Fantastic thread that speaks to one particular immediate crisis that is, of course, a thread in the larger polycrisis.

The Northern nations have built a way of life that does not have a long-term future. Most in those nations do not want to face that reality. Will do anything to turn away from the truth of our energy supply and our carbon output.

There's no magic bullet, no wand waving fix. The future will be humans adapting to great difficulties (to put it mildly) as they try to survive in a much hotter, less predictable climate that is limiting stable agriculture.

Given the current moment of the US and the global community, there's a lot that should figure into how we move forward. Nation states have not proven themselves to be peaceful or cooperative, but, rather, the opposite. The same for capitalism.

The kind of revolution we need is deep, one that requires fundamental shifts in relationships and thinking about life on our shared planet.

daily reminder that nate hagens is a #russian #troll #accelerationst #tankie who wants the US to #collapse, invited #jillstein #grifters to his #podcast before the 2025 #election and told people it doesn't matter who they #vote for.

and the #edgelords in the #climatechange #climateCrisis #climate #climateaction movement who still hang out with these people are so low IQ that it should be illegal for them to be on the internet.

How Big Tech Killed Online Debate

https://sopuli.xyz/post/40749348

Is there anything on the internet that is trying to list and document absolutely all of the humanity's problems?
Like an issue tracker, but for whole civilisation instead of just one software project?
Having a structural overview of how problems are interdependent could help with figuring a strategy for solving them.

TIL about Kessler Syndrome compliments of NASA

Quote 0:
Currently, there are over 27,000 tracked pieces of debris, each larger than 10 cm, and millions of smaller, untraceable fragments orbiting Earth. Even a tiny fragment, moving at speeds of up to 28,000 kilometers per hour, can cause catastrophic damage.

Quote I:
Sudden Alarm?

In recent years, space activity has surged dramatically. Companies like SpaceX are launching thousands of satellites for mega-constellations aimed at providing global internet access. While these projects are revolutionary, they also contribute significantly to space congestion. According to Dr. Vishnu Reddy, a planetary scientist at the University of Arizona, “The number of objects in space launched in the last four years has increased exponentially.”

In 2009, a wake-up call came in the form of a collision between the defunct Kosmos-2251 satellite and the operational Iridium-33 communications satellite. The impact created thousands of debris pieces, many of which are still orbiting Earth today.

Similar incidents could set off the cascade envisioned by Kessler, leading to a debris belt so dense that space exploration would become nearly impossible.

9/ That in itself would be quite enough for one #collapse essay, but there’s more. Sadly, quite a lot more. Like petroleum depletion, which is why our own fairly-elected (this time) despot has captured a sovereign head of state. Because Venezuela’s reserves of shitty sour heavy crude are looking increasingly attractive now that Texas has largely dried up.

The fracked wells have another decade or so to keep their deplete-and-drill-more game going. Saudi’s supergiants have been pumping for longer than most of us have been alive, and they are getting tired.

Listening to The Beatles remind me to “let it be,” and that got me thinking about #stoicism and my own mental response to the horrors of our age. Yes, things are horrific and we shouldn’t try pretending they aren’t. I will venture a couple of self-replies to explain why, but most you seeing this know most of this all too well, except perhaps about #Covid

P.S. Not the Twitter attention seeker I used to be, but it’s still gratifying to see boosts of these threads and know that a few people are reading what I occasionally take the time to write. Thanks.

Now, this 🧵 on #collapse and dealing with it.
