I… okie dokie.

End of list.

Lmao, no. Dude’s a terrible person from the inside out. I’m not pulling punches on one of the most harmful men in world politics because some snowflake on Lemmy told me to.

Unless you’re being facetious with the slapped ass comment… I can’t quite tell, lol.

Christ, that is one ugly man.

It really doesn’t sound like you know much about Canada or Canadians. Very much a “shit Americans say” comment.

I’m a Canadian but I strongly suspect the US will never fully recover from where they are now. Even just consider international relations - Trump has irreparably damaged America’s relationship with Canada. I seriously doubt Canada will ever fully trust the USA again.

A stark contrast to 10 years ago when we had one of the strongest allied relationships on the planet.

Therapy would be great… if I had money.

Those are some Pennywise eyes!

You’re correct about this. I was just looking it up myself.

There is indeed international maritime law governing vessels, and they must proceed with all possible haste to distress signals. Unfortunately, there are two problems here as I understand the situation:

1. Believe it if you want to or not but - the people operating Zuckerberg’s yacht claim they hadn’t heard or noticed the distress signal at the time
2. The Coast Guard - who, importantly, the stranded skiff had initially contacted - didn’t consider their situation to be worthy of “distress” and thus Zuckerberg and his yachtspeople didn’t violate any regulations or laws

Zuckerberg’s yachtfucks apparently said that they noticed the distress signal eventually, but by the time they had, the Coast Guard had already arranged assistance for the skiff.

So, sadly, for those of us who want to see the billionaires get their comeuppances, I don’t think we’ll see it here.

Fucking hell. Poor animals.

Dennis, what is this enticing bowl of white?

It’d sure be nice if a country (like the US, for example) would step up and lead the way, though. One country outputting nearly half of global emissions is pretty insane when you think about it. Somebody has to set an example and take the lead. The US would be a fantastic country to take on that mantle.

But… we all know they won’t - likely even with a president who isn’t a senile whackjob with dementia. Instead, we see things like the US pulling out of the Paris accord. We’re witnessing an active disinterest in solving this issue.

Hal’s roller skating dance routine for Malcolm lives rent-free in my head.

Sure, I bet we can keep it from getting worse. I’ll be here waiting patiently for some billionaire corpo to decide to do something for the environment over profits while we keep using our paper straws. I might nod off so wake me up when it happens.

What actions are being taken though - by the people who can actually make a difference? Governments are reversing to mining coal. Trump is illegally drilling Greenland for oil. Like, what actions are actually being taken for our great grandchildren?

Many scientists say it’s too late. That’s my point.

We’re talking about human-accelerated climate change here. We’re not talking about naturally-occurring events.

I hate to burst anybody’s bubble but we’ve seen these exact headlines for decades. It’s become increasingly clear that those who can make a real difference with climate change are not interested in doing so.

We’re already irreversibly fucked as a planet.

Watch the White House basically lie in ruin for the next (sane) president to have to clean up. America, y’all gotta figure your shit out down there.

Right? Super strange just telling somebody to disable their notis lol clearly they want them on.

Imagine how this makes sand feel smh thanks Ani
