Comment on I'm not bored or anything, it just feels like forever. 60 more years left of my shift on earth...

We have 2-10 years left before we all die due to climate change. If we look at someone’s age in relation to when they die, rather than when they were born, we are all about the same age. This is our retirement, our golden years. Good luck

I’m not gonna be dead in ten years. Climate change is real and a HUGE issue, but I don’t think we only have ten years left.

That’s your call to make. Go ahead and spend your remaining years how you want.

And these are just the overall predictions. I don’t have enough time to link all of the climate disasters that have already happened. Pay attention, look outside. We will be lucky if we get 10 solid years.

You’re like the guys who spent up large because they thought the world would end in 2012 when the Mayan calendar ran out.
It didn’t, and now they’re saddled with debt

Can you define science or empirical evidence? Do you not understand how modern day scientific predictions are different than ancient Mayan ones? That you conflate this is disingenuous at best.
Again, you do you. I’m not wasting the last few years of my life wage slaving and hoping the government and the wealthy will figure out a solution for us common folk when they are building bunkers and exacerbating income inequality. They’ve known since the 70s about this issue. As it currently stands, in present day reality, according to all data we have and all the scientific experts, we are dead and the planet is dead. It was a good time. ✌️
