There’s already floods, heatwaves and tornadoes. Sure there’s much less death and destruction on a bigger scale, but their immediate surroundings won’t stay constantly enjoyable much longer. I happen to live in a place that’s too cold to comfortably enjoy the outdoors for most of the year - and full of mosquitoes for the remainder. Trust me, it takes a toll on your mental health really fast. I don’t think they realise that.

The French royals didn’t have mechadogs to protect them, or social media to distract their subjects. I think they believe themselves safe this time (but I hope they’re wrong)

Can they, though? I really cannot understand the appeal of spending one’s old age in a bunker. Not to mention knowing that your grandkids (most of them have multiple kids and seem to disproportionately care about “legacy”) will inherit an uninhabitable planet. You can survive in a bunker, but you cannot, for example, grow all kinds of exotic fruit in a bunker. You cannot take long walks in a bunker (I know they’re building huge bunkers but even that will get old after a couple years). Ultimately, they’re building life term prisons for themselves and their families, which is somehow fitting even if little consolation.

As usual, the grifter sells things he never owned.

Turns out I was wrong and you were right, it really did end trumps plans! 🎉

That’s a misunderstanding. Rape can be about many things: power, hatred, transgression. Physical attraction often doesn’t matter at all.

Do you think older women don’t get raped? Also, condoms exist.

If we all suffer, it’s bad. Even if you want the US to suffer, which is understandable, it’s still bad if the rest of the world suffers too.
