Until we reach peak and head into another ice age. We’ll have tens of thousands of years in cooler temps though.

That’s millions of people pissed off, holding grudges that will take revenge when possible.

Won’t happen. Governments want lifespans shortened.

The entire world is figuring out you can’t please them all, legally.

If, legally, religious attire is allowed as an exception, then they must allow those satanists to wear theirs. Solution? Businesses and service providers can no longer restrict clothing, including if someone wants to work in a bathing suit. Or, face an expensive legal battle.

If long hair on males is forbidden in the schools, then you must be willing to force a Native American to cut his hair. If you are willing to do that, then expect more legal restriction and an expensive legal battle.

All this stuff is going through the courts in various countries in various extremes. Been interesting to watch over the last couple decades.

It was a sewer before Elon. Only when she gets called out via a hashtag, now it’s the reason to leave? Ok. Sounds legit.

Wonder where it is predicted to end up now?

A “once in a 125,000 year heat wave” you say? See you next year!

Only problem? If everything stopped today, we’d see increases in temps for 20 more years.

United getting divided.

1947, a candy bar was a nickel. 2023, how many candy bars can you buy for a nickel?

They are learning and not realizing it. Let’s put down the macroeconomic books and go back to preschool and exchange the dollar bill with an Oreo cookie.

Everyone wants your cookie. It’s rare. It’s the only one. You know you can trade your cookie for supplies to feed your entire family. So you keep your cookie clean, free of stench and prepare to trade it.

Only now, 76 years has gone by and someone stole your recipe and made an infinite supply of your exact cookie.

What will your cookie get you now?

Every time the government prints money out of thin air, your saved dollar gets worth less and less. War drum, stimulus packages, infrastructure, all of it. If they “found the money” by writing up a bill to print money instead of sacrificing the public with extra taxes, the dollar was devalued.

That’s why the “haves” ended up with all the money when they invested in non-fiat stuff like housing or invested it in stocks that will grow with inflation.

The “have nots” rented and spent every dollar they made.

It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to realize every dollar printed out of thin air devalues existing dollars in the marketplace.

How much GDP does this equate to? According to the Cost of War project at Brown University, the failed global “war on terror” cost $8 trillion and caused more than 900,000 deaths over the course of 20 years.

Billions being spent and everyone will wonder why inflation continues to hold strong a year from now.

Where was this when they literally declared war and said “the enemy will pay an unprecedented price?” What did the Palestinian supporters think would happen exactly?

When Israel declared war, what do you think that meant exactly?

You painted a perfect picture. A wordsmith I am not and loved your version better.

All of us on Lemmy collectively can’t make a fingernail dent into the problem. We have no power to stop it. If we did, we’re labeled terrorists against the economy.

If we stopped the economy and stopped all emissions worldwide, this progression would still occur for more than 2 decades.

This is just the beginning for stuff we did since y2k.

By the time we actually make serious change, it will be far too late.

Happy Sunday. Enjoy football.

Most economies need population growth. If births fail to outnumber deaths, all social programs become unsustainable.

If you need to know why governments are taking away women’s rights to choose, it really does boil down to being on the wrong side of sustainability.

Population: The ultimate pyramid scheme that destroys the planet.

By who?

We’re inching closer to nuclear attacks. I don’t think Putin will allow Crimea to fall without it. Someone please tell me I’m wrong and why?

This has been a worry of mine from the moment Ukraine took back the airport and other countries began aid.

I knew this day was coming, just thought it’d be quicker.

You missed Afghanistan’s war huh?
