Which like, I'm in Texas now so that's more literal than I'd like it to be but here we are.

Vox Nihili posted:It's peak fire season in California. Huge heat wave this week plus lots of dry brush. PG&E doesn't want another lawsuit but they also don't want to be responsible for regular maintenance, so they're just arbitrarily cutting off power to any "high-risk" areas now. Tens of thousands of people just won't have power on any given day. Lol we're not competent enough to do our job safely and in compliance with local law so we're just going to not do it. Tell me they can get sued again when someone dies of heat stroke.

VectorSigma posted:i've been on a month-long current-events posting hiatus, and i just gotta say Right? I basically just broke my own and I feel like it's already time for another one. I almost started crying, just like outright sobbing about an hour ago but now I've got the insane joker smile back. How does that even work? I'm contemplating potential career suicide by hassling our corporate sustainability team about their plan for this as if it's anything other than make more computers, faster. Maybe I can convince them to start lobbying for aerosol injection? That will probably matter about as much as my complaining about the treatment of women and blacks etc. To sum up: lol, lmao

gently caress COREY PERRY posted:If you really want to go out in a blaze of glory that might be slightly less meaningless, only approach it from a local immediate resilience perspective (e.g. lobby for them to sponsor cooling centers during heat waves and the like). That is actually a pretty great idea, thank you! Luneshot posted:i would also note that aerosol injection is not a good idea Yeah it definitely isn't something I would choose, but I think it was mdemone who was talking about it in the other thread as being imminently necessary to prevent the worst feedbacks kicking off more or less immediately. It's just another broke brain flailing around helplessly. In terms of immediately constructive advice, I spent a few hours listening to lectures on the bible eightfold path and I feel a lot better somehow, so maybe give that a shot if you're thinking of melting down like I was.

I know it's one of you guys posting on that Twitter. Fess up already! Honestly I find it kind of refreshing to see them just joker laughing with the rest of us gawking at insane numbers that are somehow normal now. It's like an antidote to the constant gaslighting of our political and media landscape.

Perry Mason Jar posted:I've had it for ages from, you guessed it, having had this exact conversation. Two years now at least. At the time I was having this argument in D&D, totally unaware that Jose was handing out probes over here in C-SPAM for pro-Malthus positions. Very funny If it's any consolation, I found your perspective valuable. Reading the OP I felt, yes, obviously contraception and reproductive rights are part of the solution. But your framing is even stronger. In the US access to these rights is largely moderated by money. Solve the money problem and the access problem disappears. I would feel comfortable saying that if you can bring economic justice to areas which presently lack women's rights, they will follow not long after the money. This is the actual solution to the malthusian dilemma. But we're just going to kill the global poor, and then ourselves, because lol of course we are.

Nenonen posted:I read a brief mention that the collapsed candle factory in Mayfield also employed prisoners (who helped in rescue work by making holes in drywalls so people trapped in pockets could breathe), and this was stated like there was nothing unusual about it. I must admit that it doesn't surprise me that slaves would be forced to work during a tornado, but I would still like to hear more if there is any more information on this. Do you mean what happened to these people specifically or how totally normal it is to have slaves working for your American company? Surely our vice president using prison labor to fight wildfires has been discussed here. It's a demon cracker nation my friend.
