Wait till you find out what is going on with the permafrost at the Siberian flats, Alaska and elsewhere. If you freeze stuff in a refrigerator, the power goes out, well all that decomposing stuff will give off gasses and those gasses are way more potent as a greenhouse gas than c02.
Whats not only climate change fault. But also poor planning of the city’s architecture.
My sister is in Asheville. She now has no car and just got electricity back on 2 days ago.
She says that her home will not have access to water for 3 months.
Shit’s fuckin’ bad.
I’m sure disbanding the EPA and NOAA will fix the weather.
if there’s no one reporting on how bad things are, then things won’t be as bad. that’s how we stopped covid after all
Sure there just won’t be any survivors because the storm wool come people won’t be prepared
Yeah, hearing similar things from others; it takes a really long time to fix the utilities when the roads are washed out all over the place, and need to be repaired to even bring heavy equipment in to many locations.
Floods like this happen all the time
And if they don’t it’s still a very natural thing to happen
And if it’s not, it’s a cycle and it’s been the same since historic times
And if it’s not then you shouldn’t build near water
Lol: someone reported this comment as ‘criminally wrong’ because they didn’t get your sarcasm
Damn the one time I don’t put a /s
I honestly didn’t expect anyone not to get it, that’ll show me.
Just to help for anyone else wondering it’s a modified version of the narcissist’s prayer.
i see the sarcasm, but now for a real question:
we are already seeing the things they warned us about years ago happening now. further unrealized warnings call for large habitat destruction. we could see large extinction events. the same people that bury their heads in the sand are the ones who stand in the way of legislating solutions to mitigate this. entire species of animals that are completely innocent could die because these ignorant people will block solutions. what do we do?
Ashville NC which is kinda the epicenter of where the worst of the reporting is coming out of is 250 miles from the coast and located in the mountains. This isn’t just “yeah you built in Florida you signed up for extreme weather events” this is “the fucking Appalachian mountains flooded!” This should be the wakeup call the climate change is coming for everyone and will make more extreme weather events for everyone
Maybe they should have built on higher ground if they didn’t want to get flooded. Like ISS modules.
Fall 2036: Breaking! Freak hurricane floods ISS!
Quick, someone contact Randal Monroe, we need a what-if for this. I think we’re going to need some water from somewhere though.
New video where the Dutch take over the ISS?
And if you didn’t build near water, yeah you did.
And if you did, well then just move.
i heard aquaman is buying flooded houses to rent out to the fishies
GOP: “it’s not climate change. it’s democrats controlling the weather”
also GOP: “god is in control of everything!”
All this is doing is proving that god is an asshole.
Except the GOP will absolutely double down and claim that everyone who got hit did something to deserve the suffering.
Or a test from god to show their faith.
This is what happens when the Frosty machine breaks and thaws out.
I have eaten there many times at this location.
I hear they’re serving fish now
What, are the staff all in drag or something?
I was just going to say, I drive past this place almost everyday. It’s wild to see Asheville everywhere online. Hope you’re doing well JimmyBigSausage.
I am well. I live out west now. Thank you skinless_corpus. Hope you are well too.
We’re good here. I’m north, off of Merrimon. Still no power. Most of Merrimon seems to have it, except us.
You got your lemmy client on a generator? Or Is therr somewhere nearby that has power
I have cell service.
Yeah but phone needs juice right? I gotta charge mine every 2 days at least. Not tryna harrass just curious
There are places with power. They’re getting it to places slowly. My neighbors have solar. I’ve also been charging in the car.
Can’t speak for the upthread poster, but I keep a portable 20w solar panel around to charge my cell phone and satellite transponder in emergencies.
Hope you get it back soon! I used to live out Beaverdam Rd. and haven’t heard any news from that area. The one person I contacted that lives out there has not responded. :-(
I haven’t gone up that way to see what it looks like. I hope your friend is safe.
With or without scuba gear?

“FAKE NEWS”
- The right-wing, probably
The move they’re making is to claim that Democrats control the weather and inflict storms like this on people. It’s bullshit, like most of their other claims, and really reeks of desperation.
regardless of how much we make fun of them, point out their hypocrisy, etc., these people still have a say in our government. we are witnessing the beginning of the end of civilization. how long are we going to just stand here and watch the world burn?
