an even more frightening perspective

Back on topic:

It’s been raining here on and off all week.

It’s kinda pleasant in itself, but April is otherwise usually a snowy month here, and we normally don’t see this kinda weather til June.

3 degrees by the end of the century is now the “optimistic” goal, apparently…not 1.5

Sadly, beyond description, news like this makes me wonder if I could have kids with a clear conscience these days.

Oh, and mods, would you mind banning this guy?

Have kids?

good god, I just had a brief,but aggressive conversation with an employee who apparently is an avid climate change denier. My fucking lord....insane. Just a complete lack of grasping mountains of evidence and sources proving the contrary. Incredible and really painful. I guess, his opinion carries just as much weight as every scientist for the last 100+ years.

His reasoning? we had an ice age 10,000 years ago so it can't be real. What?

Oh also, this county was hotter 4 years ago than it is today, so..boom, proof it's all a sham. what....the fuck?


It's essentially what I imagine a real life conversation would be like with Q on the basketball board or poli bored.

my general rule of thumb for my everyday real life interactions with real people. i only discuss:
chicks
music
sports
television

that's it. I have never had a problem with anyone. if i limit the interaction to that.

I didn't bring it up.

in that case my response is always "i don't know anything about it."

i could've done that.

but my tongue was bleeding from biting down on it and I opened my mouth instead

[TDub]

also it's 52 degrees and raining today...and its almost June so of course I'm the idiot....aye aye aye. I will note that and remember to never rely on his opinion for anything that requires braincells in the future.

[pdub]

in that case my response is always "i don't know anything about it."

Which is very likely true.
