Our beautiful world is being rapidly destroyed for profit. Climate change is gonna kill us all but at least the billionnaires will be even richerβ οΈ
@afneil There's been a dearth of good news lately so thank you for this. Good riddance to that pregnant girlfriend-assaulting, sexually-attracted-to-schoolchildren POS.
@DarkDementus Dunno why your post has shown up on my timeline but UK winters did not used to be this dreary. Yeah, there was rain but there was also frost and snow, which brightened everything up.
Rarely get frost anymore, let alone snow.
I hate the endless cold damp and grey skies too.
@bankertobuilder@gietzschean Ack apparently you're a parody account.
I'm still gonna leave my post up anyway, 'cos I still can't get over how ugly some of these new builds are.
@bankertobuilder@gietzschean You're getting mine anyway.
It's ugly and bare, and if it were a human it would be dead inside, it's so lifeless.
Absolutely not a scrap of anything warm, homely or living is left. I'm sure the owner would cut down the trees in the background if they could.
@PaulSchleifer Even in the UK, the heat is starting to be more of a danger than the cold.
That's quite the feat, given how cold as a country we've been historically.
@MrMatthewTodd@LBC@NickFerrariLBC Delinquents with lighters have been around a long time. If anything, there were probably more of them in the past since far more young people smoked.
And yet in the 1980s, I don't remember ever hearing about wildfires. Clearly our young arsonists were not up to scratch.
@ZoeWalkerz@PolitlcsUK Then they're surprised when record numbers of 18-25 year olds are NEETs.
I'm not sure what else to say. They have endless money for helping America and Israel to wage war (AKA the defense budget), but no money for psychiatrists, psychologists, support workers, etc.
@RebelGrizzAli@BillWiIdin It probably wouldn't have made any difference. I needed glasses from about 8 or 9, but due to stubbornness didn't get my first pair until I started secondary school at 12. My vision had only got worse during that time (hence finally *having* to get glasses).
@timothy_stanley There's currently 6433 comments underneath the Telegraph article and I'm sure every single one is from a batshit climate change denier, given the newspaper.
@thecitygrump Why would it be a conundrum? Pollution masking global warming is something I've known about for quite a while.
However, the cooling effects of pollution are no longer enough to offset an increasingly warming world.
@A1an_M@andyburnham Miserable boomers who loathe the idea of anyone, anywhere, having a good time are predictably foaming at the mouth at this. God forbid beleaguered venues should be given a small break. No, they should carry on closing down in droves and younger people should just stay at home.
