gloom
Channel motto: Life is pain, only potato.
For sharing gloomy poasting, whining, abd complaining. The more apocalyptic or petty the better. It’s always darkest before it turns pitch black.

Am trying really hard not to succumb to misanthropic i-told-you-so schadenfreude from watching normies slowly come to terms with the existential realization that we’ve turbofucked our planet’s climate to irredeemable doom and that no amount of ameritrash eating vegan plastimeat or europoor installing AC will prevent the hunger games once the food chains collapse
I do feel bad for the fauna and flora though, they deserved better planetary stewards

““People see a river drying that they didn’t used to see dry, see mountains that are through their snowpack earlier than they’ve ever seen,” Casuga said. “Maybe some folks can debate why that’s happening, but the reality is there is less water here now.”
With an early heat wave gripping the watershed, the Middle Rio Grande might swell in the short-term, but by the end of April or early May, Casuga said, things will “look very bleak.””

Any places where people are "remixing" or "recombining" ideas today? Or is that all over now?

In a healthy social network, misfortune is less correlated. When one person struggles, others in the community support them.
But ‘round here it sure is gloomy for everyone when the markets down

What is the vibe outside the US these days? I am curious to a gloom index with a chance of doom quantified 1-10 for regions both geographic and zeitgeist

I am embracing Fat Bear week: https://www.explore.org/fat-bear-week
Really a great motif for government innovation. We need to not act like manic racoons hungering after efficiency, but rather embrace fat thinking and prepare for the growing dark age
