  • Although i think you’re right, you too where once a kid.

    And. Tell me. What did you do with your money back then? Everything you bought was well thought out? You still use day to day everything you bought back then? Or where you just a child and did you buy candy, fireworks, some comics, that game console you sold 2 years later for not even half the price, that cheap rc car which broke after 1 day?

    Its a slippery slope. Just because something doesn’t have value to you does not mean the same applies to someone else.

    Stuff like this can give kids a certain social standing in the brutal world of the classroom. That’s something to consider also, group pressure, wanting to fit in. The need to be part of the group.

    Allowance is a learning experience. My son did the same, for years bought only fortnite skins with his allowance. Like you i warned him against it. But i never forbid it. He’s 14 now and regrets it.

    He doesn’t buy fortnite skins anymore. That’s the end goal, isn’t it? To learn and move on?






  • Vandalism is always bullshit and a gargantuan dick move.

    Especially against stuff owned by a private person. Someone saved for that or worse: took out a loan for it. That car represents a year, 2 years or even more of work.

    There is nothing what justifies it.

    I dont like [billionaire]. Lets destroy the property of [random dude] who probably also doesn’t like [billionaire].

    It’s bullshit.

    I dont like trump. Just give me your adress so I can destroy your home. What do you say? You dont like Trump either, you only laughed once during the dumb bullshit of the apprentice? There you have it! Let me wreck all your shit!

    You can explain it away all you like but its still bullshit.





  • Just watch that xkcd graphic my dude. Somebody else already linked it. It makes the issue very clear and is quite scientifically based.

    Yes, everything you said is factually true. That doesn’t mean your interpreting it all correctly. We not just accelerated it, we where strolling along the path of planetary heating and then decided to step aboard the Starship Enterprise and screamed: “MR SULU WARP FACTOR NINE, STAT!”

    We’re fucking with systems (planetary weather patterns) we can’t comprehend. And to solve it we again fuck with that system but now not by adding energy (heat) but by removing energy from it (wind, radiation)

    I think both will have issues. But for now removing lots and lots of energy from the system will greatly benefit us.

    In the end it will always come down to population control or going interplanetary as a species.

    More people on this planet, in this system will always mean more heat. Remove the excess from the system and it will find its equilibrium again.

    But… Removing the excess sounds nice but isn’t. Especially when you are deemed to be the excessive one.

    You want to know where global warming can lead to? Look no further then Venus.
