Unfortunately not. Their fans love this shit, seriously. Remember they're the same fans who went feral during the kneeling demonstrations.

I definitely get it. Ecological fallout keeps me up in cold sweats more nights than not. I'm not sure most people realize how bad it could get, either. All the trees in the world don't make enough oxygen to replace the oxygen we'd need if the cyanobacteria in the ocean dies out, and it's getting perilous with the acidification of the ocean.
That said, I do still see raising a child well as an act of hope for the future. As a parent, that's my most important mission. Could they possibly die/suffer? Yes, but unfortunately that's a risk that all parents run by having a child (and all people run by being alive), no matter what the cause turns out to be. Climate disaster, leukemia, car wreck, it all nets the same thing— pain and suffering for your child. I guess I just take the stance of the Man and the Boy in the Road: we're the ones that carry the fire, and we have to keep carrying it to keep hope and other good things alive.
I'm not saying everyone needs to have kids though! It's rewarding, but this shit is hard as fuck. It's not for everyone. Hell, it wasn't for me until I aged about three decades and did serious work on myself. Adoption is also an option, though harder to do than most people think unfortunately :/
While many beautiful things are passing away, that implies that there aren't still beautiful things here worth fighting for. I see value in bringing new people into the world and helping them love it and it's life like I do. The world needs more people who care fighting for it, not less.

I got a kobo recently and like it a lot. I got the sage because the screen is about the size of a manga page, which I knew I would be reading a lot of. I keep it in airplane mode most of the time and use Calibre to load it up. The system works well for me
Exactly. All the morons planning on buying the 'dip' before EU nations even announce their response to these tariffs are about to hurt themselves in confusion
Hey all, anyone who cares about/is interested in knowing more about the crime committed by the rapist Brock Allen Turner should read Know My Name, written by the woman who was actually assaulted, Chanel Miller.
I highly recommend listening to the audio book, as she reads it herself and has a powerful voice.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Goddamn zing holy shit
I'm unzipped and waiting, bud

Again, the target audience loves that shit. I don't know if you've watched a game lately, but most of the advertisements now are split pretty evenly between:
The NFL is a money-making machine, and it knows its audience. If they're doing this, they know their base will eat it up, and I 100% agree. Many people who haven't tuned in to a game in years will tune in to watch just to show support.
Truly, this is how fucked we are.
