I assume things still aren’t that bad, yet? It will be a slow and increasingly bitter death too

the best thing you can do with plastic is throw it into the garbage so it gets buried in a landfill, that girlfriend is an ecological hero, as long as she doesnt live near a coastline

Thanks so much, these pencils are really nice, just for future reference though, I'm not a big fan stuff with plastic in it. Now get naked and lie on the sofa so I can draw you  - a healthy reaction

Genuinely, people who can shut out the greatest vulnerability in the world from the person they're supposed to be most honest with confuse/impress me. I can't do it, I have to put it on the table up front that I know we're going to hell and I just want a hand to hold on the ride down in the basket. How do you compartmentalize it so well?

Xaris posted:yo for real, don't do that thing you did. at least not if you don't want to quickly end up cheated on and/or single. I was reading the forums on an old phone that mostly gets used by one of our kids at like 5am, and so my wife had picked it up after breakfast. She said "at first I was confused how <5 year old kid> was on a page about 'Biosphere' but then I saw 'biosphere collapse'. Thanks for keeping whatever that is to yourself this morning, rather than making me hear about it at breakfast"  She is fairly crack/pinged on all this anyway; there's no point. I tell her stuff that I find from here that I think she'll find interesting; the texas well geyser situation and Lake Boned are a good example of that. She doesn't need to be convinced we're pretty well hosed on a global scale, and reminding her of it all the time wouldn't make our interactions more pleasant by a long shot. Everything dies and I burned her out both my inherant doomerism and unanswerable questions long before I found cspam.

Basic Poster posted:Truer words have never been spoken. The only way to avoid isolation is find some bullshit dual power community that isn't cspam (lol) or don't talk about cspam. idk, seems really isolating to not be able to acknowledge reality with your SO. I don’t go on and on about it but we both complain about living on a planet of plastic garbage and having to work doing useless poo poo despite being part of a sentient extinction event that makes the majority of our time we spend toiling away a useless waste of time. I’d not be able to deal with someone in denial if they’re supposed to be the closest person to me in the world

Yeah, having a partner that is on the same page would be ideal but there are massive ideological hurdles to crack pinging and it's hard to meet someone who checks the boxes. For many, it's a choice between being totally alone or biting your tongue Not ideal but that's life

At least imo it's that laughing at the horror is the only way I can function, and sense of humor is the most important part of a relationship. I can't be myself around someone who hasn't crack-pinged, I want to _enjoy_ the rest of this shitshow. So lol yeah this is all tongue-in-cheek posturing, I should be out collecting signatures

Egg Moron posted:Yeah, having a partner that is on the same page would be ideal but there are massive ideological hurdles to crack pinging and it's hard to meet someone who checks the boxes. My wife believes all this poo poo, thinks it's real and will be existential in our lives, but also isn't a doomer on it and basically we both look at this as "life is what it is, and as it changes we'll observe it and do our best to adapt". I shared the story about the Texas well lake and general insanity of the Texas wells with her this morning, she thought it was interesting and Very Texas Indeed. So, she is on the same page with me generally and to the extent I walk around in a spiral of doom, I bite my tongue and just don't say poo poo like "what if we die together with our kids in a hail of bullets / tornado / monsoon", because, okay, it might happen, but life is hard enough right now and it's better to be present in the current moment and find whatever richness, love and pleasure exists, however fleetingly. Someone made a post a few pages back about how this is what God wants because we're in Hell. I don't believe in God or reincarnation, but the buddhist concepts of dukkha and samsara make a lot of sense to me; this is and has always been the realm of suffering, the realm of resource scarcity, the realm of lots of wriggly lifeforms down in the dirt leading strange slimey lives, the realm where pain exists, the realm where desire is insatiable, etc. From that perspective, I am personally no more or less hosed than I would have been at any other point in time. At least poo poo is interesting now. I keep telling myself. wynott dunn posted:Depressing the poo poo out of your normie partner isn’t going to help avert what’s coming anyways If I had a normie partner I woulda had to leave them years ago and use the dreaded CSPAM MATCHMAKER SERVICE

Mola Yam posted:anyway, death is imminent We just had COPE26 which was all about limiting us to 1.5C of temperature rise which was based on flawed data that doesn't truly measure the scope of largely self-reported carbon emissions or account for any other greenhouse emissions or feedback loops which proves conclusively that we have another decade to halt the eventual trend upwards of the temperature to 1.5C at some future date in the 2030s/2040s. Are you telling me that we might be close to hitting that threshold sooner than expected?!?

Car Hater posted:Oh is this why I'm still single? I didn't realize! well for one, her buying some pencil cores in plastic that will end up being landfill or ocean waste has absolutely zero impact in the way things are going to play out, and so reaming her for trying to be nice gets the other poster nowhere good you compartmentalize it by acknowledging that your individual actions have little to no impact and that the best thing you can do is treat those close to you kindly, and the choices you make are for you and your personal conscience more than anything sharing your fears is different than obsessing over individual choices and not being able to not mention how badly things are going at every opportunity. people want to be happy regardless of what is happening to the world and if you want to point out nothing matters every chance you get they’re going to pick to be around someone else who makes them feel happy, and rightly so imo

Their liberatory doctrines allowed in the petitioners no feelings of disquiet or discontentment, they began to lmao and walked away.

Spime Wrangler posted:texas is a deeply cursed land, above as it is below Highly saline water comes out of active wells alongside oil and gas and is injected back deep underground under high pressure. The amount of water injected in the Permian Basin is extraordinarily large and has caused a series of earthquakes around Midland. Potentially, some of this salt water migrated upward and created a pressurized pocket that eroded away cement plugs in the well and escaped to the surface. (If that’s the case, it may be shortsighted that the state has brought in vacuum trucks to hoover up the water from the blown-out well and is reinjecting it into a saltwater disposal well a few miles away.)  west texas.gif
