  • So does a fucking lawn. Actually, imo, lawns are worse. It’s a perfect representation of the toxicity of the “American dream”. It’s an unnatural landscape that’s inhospitable to life, sort of like the concrete, costs resources to maintain, unlike the concrete, but it gets some weird psychological pass because it’s green. It’s shit either way.

    Talking about “he ripped out the rose garden” is just more sensationalism horseshit when the roses are right there, just fuckin dandy. He tore out a lawn that was equally as shit.

    Have you considered that humanity does not actually have enough data to know what is and is not a “safe climate zone”?

    How long, in years, did the climate take to “recover” from siberian traps eruptions? How about the dinosaur killing asteroid/deccan traps episode? What was more damaging to the environment, particulate in the air or the release of volcanic gasses?

    The planet has been through multiple unimaginable apocalypses. It will survive humanity just fine. And if it doesn’t? Im sure something will evolve to take our place. Terraforming is well beyond our means as a species, intentional or not.




  • Had a job interview at their Ames facility back in December. It was an interesting opportunity, and it required a LOT of sacrifices in terms of commute and workload, but I could’ve made it work. Then they tried to pull the “Could we interest you in a contractor position?” switcheroo at the end of the hiring process and I noped the fuck out. The next week, Trump announced he was cutting all contractor jobs and freezing new hires for the agency.

    Lmfaoooo

    Guess the burnout is real. I couldn’t believe how much of a dump the place was honestly. Shit is being held together with duct tape, zip ties, and free veteran labor.
