It’s 90 degrees Farenheit (32°C) in the Arctic right now | The Arctic is heating faster than the rest of the planet. New data illustrate how dire that is

I sweat with minimal exertion - combination of a sedentary lifestyle plus SSRIs fucking with body temp regulation. Always thought I might be comfy in the arctic circle. So much for that, I guess.

We did it ! We Terraformed a planet ! Earth, a planet that was exactly as perfect as it gets for us to live on it, we Terraformed it into a suffocating hell.

We’re fucked. Glad I’m on the older side, don’t have kids, and got to experience this world before we utterly fucked it. It’s true - it was beautiful before The Great Burn.

This summer has been ominous as fuck. Anytime I’ve pointed it out most people don’t realize what I mean… If you’re in tune with the natural system of weather you recognize a shift like this. It’s been getting slowly worse over the last few years… but this year has been really really different. We are so fucked.

I just need to know how bad, how fast. Mostly because I miss cigarettes and if I don’t need to have quit, I would like them back thanks.

The amount of carbon and methane sequestered in the arctic is staggering…and when it heats up, that’s going to start off gassing…

And then Earth ran a fever to try to get rid of the parasites. The parasites will have to adapt to survive, though, some were already changing to a less aggressive bleeding of the earth, in hopes that they will go out saying, “I bit the least!” before starving to death.
