Blippy the Wonder Slug 🇩🇪<p>I keep getting this crazy bad feeling that June 14 is very much not going to be a good day in Америка. The well publicized "No Kings Day" protests coinciding with Puppyfucker's parade... well... it doesn't take a Nostradamus. </p><p>I keep imagining something like Kent State, only exponentially worse, and "everywhere", not just California.</p><p><a href="https://ieji.de/tags/Cassandra" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Cassandra</span></a></p>
Blippy the Wonder Slug 🇩🇪<p>In all my models recently, in broad strokes, it's going to get much worse before it gets any better. </p><p>Even if we cut emissions to 0 NOW. *snaps fingers*</p><p>By 2050 or so, civilization/cities/supply chain will be collapsing "everywhere". A lot of people will be dying of hunger related issues. Crop failures will be the norm.</p><p>In a way, I'm lucky. I'm old, and likely to die before it gets REALLY bad.</p><p>You kids? Good luck.</p><p>I must stress again that my math is questionable, at best.</p><p><a href="https://ieji.de/tags/Cassandra" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Cassandra</span></a></p>
Blippy the Wonder Slug 🇩🇪<p>In my models, major crop failures will start happening before the end of this decade, and the 30s are going to see some hungry times.</p><p>Crops with very specific environmental requirements are already suffering.</p><p>🙄 To top it off, with fascism on the rise, the best I can hope for is not to be dragged off to a camp before I die on my own.</p><p>I must stress again that my math is questionable, at best. </p><p><a href="https://ieji.de/tags/Cassandra" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Cassandra</span></a></p>

Jasmine🍁🧡💛 💚💜 💙 🤎 🖤 🤍<p>9 days into this shit show and I'm still waiting for the Nat-C apologists in my life to pull their heads out of the sand. I can shout, and rant, share media, break down analyses, and direct folks to official reports from Gov't Commissions... and STILL people are "undecided" about voting for the <a href="https://beige.party/tags/CanPoli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CanPoli</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/CPC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CPC</span></a> <br>Like, Poilievre's voting record against women and LGBTQ rights going back 20 years! Nothing. No reaction. Didn't bother to read it.<br>The prospective PM of our nation and leader of the CPC in spite of himself is a 4chan whiner who never grew up, coddled by the party since he was 14, and so broken up about his parents separation he's decided to blame his dad for being <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Gay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gay</span></a> and his mother for being a <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Woman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Woman</span></a>. He'll see others suffer out of pettiness rather than go to therapy and move on. Try helping someone out with all that power and privilege, just once in your miserable life PP!<br>Fuck me, being a woman in this world is to be <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Cassandra" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Cassandra</span></a> on repeat. Shut down, talked over, or derided. <br>The US has devolved into a fascist autocracy, and debating the modern use of "Nazi" is missing the point!<br>How many broken families, terrified children, or dead women does it take to see the THREAT.<br>Day 9/<br>The last guy took 53 days... that may have just been due to the pace of typists and print at the time.<br>I hope to see all my neighbors and neighbours fight back. Little ways or big, don't let the fuckers win. And VOTE when you can. Volunteer and work at your local voting stations, get involved at every level, fill your local committees and teams.</p><p>We can all see the bigoted trolls trying to steer our systems hard right, it seems they've nothing else to do but hate and interfere. Stand up and steer true. We're all on this flaming dinghy together.</p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/HumanRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HumanRights</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/LGBTQ" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LGBTQ</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/EducateAgitateOrganize" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EducateAgitateOrganize</span></a> <br><a href="https://beige.party/tags/FuckFascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FuckFascism</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/NeverPoilievre" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NeverPoilievre</span></a></p>
