The later we get on with transition, the worse it's going to be, for sure. However, I can say for myself that I live pretty comfortably in a well-insulated, AC-less apartment and it gets to 40°C here and over in summer. That's 104°F
Oh yeah I mean, I'm not doubting that properly insulated houses work just fine, it's just that the whole topic kinda got me thinkin about that shit. Just generally feels like humanity fuckin bonked it's head on the great filter pretty bad. And we don't even get a cool apocalypse like nuclear war or something, just very slow planet getting increasingly fucked.
I mean... If it is any consolation, I believe all-out war for resources is a likely outcome of global consciousness reaching any kind of "this habitat is fucked for real, we need to scramble to survive"-kinda stage.
Lmao yeah that's fair. Would be more interesting, at least. Either way, I'll continue to hope for a stupid pseudoposadist alien ex machina to keep myself sane until the hammer drops.
Entirely valid hope! I mostly lean into alien shit for coping just because I legitimately do think that there's something to UFO reports, and IMO the ET hypothesis is probably the most likely one given the current publicly available evidence, which, granted, doesn't prove much more than that UFOs are (probably) real, physical objects.
Oh yeah, absolutely. That's probably not in the cards, but it's possible that within the next year or so we'll actually get a public report from the US gov irt the DoD's Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force. There's been some congressional pressure regarding it because Marco Rubio of all people is concerned about what the UFOs the Navy are seeing might be.
True, I keep hearing about new footage. Combined with Space Force this all seems borderline budget sci-fi flick with the exception that it's kinda really real. I wonder how unredacted any kind of large-scale declassification might realistically turn out to be, but I guess we'll have to wait to find out.

I guess we all cope in different ways. Still hope the dolphins just start wrecking shit tbh ;(

First Contact would probably salvage this year for me, even if it's hostile lol
