Hey chat is it a good thing if:

  • there’s a looming energy crisis
  • a bunch of crops are having really low yields
  • there are lakes and rivers completely drying up
  • we’re about to enter a super El Niño
  • data/fusion centers are polluting/consuming the water/air en masse
  • thousands of people have died in India due to heat before summer’s even officially hit
  • and there’s another pandemic brewing in Africa just prior to millions of people traveling for the World Cup?

How long do we have before shit starts to break down due to lack of food and water, even in the imperial core? I give it less than a year at best.

    Pretty dang fucked, but I think we’re way more likely to see another round of price gouging on food than actual shortages, at least in the short term. Water is really down to region, some areas are okay, some are already depleted but won’t realize it for a few years.
