Moridin920 posted:I lust to pillage those types Effort post on social order post-Full Mad Max All States Go collapse: Raiders of that sort are going to get murked fairly quickly. Apache-style subsistence raiders that aim to never take more than absolutely needed and live off the land the rest of the time will fare better. The War Boy raiders won't really be "raiders" so much as slavers and other sorts who exist because of hierarchical new small states that form around newly enclosed resources, protected by monopoly on force and the very same enclosure of resources, say, water. So like, basically slave-hunter gangs that exist because The Citadel gives some water and guzzoline in exchange for slaves or serving as middlemen in trade or as mercenaries for the sedentary states. These groups may or may not be sedentary. The Vikings are one analogue. Pastoralists and hunter-gatherer-pastoralists may also form in the very few areas amenable to it along with some hunter-gatherer-horticulturists and maybe a few true hunter-gatherer groups. They'll have varying hierarchies, from full anarchic to loosely hierarchical but not states. Think the Diné, Yavapai and Bedouin. You may also get some hierarchical states that are pastoral and have mobile capitals, like the Mongols and Buganda. Roving bands of raider warriors will get wiped out by all of the above in short order because they'll be a threat to survival.

Xaris posted:this, but unironically  Rime posted:No, not really. They have high paying jobs, large trucks, and enjoy things like buying guns and trophy hunting. They drop the N word like a hippie says "maaan". They loving love Donald "Our planet is freezing" Trump, and probably served in the military at some point. They unironically share fascist content on Facebook, and their friends like it. They range from 24 to 34 years old, in my experience. e: I have a friend who is in med school and is 1000% insulated from "racial issues" other than "those wacky asians and indians!!!!" and he does not understand the CHUD problem so thank you for succinctly putting this. So goddamn frustrating that he seriously thinks the populous isn't political. gently caress YES THEY ARE BECAUSE THEY HATE YOU AND ANYONE WHO DOESN'T HATE BROWN PEOPLE ugh.

The funny thing about Children of Men is the book is mush about how children give life meaning. The lovable Michael Caine character is instead an edgy childfree strawman openly saying he's glad the world is dying because children make too much noise.

it's not just climate change: air pollution is damaging every organ in our bodies. choice quote: quote:Prof Dean Schraufnagel, at the University of Illinois at Chicago and who led the reviews, said: “I wouldn’t be surprised if almost every organ was affected. If something is missing [from the review] it is probably because there was no research yet.”

Some people don't lke Bacigalupi, which is fine, but I rather liked his book The Water Knife as a post-climate change look at the southwest area. Basically texas and arizona reduced to dust with red cross water supplies and california deploying national guard/building a wall to keep the 'zonies out and tensions arising out of diminishing water and water rights. It's still highly fictionized and some of it was not great, but there's not a whole lot of doomsday fictional CC books.

And thanks to climate change making the weather go wooo, we can't tell which is which anymore hell yeah yeah pretty much, all we know is the equilibrium is gone and there's no predictions and no "normals", just more extremes all over the place. who knows, maybe arizona will have a scorching 130f summer while florida simultaneously floods and gets hit by major hurricanes. last year parts in california here burnt down and were hot tinderboxes, other parts were very mild and got rain a few times. we're overall in a very wet period the last several years but before that was like a 3+ year long drought with dead snowpack and almost no rain all year and things were looking dire. there's no telling when (not if) we'll swing back to a long dry period and if that gets really bad for another 3+ years ontop of ever hottening summers then welp.
