[The most insanely raw guitar riff you've EVER heard causes your eardrums to rupture.] [You begin to weep.]

It's the return of The Big Post. As tradition demands this list is for a period no greater than a week only.
The below climate and biosphere collapse headlines are for the period: 12/12 to 12/17 of the current year.
No headlines have been omitted consequent to news saturation.
None are spared.

Water, water everywhere, and not a plastic-laden drop to drink; it's FLOODS and RAINS!
A dozen Iraqis loving dead from floods. Rest in peace!
Probably two dozen Filipinos loving dead from Typhoon Rai. Rest in peace!
Californians in Santa Cruz compare recent flooding to the visions of Hell contained in their dreams. Not that bad yet!
Washingtonians look for a path to normalcy following month old flooding. Normal will never return!
Kentuckians, defeated by the God of Wind, turn their demicidal sights on the God of Rain. It won't work!
Cyclone Carmel poses to this writer the question: what category should this be shunted into? This writer knows that the categories will be less and less discrete as we march into the eternal tombs and generally doesn't worry too much about.
Zimbambwens still picking up the pieces of their heart destroyed by Cyclone Adai two years ago. Let us hope they will only have the two year storm to mourn for the longest possible future.
Wildfire burn scars bring mud rivers to Orange County. Be careful what you wish for!
Tijuanan floods kill three (3) camp migrants. Descansen en paz!
Floods cause Spaniards to declare Disaster Zone. We encourage the use of their much cooler term, Catastrophe Zone!
They (the Spaniards) got 300% more rain recently. La ostia!
Torrential rains disrupt Gweruian with crumbling infrastructure.
On the 16th, Filipinos were evacuating Typhoon Odette. Please don't confuse with Typhoon Rai from above! Two typhoons they're getting hosed by 'em both.
In Brazil floods kill 10, displace 20,000. Milk carton futures soaring!
Spain flooding breaks banks in more ways than one. La ostia!
Cyclone Ruby brings heavy rains New Zealand. They seem okay with it, but a bit peeved!
Remembering their ancestors, Greeks receive a pounding (of rain! of rain!).
Bulgarians receive torrential rains. No word on beer impacts.

And I'll huff and I'll puff cause buddy I'm not living through the end of the world loving sober; it's WINDS and TORNADOES!
Midwesterners find little cause for celebration as they add one to the history books. The most hurricane force winds of any storm (derecho) since 2014!

https://twitter.com/extremetemps/status/1471491740754345991

High winds and hail in South Africa.
The derecho made it over most of the US's central corridor. Reports that three midwesterners unable to bring themselves to say "Howdy" to their neighbors. Situation grim.
Coloradan winds would've made the storm a CAT3. Coloradans say they will take what they can get.
Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas have their wildspreads spread by the strong winds. We were hoping they'd get blown out like candles.
Tornado says gently caress a hat trick here's a four-on-em. Unprecedented tornado track in terms of length. All four states agree the traveling was an obvious foul. No penalties called by refs.
If your house blows over take a page out of Kentuckians' books (just kidding, pick up a page off the ground, there's plenty) and burn it for warmth. Grim!
Thoughts and prayers to be sent to Wyoming for their rode closures following 118MPH winds. Wyomings respond that they "Can't complain," anthropologists baffled.

What have water and winds done for ME lately? gently caress it, it's DROUGHTS, HEATWAVES and FIRES!
Drought outlook for Iraqis? Grim!
Not better across the border, Iranians say "Oh gently caress. Well...gently caress."
Extreme heatwave grips Washington. Rime assures us it IS time to panic.
In Chile, school's [dr]ou[gh]t!
Brazilian coffee suggests its time to divest from beans, invest in Extreme Sports Energy.
Wild animals, wildfires, and widely no one care; 17 million animals loving die in Brazil.
Two people not in loving Kansas anymore following fire, drought, winds.

Many loving die or set to loving die in Kenya. Bummer!
It's too hot in Zimbabwe, in addition to being too wet and too windy. World leaders rush to look up "portent" in their Webster's Dictionaries.
Heat maybe bad for crops? Almost certainly. Good luck to the crops!?
Heatwaves can't stop, won't stop.
Warmest, driest December on record for Oklahoma.
Manitoban crops failing.
Amazonian recovery unlikely following droughts. Oops!
Dry summer in Argentina bad for... crops?! Again?!
Herders and farmers gear up to throw down over drought-stricken lands near Lake Chad.
Lake Tuz going Houdini (disappearing, dying prematurely).
Also sharing a border with Iraq, Syria joins the mix as victim of the humanitarian crisis looming in the drought stricken region (NE Syria, SW Iraq, SE Iran).

I'll try to make it so simple a toddler could get it.

you, yourself, as an individual meatsack reading this thread, have a choice. you get to die on your knees mewling like a liberal coward, or you get to go out on your feet like a goddamn adult.

that's it. that's the only choice you have. it doesn't matter in the slightest, it will do nothing and accomplish nothing, your existence will have been just as meaningless either way, and multi-cellular life is loving off for the foreseeable future regardless.

It's a completely meaningless, subjective shift of one's attitude and outlook, it costs you nothing to make it, and yet still you're all regurgitating the same nihilist garbage you've been spoonfed your whole lives.

gently caress all of you. just loving die already.

It's too hot in Zimbabwe, in addition to being too wet and too windy. World leaders rush to look up "portent" in their Webster's Dictionaries.

quote:

He fears that resources will soon run out as more people come to the area. Rivers that originate there, like the Mpudzi, Mushaamhuru, Murare, and Wengezi, are now running dry halfway through the dry season, he says.

“Soon people will fight for the little water left,” he says. Already, skirmishes have broken out between farmers, migrants, and traditional leaders over who settles where and who gets to decide.

Madanhire isn’t alone in his concerns. Josphat Manzini is a banana farmer in Burma Valley, a lucrative farming area in the Eastern Highlands that’s long been renowned for producing the best bananas in the country. He’s been anxious as climate migrants settle on nearby riverbanks and tap the water he needs to irrigate his more than 20 hectares.

Manzini says migrants have overrun several local rivers, taxing water supplies and stirring up so much silt that the debris is obstructing three dams as well as many smaller streams in the area.

Now, for the first time in his life, the prospects for banana farming in the Eastern Highlands are looking bleak. “There is no future here,” Manzini says.
