Omg I made the mistake of watching further. He says that if Trump wins “the struggle with climate change is over” LIKE KAMALA ISN’T PRO FRACKING AND PRO INFINITE ECONOMIC GROWTH YOU FUCKING HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK

Yeah no this video is ragebait for leftists and a circlejerk for libs. Do not recommend. They’re out of touch if they really thought this would get them new voters.

I had to turn it off at about 1:10, the bot below has a safer link.

He basically says yeah it’s bad, but Trump and friends are worse.

Democrats are getting desperate. Even the most casual DSA leftists have stopped trusting every word out of Bernie’s mouth for at least a year now.

Does he even use the word “genocide”? As soon as he used the worn down harm reduction argument, I tuned out.

Having them all be cats was def the way to go vs the other one they generated.

I’m not sure if the Tampa area is also dealing with this, but over where I live, it’s going to rain for 4 days in a row before the hurricane lands.

While there are free shelters, those tend to fill up pretty quickly. There’s also a guilt associated with calling them for help if you have a secure place to stay, since homeless people and those with vulnerable mobile homes/trailers/RVs are among those that need them the most.

Most people would absolutely need to bust out the credit card and go into debt to evacuate, and go even further into debt if they want a place where their car doesn’t risk getting flooded. While it’s illegal to jack up prices for water and gas during a hurricane, as far as I’ve seen hotels are usually free game, especially as we’re getting closer to the holiday season. If anyone even bothers to report them later, they can just say they were planning on raising prices for Halloween events anyway. Add in the fact that many people don’t get paid time off, so that’s an extra couple of days of lost wages. Yesterday would have been the day to say fuck it and whip out your card, as I imagine today that the cheapest and safest Airbnb/hotels are all booked up. Surely many of them were already half booked with tourists, since many tourism guides say you can avoid hurricanes as long as you visit in the fall. (Hurricane season actually ends Nov 30th, a fact that might become much more relevant in the next few years.) Canceling toll charges is obviously pennies compared to the rest of the cost, anyone that acts like that’s enough is a deeply unserious individual.

The roads will probably be pretty clogged if you travel north today. I do feel a little bad for saying not to travel south yesterday, as some people on here have gone that route. They probably won’t deal with as much traffic as they would have been otherwise. My anxiety insists that you’re cornering yourself traveling south, but honestly as long as you’re mainland and not next door to a swamp, you’re probably safe. Good luck with gas if you’re out on the road today. Being stuck in your car during a hurricane is a nightmare that I hope no one here experiences.

If there’s one silver lining of the storm, it’s that the heat is actually pretty manageable. Heat stroke should be way down compared to a normal Aug/Sept hurricane. It might even cause repairs and the power to come back quicker if workers are just a little less exhausted working 12 hour days outside. Prep extra ice for your fridge and fill your bathtubs with water tomorrow. Good luck out there.

…I’d still rather take my chances in a northern state vs Florida tho.

If I could eat one vegetable for the rest of my life, it would be O N I O N

It’s time to fiber up and fart.

Meanwhile in Orlando, a fucking cat 4 hurricane is passing by tomorrow and the theme parks are shrugging and pretty much only shutting down water parks.

Incredible state in an incredible country.

My mask is nearly sheer at this point and I’ve started wearing more goth clothing to work because fuck it.

Thankfully I’m tight lipped at work and my social media accounts are either private or deserted wastelands. So far everyone is pretending to have a live and let live mentality about their coworkers, but I have a feeling the moment career progression actually looks possible again that people will be snitching left and right.

You sure that’s not a screencap of a turret from the next Portal game?

It’s ok, we all get older and nostalgia pilled.

(Saying that as someone that also loves vapor wave and is probably older than you.)

Actually I remember back when it was trending I used it as a coping method for dealing with retail jobs. I’d watch a lot of vaporwave being played over footage of dead mall tours. Before I became a leftist, vaporwave was my reminder that the consumerism will die eventually.

I mean, ya know…

Dats one reason I guess.

Thanks for cooling things down with that mild take, I’ve been excited about fall coming for weeks now.

Is there a documentary or good video I can watch about this?

When my job had first aid training, I asked a similar question, and they said that as long as we were on company property we had to call 9/11 even if the person begs you not to and even if you’re willing to drive the person to the hospital yourself.

For liability reasons, obviously the company isn’t going to help you pay your medical bills or anything. Best case scenario, your teammates mass spam a donation email and you might get a couple hundred bucks for a several thousand dollar ambulance drive.

Kinda wish someone edited the second creepypasta face to frown.

I haven’t heard of this game, I’ll have to check it out after my Minecraft addiction settles down.
