I want to move away so bad

Those professions are people I know irl.

Being carbon negative will take time, like years and years, and no we don’t have the technology for it and how to stopgap the warming that’s already happening.

I hope we fix it. I doubt we will. I mean we are out of time because the amount of carbon we’ve currently released is enough to destroy all human life, it just takes a few decades for that impact to really show up. However, due to optimistic research done by scientists, there are probably numerous cascading loops that will shorten that time significantly.

The US just passed a law automatically signing people up for the draft. Trump is a viable candidate. It very well may go fascist.

Yes

If the commute was included in workplace deaths and injuries, I wonder where it would rank with OSHA’s statistics

NDAs are very much legally enforceable lol. A nitable time they aren’t, is if there has been illegal activity the NDA is trying to compel you to keep secret.

I’ll test the blackjack machines

If this country cared about the environment or workers’ safety, they’d fine companies who make employees work in the office/on site when they could work from home instead.

What’s absolutely insane to me, is that other CEOs think that’s fair and fine and that Elon is very smart and not a con artist? No wonder Elizabeth Holmes got so far. It’s just so obvious he’s not above board

I love playing Flower so much, it’s my favorite calming game

Thank you for that!

It’s happening in Oregon too. An attack on education.

You kidding me? If I spend just 0.1% of that bad boy every year, it’ll last me over a thousand years!

Don’t forget the Pastafarians and their noodly appendages

It looks like turmeric

This kind of discussion always ruins real progress. Are you a psyop or what’s wrong with you? Genuinely curious.

If YOU want to perform activism by making “real change,” then YOU do that. Not everyone can do every thing. Eg at a protest, you might have front line people and medics, who are both important but do different roles. These people the article is about are pretty good with PR, which makes sense because they are younger and raised with media trends.

That emissions are increasing isn’t their fault, they would increase regardless so may as well go crazy and do what you want in the meantime. Nihilism and all

That’s funny, you realize not everyone will jump to the conclusion it was ‘stupid’ right away? Most will say, “they did what? Why?” Aka curiosity. We learn more. We understand. Then we decide if it’s stupid or not.

Goddammit they’re MINERALS, Marie!

Have you ever seen the pictures of the ocean after the gulf oil spill? They never did fix that - they just sprayed chemicals that sunk the oil to the bottom of the gulf, creating a dead zone (with help from agricultural chemical runoff from the Mississippi River). And the people there never did get treated for all their medical issues, even though most of their food comes out of that ocean. That’s also why we need Medicare for all btw - so we can make sure the EPA, CDC, and other government organizations are actually doing their job and people are actually taken care of when something goes wrong.

Probably at least tardigrades
