    Well, you know… you can’t attribute any one event with certainty.

    Only 9 of the last 10 apocalypses were caused by global warming, and we can’t really tell you which ones…

      I talked with friends in the midwest after the 3rd consecutive year with worst storms on record. “Yeah okay they’re bad, but there’s not a pattern or anything, it was just a bad storm.” THREE. CONSECUTIVE. YEARS. People for fucks sake maybe, just maybe this stuff is connected?!

            I borrowed my neighbor’s tools today and gave him a bag of weed, we ended up talking. You see I broke my snow shovel and push broom in the snow and ice storm earlier this week, so I had to borrow his, again.

            I said man who can deny climate change at this point. Who can deny that we only learned what a polar vortex was less than ten years ago? Who can deny that the climate is so much different from when we were kids?

            He agreed, and started talking about weather machines.

            I’m sure he doesn’t vote, but damn. We really like each other. We help each other out. We would defend our homes together with firearms if it came to it. But when it comes to climate change it’s just some hoax. He said similar shit during covid.
