Alright, so we pump energy into a chaotic system and obviously the extremes will get more exteme. Stronger hurricanse, colder hurricanse and snap freezes, deeper floods, wet bulb events further north than you think possible, whatever. This is the known unknown.

I am existentially afraid of the unknown unknowns. At what point do the phytoplankton I'm currently breathing the poop of have a mass extinction event? All of human civilization is about to drown on dry land and I spend 5 days a week maintaining software that charges people for turning on their lights.

I crave death I crave oblivion death to america death to capitalism death to me.

Well no, no, you’re right though.

But say an asteroid was headed to earth and we knew it was going to come and kill everyone in 25 years. Would you change your life? I think most people wouldn’t.

But plenty do and already have. If that’s the life you want, go for it. Fuck working.
