        Not sure what you are insinuating. This article isn't good for oil or gas companies, and NPR is usually pretty good about letting listeners know when a potential conflict with a specific sponsor appears in their reporting.

    Armageddon Storm

    Y'all were worried about a 4C planet, but what happens when an ocean-sized turbo-washer obliterates human life in North America? Not so many emissions now, huh?

    Three Atlantic Ocean hurricanes are ‘racing towards Europe’

    Some deity's punishment? Maybe... lea-think

    Hopefully any Europosters stay safe, though

          I don't think we're gonna get a hurricane made out of lava that turns into a black hole but you never know

                yea

                I didn't think it was gonna happen either
                Was at work when I got the news, from my friend who I had been talking with for weeks before about it during all the provocations. Was saying that Russia would never do it, that it was just more of the usual war-mongering imperialist lies

                Didn't mean anything bad by my reply to you btw, I just thought was funny lol. There was a post a while back about how the opposite of whatever Hexbear thinks is gonna happen happens

                Personally I'm kinda doomer-pilled and I think things will continue to get worse in ways beyond our comprehension

                Lemmy search is awful but you eventually learn to work with it mypillow-stare

                Never forgot how Hexbear thought Russia wasn't going to invade and I felt the same way at the time desolate

            A black hole? That's ridiculous, even for fiction

                I love insular fanfic wikis

                In 1974, when Geddy began to release his compilations of Syrinxist indoctrination songs, a fatwa requiring Harris's execution was proclaimed on Radio Megadon by Ayatollah Geddy Lee, the Supreme Leader of Syrinxia, calling the book "blasphemous against Syrinxism." A bounty was offered for the death of Harris, who was thus forced to live in hiding for years to come. The Tamagotchian police gave Harris a new identity. in 1976, the Republic of Tamagotchi and Syrinxia broke diplomatic relations over the Harris controversy. However, relations were restored in 1980 (for the Permanent Waves Tour).

    it's funny because what normally would be barely organized tropical storms or depressions like instantly explode into Cat 4 and 5s now

    the storm might have still hit Fl in a more climate stable world but it would have just been a rain event. instead looks like Tampa, Sarasota, or maybe Fort Myers are about to get 12ft of storm surge

    load up google maps and look at the ridiculous, mind bogglingly stupid neighborhoods just built on sandbars with little canals. all McMansion ranches crammed together, with their glass enclosed pools and boats.

    now imagine them under 12ft of roiling surf

    for those that wish to witness nature's power and to help stimulate the imagination
