I’m worried for the world. All I’ve been thinking about is WW3 and this shit makes me want to vomit. I can’t even smoke weed anymore without having a near panic attack. I feel unmotivated. I wake up and immediately just want to go back to bed. I’m not trying to spread fear but the Doomsday clock is 90 seconds till midnight, during the Cuban missile crisis, it was 7 minutes before midnight. Can we just have one day of fucking peace? Can everyone just stop for one day and enjoy one day of peace?

    Well weed can give you panic attacks so maybe it’s time for a break on that in the first place, but a straight answer to your question is yes, we’re fucked.

    With this winter that has just passed, we are into Original Prediction territory - the original Shell (i think they worked for Shell?) engineers who discovered that CO2 was a greenhouse gas and did the math to predict the effects - this winter puts us back in line with that work. Every single prediction that has been made since has been watered down, dumbed down and spaced out. The original catastrophe predicted by those engineers is coming true right now.

    Don’t listen to these hippies saying erry li’l ting gon be awright, they simply haven’t been paying attention and are a big part of the reason why nothing has been done about it in the first place, and there’s nothing left to do but point fingers anyway. Barbarism and fire are coming; their heads are too far up their asses to see the shit that’s about to mess up their diligently coifed hair.
