If I have to have microplastics in my balls, then the fish do too dammit!
It’s something people don’t realize. We may be a scourge on the Earth, but we’re still nowhere even near the top of the list of worst things to happen to this planet.
As the other reply brought up, Theia crashing into Earth. Flood basalt events. The Chicxulub impact.
We may be able to cause some real awful shit, but we still are nothing compared to what the forces of nature can produce. And just to clarify, I’m not saying this to in any way downplay the seriousness of climate change, or that we should do nothing about it.
One of the most popular recent movie franchises is literally about a guy who goes on a murder rampage because someone killed his dog
Why the fuck did they think this would go over well.
Stares at most PDX games having increasing player counts
How much of this is the lack of people wanting to play strategy games vs the lack of good strategy games
This nation used to kill fascists
We’re clearly not going to get boring or normal, so yeah im cool with undangerous but weird
I’m definitely oversimplifing, but this sort of thing relies 80% on whether or not the SMM can be fucked to make an account on the site
noted fascist is a fascist, more at 5
Guys I’m starting to think that this Trump fellow might not like democracy
I know it’s kinda cheating to bring them up in this context, but the Swiss manage to run trains to very small towns just fine
He’s exactly who the MAGA fuckheads want roaming the streets leading up to this election.
Guys Im starting to think the guy who’s only rich because daddy used apartheid slave labor may not have the best views on race
I think survivorship bias plays into it as well. Yeah, most the stuff on the radio today is kinda meh. Most the stuff on the radio in those days was kinda meh too. All the meh songs got forgotten, and you only remember the bangers. You’ve already seen it happen to 00s music and we’re watching it happen with the 10s.
But yeah, it’s wild how many people look at how accessible different types of music are now and just… don’t go looking.
Car bad, train good
I fucking hate stroads
If we’re going old school, go old school. Oldest kid rides in the bed.
Ah yep, you’re right that’s the one I was thinking of. Both are pretty interesting, forget how young this country is sometimes.
I didn’t get a ton, but I’m so glad I got to see what I did. I’ve been waiting to see the aurora my entire life. Hopefully before too much longer I can finally take that trip to Reykjavik I’ve been dreaming of for so long.
So I went to double check, and I got a fair bit of it wrong.

She was actually the daughter of the woman I thought I was talking about. Her mother married her father at ages 29 and 78 respectively, and she was born one of five children in 1930, living until the age of 90 before passing in 2020.
Not at all an answer to your question, but a very semi-related tangent.
The last receipt of a US Civil War pension passed away relatively recently. She was a young woman who would regularly help out a local older man, a civil war vet with no kids or family otherwise. Towards the end of his days, he married her so she’d get the benefits of his pension, as things were really really tough.
Some of the detail might be off, going off of memory, but that’s the general gist.
