By far, the most convoluted, bureaucratic, dragging entity I’ve had to deal with, sorting out things after Mim died, has been Broadcast Music Inc. . It’s almost like they want you to give up. Meanwhile, the money sits in their bank.

The only George scene that we ever really needed

It’s fun seeing wealthy conservative chuds try to cosplay as rural and steal “small town” valor as a way to push their vision of “real” America. I grew up in an unincorporated community with no cops in the middle of a nature preserve and ended up as a literal anarchist, try again

where does all this shit physically go when we decide to end living a way of life that’s killing us?

stop laughing im serious!

like when we #undo it all, where would it go?

The whole idea that Jason Aldean is from Macon, a city of 150,000 people, and sings about small town life, is the whole deal with modern country music.

It’s a bunch of city boys cosplaying as red necks and has been for a generation.

“both sides are bad actually” gave a shit-ton of millennials brainworms at a young age and the show doesn’t get enough flack for it

“Humans think they are safely observing from the control room as the climate bomb they have set off on this planet detonates: a story of arrogance, naivety and narcissism repeated over and over throughout our history. This one will be the final bomb” #amwriting #ClimateCrisis

“The only thing palpably real anymore is this collapsing planet - everything else is fake. Truth is synthetic. Happiness is manufactured. Work is mostly bullshit jobs. And even meaningful meaning is a commodity, bought and sold by the most absurd concept: money” #amwriting

The priority is to prepare for the asteroid. Nothing else matters now. It's coming. Nothing can stop it. Emissions cuts are a sick joke. If they ever happened, which they can't, warming would *accelerate* due to reduced aerosols. It's all a sick joke.

Not really sure what happens when the oceans start boiling and our politicians are like “I hate tree huggerss!!” and the biggest thing in the average person’s mind are movies about toys, lol if this is the end, it’s so much stupider than anyone imagined

I don’t know when the average person is gonna figure out the reason the planet’s boiling is that we’ve done literally nothing at a serious level economically judicially politically to stop emissions, which is ludicrous and horrifying with you think about it

Bro-I had no idea Dr Johnny Fever had a run in the NFL

If Americans found out
They could cure climate change
By always parking 100 feet farther from
The door
They wouldn't.
No sacrifice small enough.

The basis of ecomodernism is to exploit/destroy biodiversity to achieve carbon neutrality and economic growth…..the premise being technology is a suitable replacement for nature.

The denial of the ecological and climate crisis is very strange and weird.

Once you see it, you can't unsee it.

Yet paradoxically, it is so easy just to wilfully chose not to see it, and not to think about it all, ever.

The way you know he’s full of shit is that he turns off the comments

Is it young people building the houses, Stan?
Did we give ourselves the participation trophies too?
Are we the ones setting the interest rates?
Are we creating the low paying jobs we’re all trapped in too?

My new favourite climate graphic

From Jane Morton Jane Morton's excellent free booklet 'Don't Mention the Emergency?'

Super dangerous & naive to believe that current scale + further economic/population 'growth',
.. can suddenly become impact free via 'renewables'.

Like it or not #Degrowth * must happen.

*a planned & managed down sizing in the scale of our economy.
