2023-09-22 at 10:42 PM UTC in World to hit temperature tipping point 10 years faster than forecastAs a kid late summer was usually hot and dry and now all summer is really wet. Actually temps are a little cooler but very humid. We always had fairly short winters but they where colder and got more snow, now I can go most of winter with just a hoodie or jacket.
Spring and fall now doesn't last as long, seems to almost go from hot to cold. TN always was a wet state but more so now, we get more rain than Seattle but fewer rain days.
May be just my imagination but I see lots of insects I never noticed as a kid or maybe just more. -

Originally posted by jerryb Talking to people my age and older we agree the climate in this area has changed since we where kids so I do believe in climate change. I also believe humans have an impact but to what degree I don't know. Even if humans had zero impact I'd be for doing all we can to have less impact on the world we live on because it still benefits us.
I’ve said it before that even I’m not entirely convinced that climate change is primarily driven by human action. We were already in a warming period before the industrial era, that much is obvious. And there are things we still don’t understand about the cycle of the sun and shit like that. I’m not claiming the science is settled and that I know all the answers.
But my whole thing is even if it was 0% due to human activity, there’s a couple things that are absolutely clear:
1. The earth IS warming rapidly.
2. Burning fossil fuels is an inefficient and messy way to produce energy and we’ve already invented better ways of doing it cheaper and more sustainably. We just don’t take action on it because of pushback from existing financial interests (mainly the fossil fuel lobby).
So whether humans are causing it or not, the sea levels will rise, crops will fail, and extreme weather patterns will become more common. And right now we are doing basically fuck-all to prepare for any of this. We’re not changing our building codes to withstand stronger hurricanes, hotter summers, and colder winters, we’re not hardening our infrastructure, we’re not preparing for periods of extended droughts and famines, we’re not building nuclear plants… and so on.
These are all things we should already be doing regardless of what’s causing climate change because they just make sense to do. But instead we’d rather all argue about whether it’s even real or not meanwhile just keep giving trillions of dollars to the fossil fuel industry and carry on business as usual.
We already subsidize the fossil fuel industry with our tax dollars, all I’m saying is we just slowly transition that money to building up alternatives over the next 20-30 years until eventually we don’t need fossil fuels anymore. And guess what, the fossil fuel lobby knows they can’t keep the money train rolling forever, that’s why they’re already taking steps to become major players in the coming alternative energy market. They’re already investing billions. They just want to milk every last cent they can out of oil and coal before they have to make the transition.
Anyway I think this is a pretty reasonable position that falls somewhere in the middle of all the hysterics that surround this issue, people like Spectral being on one extreme side, and Greta Thunberg on the other. But anyway.

2023-09-22 at 6:27 PM UTC in Which cuisine would you eliminate ?Pasta and pizza are a very miniscule part of the average Italian diet.
French food way underrated. Coq au vin. Beouf Bourguinon. Duck confit.
I actually like Indian food or at least certain kinds. Then again most if the Indian dishes i like most have coconut milk and stuff which tastes a lot like thai food. A lot of it is also like tarragon and raisins and cardamom and HERES SOME TOMATO GARLIC CHOCOLATE GRAVY so idk that could probably go as long as i get thai curries.
idk what even constitutes “American”. BBQ? Burgers? Chowda? We seem to just take the outward trappings of a certain cuisine and then suck all the life out of it and make it less good.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

"No. The level of water in the glass will remain the same."
Alexa, how much ice on earth is located on top of land masses such as Antarctica and Greenland, NOT floating in water?
“I dunno but it’s a fuckload, definitely enough to raise see levels around the world significantly if it all melted.” -
2023-09-22 at 6:17 PM UTC in Which cuisine would you eliminate ?Italian easy. Pizza is cool and all but pasta is like low-flavor high-fat goop dripping off a giant pile of carbs. I mean I'll go to town on a plate of pasta, but also I'd survive if I never had it again as well.
Originally posted by Meikai I love Japan. I am a huge weeb. But I am not a huge fan of seafood, and being an island nation their cuisine is like 90% seafood (the other 10% being variously fermented beans). So… heretical as it feels to say it… Japanese food gotta go.
Nips have a pretty dank assortment of fried shit, katsudon is where it's at. Also ramen. -
2023-09-22 at 6:13 PM UTC in Which cuisine would you eliminate ?Someone said American food isn’t an actual thing but there’s soul food and that’s something I can’t imagine never eating again. Cajun food is heavily inspired by the French and that shit is damn delicious. Saag paneer and garlic naan is one of the best things I’ve ever eaten in my life, so Indian food definitely stays, regardless of the fact that it looks like baby shit. Oh well. Never been sad in a Mexican restaurant. Pizza? Ok. And who doesn’t want to get slapped with a fresh dick every time they eat sushi.
I can definitely live without an egg rool. Y’all are wild.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

2023-09-22 at 4:01 PM UTC in Picking off men behind the nightclubThis does remind me of this idea for a book I had where some depressed guy gets enamored with this crazy chick who’s into committing petty crimes like shoplifting and shit and they start getting into increasingly illegal dangerous thrill seeking type shit together, just feeding off each other's negative energy in an insane self-destructive spiral of sex and violence until eventually they start murdering people.
So anyway the part this reminds me of is where they find out some rapper and his entourage is gonna be at a certain nightclub that night so they show up and kill them all and steal their chains and shit.
I should find where I saved that and start writing again...The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire!
