🌎 Humanity is truly living its best ClimateCatch22 dream:

The hotter > The more ACs > The more Electricity consumption > The hotter

⛵ Meanwhile the rich take advantage of the rising water levels, MOVING onto superyachts & forever cruiseships (for one last journey).

⛽ Burning through a cool $1 million of diesel per refueling.

Climate collapse is happening in front of our eyes, and these bozos have nothing better to do… sigh.

There are also sailing hipies on 5- 10k boats out there trying to live cheap, living their dreams (and trying to avoid orcas)

Depressingly this is probably a way to ensure better treatment than any care home would give you and may not even cost much more. Have known someone do some cruising in retirement, but the ship was wind powered and made of wood.
