i got to eat a piece of pork stomach this weekend π
Whatβs wrong with pork stomach? Check out moneybags over here with his fancy bacon.
Pretty sure climate change is already here.
Yep, have to do all those things all the while it's too hot/humid/cold/wet/dry in some wild random combination.
That, unfortunately, is true.
My advice is to live your life as best as you can without worrying too much about things you can't control. Try and build a life around yourself that'll help you be happy through it all, regardless of what happens. Enjoy your 20's. 30's are good too and 40's don't suck either.
To paraphrase Sun Tzu: do not choose a path to victory. Instead, choose a strategy such that all paths lead to victory.
And don't have kids.
Don't want em to suffer worse shit down the road.
Have kids if you want. It's just insane to me to plan your entire life and make major decisions on a cataclysm that may or may not even occur in your lifetime; and it (climate change) may present in ways that we can't even imagine now.
Edit, fine, fuck me, it's raining fire and brimstone out there, billions of people are dying in the streets, the horsemen of the apocalypse are here, it's game over for the human species, my bad. Nobody have kids, it's over, might as well just shoot yourself right now.
Um... It's literally happening right now. They told our grandparents "it'll be your grandchildren who will really suffer"
We're the grandchildren. Food and water shortages, people dying from the heat, floods, pandemics. All of it is happening in first world countries. The US, Europe, China... Last year, this year, next year
We're past the "slowly gets worse" phase. We fucked around for that. We're starting the "find out" phase

This one's kinda loaded. Imagine everyone just stopped having kids. We'd be extinct.
We don't need to pump them out like we're recovering from a war.
Also whose gonna take care of all our old asses in the future? Society was kinda built on this system.
But yes, the population overall does need to decrease.
I don't care if we go extinct. Once I'm dead reality shuts down since I can only experience it from my POV.
And it's cute you think we're gonna allowed to retire instead of dying at work or homeless. Real cute. We won't have the same luxuries as the damn boomers.
100% agree. We are so fucked for retirement. That term should almost be removed from the dictionary, since it will no longer exist π
This oneβs kinda loaded. Imagine everyone just stopped having kids. Weβd be extinct.
Good
Also whose gonna take care of all our old asses in the future? Society was kinda built on this system.
Let us suffer. If we even make it far enough for that to be an issue.
Don't forget political hell and asshole politicians trying to destroy social security
Male pattern baldness is the correct answer actually
Why is it always a male pattern? Can't I get like... A bear pattern baldness or a hawk pattern baldness?
It's winter where I live. Temperature should be around 10ΒΊC but some places registered 30ΒΊC. And this week we'll have our 4th hurricane of 2023. My house is old and I fear soon I'll wake up without a roof.
My anxiety is so bad today. I keep trying to find new ways to deal with it, meds, meditation, exercise, but how the fuck am I supposed to keep up?

On the bright side you can retire to a coastal town without having to actually move house.
Lots of people claiming they give a shit about CC online and yet the number one selling vehicle segment is large trucks and SUVs. And not just in the US, but in Europe and elsewhere larger, taller, thirstier SUVs and crossovers are the rage. Consumer's buying habits aren't really changing all that much in all manner of product segment.
I think this cultural blame on SUV/truck drivers is misguided, and I pedal a bike to work and share a car with my wife. While I try to make responsible decisions, the impact I can have on the environment is tiny in comparison to large corporations and billionaires. Largely my "sacrifice" is meaningless, past giving me exercise and making me feel good about my decisions. If every middle income or poor person in the world did their best within the system to make responsible environmental decisions we would still be headed to, and in, a climate catastrophe. Policy has to change and corporations have to be forced into making more responsible decisions. An electric car is still an incredibly inefficient use of energy. But I can't force my city to add public transit to make not owning a car viable. Large properties and spread out infrastructure is also killing the environment, but I can't personally force city councils across the country to scale back single family zoning in favor of multi use zoning.
The main place regular people are failing is not what they drive, but who they vote for, imo.
Whatever, you really care abouy CC? Push china and india. Nothung you can do by "walking to work" bunch of BS teying to get "social points"

It's almost as if we should be spending our time working to mitigate climate change and helping build societal resilience instead of working on meaningless careers....
Canβt do that without money

"Kid, don't you want to work hard and be able to retire in a nice beach house like mine?"
"But your house is isn't on a beach..."
"By the time you retire, it will be. And it'll be worth so much then."
I actually think about this. All those houses that are streets away from the beach are going to make so much more in the future because the beach will move.
Sounds like the people who bought those houses are streets ahead.
I paid for the click clack, I'll use the whole click clack
Jokes on you, I'm doing this in my 30's
