Americans across multiple states are being urged to conserve water as drought conditions intensify, reservoirs shrink, and utilities issue increasingly urgent warnings. At the same time, a different kind of consumer is quietly demanding unprecedented...
I’m talking about when aquifers don’t refill, their data centers can’t operate, the cattle have long since died of dehydration, and Midwest is a dust bowl again. The US hasn’t had anything close to an African level drought/famine, starving and thirsty masses get real nasty.
People blow their minds,
They choose to resign,
This deformed society is part of a design,
It’ll never go away,
It’s in the cards that way,
The masses of humanity have always,
Always had to suffer
Bad Religion, Suffer, title track 1988
😒 yeah. We are, we will. I’ve known that since before I found a song that summed my feelings up a half generation before I could.
But also, knowing it’s coming, knowing what it will entail, knowing it’s probably going to suck… what are we up to to limit that?
Agreed. Different environments, different “plagues”. I’ve never seen grasshoppers hit that threshold where they go locust mode, but I’ve seen Anabrus simplex (Mormon crickets) so thick they turn modern highways into slip’n’slides.
Their plan is: they fuck around, and let the rest of us find out.
Our lack of drinking water is a sacrifice they are willing to make.

True but I think we will suffer more

We probably will. That’s how it always works.
They take all the risks, we pay the consequences for those risks.
we are just missing the plague of locusts that africa and ME has. ours went extinct apparently, because we destroyed thier habitat.
