that giant lump is a tricky one, best i can figure is some kind of bacteria to dissolve it and using some kind of bacteriaphage to control that bacteria

There's no real need, once they eat all the trash they'll die off

the environmental doom has been forecasted for ever as results of overpopulation and terraforming, etc. The end result is it can either be viewed/announced as a dooms day scenario, i.e. no one will give a shit because it's to big of a problem. Or it can be broken down into small parts that can be fixed. Easy fixes such as removing farming subsidize and farming price floors could easily free up many american regions to be returned to nature. Opening up trade barriers on goods like sugar from cheap tropical world markets so that corn and beet sugar production is slowed and lands are freed for better uses, removing federal subsidize for living in flood zones removes the financial impact of rising waters, etc. All effectively cost nothing (actually saves money) and improve environmental issues. Yet we ignore these things to focus on nonsense like high speed rail

https://www.copenhagenconsensus.com/ has a great approach, i don't agree with everything but the approach is solid. If we could even agree on an approach, then its just a matter of turning a dial on what a human life is worth, or an average 1 iq point increase is worth to quantify and priorities social reforms

2019-03-14 23:40:42 UTC  

the 2 biggest solutions to the issues they complain about they won't even talk about GMOs and Nuclear

2019-03-14 23:41:26 UTC  

and the evolution of lab grown meat ;P

2019-03-14 23:42:49 UTC  

btw we can modify plants to absorb 4x as much carbon from the atmosphere than we do today. Imagine the impact of every yard having super carbon absorbing grass

2019-03-14 23:44:32 UTC  

and crops with double yields means half the land needed to grow them, considering the Amazon is cleared for farming and it's a massive carbon sink GMOs are a game changer

2019-03-14 23:57:39 UTC  

Nah bruh just chop it down to grow organic soy and kale

2019-03-15 00:09:23 UTC  

Lol, the best part is that soy is one of the bigger gmo foods

2019-03-15 00:10:13 UTC  

So the soyboys will be the last "men" standing after all?

2019-03-15 00:12:45 UTC  

I'm the demon goddess of soyboys. I'm what will happen if they get too soy

2019-03-15 00:25:34 UTC  

Are you saying you just ate too much edamame?

2019-03-15 00:27:43 UTC  

I just saw Captain Marvel, and gotta agree with the caller from Wednesday. It wasn't terrible

2019-03-15 00:43:18 UTC  

Wasn't terrible isn't exactly a ringing endorsement for why i should dump a cool Hamilton or Jefferson on seeing it.

2019-03-15 00:44:06 UTC  

I only did it for the canon

2019-03-15 00:44:26 UTC  

I don't want to have a plothole going into Endgame

2019-03-15 00:50:25 UTC  

I've heard it's bland (not *bad*, but still either the worst MCU movie or the second worst after Thor 2), Brie Larson is stiff, cringy, and just generally bad, Samuel L. Jackson's increased presence in the movie is welcome, and that it's not nearly as much of a piece of outwardly feminist propaganda as Brie and the MSM made it out to be

2019-03-15 00:50:56 UTC  

is that pretty much accurate?

2019-03-15 00:51:30 UTC  

They made themselves a problem with releasing it after infinity war

2019-03-15 00:51:43 UTC  

also the No Doubt song is used extremely poorly

2019-03-15 00:52:43 UTC  

They should have left the Capt marvel thing as a cliff hanger and introduce her in endgame

2019-03-15 00:52:50 UTC  

See it being boring and mediocre makes the shilling worse than if it was bad though

2019-03-15 00:53:16 UTC  

At least if it was bad that would provide its own sort of entertainment value

2019-03-15 00:53:44 UTC  

Now that the movie's opening weekend was a success, SJWs have claimed victory and moved on to blasting the Endgame trailer for showing Brie Larson wearing makeup

2019-03-15 00:55:36 UTC  

>marvel movie making money is named a victory for an ideology it had nothing to do with

2019-03-15 00:56:05 UTC  

They
They do know she was already wearing makeup yes?

2019-03-15 00:56:16 UTC  

as if they've based their claims in reality before

2019-03-15 00:56:28 UTC  

no reason to start now

2019-03-15 00:56:47 UTC  

Yeah but I think she has red lipstick in the trailer

2019-03-15 00:57:32 UTC  

As if Chris Evans doesn't wear more makeup than everyone else

2019-03-15 00:57:44 UTC  

Since when is third wave opposed to that?
*cue montage of red lipsticked pop culture critics and angry protestors*

2019-03-15 00:58:20 UTC  

"Are you saying a female super hero can't be perfect without sexualizing her *mouth*?!?!!?!?!?!?!"

2019-03-15 00:58:41 UTC  

seems to be the argument

2019-03-15 00:59:37 UTC  

Brie has some charm

2019-03-15 01:01:04 UTC  

They really could have done away with the sequence with the men yelling at her, that was all just silly

2019-03-15 01:01:38 UTC  

It was almost Fury's movie lol

2019-03-15 01:01:46 UTC  

So we're going to break out the popcorn when the 90s teen chick flicks come back in the reboot cycle, yes? The rage will be fucking top tier

2019-03-15 01:02:52 UTC  

>actress forced to wear braces, giant glasses, baggy clothes. Has messed up hair
>oh no, she's a NERD
>gets a haircut, wears normal clothes
>oh she's beautiful now and everyone loves her

2019-03-15 01:03:00 UTC  

Cue reeeeing

2019-03-15 01:03:31 UTC  

They'll have to pretend that wasn't how every trailer and probably every movie worked
