Rectal Death Adept posted:I've seen 3 separate groups of people smugly go "Checkmate, Climateailures" over this same article Rapid Atlantification along the Fram Strait at the beginning of the 20th century A smooth brained idiot will, of course, absolutely point to this and claim it as evidence that warming is a natural function. Anyone who has been following this for a while will feel their stomach drop a few notches as they put two and two together: The process of climate warming is an exponential function, starting out gentle and leading to a hockey stick in due time once it really kicks in. All of our modeling is based on an assumption that we are on the relatively flat part of the doom curve still, based on an assumed start date in the early 1900's, and any projections regarding impacts thus depend on us not yet at the brief sharply vertical axis immediately before the death of all things. Everything which has been happening, seemingly decades before it was "supposed to" based on current modeling? That bizarre situation we've been in for years now where everything is breaking down faster than expected? How many times have we said that, or heard it, in the past few years? All of these feedback loops beginning to trigger out of the blue when even "worst case" RCP 8.5 has them stable for decades still? Permafrost melting out 70-90 years ahead of schedule? Greenland shedding ice like a dog in the springtime? That's because it's assumed we're still on the gentle horizontal, with time to brake before we hit the wall. If this paper is correct, we are not. We already heading up that vertical axis of rapidly exponential doom. We ran out of runway twenty years or more ago. Our models are inherently forward shifted, that's what this article is saying bluntly. If the data is correct, and the arctic was warming that fast, that early, the modeling is wrong. Any projections coming out of it regarding impacts on weather patterns, triggering of feedback loops, and forward warming by X date, are decades in the past. I have to wonder if this is why they quietly shifted the "pre-industrial" date for modelling forward from the 1800's, back in the mid 2010's. They knew. Good poo poo, good poo poo. What a banger of a week this has been. Rime has issued a correction as of 01:38 on Nov 26, 2021 |

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2021/nov/25/fertilizer-shortage-north-america-farmers-food-prices North American fertilizer shortage sparks fears of higher food prices Warning to ‘get your fertilizer now’ as farmers postpone nitrogen purchases, raising threat of rush on supplies before planting season A global shortage of nitrogen fertilizer is driving prices to record levels, prompting North America’s farmers to delay purchases and raising the risk of a spring scramble to apply the crop nutrient before planting season. World food prices hit a 10-year high in October, according to the UN food agency, led by increases in cereal crops such as wheat and vegetable oils. The Texas Arctic blast in February and Hurricane Ida in August disrupted US fertilizer production. Then, prices of natural gas, a key input in producing nitrogen, soared in Europe due to high demand and low supplies. Global urea prices this month topped $1,000 a tonne for the first time, according to BMO Capital Markets. Russia and China have curbed exports. Global nitrogen fertilizer sales were worth $53bn in 2020, and prices are at least 80% higher so far this year, according to Argus Media.

Was it this thread that had the long, sudden, unexpected derail about dental hygiene and the dangers of infection? Because, if so, I would like to thank you all for ramping my personal anxiety beyond the stratosphere. Waiting a few more weeks to afford getting multiple teeth pulled and then immediately losing my job in the resulting downtime. Or dying from infection in the meantime, I guess? Lmao lol

Just as a general rule of thumb - any problems in your head in general can get to your brain or important nerves real fuckin' quick. The mouth is a common vector because, well, food + regular gas exchange + warm = bacteria playground but just in general don't mess around with things gone wrong around your brain meat case.

The mouth is a common vector because, well, food + regular gas exchange + warm = bacteria playground but just in general don't mess around with things gone wrong around your brain meat case. I had a root canal in like 2008, the tooth it was on had a contained infection, dentist was like "we're closed this weekend so just go to the ER if there is any issues". Went to bed with some medium dental pain thought it was just the freezing wearing off. Woke up, face was inflated, got my roommate to drive me to the hospital. Walked in, there was a dude with a piece of metal in his leg, some dude holding a knife in his arm. Go up to the nurse and I'm like "Id like to see a doctor" He's like "What for?" and looks up and is like "oh" I joked that it was my ankle. I was in seeing a doctor in less than a minute. An IV in my arm in less than 5. Also a doctor explained to a resident why it was the case. They do not gently caress around.

To be honest considering how dangerous infections of the mouth can be that was probably the right call on the triage. Hell they might have even done it in the states! For tens of thousands probably
