He needs to safeguard the planet for the next generation of his girlfriends

[-] TheAlbatross@lemmy.blahaj.zone 112 points 13 hours ago

The first woman over 25 he's interested in!

[-] iconic_admin@lemmy.world 19 points 12 hours ago

This is all I can think about every time he’s in the news. Yes fuck trump but this guy is weird.

[-] WeirdGoesPro@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 4 hours ago

Is it weird to be attracted to younger women, know that marriage isn’t for you, and then have different relationships within the type that interests you?

Idk, I think he’s just marching to his own drummer rather than being an Epstein.

[-] basmati@lemmus.org 1 points 3 hours ago

It is weird he hasn't matured in any way since his 20s, yes. Usually humans continue to develop throughout their lives, interest in relationships with people significantly younger than you either shows you haven't matured since the rough age they are, or you feel people your own age are far too challenging due to their equal footing and prefer manipulating less mature people.

In context of the hollywood if this is his only wierd thing, he is a saint.

People get bent out of shape over him while hollwyood is literally filled with rapists and pedophiles who mostly went un punished with a few exceptions.

You can hate the pedophiles and rapists and still think what he does is creepy too. It’s not a sliding scale of dickbag where the more awful shit they do the more okay it is to do less awful shit. I can’t believe you got 7 upvotes for that.

[-] granolabar@kbin.melroy.org 7 points 10 hours ago

Him being "creepy" is just your opinion that is shared pretty widely

Rapist and pedos are criminals and get away with it because they are part of the club.

Bringing up that hollywood is pedos amd rapists woll generally get downvotes while two consenting adults using each is apparently an issue worth society's attention.

Thats some whacked out priorities is my point here.

that's a big if. there's no way that a guy who can't go near women with fully developed brains has no skeletons in his closet.

[-] SteveKLord@slrpnk.net 5 points 6 hours ago

He's one of many celebs known for having close ties to Diddy so those skeletons will be coming out of the closet soon enough.

[-] granolabar@kbin.melroy.org 5 points 10 hours ago

Yes i would not bet my farm on it but are there any credible reports?

It seems any time a sex pests gets exposed, everybody in the industry already knew... Diddy, Weinstein, sheen etc

If he gets rid of his yacht, I might actually believe that he cares about climate change.

[-] granolabar@kbin.melroy.org 6 points 10 hours ago

We dont criticize elites consumption... They are our betters so they deserve to have polluting toys.

[-] JGcEowt4YXuUtkBUGHoN@slrpnk.net 4 points 6 hours ago

This is true. Being a job creator is hard work and they should not have to deal with peasant quips and jabs.

[-] Telorand@reddthat.com 49 points 12 hours ago

At first, I was like, "Who cares?"

But as I think about it, people and especially Conservatives, love to use the Wolf of Wall Street as a source of memes and personal meaning. They imagine their heroes are Jordan Belfort "sticking it to the elites," and I have to wonder if they won't feel some kind of cognitive dissonance when they want to use this character in the future, now that DiCaprio has come out against Trump and in support of Harris.

Narrator: They experienced no cognitive dissonance whatsoever, and things remained unchanged.

[-] Telorand@reddthat.com 2 points 3 hours ago

I know you're being facetious, but just to be clear for those in the back (since the internet often misunderstands words), you can experience cognitive dissonance and still continue doing the same things afterwards.

It's just that uncomfortable feeling when you are presented with an idea that conflicts with your beliefs about reality. I fully expect they'll figure out how to get past it with some mental gymnastics, a thought-terminating-cliche, or (gasp) accepting reality and recognizing that the character is fictional.

Climate - truthful information about climate, related activism and politics.

Discussion of climate, how it is changing, activism around that, the politics, and the energy systems change we need in order to stabilize things.

As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades: Graph of temperature as observed with significant warming, and simulated without added greenhouse gases and other anthropogentic changes, which shows no significant warming

How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world: IPCC AR6 Figure 2 - Thee bar charts: first chart: how much each gas has warmed the world.  About 1C of total warming.  Second chart:  about 1.5C of total warming from well-mixed greenhouse gases, offset by 0.4C of cooling from aerosols and negligible influence from changes to solar output, volcanoes, and internal variability.  Third chart: about 1.25C of warming from CO2, 0.5C from methane, and a bunch more in small quantities from other gases.  About 0.5C of cooling with large error bars from SO2.

Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:

Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
