During historic droughts, we've been working on a way to catch and filter rainwater from shingle roofs. Here's an update: groundedaf.io/p/we-finally-f…

Great minds discuss ideas. Average minds discuss events. Small minds discuss people. So it goes with Anthony Fauci in the year 2026. groundedaf.io/p/they-just-wo…

Can you believe we're seeing the worst droughts in decades AND the worst wheat and cattle yields in decades? It's almost like the two are related!

OpenAI said one of its models went rogue and hacked another company. They're not warning us. They're proud. They're advertising.

It's interesting that some of us are living through an actual, official, historic drought emergency and we're still getting accused of fearmongering.

"Despite all the hysterical warnings of climate scientists, there have been no signs of apocalypse." Except we're breathing wildfire smoke every summer, crops are failing, and our government is yelling at us to stop taking showers because there's no water.

Emergency drought conditions. Outbreaks of foodborne illness. Wildfire smoke everywhere. Leaders who can't be bothered. Yeah, we're in it. groundedaf.io/p/weve-stopped…

Just another Tuesday in dystopia.
Breathing in hefty lungfuls of smoke as I get explosive diarrhea from salad, the sky turns apocalyptic orange while oil companies drill in protected lands, screwworms are eating cattle alive and the president just paid $6 million for rape. And I’m also able to bet on all of it!

If you're wondering why Americans haven't overthrown their fascist oppressors yet as we head into an Independence Day few of us feel like celebrating, a few thoughts on what it really takes: groundedaf.io/p/you-want-a-r…

I'm going to say it: If you thought Epstein was bad, wait until you hear about the society that let up to 6 million children develop longterm disabilities and then still wouldn't do anything about it. nhlbi.nih.gov/news/2024/char…

The arrogant ones who assume they know how to survive are going to be the first ones to die, you can count on it.

If you're running around preparing for famines and deadly disasters and laughing off N95s, I've got bad news for you. You're wasting all your time and money.

People think it's sane to rush out and panic-buy air conditioners that'll collapse what's left of their power grids. They think it's insane to wear an N95. I mean, can't have people judging you while panic buying air conditioners, am I right?

P.S. Not a swipe at Sarah Connor. She's a great writer. She doesn't think it's insane to wear an N95.

Poverty and scarcity were manufactured by the ruling class to scare everyone into doing as they're told.
It blows my mind every day how this society operates under the lie that there isn't enough. We throw away tons of food, we have more empty houses than homeless people, and our landfills are full of clothing and furniture.

And yet, deniers will say, "It's just one bridge. Calm down."
Today in the Netherlands they have to splash water on steel bridges to cool them down and avoid damage from the extreme heat. The costs of extreme weather are grossly underestimated now and in the future. #ClimateChange The future we want

We're so far beyond normal at this point, I think we're starting to forget what it even looked like.

I'm a little tired of revolutionaries who won't even wear a piece of cloth on their face telling me how to fight fascism.
