Can we talk about why people in an ostensibly high income country (World Bank definition, not mine) were still burning coal to stay warm?
Can we talk about why people in an ostensibly high income country (World Bank definition, not mine) have screen doors on their submarines?
Yeah there's no way there are still enough standing forests for this.
To have the wood ready for winter you'd have to have already started cutting and drying the wood by at least 3-4 months ago minimum and that's assuming it's already fairly dry wood. Dead trees, depending how dead and dry they are, could probably do but that's a tiny section of the total forests of course. I live on a 48 acre property and the amount of trees that die naturally each year is about enough to heat the house about 70-80% of the time in the winter with oil filling in the gaps. So that's like 0.2 square kilometres per household or a density of 5 houses per square kilometre, which ain't good.
I was playing cyberpunk earlier. There’s a line in a loading screen news segment that contains the phrase “Amazonian plains”. Even polish capitalists are like “yeah, Brazil is going to kill us all and turn the world lung into a new Great Plains”. Real doomer moment. Guess Poland is joining them.
In Hardspace: Shipbreaker, the view of the Earth shows flooded coasts and only the poles having greenery
Oof, and here I thought the bluegrass space man wasn’t entirely sad.
Be like me, respond by correcting them: “Russia’s war in THE ukraine”. Tilts them like nothing else while also being historically correct.
Looks like we're about to have some extremely time dialated weeks coming up soon.
I know a polish a weeb. I sent him this with the caption: “oh no, how are you going to protect your waifu now”.
He responded by saying that there are worse fates than reliving the trauma of Gilles de rais. Surprised at the low key diss at Joan tbh.
Gilles de rais
what a lovely fellow, all royals are bastards.
oh and massive content warnings for SA and pedophilia if you want to look him up :stalin-gun-1::stalin-gun-2:
You do realize those accusations were fabricated by rivals and the inquisition…right?
Insane playwright who wasted his inheritance? Yeah. General who won the war. Also yeah. Victim of the bias against the mentally and falsely accused by zealots. Beyond doubt.
i will not take back my disgust for royals, but if you have a source for the rest i'd love to learn

Disgust for royals is basedbut let’s not allow a good thing to stray us from the (likely) truth

I welcome the open minded discussion this place has, but I’m 8 loko deep (4 x 2 = thank you god for autocorrect)

I’m leaving the notifications active so I’ll see this in like 15 hours when I’m not drunk/hungover.

This is not a source, just fun music somewhat related. Cradle of filth has a concept album that is based upon him falling to satanism after witnessing her burning on the stake. 13th Caesar and death of love are bangers if you like black metal/extreme metal
That’s honestly really sweet, I’m about to pass out hugging my dog. I hope the time cycle has been kind to you as well.

i was told by a redditor that it actually has nothing to do with the war but the pandemic calming down and demand skyrocketing
:cope:
Genuinely wonder what this will do to domestic politics. Poland is already pretty fucked by fascists. Where do they even go from here?
Yeah didn't you know you need to heat your home more when you're able to leave it more often?
I and many people I know will not have heating this winter, and living in the city we'll have to rely on hot water bottles and blankets. This is in Ireland, one of the "richest" countries in the world
Every parenti image is so powerful. He looks like a wizard casting a spell to wake us up in that one. :parenti: looking like he's glancing back at us having seen the truth he knows so well. :party-parenti: just looks like a fun guy
So that's why they want to invoke article 5 so bad, to get some of that atomic heat.
