Phone books were useful at one point, though less so for individuals.

Not saying you’re wrong but it reminded me of a moment when I was a kid. I was all of five years old when I got lost in rural Arizona. I was visiting my grandparents and my cousin and I went out looking for turtles after a monsoon the night before. I got separated from my older cousin and then lost. I wandered around for hours until I found the main road that led through a nearby small town. I managed to hitchhike to the local trading post where the clerk managed to find my grandparents phone number to let them know they had found me.

They were sometimes useful. Also, they were great for prank calls.

I hear the headless body of Spiro Agnew is on the shortlist.

“Look, Laura Loomer is not affiliated with the Trump campaign. She said something about curry in the White House that I first read about this morning actually, because I knew that you would ask me about it…” [emphasis my own]

These guys are terrible liars. Between him and Trump, they sound like they have no idea what is going on.

Goodness, this could be my cat. I have a torty named Moosie that looks very similar.

Thank you for the response. This isn’t my field of study but my Astronomy professor back in college pointed to Venus as a possible outcome for Earth if we continued with our current emissions. I know atmospheric CO2 levels in the past were much higher on Earth but I’m truthfully not sure I understand what mechanisms Earth has that Venus lacked. I’m not trying to argue the point; really, I just want to learn.

Lastly, I love your username. It sounds delightful.

Yes, absolutely, you are right. The comments in this thread and elsewhere are that Earth will be fine. Our current trajectory doesn’t bode well for that assertion.

Venus would also like a word.

Edit: For anyone curious, I’m referring to Venus as a potential model for runaway greenhouse effect.

I hear you and admit that I did misunderstand your point. Thanks for chiming in and clarifying. For the record, I didn’t downvote you and I’m sorry you’re being misunderstood overall.

You can’t blame kids for trying to get away from camps if they’re abusive.

For anyone not aware of what goes on in some of these camps, give this a read: https://elan.school/

Trigger warning.

Well then, good news. It’s a suppository!
