happypanda1990.bsky.social @happypanda1990.bsky.social · 06/11/2024And I hate that I have to "like" this post. Was going to be very messy in any way especially in poorer regions and to the great many species we share this ancient planet with, but just on a much worse trajectory now. 070 0
Ellin Stein @ellinst.bsky.social · 06/11/2024I decided to leave my home country after Reagan was re-elected (anyone can make a mistake once, but to repeat it...) on the grounds that so many deluded voters would ultimately lead to disaster. That and the "U-S-A" bellows at the '84 Olympics (as heard on Jan. 6.) Straight from a Nuremberg rally. 030 0
KH @khvmd.bsky.social · 06/11/2024This was no fluke. He wasn’t hiding anything about his intentions or the people he would work with to achieve them (except for denying project 2025 ties).

Mark Hale just wrote a novel! @ver-bat-man.eurosky.social · 06/11/2024If only there were some governments that weren't as crappy as the US and Russia.

Dr Priest @pennypriest.bsky.social · 06/11/2024I so agree. But now is not the time for hopelessness.

Ray Aune @kerthulhu75.bsky.social · 06/11/2024It does help. If nothing else we can save the energy that was going into 'preventing the fuckery' and use it for 'mitigating the fuckery' or 'surviving the fuckery'.

Open Risk @openrisk.eu · 06/11/2024Humanity was "so fucked" for all its trajectory but nobody cared.
