I've definitely been met with "we believe in technology making things better" when I confront my parents about the fact that capitalism has no will to make things better.

In solidarity with this statement, I propose the following term to be the opposite of crack ping when one has so much cognitive dissonance regarding capitals will to "make life cool and good always" due to the US public school system and other propaganda:

you heard it here first it's impossible to model anything unless you create a perfect simulation all the way down to the spinning of gravitons. Failing that you need to completely bake up your own theories about food allergies and what would be a world record for insomnia

What was his claim? I ain't watching Jorp.

The confirmed world record is several years of no sleep. (Not in a healthy person, though, that's 11 days.)

He said that "climate" means the same as "everything", and climate change models are useless because they can't account for everything.

I don't take life advice from a guy who got brain damage because his benzo addiction led to a medically-induced coma.

I was more asking about his insomnia claims, since for him to beat the world record he'd be impressively nuts by now.

The way I heard it that was his "getting hosed up" house.

Like he lives a normal life possibly as a lawyer but takes crazy amounts of drugs and makes those videos in that horror show of a place.

So much myth there, I'm sure I got all of that wrong but whatever.

Also glad he's still going.

The new forest plan spells out how to best manage the forest in a sustainable way.

“We’re thinking about how to develop trails with our partners, with our communities, to make sure that they’re sustained over time and that we can cut down on the kind of user-created trails,” Melonas said.

The goal is to keep natural resources like water clean, to ensure a place of recreation and respite and to contribute to local economies. The plan was developed with public input.

“We’ve heard from people who love spending time in the woods with their family and want to maintain those memories for future generations. And then we’ve heard from people whose lives depend on the forest," planning team lead Michelle Aldridge said.

“In terms of forest restoration, we really emphasize the need for more young forests, which is critical to a lot of wildlife species,” Melonas said.

I've been reading Calvin and Hobbes to my 5 year old and it's struck me, that, despite being a little too concerned with NUCLEAR waste, no doubt a product of his time, Calvin is pretty much OG Blackpilled on climate poo poo.

We're only 2/3 of the way through volume 1 of 3 and these are just some of the gems I've found. This first one basically feels like "the way most of us biodoom posters feel about our loving parents' generation".

This is happening in Canada right now. We have five million tonnes of unsecured nuclear waste, and more to come, and the nuclear industry is trying to find a nice little town in the Canadian Shield where they can dig a hole and bury it. And we need to figure out how to keep thousands of years of future generations from messing with it.

Not surprisingly, the towns aren't super keen on this.
