Only up to a point, fossil fuels getting cheaper will reach a point where it wont be worth extraction outside of for niche customers.

If renewables become plentiful and cheap enough globally fossil fuels will more or less die off in use, even if right now they’re going upward in use its temporary. The problem is we’re stuck with severe consequences even if they do eventually largely stop. We’re stuck with severe consequences if they stop this very instant in fact.

What we really want is renewable energy to become so cheap and plentiful that not only do fossil fuels stop being used but carbon capture technology’s high energy cost becomes null and it just becomes a net good. ATM the technology is useless because the high energy cost ends up just putting more co2 into the air anyway than is removed.

Both seem ripe to be someone’s fursona.

That’s victorian era morals super charged by protestant evangelical puritanism. Kids are perfect innocent angels that become hyper corrupted by the sin of nakedness and the flesh.

The USA never seems to get past this in particular.

I would be way too curious to do that. How does someone that stupid even function? Lets find out.

I just can’t even stand the personality of someone who’s first fucking instinct when they see violent or sexual media is “If I don’t like it no one should be allowed to see it.” Fuck off.

I closed the community center I work at alone yesterday. Had a homeless guy come by after closing wanting me to bag some pantry food for them and I told them I was wrapping up for the day and they’d have to come tomorrow. He threw a hissy fit, I shut the door, and 2 minutes later another burly hairy dude in an old SUV came by with a nasty grumpy look on his face parked directly in front of our front door. They waited outside the door for me to leave.

Suffice to say I wasn’t interested in getting jumped/stabbed over whatever they were thinking and I exited out the back and snuck the rest of the way to my car. What a fucking memorable Monday.
