Honestly that’s way better than getting off the couch and using my feet.

In just 2 years a river an ecologist once called “the cleanest river he’d ever seen” turned off the charts toxic. It’s wild to me that they keep talking about the year 2100. Or even 2050 at this point.

The military even does this while training. Soldiers, like children, will often ignore signs of heat exhaustion or dehydration. So they keep a stringent eye on wet bulb temps, and procedures. At heat cat 5 I think it was 15 minutes of work, and 45 rest of I remember right. He’ll in basic they made us drink a full cantine before lunch, and again before bed at the bare minimum.

Oh shit, that’s way worse! I thought they were using recycled saw dust! WTF?!? How could anyone think that’s a good idea?!?

I mean… It makes sense to use saw dust somehow. It’s there as a byproduct, and it makes sense to use byproducts as much as possible. But I feel like there’s ways we could use saw dust better than burning it. Technically you could call it carbon neutral to burn it thanks to iffy definitions. But you could make it a carbon sink, somehow. It’s way past my bedtime atm, so excuse me if alternatives might sound stupid but here we go.
in compost/soil mixture. It holds water better than a lot of materials, as a mix, you might even be able to grow something in soil that would normally be considered too sandy/dry.
a mixture in plastics, so as not to use as much plastic, and although I’m sure there would be side effects, but it could be perfect for a few specific uses.
swamp/mangrove protection. Ok by now I’m pulling this out of my ass. Like I said, it’s far past my bedtime. But with loose soil, I feel like mixing in some saw dust would act as a binder, and slow erosion.
So I’m not a scientist or anything, but there has to be a better use of saw dust than fucking binding it and burning it. On one level, at least they’re using it… I guess? But even being landfill, at least it would be a carbon sink, even if just a minor one.


People against rooftop are the craziest to me. Not only does it give you essentially free energy, it also shades the roof, cooling the building just by existing. Every factory on earth should cover their roofs with solar panels. It just makes too much sense not to. Even from a capitalist perspective, it’s stupid not to. And lost hours due to heat stress are common in manufacturing, throw up some solar panels and lower your indoor temps while shoving money in your pockets from energy savings. Heat stress injuries go down, OSHA rating goes up, insurance goes down. It just doesn’t make sense to fight solar.


Those things are going to get scrapped so fast when America falls. Ya know how eventually locals used the stones from the pyramids, the lighthouse of Alexandria, and the Roman colosseum? Well, that but scrapping chips and copper from abandoned data centers.

“may” stop using soft language!

Right? Who’s going to pay money for this “service”? How would you even monetize it? What country would pay money for it? Most countries wouldn’t pay a dime unless everyone paid the same. The problem is that even if this was a positive thing, if you’re Belgium, and france and Germany pay into it, you’ll get the effects without paying. Unless you can make it specifically act for the “subscribers” nobody will buy. And even then, the gaps would make it so others who don’t do it, will minimize the effect of those that do.
Logically it doesn’t make sense. Let alone the scientific side, which we simply don’t know. At best it delays the problem. At worst? Who knows.
My kids struggling to read so I turned on captions to help him out. And for whatever reason, it won’t turn them off when it’s just me. And it drives me fucking insane. It’s like “I recognize your wishes and disrespectfully decline.”
You guys can lay unconscious?


Yeah at work I’m always bobbing my head to music. But I don’t know how to play any instrument.


I’m that way with most tool albums.


They’ll kill the planet before they let this bubble burst. What are the polymarket odds on what takes us out first? AI or climate change?

And then you heard about AI learning to develop self prevalence.
Edit: self preservation.

I can’t believe kurt cobain died 4 years ago!
Bwahahaha! You failed to see my trap! For I am crrrrrAAAYYYYZY! While you were confused, I stole all of your kohlrabi!
