The public thinks climate change is just everything getting slightly hotter. But it's not.
It's war.
It's fascism.
It's famine.
It's a lack of clean drinking water.
It's forced displacement.
It's pestilence.
It's wet bulb events that will kill tens of thousands in a single day.
In essence, it's a complete collapse of the biosphere with resulting societal collapse.

It's what Bernard Woolley from “Yes, Minister” would have called 'one of those English irregular verbs’.

"The billionaire CEO has an ‘unusual' or ‘boundary-blurring' relationship with the female employees; YOU must complete a mandated sexual harassment refresher course; Bob from Accounting has been escorted out of the building.”

@Beedazzled Truly, the Tories are a death cult.

Lynn Conway, computer hardware pioneer (and genius) has passed away. None of her obits do justice to her accomplishments, so here's wikipedia:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lynn_Conway

She pioneered asyncronous execution, VLSI circuit design, and practically the whole modern field of chip design.

She was also a trans woman who -- having been unfairly terminated by IBM -- never stopped fighting for the rights of trans people.

Rest in power, Lynn.
