Kicking the can down the road and off a cliff.
In this episode, you’ll be playing the can.
Obligatory
Poor Kif.“It’s a catastrophe, sir.”
“Come back when it’s a disaster!”
They gather to mee via private jets
Oh no no no. They’re not agreeing to meet in 10 years, they’re agreeing someone else will in 10 years…
…and it’s a paid holiday anyways. They all take jets to these meetings.
The food they get there costs more than everything you eat in 5 years combined.
Can’t discuss the future of the younger generations on an empty, dopamine-free stomach, now can we?
Even the science tits?
I am grateful I even have a planet to live on.
Thanks mum.
I’m not being sarcastic, I’m being serious.
I choose to think about positive things.
I just bought an extra air conditioner.
But I’m a evil fascist capitalist like that I guess? if I was a good socialist I’d just sit around and be sweaty at home instead?
Nice looking straw man you’ve built.
There’s two sides to that that Lemmy won’t ever get.
There’s the equality side of me who says everyone should live on a planet that isn’t warming and we should do everything we can to stop it, which is why I’ve removed all but one fossil fuel use from my life.
The other side has a family I need to keep safe, which is why I overhauled our HVAC system to handle the higher temps.
this place is full of people full of misguided and self-defeating idealism.
who are totally allergic to the notion that reality is limited and people are finite. because everything is perfect and infinite in our heads.
The majority of lemmy seems to genuinely believe the cow is a perfect sphere.
the cow is a perfect sphere.
first time I have heard this. wonderful phrase. i miss math class. mathematics keeps you honest and humble, probably why people are so pathologically avoidant of it.
It felt appropriate, seeing how so much discourse here is more or less exclusively classroom theory discussion that almost totally ignores the actual reality.
it is nice to think that way, and I do vote that way and try to be the best human I can. However I think you’re right, it’s idealism vs realism.
That’s me buying and upgrading our cooling HVAC to prep for hotter summers, but also making it a heat pump so I don’t need to burn gas anymore. It’s also my recycling and reducing consumption even though I know I’m one person in a vast sea. I try to follow Nemik’s words from Andor: “Try”. What most people refuse to do at all is to try to improve our world, as long as you’re trying, you’re doing more than the vast majority.
the problem is people use their idealism to justify violence and hatred against others. especially on lemmy.
When the yogurt took over.
Is that Rick and Morty or Futurama?
Great show.
I knew I recognized that plot from somewhere 😆
Awesome show.
Hearts and prayers to the future children
and you’re making cynical memes about it.
