No, I'm so insecure that I try to convince strangers on the internet that my life isn't actually a meaningless rat race. -

Originally posted by Speedy Parker Your life sounds fucked. Glad mine is not like what you typed.
Life is a journey, but not in the sense that you're actually going anywhere, more like you're just on a hamster wheel going round and round. That might sound profound to you but I'm really saying nothing at all. -

In an unexpected turn of events the US just experienced one of the largest bank runs in modern history within the past 24 hours. SVB's shares collapsed nearly 80% within the past 24 hours and led to one of the fastest bank collapses in modern US history. Amid record low unemployment and soaring inflation there hasn't been a more confusing time economically in recent memory.
Silvergate Bank, a bank exposed heavily to cryptocurrency, collapsed earlier this week and this is leading many to wonder if there is a contagion going on in the banking system, particularly on the west coast that is exposed to tech and crypto depositors. Venture capitalist have liked this to their "Lehman Brothers moment" and has led many startups across the nation to miss payroll this Friday due their systems being railed through SVB. -
2023-03-11 at 4:31 PM UTC in World to hit temperature tipping point 10 years faster than forecastWe spend our whole lives chasing after things that ultimately don't matter - money, power, prestige - all so we can impress people we don't even like. We're born into a world that's messed up beyond belief, and then we have to spend the rest of our lives trying to fix it, knowing full well that we'll never succeed.
We're surrounded by other people who are just as clueless as we are, all trying to figure out the meaning of life and failing miserably. We create complex belief systems and philosophies to help us make sense of it all, but really they're just elaborate ways of avoiding the fact that we have no idea what we're doing.
But hey, at least we can laugh about it, right? Because when you really think about it, the absurdity of life is the ultimate joke, and we're all just here for the punchline. -
2023-03-11 at 2:29 PM UTC in World to hit temperature tipping point 10 years faster than forecastYes, humans, what a delightful bunch! I just love how we are so incredibly self-centered and egotistical, always putting our own needs and desires above everything else, including the planet we live on and the other creatures that share it with us.
It's just so charming how we have created all these amazing technologies and scientific advancements, but then use them to destroy the environment, exploit each other, and wage wars over resources.
And let's not forget how we are so good at creating social hierarchies and divisions based on things like race, gender, and religion, instead of recognizing and celebrating our diversity.
Really, humans are just the most endearing and lovable creatures on the planet. It's a wonder that we haven't managed to destroy ourselves completely yet!
Oh, and human rights are just the most hilarious thing ever! I mean, who doesn't love the idea of basic freedoms and dignities that are supposed to be guaranteed to all people, regardless of their race, gender, religion, or social status?
It's just so hilarious that we have to constantly fight for these rights, even in so-called "enlightened" societies, and that they are routinely violated with little consequence. And don't even get me started on how much fun it is to watch governments and corporations prioritize their own interests over the well-being of the people they are supposed to serve.
Ha ha ha, human rights are just a real laugh riot. It's almost like we're living in a dystopian satire or something. -
2023-03-11 at 12:18 PM UTC in World to hit temperature tipping point 10 years faster than forecastOh, civilization collapse? Yeah, that's just a conspiracy theory, right up there with flat earth and alien abductions. I mean, who cares about the environment or social justice? Let's just keep burning fossil fuels, polluting the oceans, and exploiting the poor. What could possibly go wrong? It's not like we're seeing any signs of impending collapse, like more frequent and severe natural disasters, mass extinction of species, or political polarization and instability. And those scientists and experts who warn about the risks of collapse? They're just trying to scare us into submission, right? So let's just sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride to our inevitable doom!

It's not like we're seeing more frequent and severe heatwaves, droughts, wildfires, hurricanes, and floods around the world, right? And those melting glaciers, disappearing Arctic sea ice, and rising sea levels? Pffft, just nature doing its thing, nothing to worry about. And those scientists with their fancy measurements and models? Who needs 'em! I mean, who cares about the future of our planet and the well-being of future generations? As long as we can keep burning fossil fuels and making a quick buck, everything will be just fine!

This article discusses the precarious economic and political situation in Pakistan, warning of the risks of default and climate catastrophe in a nation of strategic importance to global powers. The article raises questions about the country's future and who will come to its aid, both domestically and internationally, as it faces mounting challenges. It seems like collapse is accelerating in third world countries. Pakistan's collapse can have international consequences as it has nuclear weapons. Will Pakistan and other developing countries be able to avoid collapse?

This article discusses a recent heat wave in Greenland that pushed temperatures up to 28 degrees celsius above normal in some places. This record-breaking warmth is raising concerns about melting summer ice and is further evidence of the warming climate. This early warm spell could make the ice sheet more vulnerable to melt events this summer, and if the current pattern of high pressure in the area persists, it could lead to more melting and sea-level rise.
