Chile’s Atacama, the driest desert in the world, has become a dumping ground for Clothing. Approximately 39,000 tonnes of discard clothing, mostly synthetic fibers, are now being dumped in the Atacama annually.

There were birds here, who she blessed with chest feathers absorbent enough to carry water for miles to their children. Bullfrogs, who slept for years in dried out riverbeds... then dug their way to the surface when the rains came. Now... there is only piles of Classiques Entier. Endless polyester... lmao

BIG HEADLINE posted:Oh hey, now I'm a sinophobe for, what, making the case that 560 million people should be able to have better lives if they chose to? pretty loving funny how out of touch westerners are re:china, poverty and the third world the obvious comparison is the other 1 billion population country, capitalist India, and lmfao it loses in every aspect, where the rural chinese are poor rural poor indians die of hunger, where the chinese education system is bad the poorest indians get excluded from it altogether, where the communist party exerts oppressive control over internet talk a modi supporter mob burns people alive and gloats about it, where chinese urban infra is shoddy the indian government is absolutely fine with people using water contaminated by poo poo piss and corpses nobody's taking this china will collapse at any moment bullshit seriously anymore because we've been hearing it all of our lives, the old world is dead, this is the chinese century, and when poo poo hits the fan globally we in the global south will look towards them for help because the "western world" has proven itself time and time again to be a den of terminally inbred idiotic murderers and thieves who're high on their own farts. the chinese communists might prove themselves to be as poo poo as europeans and americans in their relations to the rest of the world as hegemons given time too, but they'd have to try real hard

Pepe Silvia Browne posted:Reminds me of that short story, The Machine Stops. "Man is the measure" The Machine Stops posted:They wept for humanity, those two, not for themselves. They could not bear that this should be the end. Ere silence was completed their hearts were opened, and they knew what had been important on the earth. Man, the flower of all flesh, the noblest of all creatures visible, man who had once made god in his image, and had mirrored his strength on the constellations, beautiful naked man was dying, strangled in the garments that he had woven. Century after century had he toiled, and here was his reward. Truly the garment had seemed heavenly at first, shot with colours of culture, sewn with the threads of self-denial. And heavenly it had been so long as it was a garment and no more, man could shed it at will and live by the essence that is his soul, and the essence, equally divine, that is his body. The sin against the body—it was for that they wept in chief; the centuries of wrong against the muscles and the nerves, and those five portals by which we can alone apprehend — glozing it over with talk of evolution, until the body was white pap, the home of ideas as colourless, last sloshy stirrings of a spirit that had grasped the stars.

Lol this article https://twitter.com/DangerBrooks/status/1457790513927495685?t=LVgKz-dl73GAz0zOB8iZHQ&s=19 quote:Sometimes, in idle moments, I get a vision of my teenage son’s son — my imaginary unborn grandson — manually pollinating soybeans for 12 hours a day in exchange for a ration of drinkable water. I prefer not to linger on this image. Once I have forced my mind away from it, though, to picture said grandson coming home and feeding me my mush, I end up wondering how I will explain to him why it was so vitally important, in the year 2021, that we preserve the normal function of the Senate and respect the personal autonomy of a man named Joe Manchin III. quote:The normal person who feels some obligation to the future and comes face-to-face with this seemingly total failure of our usual systems must ask him-/her-/themself: Would it help if I killed somebody? quote:This feeling is literally maddening. I don’t want to mow the lawn and shop for groceries while permanently trapped in a moral dilemma whose two options are (A) to passively condemn my child and all future children to lives of misery or (B) to become some kind of political-historical assassin. Those are impossibly high stakes, and they render individual experience meaningless relative to the news in a way that I suspect feels a lot like paranoid psychosis or some other variety of losing one’s mind. quote:Environmental regulations are hard to make at home, but it is relatively easy to, for example, go out and sabotage a piece of privately owned equipment in a way that reduces total oil or gas consumption and encourages shifts to renewable energy.

the amerikkkan fascination with individual heroism continues while slyly obfuscating their privileged position where they are incentivized not to rock the boat as not willing to break 'normality' as if it is akin to refusing to eat toast for breakfast rather than forgoing the benefit of being fat and content through their virtue of guarding the borders of the mountain of gold. amen.

Mayor Dave posted:Lol this article Nice to see the waking nightmare I live in reflected in some mainstream media. I am actually losing my mind, every day, from the vicious contrast between the horrible truth and the total inaction around me. The increasing doom is almost a comfort now, since if that really is true I can simply relax, eat the treats the horrible treat machine makes, hold my loved ones, and weep quietly. But it doesn't *really* resolve anything, because the suffering of millions now and billions later will not stop being wrong, and the reduction in deaths and suffering will remain possible even as the world burns, and my heart and mind will still scream in a tone so piercing that even the most potent weed can't plug my ears as it says "This is wrong, this is wrong, this is the worst and most disgusting crime our failed species has EVER DONE, TO ALL LIFE ON EARTH! IT IS A GENOCIDE OF ALL LIVING THINGS, IT IS WRONG, IT IS WRONG, IT IS WRONG" The dichotomy between my comfort and even enjoyment of the day to day and all that is happening now and all that will happen All that will happen It is certain So certain I am losing my mind.
