hit all that hard until the capitalists can no longer keep off-loading the cost of climate change on the public. The outcry at that stage should be something to behold. I’m really sorry to the younger people watching us all give up, but every year of our lives has been the hottest in history and nobody has done anything about it no matter how willing we’ve been to do our part.
