Tradition! Tradition!


This is really against the RAI if you ask me.


What's the RAI?


"Rules as intended", I think. The phrase seems to be used mostly in tabletop gaming.


Well, better late than never.


tldr no


What? Again?


Your children will die unless you lobby your representative to listen to this person. This shit is realer than any other crisis in the history of mankind and we face extinction if we do not fight it now. Pay attention.


I don't think inaction causing extinction is certain. All extinction scenarios involve unproven positive feedback loops like the clathrate gun hypothesis. It seems to me quite likely that billions of humans will survive in the remaining habitable regions, even if the fight for those regions turns into World War 3. Really it's not much worse than the Cold War-era nuclear war scenarios.


Oh not much worse than nuclear war. Carry on then.


They'll die even if I do, assuming you are right and you think this problem is as large as you say it is. Our representatives care little about us.


Maybe y'all try to make lectrity outta thin air.


You mean like wind turbines do?
