I didn't say that we were particularly good at it. 😆 😛

But seriously, as was mentioned in another thread recently, what about in advisory roles? And there is also the idea I've seen about early humans being less hierarchical at one time, if that's the case then perhaps our advice might have been more valued? If it was early enough, then that would have been the environment in which we evolved.

Being a buttinsky...

In my models, the earth is pretty much uninhabitable by humans in about another century and a half:

Much of the stuff happening isn't linear, it's logarithmic. Plus "inertia".

We're past the tipping point. The environment is already collapsing. It'll take decades, proceeding at an ever accelerating pace.

Even if we cut emissions to 0 now.

I must stress again that I'm not a climatologist, and my math is questionable, at best.

Horrible thoughts about this coming weekend keep bubbling up in my brain. Moreso than usual, and not just Америка. They scare me with their detail, their intensity, and their frequency.

It's not like my recurring "SpaceX boosters falling onto Google and Meta data centers" dream.

I'm pretty sure it's just my imagination, running away with me (to quote The Temptations), and I'll heave a huge sigh relief when Monday comes around and we're all still here.

In the meantime, I'm a mess.

I keep getting this crazy bad feeling that June 14 is very much not going to be a good day in Америка. The well publicized "No Kings Day" protests coinciding with Puppyfucker's parade... well... it doesn't take a Nostradamus.

I keep imagining something like Kent State, only exponentially worse, and "everywhere", not just California.

In my models, major crop failures will start happening before the end of this decade, and the 30s are going to see some hungry times.

Crops with very specific environmental requirements are already suffering.

🙄 To top it off, with fascism on the rise, the best I can hope for is not to be dragged off to a camp before I die on my own.

I must stress again that my math is questionable, at best.
