    Believe, I know. Words like "famine" and "wetbulb temperature" gonna be real fucking common soon.

    I'm just hoping it all crashes sooner rather than later so that maybe, maybe a small group of humans and other mammals on earth will survive.

      man, even in like the worst case scenario of cascading soil erosion, ocean acidification, run away greenhouse permafrost, breakdown of agriculture is really not gonna kill everybody and everything. like, it'll be pretty fuckin bad I'm not gonna sugar coat it, billions die and so on, but there will be people and life left after. if the late cretaceous mass extinction still had life bounce back, or fuck the thing we literally call 'the great dying' had survivors, I think life on earth is good

        Yeah, probably. Certainly extremophiles will continue to do their thing. But there are limits. Not a lot of life on Venus these days

          I think you are very much over reacting. and yes, I've read all the collapse stuff and agree with most of it, very very few credible sources think life will end or even mammalian life. humans are not more powerful than a meteor that blew the fuck out of a chunk of earth
