As long as most / a non trivial amount of elites can not only weather but thrive through things like the recession, real estate crash, pandemic, etc., why would they be motivated to change anything? They just get to buy things on sale. 
 

I assume they either don’t believe climate change is going to be as bad as people anticipate and / or believe it will present opportunities. 

We've been witness to so much already. This situation is spiraling faster and faster. I don't expect much word about Africa, South Asia, or Southeast Asia and the Pacific on the grapevine. Our nutrition depends on our labour. I cannot imagine this much of a miscalculation.

WAS high. On review my original post is pretty selfish.

Is this double rainbow Econ? 

Not following with the econ angle. As a foodservice worker in year three of covid I've seen the entire model come undone in a way I didn't think was possible in such short time. From supply chains to labour issues, it's a problem that people don't seem to apply enough nuance to. It's not about being without candy bars, but the top to bottom industrialized model isn't a matter of isolated islands. The only thing I see following all these changes is a global shitstorm that no one seems to be vocal enough about. Much like the covid contrarians are expecting some thanos snap event, there's an expectation of a 'revelation' but we're already in the climate change phase. And I'm increasingly baffled by the lack of urgency among the greater political spectrum.

If an extinction event isn't enough to thwart doubters, how about the fact of 'borrowed' labour. Some seem to prescribe capitalism as an analogue to the competitive spirit, but it's too facile facing reality. The global south is an assembly line for the western middle class dream. It hasn't been interrupted for as long as it started.

The labour that makes the candy bar machine exists is an existential dread across many in the world. But this isn't enough to sway some minds.

The upcoming ecological turning point will paint many to death. And as careless it may be, the pennies of labour that the expendable bodies harboured disappears as well.

'What can I get for 73 bucks?'

Sounds about like two burrito combos from a rideshare app.

1. Go to party.

2. Exchange furtive glances with cutie.

3. Oh god they're approaching, RUN!

4. Go home and cry.

Lips.

Distract their elders with drone bingo while flooding meth into the streets. They know what to do.

Time to sever florida. The Ocean can claim her.

Religion could be a thing if it each were a discipline in liberal arts, like break the wall around spirituality and seek the components. We're talking about millenniums worth of haul with due diligence. Arts, crafts, sciences, dictums, the whole shebang. Best part is that unlike a lot of 'holistic' sciences there's no conclusion to speak of.

Looks like the wayward spirit is fine with physical contact. Just lie back and *ghost bowjob*

We fucked nature for so long it's finding solutions for us.

In other news bugs to come out as big winners of the climate emergency.

Smartest pop all year. Aesop's Fables to crack beats.

These cyborgs won't be (will be?)shit when they grey goo claims us all.

Please keep the ballistic modeling. Need some more of that.

"Western" culture isn't the neutral stance it purport to be. Imagine finding out you fart.

I was making a joke about white guys celebrating that just this once, it's not a white dude despite all signs pointing that way. It was a Shyamalan plot twist for me that it wasn't some white dude from Saskatchewan.

I didn't/don't really see it that way. In the first introduction to "Jinx" we see that she's clearly conflicted after killing the pink-haired woman. Throughout the rest of the show she continues to have small redeemable moments frequently enough that I don't think it's unreasonable to call the battle between Silco and Vi for Jinx's soul the primary thematic conflict in the show. Through that lens, I just found the finale so unsatisfying. It isn't that they went for a "nobody wins" finale, because those can be executed very well. It's that the specific way they did it doesn't make sense to me. Jinx is motivated primarily by a desire for belonging and the belief that the only way she will be accepted is to be useful. At no point does she seem interested in Silco's ideology or the nation of Zorn(?). She is loyal to him and acts in his interests because he has become a father to her. So after she kills Silco it just doesn't make sense that she would be interested in escalating his conflict.

 

We need voters who have the piss and vinegar of the infirm denied but with the unrepresented energy of loan age college students. It's clear the old guard and social structure do too much to repress an honest hope for change. Let the kids fuck up the world for once.
