i was initially just gonna tag this with my frequent tag #wearetotallyfucked then leave it at that, but then i had this additional thought...

...yes our society truly is built on petrochemicals, & our realistic chances of being 100% rid of them is slim to bugger all for foreseeable generations, yet... if we can manage to stop using fossilfools as an actual combustion fuel source, for most of our domestic, industry, & transport applications, then by definition our additional CO2 loading of the atmosphere would dramatically fall, thus finally making inroads on our hitherto unbroken rise in accelerating our #climatecrisis . so after all i don't think this article is as depressing as first blush

ofc, we won't actually DO any of this, coz humans basically are fuckheads

I tried to live for 24 hours without using oil-based products. It was ridiculously impossible

The world’s economy is completely dependent on petrochemicals. Is there any way to avoid them?

Billings, Josh - Josh Billings' Farmer's Allminax, 1874-11 (1874 ed.) | WIST Quotations

He who suspekts everyboddy, should be watched by everyboddy. [He who suspects everybody should be watched by everybody.] See Johnson (1763). In his 1879 Allminax (April), Billings provided a similar adage: Whenever yu cum akrost a man who distrusts everyboddy, yu have found one whom it is safe for everyboddy…

Big Oil Is Seeking Protection From “Leftist Legal Crusades”

At the top of the fossil fuel industry’s legislative priorities are sweeping protections against liability for the climate disasters caused by their extraction processes. Republicans in Congress are doing their best to help out.

do tell how you reconcile your conscience wrt the conflict of fatuous frivolous discretionary travel by a means that burns one of the most polluting fuels on the planet, with the catastrophic acceleration of our human-induced climate crisis? do you have any sense of morality at all? is it all just me me me, for humans like you?

Why packing for a cruise ship is different to other holidays

Sure, things are simple when you only have to unpack once – but that’s no help if you forget the basics.

I thought being scammed once made me immune to it happening again. I was wrong

These dodgy operators are very good at the shady work they do: they crank up the terror, drown out the logical part of your brain and then move fast

this problem is technically comprehensible to me, but nonetheless infuriating

abc.net.au/news/2026-04-22/vic…

just imagine if the strayan great unwashed had not spent decades supporting vacuous political arseholes lying in fossilfool beds, & instead actually acted on the science then. just think how so many of our contemporary problems would have been reduced, if not damn near obviated, had simply straya not continued to be the stupid country

a specific remark to the article -- wtf are the poor bastards supposed to do right now, who can't get warm, or cooking done, etc, til some indeterminate future time when the infrastructure catches up? they've done the right thing, & the ooniverse now punishes them for it. let no good deed go unpunished.

The growing problem stopping Melbourne residents using their microwave

A power company warns that growing electricity demand is creating an undervoltage problem, as Victoria's infrastructure struggles to keep up with the transition from gas.

if the trip is discretionary, for mere jollies, then you're a fuckhead

My flight to Europe is cancelled. I’m nervous about accepting the replacement

In the end, I will either find an alternative route or defer my trip. But I feel for those who don’t have a choice – the flight attendants.
