As well as planting trees we need to stop concreting over gardens.

Our hyper individualist mindset and society will also have to go, because this is a problem that will require each of us doing our part together and becoming more fairer to each other and the Earth.

We treat the world like crap because we think it is crap, when it is just us that are crap. So in order to change the way we behave to the world we have to change the way we behave to each other. Otherwise we will never come together and agree on any coherent plan to stave off climate change.

Climate change is a problem that will be either the making or ending of us, and it’s up to us which of those will happen.

Probably the one where I was on a space station that was being constructed around a purple star somewhere in Orion, 400 years from now. Half of it was exposed to space behind an invisible forcefield and honestly it was the most beautiful view I’ve ever seen and I felt no fear from being that close to space. Pieces of the hull transported into place like Star Trek transporter style as it was being constructed. There were also time and space portals on there too that looked like Mini Star gates that people were coming in and out of like an airport today.

America may be behind but sadly quite a few countries seem to keen on racing it right to the bottom. Nobody seems to learn from all the mistakes it is making.

It’s scary, but also very unsurprising. Companies haven’t seen their workers as actual human beings for many years. That’s the bigger problem that is behind all of this.

They thought they could treat their workers shitty and it backfired spectacularly on them! I only wish karma was this quick and brutal for other firms that treat their workers the same way.

The big problem is that we’re not just up against plain stupidity, we’re also up against organised and weaponised stupidity that is being enabled and fanned by those in power and the media, and also their billionaire backer donors, who want to drag us all the way back to the medieval ages.

That’s much more sadistic and worse than plain stupidity which we are all guilty of from time to time until we learn better. With organised and weaponised stupidity, they don’t want us to learn better, because our ignorance benefits their wallets.

That terminal he is typing on is pretty much the physical ancestor of the terminal emulators we use today in Linux!

Yeah, the sound quality is pretty bad!

I’m now more glad than ever that Reddit banned me when they did, I would have hated to see it yet again becoming even more worse.

I’ll often order stuff from Ebay/Amazon even though the shop is right next door. It’s partial anxiety but also mostly pure laziness.

Weren’t elders/shamans/gurus looked up to as sort of spiritual and worldly advisor/authority figures back then? Granted, it’s not the same as being a chief/leader, but they talked, and their community listened and generally followed their advice.

Explorers 1985! I love this movie to bits and never knew it was considered a flop until recently.

If it helps the nights began to get longer again on the 22nd of June, the day after the longest day of the year! That’s what keeps me going.

We’re advising her to be cautious, not advising her to call the whole thing off. What’s so wrong with that?

It’s quite possible that he is indeed a generous person, but still be careful. Truly generous people like that are very far and few in between, at least in my own experience, so most are usually that nice early on when they want something from you. Not trying to put him down, because we don’t know him… But be careful.

How long have you known him? If you two have only just met or met very recently then it’s very weird behaviour for sure. Heck it’s a little weird him being this forward so soon, if you did know each other only as friends before this.
