I'm not trying to convince you on this, but this is my personal belief:

There are runaway reactions already being triggered in the atmosphere that will make the planet hotter and hotter without stopping or slowing down for millions of years. Where are you going to live when the minimum temperature is 60C or higher? A difference of 30C or so is enough to make life impossible for us but isn't even a rounding error compared to the temperature range of a planet. Look at Mars.

Will it happen in the next few centuries or even millennia? No. But those timescales are miniscule compared to the life of the Earth or the lifecycle of an entire species.

We will be the cause of not just climate "change", but pretty much a life reset. Like the asteroid. EVERY animal larger than 10 or so cm will die. There's no way out of it. This is the great filter.

They weren't sure whether Grok will fit into the culture and agenda of the US government but the MechaHitler incident reassured them.

Opossums are lovers, not fighters

Do American kids actually recite an oath to their country EVERY DAY? I keep hearing about that everywhere but it kinds of blows my mind to much for me to accept it as fact.

For context, I went to elementary school in China before I came to Canada, and in both countries the most we've done is sing the national anthem during assemblies.

Phones. I haven't been excited about a phone launch in literally years and I really think they're getting worse by the year. Whenever I have to buy a new phone, I feel frustrated and angry because it's never because I wanted to upgrade to the latest model or anything, it's because my previous phone's glued in battery has degraded so much that it's unusable while the rest of hardware is still perfectly capable of running the latest software (or they arbitrarily decide to ban your device from the latest update meaning you either get a new one or expose yourself to even more cybersecurity risks than having a phone already entails).

There's no meaning to life. We are an accidental self sustaining chemical reaction that has lasted for billions of years. There's no creator, no higher power, nothing waiting for us when we die.

We're also about to go extinct and are way past the window of being able to save ourselves. You and I are among the last humans that will ever exist.

And IMO that's extremely comforting once you actually internalize it. Focus on making you and the people around you happy in the short time you're here, don't worry about the far future because it doesn't matter.

Human CELLS. Not human body.

There are human cells in the lab that have long outlived the person they came from. Look up Henrietta Lacks. That doesn't mean you as a whole will live longer.

The replacement of human workers begins with bipartisan support.

How the country should be run, including what kinds of people are on the chopping block.

There's a communist party of Israel? Are they actually communist?

IMO, simple fact that the majority of drunk drivers survive accidents that kill their victim instantly shows that no higher power is looking out to punish the wicked or protect the innocent.
