I haven't gotten a sense that trump is trying to get out in front of anything so I think he is oblivious to it. I did notice they were starting to say things like "collusion isn't a crime anyway" on Fox News though.

If you're a millennial you will see most wildlife die and most of the world population die of exposure. Yeah, man, people sure had it worse! Maybe that's even true, but absolutely no one had a better deal than the boomers.

I'm too young to have actually experienced the Reagan presidency, but from what I understand it was much closer to Trump's presidency than any other administration. Reagan was a buffoon who was plagued with scandal, made terrible foreign and domestic policy, and marked a significant change in acceptable rhetoric in politics.

This poo poo was 30 years ago now and that same rear end in a top hat that heralded a turn towards meanness, pettiness, and retardation is too nice, virtuous, and eloquent by Republican standards to even make a blip on the radar.

I really hope the Trump Presidency marks the breaking point for this trend and we start moving back towards sanity.

Reagan could at least deliver a loving speech and had previously been a governor.

Trump is a walking undiagnosed mental patient who's never served anyone but himself a day in his miserable life.

This is what a lot of people don;t get about healthcare. I don't think the majority of US citizens have had extended hospital stays but I could be wrong. I never have. I imagine once you do, your attitude changes a little.

From a couple pages back but yeah, your attitude, even if it was already "Our healthcare is trash", turns even sharper when you're hospitalized for a couple days over a kidney stone that's too big to pass, so they want to operate on you to get it out, then on the day of the surgery they call your guys to make sure everything's correct and your insurance decides they have a problem somewhere and aren't actually covering this, so since you can't actually pay for this, they take the IVs out and wheelchair you out of there and you're just kinda told "Welp sorry, they can probably do that sound thing somewhere nearby and break it up instead!" so you get to be in unmedicated agony for even longer.

American healthcare can rot in the deepest pits of hell alongside the people who continue causing/enabling it to be so horrible. Also while mine unfortunately come from other kidney poo poo, hot tip, don't get kidney stones.

not really, anything built on melting permafrost (which is already happening) is hosed

e: pg 15 from Field Notes From A Catastrophe by Elizabeth Colbert:

"One of the first stops on Romanovsky's tour was a hole that had opened up in a patch of permafrost not far from his house. It was about six feet wide and five feet deep. Nearby were the outlines of other, even bigger holes, which, Romanovsky told me, had been filled with gravel by the local public-works department. The holes known as thermokarsts, had appeared suddenly when the permafrost gave way, like rotting floorboard. (The technical term for thawed permafrost "talik," from a Russian word meaning "not frozen.") Across the road Romanovsky pointed out a long trench running into the woods. The trench, he explained, had been formed when a wedge of underground ice had melted. The spruce trees that had been growing next to it, or perhaps on top of it, were now listing at odd angles, as if in a gale. Locally, such trees are called "drunken." A few of the spruces had fallen over. "These are very drunk," Romanovsky said."
I think that's from pre-2010 even
