In this room there are eight people, spread out over the various areas where there is floor. There are ways to get from one floored area to another. Jumping and what not.
In this room is a food and water dispenser accessible to all. It will regenerate and supply the eight people with food and water indefinitely.
The sun travels over head, as per usual. Weather and seasons and all that shit. WORK WITH ME!
If the room was left alone... All would be good. The eight people would survive - thrive even.
Until...
The people, having nothing better to do, started fucking. A lot. Tons. Bow chikka bow wow.
So, instead of eight people, now there are 456 people in this room with just 25% of it being able to have people on it.
One guy went and made the food and water dispenser a damn vending machine... And it is about to pop a gasket trying to feed all these people...
People are stressed, because they now have to work for the asshole who made the dispenser a vending machine so they can eat... So they start smoking. The cigarette provider is making bank and people are working for him so they can smoke... and eat... And all that eating leads to a lot of shit. Not a metaphor.
So... you have 456 people (and growing) smoking, stressed, in a small room filling up with shit, with a limited and dwindling food source... and someone says, "*cough*Hey... Is it getting *cough* hotter in here?"
The two people, who run the cigs and food, and have people fanning them religiously, say "No. No it is not, why do you ask?"

The Paris Climate Agreement was entered into by over 190 nations. Including China and North Korea. North Korean leaders, who believe it's SUPREME leader does not shit... even understand, "We are fucking this place up."
Israel and Palestine also are on board. Those two disagree on a few things, but both recognized, "This is all we got. If we don't have this shitty piece of land to argue over... Who are we as a people??? Let us save this world so we may try to eradicate each other from it!"
Nicaragua was a nation who did not sign the accord... ONLY because it was not STRICT ENOUGH!
Syria was another abstainer... Gee... Wonder if there is something going on there a tad more pressing?
So, why did The Failure In Chief leave the agreement entered by the previous, more capable administration?
His reasoning of that it was a bad deal for America has the smallest fraction of credibility.
He was basing it cherry picked findings from a study in May. An example was $3,000,000,000,000,000 (three trillion) drop in gross domestic product. Oh noes!!! That is an ass load of zeros! Of course, that is spread out until 2040, but that is in the small itty bitty print....
The NERA report (aka "Cure For Insomnia"), shows that as a "worst case scenario". 1) No clean energy is there to compensate. 2) Other countries don't play by the rules and American companies relocate to skirt regulations. 3) Industries don't abide by the regulations.
Corporations fucking over the world in order to make a buck? Whaaaaaaa? No! Not that bunch a swell guys!
The report also, maybe on purpose, does not talk about the gains... like... Being able to breathe? Maybe that could go in a "Pro" column somewhere? Maybe?
Right... No one has monetized clean air... Yet... As of now, they are just choosing profits over clean air.
Also, 45 said the rest of the world was clapping when President Obama signed the agreement. Yes... It was good for the planet. Failing to see the point of that statement. He then said, "At what point does America get demeaned? At what point do they start laughing at us as a country? We don't want other leaders and other countries laughing at us anymore." (Excellent article by Richard Wolffe here)
With the most respect I can muster, Sir, if you want other countries to stop laughing at us... If you want America to cease being demeaned, then resign. Right fucking now. Please.
Climate change has it's deniers. For example - Old people. Science and old people is a tricky aspect. They don't like uncertainty.
"If'n it ain't 100% well then, by gum, it just inn't reliable! And I hear only 97% of climate scientists agree on this tomfoolery!"
Well, G-dawg... Let me put it this way... 100% of all climate scientists WITHOUT an oil company's hand directly up their rectum, moving their mouths agree that climate change is here. It is now. It has been drastically accelerated by humans. Take your Mylanta, hop on your Rascal, and skedaddle. Thanks for WWII and all...
This week I saw another group of people denying climate change and applauding 45's decision to dry hump the planet. Christians.
"Representative" Tim Walberg from Michigan actually said... these words came from his word hole... this man who is in charge of LAWS spewed forth...
"Well, as a Christian, I believe there is a creator in god who is much bigger than us. And I'm confident that, if there is a real problem, he can take care of it."Like how he fixed Flint, there, eh, Skippy? Is that a real enough problem?
All this flooding and hurricanes, and mega fires... All Gawd's plan... Seriously... Why do people elect these delusional fucks who WELCOME the end times???
I just don't think they like having to deal with an invisible power that actually DOES have an effect on their lives. This is also why there is no Wi-Fi in churches...
It is just too bad they are not willing to put 10% of their money to something that could actually do some good.

I might have done a blog about climate change... I have drank since then... It is getting more difficult to recall. Doesn't change the facts...
Like it or not, we are in that imaginary room.
There is no door. There is no exit.
With NASA getting it's budget slashed, discoveries like Trappist-1, will come with much less frequency. With the education system getting raped, and yes - I mean that word and do not use it lightly, we probably will not see the technological advances needed in order to leave our dying planet.
The only bright spot is in the sky... Microwaving us all. Defrost setting... almost done... *Ding*

Note: Those who know me, know I am not a fan of the Cheese Eating Surrender Monkey language... "We Will Always Have Paris" is the title... And France is actually gaining some moxy in my opinion, Marcon's handshake mockery of 45 was a thing of beauty, and he told Putin to sacre his bleu... Noice!
This was a good one.
