Better for yourself, worse for the environment.

Which is more important, yourself or the environment?

Workers of the world, unite!

Even better: why don’t we do everything we can to prevent Florida from sinking in the first place?

Defeatism will get us nowhere. We need to act, and we need to act now!

The color red has symbolic significance of good fortune in China. Incidentally, it is also a symbol of communism.

But have you ever heard the term “red scare”? Many people from the US almost seem like bulls with the way they freak out at anything remotely resembling communism (read: any progressive policies in general), like UBI, raising the minimum wage, improving the healthcare system, especially anti-hate speech regulations (I wonder why!), high-speed rail, protection against infectious diseases, and so on.

Red is one of my favorite colors too! And it’s very harrowing to observe how the conservative racists in the US have appropriated and completely shitted on it.

Well, they better start prepping for the climate crisis now, cause this new normal ain’t no joke. You’re literally melting in your ignorant echo chambers, yet you deny the sobering reality in front of all your faces. In between retweeting Fox News lies and drooling over Trump photos, do try to notice how the A/C can’t keep up anymore, crops are failing, and local stores are running out of bottled water. Climate migrants will soon be knocking on the door of your car-dependent cookie-cutter suburban single family (read: nuclear family model-reinforcing) house, but no worries, I’m sure y’all still got plenty of racism, saturated fat, and Confederate flags left to make them “feel at home.”

As we face this new normal of record temperatures, megadroughts, devastating storms and wildfires, “thoughts and prayers” won’t cut it anymore. Those lobbing snowballs on the Senate floor are slipping into full-blown climate denial, sticking their heads in the sand as Florida and Louisiana face ever worsening hurricanes and sea level rise.

And sadly, it’s not just the South. It’s the whole damn country. Remember the Northeast wildfire smoke? This is every summer from now on.

We simply cannot afford four more years of climate criminal Trumpism. Our generations have inherited this mess left by fossil-fueled capitalism and inaction. If capitalism runs its course according to current models and projections, there will be no more country for us.

Only if we fix the servers and reduce the bugs.

Didn’t one of the larger gif sites announce their discontinuation?

As long as we don’t allow capitalist corporate greed to ruin the Fediverse like it has ruined (and will continue to ruin) practically everything.

And it infuriates me how war - people getting killed and cultural heritage being destroyed - is so capitalized like that.

Pretty sure it was the same deal with Vietnam back in the day, actually.

There’s a remarkable level of racism in the level of concern for Ukraine vs. somewhere with less white and European people like Yemen.

Not just fewer kids. But fewer conservatives too.

Gosh, I love it here.
