I will wait for humans to decide to feed hungry children.

Hatred and entitlement aren't logical.

Biden steps down, Kamala energises the campaign.

Trump: step down for Vance. He's so popular!

Yes. Failing the populace is not a side-effect, it's the point.

Agreed. If you have a human, don't let them build suburbs unless you hate ecosystems.

However, humans do observably seem to hate (or at least thoroughly ignore the needs of )ecosystems enough to ruin them, so I'm not sure enough people will listen.

I have pointy teeth and slicey teeth specifically meant for eating meat.

Your asshole leads to your digestive system, also, so I guess we could argue you're meant to eat broomhandles by jumping onto them while someone else holds them vertically.

"you're going to die anyway, why fight it?" --you, probably

Is this generative AI?

I've only watched about 15 mins of their content, and they came across to me as alt-right. Do you not want to mention the name because of that? I'm just wondering if my intuition was correct. Something, when watching videos and reading comments, triggered my nope response.

The gradual loss of the childful optimism and joy.

When I was a (hungry and impoverished) child, I was optimistic that hunger and poverty could be solved.

As an adult who teaches the study of humans, it is quite clear that the solutions are convenient enough, so will not be attempted.

Hungry children it is.

There is no careful use of language that can stop people from preferring hatred. Humans are machines for making the world worse, and they will continue to do so, and while they do it they will rationalise doing it, and while people get hurt (including themselves) they will blame the victims.

"It's not fascism!" they complain as minorities are scapegoated and children die. Just get used to the fact that anything that is pointed entirely towards harming people for fun and profit is going to attract a range of derogatory words, and maybe think about how to stop humans from hurting humans instead.

Most people want social media to read and talk about the mundane things that are interesting to them (like sports, or their hobbies, or some new cool bar they want to go on, or some interesting places to travel)...

Hey, more evidence that most people aren't worth talking to, nice.

I love paying a faceless corporation that hates humans to remind me everyday that capitalism is killing me!

 

Carol Higgins was 15 when she first reported her father’s abuse to the police. They told her he wouldn’t be charged. But she refused to let it rest until he finally stood trial

Higgins gave a 17-page statement, signed it and was given a painful internal examination. At the end of it, she was informed that Appleyard would not be charged. Apparently, the case wasn’t strong enough. There was no forensic evidence. The police told her that because her brother, who was 14, was a minor, his account was inadmissible. They said that, should the case reach court, her name and sexual history would be dragged through the mud. Could she handle it? Higgins said she couldn’t.

[...]

In January 2019, after more pushing by Higgins, who refused to let it rest, Appleyard finally stood trial. It took the jury less than two hours of deliberation to find him guilty of 15 sexual offences against her, including rape and sexual assault. He was sentenced to 20 years. Earlier this year, Higgins also received £15,000 compensation and a public apology from West Yorkshire police, acknowledging that her “extremely serious and truthful allegations took too long to come to justice”.

 

Temperatures above 50C used to be a rarity confined to two or three global hotspots, but the World Meteorological Organization noted that at least 10 countries have reported this level of searing heat in the past year: the US, Mexico, Morocco, Algeria, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Iran, Pakistan, India and China.

In Iran, the heat index – a measure that also includes humidity – has come perilously close to 60C, far above the level considered safe for humans.

Heatwaves are now commonplace elsewhere, killing the most vulnerable, worsening inequality and threatening the wellbeing of future generations. Unicef calculates a quarter of the world’s children are already exposed to frequent heatwaves, and this will rise to almost 100% by mid-century.
