vyelkin posted:in other news a dude dove farther down in the marianas trench than anyone has ever done before and found plastic waste quote:Do you understand the true power of a sovereign? A raw man must kill with his bare hands. The battered warrior, a weapon. The commander, his bellowing voice, the conspirator, a whispered word. But all these pale compared to kingship. A true sovereign need not flex a single muscle in his body, and a hundred men die. A true sovereign may murder without a single impulse, or even intent, sight, breath, or even thought of his murder. He is an idiot indifferent to his own violence. He has sublimed the act of obliteration.

Shima Honnou posted:With how cold this spring has been both in North America and apparently in Europe I wonder if we've finally hosed the Gulf Stream. It's mid-May and too cold to open the windows, and most of the flowering trees just are not flowering even though they should have done it in April. You're experiencing the death throws of the Arctic.

vyelkin posted:in other news a dude dove farther down in the marianas trench than anyone has ever done before and found plastic waste All of human history, since the first tools were made by Homo habilis, has been an unending quest to leave our garbage in new places. First we left our sharp lithic detritus and spent flakes all over South and East Africa, then we left Africa to spread that poo poo to Eurasia, Australia and the Americas. Once we figured out ceramics, we smashed them leaving them all over, including in what is now the Middle of Nowhere deserts of Arizona and the Atacama. Colonialism, Polar explorations, all part of this grand quest, our great drive as a genus, as Homo the Tool User, to leave our poo poo all over.

Dead Beef posted:those bodies stuck on everest are going to confuse future alien archeologists i saw a nature documentary where these walruses were all jam packed on a small island with a mountain because the ice they normally rest on is gone and some of em would slowly, clumsily shuffle their asses up this mountain just to get away from all the other walruses but of course they can't get down, and when they try they just plummet off a cliff and die. instead of dying on the mountain and anyway...aliens might think we are the walrus  esp since mount everest might be the only place cool enough to live one day

There are folks who think that migrating animals will just adapt to migrate through human constructs - like birds taking advantage of cleaned water storage lakes near cities. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxPdPpi5W4o&t=323s quote:Once we deployed these balls, all the birds were gone. collateral damage lmao
