Damn it, I’ll take the corpse

Imagine they accept the refugees, then a rug pull happens and aid stops anyway

I used to think fireworks were fun, but after getting a dog that is terrified of them, you start noticing all the little things.

People shoot then off randomly throughout the year. They leave behind garbage waste. Animals and even some humans seem to get PTSD from them.

I’m in favor of very limited fireworks in specific areas.

You’re 100% right. There is no way this action doesn’t cause harm.

That said, what should they do?

We don’t grow our crops in a desert. They grow in very specific regions of the world, often in areas that are suitable due to natural formations and easily obtainable water. Most of Canada is forested land that is uninhabited with no infrastructure such as roads, running water, or electricity - not to mention there has never been a large agricultural presence in those areas, so it would have to be started from scratch, if it is possible at all.

When you say we’ll huddle around the proverbial fires, it might be a very small human population. Our civilization (likely including both of us) probably won’t be around at that point.

Plants don’t grow without light. Plants can’t survive extreme heat and drought.

Once it gets too hot or too dry to grow crops, it won’t matter anymore. Call me a doomer, but we aren’t doing enough to stop that future from happening.

Last I checked in there some of the posters had a hard right slant. It’s not all of them, but enough to leave a bad taste in your mouth.

As much as I hate linking to it, you could probably find out by asking in the defcon warning system forums.

Surprise, surprise. Bank who wants infinite growth of stock prices tells companies to lower costs to be more competitive. Guess where that will come from?

Either quality or labor costs. It isn’t coming from the CEO’s pockets.

Hooray doom news!

You can spread propaganda about Israel but we draw the line with George Clooney
