A climate crisis! Global famine coming soon!

It'll be like the Mad Max series with fewer cars and more cannibalism. (You think I'm kidding?)

The reward waiting for you at the end is crippling debt.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Only if you get student loans. Just don't go to college! It's not like the world needs doctors, scientists, engineers, dentists, teachers, meteorologists, judges, librarians, well-educated citizens in general... Oh wait.

[–] daggermoon 8 points 1 day ago

I can't even eat the ramen any more. I found out I have celiac.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Also, more ramen in your thirties.

[–] ickplant 9 points 1 day ago (2 children)

At least in my 40s I can afford to add an egg.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

Look at Mr. Moneybags over here with his egg.

[–] Fredselfish 3 points 1 day ago

Dude in my 40,s can't afford the egg. It getting rough out here.

Hold up, am I crazy or is this showing that the temperature at the North pole was 15 °C in January? What's the source of the picture? What were usual readings in previous years?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think it means 15C warmer than before the industrial revolution

[–] eatCasserole 5 points 1 day ago

It looks like it's relative to the 2004-2013 average, actually. Note the years listed at the bottom.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

I think it's showing it's 15 degrees warmer than normal, if I read it right.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

Climate change waits for no one.

[–] andros_rex 29 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

There was hope then at least - eating ramen and working three jobs because the degree and the work was supposed to make things better. But then hitting your thirties and realizing that the mistake you made wasn’t being born wealthy.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago

It gets worse when you get a kid, cant sleep at night, and a house mortgage for life. Just figured I would cheer you up. :p

Don’t forget the oligarchy!

They're gonna be wishing ramen was as cheap as it was when they were young.

Put avovado toast into ramen with eggs, now say goodbye to ever owning your home.

This is why you can't afford a house

You're right - the climate is a-changin'!

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago

I didn’t even get that fun shit. I became disabled and bedridden at 20.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 day ago

Well at least you get to retire eventually.

Lol. JK. You're going to be a wage slave until you die, probably during the climate change induced famine.

[–] Nurse_Robot 40 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I have terrible news about your 30s...

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I just hope my 40s suck less. I’m almost stable and my country is probably going to collapse. And then the ecosystem around us will follow suit, yaaaay…

I have some people to jointly buy land with, and a zero waste, zero emission farm plan in place to weather the storm. Maybe. If we can all get our shit together super soon.. it won’t be much but it’ll be ours and we’ll defend it fiercely. It’s the American way.

We’ll definitely be a local stop on the railroad, though, and I already know others who will do the same.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

In your 40s your body begins to break down. Often your mind slows down too. And you'll have people relying on you, whether at work as a senior colleague, your children, your aging parents/other relatives, your friends whose bodies have begun to break down, or whatever responsibilities/opportunities you've taken in your various communities.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

None of those things apply to me so I’m still hopeful. :)

[–] hOrni 24 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Shitty? Those were the best times, it's all downhill from there.

[–] SolidShake 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

This is so true for real. When I was in my 20s it's true, I had ramen almost every day, but I also had a constant friend group I was always around. I never went to college but I was close with highschool friends for years, until mid to late 20s. Then it just... Stopped.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

The crazy thing is, when i was in my 20s, it was a common joke on the internet that people in their 30s or earlier don't have friends. I always thought that is some post rafe comic le funny meme. I had so many friends that i saw daily. I had too many friend groups, too much things to do with them. At the end of my 20s it suddenly stopped. It wasn't that one friend after the other had a change in lifestyle or whatever, but now getting 4 friends together at the same time, seems utopian. One of my friends got married and like 6 of us met to have a good time together. Everyone was like: why don't we do that more often? We should do that again. That was over 2 years ago and we in fact did not do that again.

What's this "waiting" bullshit?

[–] frickineh 14 points 1 day ago

It's chill, we're all gonna die of cancer from all the microplastics in our brains anyway. Or in Civil War II or something. Whatever.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

That's why I spent my 20s doing drugs and banging everything that glanced in my general direction.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I am also no longer allowed at the zoo

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

I never was. As a precaution.

[–] FlyingSquid 1 points 1 day ago

Or the art museum?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago
[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 day ago

And more ramen!

[–] random_character_a 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

All that ramen is probably imported from Asia, so pound for pound quite an environmental travesty.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

Actually a lot of it is made in the US. Shin Ramen, for example, is from Korea, but all the packages I've seen are made in a factory in California.

The same logistics and industrial development that allows you the luxury of studying to increase the value of your work output, the luxury of ennui that gives you philosophical dread on your idle hours while others would kill to be on your not-working-in-cobalt-mines shoes while being fed and safe enough to sleep, all this while having thrived up to an age that for most of human history has basically senility, is the one that gives you the climate change

You know what you need to do.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

allows you the luxury of studying to increase the value of your work output

I've always wanted more value from my work output! Or contentment and self-actualization, it was one or the other.

luxury of ennui that gives you philosophical dread on your idle hours

I'm assuming you mean that those idle hours are the luxury? Because I'm pretty sure tedium and boredom existed in the fields and cobalt mines long before it got a fancy French name.

others would kill to be on your not-working-in-cobalt-mines shoes while being fed and safe

Relative privation?

Also, is eating ramen being fed? Is it safety if you're one illness and insurance fuckup, or a job loss and six(?) months, away from homelessness?

this while having thrived up to an age that for most of human history has basically senility

Extreme infant and childhood mortality explains most of the short historical lifespans. 30 was never senility.

The same logistics and industrial development... is the one that gives you the climate change.

Every step of towards lessening greenhouse gases brings us closer to the fall of western civilization! Fly more, abolish public transportation, eat only beef, set your AC so low you have to wear a sweater!
