Chronicles of Collapse

Trump State Department official has called for mass sterilization of ‘low-IQ trash’ Darren Beattie previously served as a speechwriter for Trump, but he was fired in 2018 after he spoke at a conference attended by white nationalists

Also, I'm sick of the gaslighting (pun intended) that companies like Woodside engage in to deflect attention to where it belongs: them.

Woodside boss says young people ‘ideological’ on fossil fuels while ‘happily ordering from Temu’ Meg O’Neill tells energy industry conference that individual consumers’ role in driving emissions is ‘missing’ in conversations about fossil fuels

Thanks Meg. Individuals can make some meaningful changes, but they're a tiny blip on the map compared to what major industries like hers need to do to reduce GHG emissions. #collapse

Earth is heading for 2.7°C warming this century. We may avoid the worst climate scenarios – but the outlook is still dire The world seems to have avoided truly catastrophic climate scenarios, and global emissions may be about to peak. But we’re by no means out of danger

China is cutting its emissions, but not India - and of course the United States is back to worshiping coal and methane gas. We will reach the 2.7 C mark much faster than 2100. #collapse

Why would any sane person voluntarily live in Missouri? The state is hopeless. The majority of its people want to live in a self-inflicted hell. Let them. Get out.

It's shining proof that before taking office, Trump never had even a fraction of the wealth he claimed to have.

Another wretched thing to point out here - and why I refer to the GOP under Trump as a cult - is that Republican legislators who voted for it now back its repeal, even though the IRA has created thousands of jobs in red states.

The more this kind of thing spreads, the more vets and animal hospitals can charge; the more of a division is created between those who can care for sick animals because they have the money/insurance and those who can't.

This is the kind of sickness you find only in America. It's not enough to destroy millions of lives through our "healthcare" system. No, we need to extend that abomination to our pets so that they're "protected."

I'm curious when we'll hit a point where actual first-world countries begin to refuse American refugees.

When are they not? White men have always been one of the most malleable tools to use to incite violence. They're like dogs; they will do what their master commands, as long as they're fed, stroked and called a good boy.

I'm white btw.

They are getting away with it. More than that, they're not going to be stopped this time by Democrats coming to power; this is a fascist regime now. They won't let themselves be elected out of power. I know you know this.

A "new level of alarm" and the same static level of inaction from your typical lemming-brained American.

A small Montana town grapples with the fallouts from federal worker cuts Science is an economic driver in Hamilton, Mont., thanks to Rocky Mountain Laboratories, a federal research lab. Now, layoffs and funding cuts are having an impact in this town far from Washington.

We actually live in the 15th century.

But a few locals resent what they consider the elitist scientists at the facility, which has employed about 500 people in recent years. Or they fear the contagious pathogens studied there could escape the labs' well-protected walls.

I always want the NYT to revisit these articles to see the fate of the couple, as roughly one in three will end up divorced.
