Unprecedential Distinguished Doomer, born at 320 ppm with population at 3.3 billion, It’s the Overshoot, stupid. Humanity may be doomed, but we don’t need to lose our humanity.
The dems always seem to have enough jobbers to cause them to lose on progressive bills. Joe Manchin and Kirsten Sinema were the jobbers under Biden. They reminded me of the wrestler Frank Willams from the 80s.
PSA: Children should not play on or near the pump jacks right next to their schools. That might be dangerous.
This headline from the Times is just further proof how fucked we are. “A Summery Winter in California: Time for Speedos and Ice Cream” “‘I know this is bad. It’s awful for the world,‘ said Nereyda Valdez, 30, as she sat in Dolores Park in a white bikini. ‘But it’s beautiful.‘“
Don’t know if this comment from Rahmstorf might shed light on what you’re sensing.
Wow! We put despicable sociopaths in charge! U.S. Energy Secretary “Wright picked up a glass flask filled with the thick, low-quality but incredibly abundant Venezuelan crude…nodded a smile at the cameras and KISSED the glass.”
Climate protesters demonstrate the media‘s approach to the climate collapse.
This was an episode of the Twilight Zone. AI is going to cook us by speeding up global warming.
Somebody thought this was a good idea. From the Musee Mechaninque, an antique arcade game.
From Peter D Carter INCREASED ARCTIC WETLAND EMISSIONS Copernicus surface methane 1 July 2025 Global warming feedback methane emissions IPCC does not account for wetlands. This can only increase with accelerating warming, highest in the Arctic.
Reminds me of the story where a Zen monk was chased off a cliff by tigers. He’s hanging onto a branch as mice chew the branch. He’s going to die no matter what. He finds and eats a strawberry.
From comments: “Michael Mann is a Hero, all my Love & Respect goes out to Michael Mann. You all show some Awe, there are a lot of people deserve our respect, Mann is for sure for everyone in the Top 10, …, there has to be a Monument with Michael Mann pointing onto a Diagram and this is no joke”
News journals need more photos like this when reporting on heatwaves. They keep making heatwaves look like a it’s just going to be a wonderful day to be outdoors.
It’s been beautiful in the San Francisco Bay Area. Enjoying it until we get our next heatwave. With the undulating jet stream, we can’t predict what’s going to happen. Old image below. I say that if you’re under a breast, you’re okay. If you’re in the cleavage, you’re out of luck. Mother nature.
Took a break from the doom-scrolling machine today. Instead of a scroll, I took a stroll, in the woods. Was a beautiful day! “When the situation is hopeless, there's nothing to worry about.” Edward Abbey (By way of Guy McPhearson)
Reminds me of “Bright-sided” by Barbara Ehrenreich (RIP). She saw toxic positivity as a cult connected it to evangelicals. The poor woman was suffering with breast cancer, and people kept insisting that she remain positive, or she would cause her cancer to get worse. She wasn’t having any of it.
