I hear your concerns, man. But a cursory look at the current science behind how we describe things like BOE and Clathrate Gun don’t leave us with mere years between now and instant hotpot catastrophe.

I don’t think it’s useful (if your goal is to promote the mitigation of these events and a livable world for future generations) to catastrophise at that pitch and make it sound like we’re fucked.

We’re not fucked. Things are going to get a lot harder. A lot harder. Much badness. But we’re not fucked. There’s room to work here. And we need to start doing a LOT of work without making it sound like starting wouldn’t do us any good.

He can have Kimmel. John Oliver needs around the clock security.

Big polluters know their resources are finite. They’re deliberately cooking the planet because after some threshold has been reached, they’re going to pivot their enormous infrastructural and industrial capacities into geoengineering.

We’ll be paying BP and Shell to keep the planet cool eventually.

That’s not what he meant by “guess”, so I’m guessing English isn’t your L1. That’s fine. The thing I am gonna give you stick for is getting so riled up by a comic strip you didn’t get that you’re grumping at strangers about it 🤣👉🏼

Interesting. An AI-generated cartoon that someone’s slapped a caption onto.

That’s new.

I knew someone would think about commenting this. Glad to see someone actually did 🤣

This is an excellent point. I’ll chime in here and say I’d never consider using one of these without a proper cover. I got the official sleep cover with the little fold in it for making it a stand and it does the job perfectly.

It’s always so funny to me that the amount of saturation in these images is directly proportional to how long they’ve been doing the rounds on social media.

Durable is an understatement, to be honest. I have the a Kobo Clara BW and it’s fully waterproof. As in, “shit, I dropped it in the ocean lemme run it under this tap to clean it” waterproof.

I’ve dropped it a good many times as well.

The Kobo Clara BW is hands down the best ebook reader I’ve owned, and definitely better than the ones I’ve encountered in the wild with my mates

Who can build a nuclear weapon in two weeks? I’ve hunted for a source on this and can’t find one. Can you help a guy out?

Welp. That’s good enough for me! I’m coming over! 😉

Everywhere does right now :(

Then why on the fuckin’ green earth would you write the words you did directly under my post?

🙄 You’re not retconning your way out of that, pal. Pot calling the kettle black here.

You fucking knob. You realize people who aren’t American are on here, right?

Grow up.

Right. So it’s about breaking the public school system and ultimately replacing them with private institutions?

Okay. Yeesh.

Yeah, maybe. But the rest of us sure fucking don’t. I feel a bit like a some random American I don’t know or endorse voted for me on a few global issues.

I’m pissed about that, I have to admit.

I’m not sure I understand why they’re getting rid of the department of education? Why not change it? Why get rid of it entirely.

If someone could ELI5 that shit, I’d be grateful.
