The last 3 years have been the hottest in around 125,000 years.
CO2 levels are their highest in MILLIONS of years.
But most people have no idea this is happening, let alone what it means for our kids’ futures.
Our politics & media have failed our children. We should be furious.

Well I hope freedumb Libertarians are happy now. They were celebrating eliminating inspections so they don’t have to spend $35 every year on a sticker, so now they’re free to drive around with bald tires and no brakes. Yay freedumb!!
Maybe if they weren’t such children they would have been able to anticipate some of these consequences. I can’t speak for all poor people, but I would rather spend money on an inspection sticker and necessary safety equipment for my car than have it impounded by the police and have to pay a tow yard daily storage fees if I don’t have the $ to tow it home.
I’m almost positive we still have a law here that says if you abandon a vehicle to a tow yard because you can’t afford to get it out they can suspend your drivers license.
If the police get their way they’ll be able to impound your car on the side of the road based on their judgment. But hey at least you won’t have to get it inspected every year!

"One of the stranger consequences of the UK’s asymmetrical governance arrangements is that England is rendered invisible, even though it is by far the largest part of the state. If UK governments of various hues are unwilling ever to name England and, indeed, behave as if the very existence of its English electorate is something to be ashamed of, it’s perhaps little wonder that English identifiers don’t feel they matter or have a voice."

Reimagining Campus Life: Integrating #Solarpunk Principles for a Sustainable Future
by Lily Packo, March 19, 2025
About the author: "Lily Packo (she/her) is an Indigenous undergraduate student in her third year of Anthropology at the University of British Columbia’s Okanagan Campus. She is passionate about exploring the connections between culture, environment, art and sustainability, with a focus on how these intersections support #Indigenous conservation efforts and #sovereignty. Her studies center on understanding how #TraditionalKnowledge and contemporary approaches can work together to promote #EnvironmentalStewardship and strengthen Indigenous communities."
Excerpt: "Universities and colleges often serve as microcosms of society, where innovative ideas, environmental consciousness, and social justice movements take root. By integrating Solarpunk principles into student living, we can create environments that are not only sustainable but also foster collaboration, well-being, and community-driven change. Assessing areas like UBCO and Academy Way, there seems to be a void of self-sustaining community development. Speculative fiction can provide places such as Academy Way with a community-based and collaborative plan focused on sustainability and innovation.
"In a world often dominated by dystopian narratives of environmental #collapse, #authoritarian regimes, and #TechnologicalOverreach, Solarpunk emerges as a counterbalance, offering a hopeful and actionable alternative. Rather than resigning to the idea that the future must inevitably be grim and disastrous, Solarpunk challenges this assumption by presenting a vision of a world where humanity has chosen #sustainability, #ethical technological advancement, and #resilient, #SelfSustainingCommunities. More than just an aesthetic or literary movement, Solarpunk represents a framework for real-world change that can carry forward through generations."

The September #Inkscape challenge is to
DRAW A ROBOT 🤖
Get your creative gears in motion. Draw any kind of robot .... scary, funny, cute, a toy, a house appliance .... anything robot.
Let's share ideas and techniques to better understand Inkscape or learn to make it do things you didn't think were possible. Don't hesitate to ask for suggestions. There may be an easier way and there's always someone to help.

GPT-5 Is Doing Something Absolutely Bizarre
On a close read, GPT-5's writing is strange and nonsensical — at least to a human. Other chatbots have a very different take.Noor Al-Sibai (Futurism)
“ Exactly why that's happening is opaque, but a reasonable theory might be that to build GPT-5, OpenAI used other AI models to evaluate large numbers of potential outputs to fine-tune how it handled various types of tasks. As a result, it ended up producing ornate text that makes little sense to a human — but is perfectly calibrated to please another AI model.”
Truly, the big brains in Silicon Valley intend to automate the very worst aspects of humanity.
This is what they are going to replace humanity with in order to rule over them.
A dim reflection of themselves.
Every day I listen to a little bit of Tolkien audiobooks. What strikes me about his characterization of dark Lords exactly fits how Silicon Valley billionaires operate.
They corrupt everything they touch.
everything that they do is a perverse mockery of the real thing
“ In other words, GPT-5 "has been optimized to produce text that other LLMs will evaluate highly, not text that humans would find coherent." Provocatively, he suggests that AI models now "share a 'secret language' of meaningless but mutually-appreciated literary markers, defend obvious gibberish with impressive-sounding theories, and sometimes even become MORE confident in their delusions when given more compute to think about them."
…
Tell me how this doesn’t sound exactly like Elon Musk or Peter Thiel and their own gibberish output.
They are setting up a world for their own dimwits, love and adore and highly rate the output of their other dimwits.
Somehow, these men are dictating our future
If humanity destroys itself via climate inaction (all signs point to this), then it's quite conceivable these LLMs may survive in some fashion. If they do, its fascinating to consider this might be our legacy for some future version of ourselves to ponder over...or some extraterrestrial race to discover.
How are they going to survive without the global supply chain that is made impossible by extreme weather.
The climate in action is the decision making power of the richest people in the world who profit from burning the world to the ground.
I was thinking more about the LLMs ("AI") themselves...not the human beings.
But your point certainly stands.
Yes, it’s so easy to lose sight of the fact that the data centers are monstrosities of modern supply chains. You would actually have to have a robotic force capable of designing and building infrastructure, but that infrastructure is still subject to the second law of thermodynamics.. high temperatures make the environment chaotic, and you cannot predict for any length of time what operating conditions will exist.
It is a hot mess, literally

Spoiler: Best wel, het interesseert ze gewoon geen reet.
"Gerekend met de kiesdeler van de laatste verkiezingen komt dat neer op 2,3 miljoen Nederlanders die blijven stemmen op een partij die niets geleverd heeft. Een partij die klimaatbeleid onzin vindt. Een partij die alleen geeft om de veiligheid van vrouwen en lhbtqi-mensen als ze daar moslims of asielzoekers mee kan bashen."

Una curiositat sobre la flotilla que ja navega rumb a Gaza:
Un dels velers que integren l'expedició és el Bribón, la mateixa embarcació que havia estat utilitzada pel Borbó sènior, el campechano, durant molts anys.
En aquest cas, el Bribón serà capitanejat per Jordi Coronas (sí, exacte, Coronas 😆), que és regidor de Barcelona per Esquerra Republicana de Catalunya.
A vegades el destí té aquests girs inesperats.
