forgive me, Number, for I was weak Hail Number, full of greed. Our Leaders are with you. Blessed are you among metrics, and blessed is the fruit of our doom. Holy Number, Brother of God, prey on us serfs, now until the hour of our death. Amen.

talking to people about climate change is fun because no one even pretends we are going to do anything about it. best you get is a "i'm sure someone will figure it out." i've changed most problem solving in my life to align with this methodology: i never try to fix anything and eventually it stops being a problem or someone else fixes it

Almost no one will admit it, but pretty much everyone would rather die than experience big, structural changes in their lives. Are you going to die right this loving instant from eating a burger or continuing to drive your huge truck? Nope, probably not, so might as well keep on keeping on until the problem resolves or you're killed by something that doesn't give you a choice.

From that page! However, I might have misinterpreted this sentence and failed to look at the table you got that fromquote:Systems involving fourth-order derivatives or higher are accordingly called hyperjerk systems. I propose that capitalism be considered a hyperjerk system

This won't be news to anyone in this thread but this is a nice succinct video nonetheless and a good watch. A good share too, if you like sharing stuff to less crackpinged friends. Earth's Temperature Has Changed WILDLY, So What's the Big Deal About a Few Degrees? (PBS Terra) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkqDJwTIg_E Something I didn't know though, which this video goes into: it is thought (no scientific consensus, but theorised) that the advent of agriculture actually stopped the Earth dipping back into an ice age (at 5:00 in the video).

i tried to talk about climate change a little bit with some family over the holidays, mainly because a couple people mentioned several times about how warm it was and had been. we talked about all kinds of things, but the conclusion was "well we've solved every other problem, we'll solve this one." i was just kinda exhausted with the conversation at that point and gave up. ... the same person a day prior had suggested that people who don't vote Democratic don't deserve social benefits, so, my occasional conversations with family/friends that just watch msnbc/etc. makes me feel more hopeless than any right-wing bullshit or doomer youtube video

You can't convince someone of the reality. They have to get there on their own in my experience E: none of you can affect the outcome, why bother?

i bother because you never know who sees the ongoing destruction of the biosphere and thinks they're alone in their conclusion that we need drastic action, immediately, on an untold scale. people need to know that they're not alone in what they are otherwise convinced are wrong opinions. at least one person involved in these conversations was getting it. you never know who thinks and sees the same things you do, but feels isolated and needs to hear they're not alone. it's an attempt at combating domestic american isolationism. discuss important matters with people, instead of discussing what you've heard ABOUT those matters on the news. my own dad is the master of just saying "did you see this on fox news?" but then doesn't have anything to actually say about the matter. after a short conversation about PEOPLE, not politics, he's saying that people crossing the border just want a better life, and we should help them. the exact opposite of what he hears on tv. i'm also a union organizer and know that people talking about their real feelings, not the party line, is what can bring them together. i've seen it happen.

Rauros posted:Sea of methane sealed beneath Arctic permafrost could trigger climate feedback loop if it escapes. isn't it obvious? the clathrate gun is going off right now, 2023 is what that process looks like: I would blow Dane Cook posted:Furthermore: by the start of 2025: +3.0 C over baseline by 2030: +8.0 C over baseline by 2040: +18.0 C over baseline by 2050: +28.0 C over baseline by 2100: +78.0 C over baseline however, the rate of heating is accelerating. the second derivative of heating? that's also accelerating. so realistically, actual rates of heating are going to be significantly higher, and it's only going to keep accelerating until there's nothing left to release and nothing left to burn. an apocalyptic runaway clathrate reaction isn't a hypothetical anymore, it's already happening. we're about a year into that process. we're going to look back on 2023 as the last 'normal' year before the great dying really began in earnest. gently caress it, go ahead and scream if it helps you feel better. this rollercoaster's going down anyway, might as well scream a little
